Atlant washing machines: the best models + features of washing machines of this brand

Washing machines belong to different classes.There are expensive units with many important and secondary functions, highly intelligent controls, the capabilities of which often exceed the needs and level of knowledge of most consumers.

But at the same time, inexpensive products with an excellent cost-quality ratio are always in demand. These include the Atlant washing machines, beloved by many, which stand out from competitors with their modest functionality and affordability.

What are the pros and cons of Belarusian-made units? How to choose a suitable model from the Atlant product range? What are the design and functional features of washing machines of different series? The answers to the above questions are described in detail in our article.

Advantages and disadvantages of Atlant CJSC products

Joint Stock Company Atlant (Belarus) was created relatively recently - in 1993 on the basis of several former Soviet factories that produced refrigerators and other equipment known in the USSR. This indicates sufficient experience in the field of creating household equipment. Washing machines have been produced since 2003.

Until recently, Atlant CJSC was known mainly for its to your refrigerators, but cooperation with various European manufacturers has allowed us to significantly expand the range of products.

In addition, foreign components make it possible to supply customers with fairly high-quality and modern products.

Atlant JSC logo
Atlant CJSC has been producing washing machines for a decade and a half, which is confirmation of their competitiveness and indicates reliability and productivity

When the question arose about producing washing machines, the company did not reinvent the wheel and develop something new and innovative.

That is, as in the case of other products, the necessary sets of parts are purchased abroad, from which inexpensive, not brilliant in design, but durable and fully functional products are assembled in Minsk.

Popularity of Atlant washing machines in the CIS
Washing machines produced with the Atlant logo are in demand within the post-Soviet space, which is justified by their affordable price and the ability to find replacement parts at any time

Belarusian Atlant washing machines have become in demand, which indicates that they have enough advantages that can satisfy the needs of numerous users.

Firstly, moderate cost, or more precisely, all Belarusian cars are among the most inexpensive on the market.

But still the most accessible are not, for example, individual Haier models may be cheaper, while the specified manufacturer is the most popular in the world.

Long service life of Atlant washing machines
According to reviews from owners of Atlant washing machines produced about a decade ago, the equipment still serves its owners well.

Secondly, the integrity of the company, which is once again confirmed by the fact that many buyers of first-generation equipment note that it still effectively copes with its functions. Although these units are already more than 10 years old.

Third, the entire product line of the Belarusian manufacturer is optimally adapted to our conditions. For example, the products are protected from voltage surges, which foreign companies cannot boast of.

Atlant plant
The Atlant company has its own research center and production facilities. All of them are located in Belarus, namely in Minsk and Baranovichi

In addition, we can highlight a number of advantages of the company’s washing units:

  1. Reliability — extensive experience, the use of only modern equipment and high-quality components of foreign origin allow the Minsk manufacturer to produce decent cars.
  2. Excellent wash quality - all Atlant models, without exception, according to this characteristic belong to class A and this is the highest rating.
  3. Functionality — the equipment of the presented brand has a sufficient number of pre-installed programs and numerous additional functions. Which allow you to effectively cope with washing of any complexity. In addition, in some cases, owners can actively participate in creating the necessary modes, which improves the quality of cleaning.
  4. Simple controls — it is intuitive, and indications and displays will help you control the situation. The entire Atlantov menu is Russified, and the accompanying instructions are clear and extensive, which not every manufacturer can boast of.
  5. Low noise - it is not at the lowest level, but is within 59 dB, which is quite enough not to disturb the comfort of the owners.
  6. Economical — a number of machines of the modern line of Atlant JSC belong to class A+++, which indicates the most careful consumption of electricity.But this does not apply to all models, so potential buyers should pay attention to this point before purchasing.

In addition, the units of JSC Atlant are compact - among them there are quite narrow and ultra-narrow ones, the depth of which does not exceed 32 cm. And this allows you to significantly save space in small-sized housing.

Laundry
Although Atlant washing machines are in demand, they are designed only for buyers who do not want or cannot purchase more expensive products from top manufacturers

Like any equipment, washing machines of Belarusian origin have some disadvantages. And potential buyers should know them, since the right choice may depend on this.

