Manual of product 3TS974B
Editorial note
The Balay 3TS974B washing machine stands out with its 7 kg washing capacity, ideal for families looking to handle a large amount of laundry at once. Its maximum spin speed of 1200 rpm ensures well-spun laundry, thus reducing drying time. Additionally, the delayed start feature of up to 24 hours offers valuable flexibility for scheduling wash cycles according to your needs. The integrated LED screen and intuitive controls (Rotary and Touch) make navigation and use of the appliance easy. However, there are some drawbacks to consider. The spin noise level of 72 dB may be perceived as high, which could be disruptive when used in a quiet environment. The lack of features such as the automatic dosing system and the Rinse Plus function limits washing efficiency and user comfort. Furthermore, with a weight of 69.2 kg, the machine can be difficult to move or install, especially in tight spaces. Finally, although the energy efficiency class B is acceptable, it is not among the best on the market, which may lead to higher electricity costs in the long run. In summary, the Balay 3TS974B offers a pleasant user experience, satisfactory performance, and a modern design, but some limitations in terms of features and noise level may influence consumer choice.Score details
