Hotpoint-Ariston AQD 1070D 49 white

Washing machines of the Aqualtis series of the Hotpoint-Ariston brand cannot be confused with competitor models. Their appearance was created by Japanese designer Makio Hasuike. The control panel with a display is placed on the drum door, which, in turn, stands out against the background of the white case with a silvery colour and original texture.

Capacity, dimensions and economy

Hotpoint-Ariston AQD1070D 49 will wash up to 10 kg of cotton at a time, and if you need to dry your laundry, you will have to limit yourself to 7 kg. As for such a large load, the washing machine is not too bulky: the depth of the case is 62 cm with a standard height and width.

Thanks to the Super Silent inverter motor, for which the manufacturer gives a 10-year warranty, the machine is not too noisy (80 dB during spinning). For a cycle, the model consumes up to 108 liters of water (with drying, without it — 77 liters) and up to 6.12 kW of electricity (class A), which, given the capacity, is an acceptable indicator.

Wide range of modes

The Hotpoint-Ariston AQD1070D 49 offers separate wash programs for different types of fabrics and clothing colours (light, warm, coloured). The total number of modes is 17 (including various automatic types of drying). The two most used programs can be stored in the instrument's memory and activated at the touch of a button.

Woolmark's highest rating (Apparel Care — Platinum) confirms the quality cleaning and gentle care of woollens, including those marked "hand wash only" on the label.

Dryer parameters

Drying in Hotpoint-Ariston AQD1070D 49 is programmed both as an independent procedure and as a stage after washing. In the first case, you need to specify the type of fabric (cotton, synthetics or wool), and in the second, “automatic” will choose the compatible mode itself. Drying is adjusted by time (from 20 to 180 minutes) or by degree (extra, “in the closet”, “on a hanger” and “under the iron”). Without drying, a low residual moisture content will be provided by spinning at speeds up to 1400 rpm, corresponding to the highest class A. However in this case, with a large load, strong vibrations are possible, up to displacement of the case.

Otherwise, it is no coincidence that Hotpoint-Ariston AQD1070D 49 is very popular in the market, attracting buyers with its affordable price tag, as for a model with a large load and a dryer.