Atlant washing machine repair
The undeniable advantages include the availability of high-quality service in most Belarusian and Russian regions, as well as in large cities of nearby countries

The disadvantages include:

  1. Insufficient spin quality — many Atlant models are capable of draining water at the level of class C requirements, which is simply a good indicator. And some of them meet only class D standards and this is a frankly mediocre characteristic.
  2. Using brushed motors only - the advantage of this type is only in availability when purchasing. And the performance characteristics, durability, and efficiency are inferior to inverter analogues. Read more about the features of different washing machine motors in this article.
  3. Insufficient efficiency of some models — many of them belong to classes A, A+. This means that their owners will have to pay 10-40% more for electricity than users of units belonging to classes A++, A+++.
  4. Various minor design flaws.

Owners of Atlant washing machines often complain about minor but unpleasant little things. For example, when opening hatches, a certain amount of water often falls onto the floor. You can combat this simply by placing some rags underneath, but people still don’t like it.

There are other disadvantages, for example, hair and other debris often accumulate between the metal surface of the drum and the plastic fins.

In addition, owners are not happy that some models can vibrate strongly during spinning. Sometimes this phenomenon is frightening, since in one cycle 60-kilogram units can move a meter.

You can combat this by following washing machine installation rules and placing the unit on a rubberized anti-vibration mat. In addition, this phenomenon is quite infrequent.

Atlant car assembly
The machines are assembled on a high-tech production line equipped only with modern equipment. The qualifications of the workforce also cannot cause any complaints.

You also need to know that the Belarusian manufacturer produces only machines with the most popular type of loading - frontal, that is, there are no vertically loaded ones in the range.

But this feature is only partly a disadvantage - the presence of narrow (41 cm) and very narrow (32 cm) units makes it possible to almost fully compensate for it.

Front washing machines
The company produces the most popular front-loading washing machines in the CIS. The assortment offered for sale includes models of different capacities, dimensions and widths.

Features of choosing the appropriate option

The line of Atlant JSC constantly includes several dozen models.Therefore, each potential buyer, in order to make the right choice and not be disappointed, must take into account a number of nuances.

These include:

  • productivity, that is, you need to know how many kilograms of things the unit holds;
  • efficiency;
  • functionality;
  • control;
  • dimensions;
  • safety.

Washing machines from the Belarusian manufacturer Atlant can wash up to 3.5-8 kg of clothes in one cycle. The smallest load is for very narrow units, the depth of which does not exceed 32 cm.

Small washing machine
Washing machines with different tank capacities are produced under the Atlant brand. For small families, they produce washing machines with a capacity of 3.5 - 4 kg of dry laundry weight

If a potential buyer is looking for an economical model, then you need to be careful, since cars with similar characteristics and appearance may have different efficiency - from class A to A+++. Therefore, the difference in paying for electricity will be significant.

Production of cars Atlant
It is in the spirit of minimalism that most of the machines from the Atlant company’s range look, but this does not in any way affect durability and performance

All Atlant models are quite functional, as they have a considerable number of programs - 23 and even additional capabilities to ensure high-quality cleaning of things made from different fabrics.

But, if there is no desire or need to use all the variety of possibilities or adjust existing modes, then it is better to buy a unit with mechanical control.

This is done using buttons and a dial, and to save money, you can choose a model without a display. In this case, control will be performed using the light indication of the buttons.

When a buyer plans to wash things made from a variety of materials, he should pay attention to a series of new units LOGIC Navigation.

These models have a modest number of programs (15 in total) and additional functions, but simple and logical controls will allow the user to make significant adjustments and get maximum results. This concerns efficiency and quality of washing.

Emergency drain hose
The latest models of the Atlant brand are equipped with a miniature hose for emergency draining of water from the tank. It is located next to the drain system filter behind the decorative hatch of the service area

Today, an important parameter is the safety of using machines - all Atlant machines are protected from power surges.

But, if we touch on the actual problem of leaks, which happen rarely but can cause significant damage, then everything is not so optimistic - complete protection against such faults is quite rare.

The simplest option is more common, which is a sensor that detects only a leak in the hose. In more rare cases, housing protection is provided, which drains water if leakage is detected in the tank.

Assembly principle of the Atlant washing machine
The Belarusian manufacturer took a practical approach to creating its cars, so engines and electronics are bought abroad, and everything else is done in Minsk

Not all models have sensors installed that can detect foam formation. This phenomenon can cause significant damage in the form of car breakdown and flooding.

A positive point is the presence of child protection in almost all electronically controlled models.

For example, there are modes for manual, intensive and express cleaning. In addition, there are separate options for popular sports shoes, stain removal and many others.

