You're probably watching this video
in the Beko compact washer because compact laundry is so hard to find.
Miele, Bosch, LG,
Samsung all have no availability as you watch this. However,
is availability enough for you to buy this washer? In this video,
you'll learn the reliability and features of the Beko washer.
As an added bonus,
we'll compare Beko versus the two most popular brands, Miele and Bosch as well.
Let's get started.
First, let's look at reliability based on our internal service stats.
Beko is one of the most reliable brands you can buy.
The whole brand is excellent at 6.85% service in the first year,
compared to 9.97% for the industry in general.
For compact washers, Beko is only 5.2% service in the first year.
So the machine is reliable.
It also has decent features.
Beko is one of the largest compact washers in the industry at 2.5 cubic
feet versus about 2.2 for the other brands.
But you must be careful with that extra capacity because it's from extra depth.
At 26 point 38 inches versus 24 for the other brands.
Still shallow compared to regular laundry,
but could be an issue in certain installations like in kitchen cabinets.
The Rpm spin is 1400, so it dries out your clothes faster than
the average spin of other brands at 1200, for less time in your dryer.
In fact, only Miele is better at 1600 rpm.
Beko also has 16 different cycles
for different fabrics like jeans, bedding, hand washing.
There's even a 20 minutes wash for smaller loads.
If you live in a condominium or your laundry is on the second floor above,
Beko has water sensors.
If the tub exceeds a certain level, the machine automatically drains.
However, you'll be buying a compact set based on how the dryer
vents. Beko is one of the few
with a vented dryer option so it can replace your existing, larger laundry.
They were also one of the first
with the newer vent less heat pump drying. Heat pumps store energy and use
compressors instead of elements for more energy efficient drying.
They also do not project heat into your room like regular vent less dryers.
Lastly, at $1,099, Beko is one of the least expensive of the other options.
I'm not a huge fan of smart functionality
in general, but it makes sense for laundry.
You can see the time remaining on your cycle through an app on your phone,
rather than getting up to check.
Most of the smart machines will even text you when the cycle is complete.
Beko doesn't have smart functionality or
some of the features that Miele and Bosch have, which you'll see next.
Miele is a great compact washer.
It is the only one with the ability
to dispense caplets along with a higher 1600 rpm spin speed.
The honeycomb pattern drum is the best for washing general fabrics.
Beko, however, is larger due to the added
depth, has more cycles better reliability at a one to $200 less expensive price
tag. Bosch is quiet, and is the most reliable compact washer you can buy.
Beko is still bigger with more cycles and is still less expensive by about $200.
Both Miele and Bosch have Smart functionality and can be controlled by your phone.
However, both are also vent less. Only Beko offers the vented drying option.
Yes, you'll probably end up with one if you're considering Compact Laundry
in 2022, but only because there won't be many choices.
That said, it's a combination of size, cycles and reliability at a decent price.
