Consumer feedback after using a Candy washing machine for more than 5 years

Candy washing machine problems and issues
The fact that we are reviewing a washing machine that made it for over 5 years and is still running fine is a positive way to start this consumer feedback.

Today we will be discussing problems and issues that we had with our Candy washing machine and share general consumer feedback about the product. 

Candy GrandO 6kg washing machine - main problems

For us it is a huge achievement that a modern washing machine works for so many years. When we first bought this Candy GrandO we never thought that it would last for many years since the region that it was installed is popular with the high concentration of limestone which helps for quick wear out of parts and eventually breaking down.

And yes, this washing machine had some issues during this period but it survived. Here are some of the problems that we encountered with this Candy washing machine:

  • Malfunctioning of programs and controls - sometimes the indicators on the front panel just start blinking randomly and it gets very hard to set the desired program. The quick fix that we figured out so far is just trying multiple times - turning it off and choosing the desired mode/program again.
  • Washing programs failure - sometimes it happened that the washing machine just stuck on specific mode and kept on going and going. To reduce total breakdown and failure we had paused the machine and then turn off the program. 
  • Overheating - we noticed that sometimes the machine does not follow the program that we chose and heated up the water to much higher levels, not sure what the reason might be.
Despite all of these issues that didn't occur that often, the machine still runs and washes the clothes respectively well. There are no cosmetic damage or visible issues on the outside as well which is of course more or less depending on the user.

Here is a short video of our Candy washing machine, just to see how it looks in real world conditions:


One positive feature of this washing machine is that it is very stable and even on full load it doesn't move around like our Gorenje SensoCare W6523/SC which has the slim form factor and much smaller dimensions.

Well, that is our consumer feedback and real-world experience for Candy washing machines. Please share your thoughts and opinion with us, we will be happy to hear from you!

Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A Full HD LED TV price, specs and review Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A  Full HD LED TV Sony Bravia KDL-42W650A review - today at our consumer blog we are going to take a look at one of the latest 42-inch Sony Full HD TVs which offers great picture quality and will suit best everyone who needs an excellent home cinema experience without 3D effects. Sony Bravia KDL-42W650 is still not very popular around the world and the reason for that is not the lack of quality or functions which this TV is fully packed with but because of the fact that the  KDL-42W650/ KDL-42W650A is mostly going to be sold in Eastern Europe and some parts of Asia. Of course you can find this TV in other countries as well but it is still not presented in huge markets like UK and USA.

This is my very first look at the Gen 3, and I wanted to share my initial feedback on what’s improved and what hasn’t. The E16 Gen 3 I’m reviewing here is equipped with the Intel Core Ultra 5 processor, shared Intel graphics, and 32GB of RAM.