    We bought a washing machine for a rented apartment. An inexpensive and compact option was needed.In a household appliances store we were advised to pay attention to models from Atlant. Ultimately we settled on SMA 50U88. Light and small, it fits perfectly in a small bathroom. It will be convenient to transport from place to place. Moreover, it is very easy to use. It consumes no more electricity and water than similar washing machines. Yes, it's a little noisy, but it doesn't cause any discomfort. While we are using it, we are happy. But there are not many washing programs, so if you have more money, choose a better model.

    • Margarita

      In most cases, you only use basic washing programs anyway. It’s confusing that many people write about Atlanteans’ problems with electronics.

        Hello. Atlant is in the budget price category and in this version, its most common typical breakdowns are even lower than those of most cars in this series. The distribution of a large number of reviews may be due to the high popularity of the company. From personal experience, I want to say that the Atlant washing machine “lives” and has been working for many years without failures when used correctly.

  2. Olga

    We bought an Atlant washing machine for our dacha; it cost very reasonable money, and this became an important argument. We have already encountered a refrigerator and freezer from this company, so we are satisfied with the quality. We only use it in the summer, so we don’t worry about high power consumption. It washes well and is easy to use. Never broke down in 2 years.

  3. Denis

    Our machine is not draining water, most likely the electric pump has burned out. Where can I buy it and how much does it cost? The car is 4 years old...

      Hello. The age of your washing machine, unfortunately, doesn’t tell us anything. You would name the model and other symptoms of the problem, it is quite possible that you could do without a pump. You can purchase a pump in online stores, from private craftsmen, or by placing an ad on your local website; perhaps someone is selling a similar model with a working pump for spare parts.

    • Anatoly

      If your washing machine does not drain water, then do not rush to panic and predict an expensive repair. Here everything can turn out to be trivially simple - the filter located at the bottom of the machine is clogged. Depending on the model, the hatch may be open or you may have to remove the lower trim panel.

      The design of these filters is almost identical; anything goes into this compartment: hair, small items, torn dogs, seeds, etc. You simply unscrew this filter counterclockwise, don’t forget a rag and water, since the water from the machine will flow from there. After this, clean the filter and the machine should work normally.

    Atlant on washing machines does not have the topic of promoting smart and simple washing machines in the Russian Federation. Irritating is the dominance of all sorts of shmurdyaks like Veko, Kandy, etc. on the shelves of our Ural region.

    Where are Atlanta? Even at the office. There are no representatives in the Russian Federation at all for the latest and penultimate models such as 1210 and 1214. It’s sad...

      I don’t know how it is in the Urals, here are the addresses shops, and so, 1210 not going anywhere From Russia. But in any case, you can try calling stores and asking where it is possible to pre-order specifically for models.

      • Vadik

        The official dealers told me that the 2019 washing machine models are not yet supplied or purchased in the Russian Federation... is there any other information?

  5. Dmitriy

    I would really like to know about the maintainability of the Atlant s/m. I hoped that the main units (engine, tank) would be manufactured at the Atlant plant, but they boast of units from overseas, i.e. from China, is insulting. Is the tank collapsible?

    • Expert

      Hello. Actually, the engines are assembled at Baranovsky (if I’m not mistaken) production facilities (part of the Atlant plant) using Bosch equipment (bought). Processors, radio components, and layout elements are purchased in China, yes. At the same time, their quality is very good. As for the tanks, the Atlanteans have them mostly collapsible. Which model are you interested in?

  6. Tatyana Nikolaevna

    Is the tank of the Atlant SMA 50U 107 and Atlant SMA 50U 102 washing machines collapsible? I can’t choose, I’ve been online for three days and the stores can’t give an answer.

    • Alexei

      All Atlants have a collapsible one.

  7. Alexei

    Engines are made in the city of Baranovichi, Brest region, and compressors for refrigerators are also assembled there. I have a 2-chamber refrigerator with 2 compressors that has been working since 2006. After the Bosch washing machine, in the 5th year of operation, I changed the bearings and seals, I purchased an ATLANT SMA 70C1210-A-00-00 washing machine, 3rd year without problems.

  8. Alexei

    Our Atlant has been plowing for 10 years without any complaints, it runs at 800 rpm, and we don’t complain about the spin either. And with the energy consumption class there’s this trick: the “better” it is, the more fun the washing looks due to the tiny amount of water - the wet laundry just tumbles around in the drum. Electricity is saved mainly due to LESS operating time of the heating element.The less water, the faster it heats up, and the less electricity it will consume. By the way, yes. I'll have to take a look at the brushes sometime. Even just for the sake of respect for the car.
