Manual of product 3TI978B
Editorial note
The Balay 3TI978B washing machine stands out with its 7 kg capacity, allowing for a large amount of laundry to be washed at once, which optimizes laundry time. Its adjustable spin speed of up to 1200 rpm ensures perfectly spun laundry, thus reducing drying time. Advanced features like automatic load recognition and the add laundry function enhance the user experience, making it more intuitive and convenient. However, some limitations are worth noting. The lack of Wi-Fi connectivity limits the ability to control the device remotely, which may disappoint users looking for connected management. Additionally, while the 55 L drum is generous, it may not be suitable for large families that need a higher washing capacity. The absence of a load balancing system can also lead to excessive vibrations, affecting the stability of the device. In terms of energy efficiency, the machine has a class C rating, allowing for savings on electricity consumption. However, the maximum washing cycle duration of 184 minutes may seem long to some, making the washing process less time-efficient. The lack of light inside the drum can also complicate checking the laundry in low-light conditions. Overall, the Balay 3TI978B offers good value for money, even if some aspects could be improved to fully meet user expectations.Score details
