Peculiarities
The conversation about the Snow White washing machine should start with the fact that it is a domestic brand. All models produced under this brand are relatively inexpensive. Even people on a very tight budget can buy them. The firm "Snow White" has received official federal certificates for all the developments it produces. In the assessments of experts, attention is drawn to:

Popular models
The assortment of the Snow White company includes models of semiautomatic washing machines with and without spinning. Has a very good reputation XPB3000S. The typical size is 39x38.5x53 cm. The declared capacity is 3 kg of linen. Each item will be washed in ¼ hours; the weight of the device itself is 4.5 kg.
More advanced model - XPB4000S. Its dimensions are 45x41.5x68.5 cm. The weight of the device is 6.4 kg, and inside you can put up to 4 kg of linen. The current consumption for 1 hour, as in the previous model, is 0.25 kW. The rotary-short-time operation is very good.
An even more advanced device - XPB6000S. Its dimensions are 44x47x80 cm. Inside you can put up to 6 kg of various linen. The dry weight is 9.4 kg. The device consumes 0.38 kW of current per hour.
Most productive model - BN5500SG... Its dimensions are 63x38.5x71.5 cm. Other parameters are as follows:
- nominal load indicator for washing 5.5 kg;
- nominal loading rate during spinning 3 kg;
- current consumption during washing and spinning 0.3 and 0.15 kW, respectively;
- the duration of the spin on the timer is 5 minutes;
- built-in pump;
- dry weight 14.3 kg.
Slightly less efficient was the Snow White BN4300SG washing machine. In a case measuring 57.5x35x63.5 cm and weighing 11.9 kg, you can put 4.3 kg of linen. But when spinning, you can put no more than 2.8 kg of laundry. The current consumption during washing and spinning will be 0.26 and 0.14 kW, respectively. Energy efficiency class A deserves approval (however, it is typical for the entire model range of "Snow White").
Regardless of the specific model of the washing machine, it is recommended to soak the laundry either in clean water or (if heavily soiled) in a powder solution.
When determining the volume of the bookmark, one must not forget that mass specification is indicated for wet, not dry condition... It is undesirable to wash in "Snow White" at a temperature of more than 50 degrees. If necessary, you can add hot water while washing. As with the use of equipment from other manufacturers, it is worth sorting things by purpose, color, fabric composition and degree of clogging.
Drain hose must be fixed above the water level. For this purpose, use the mount included in the kit. In addition to manual or machine spinning (in the presence of a centrifuge), the washed laundry must be rinsed.
Recommendation: after the end of washing, pour out the dirty water, and fill in clean water before wringing out the laundry. Proper use allows us to guarantee the operation of Snow White machines for 5 years or more.
Additional operating information can be found in the manual for the BN5500SG model. It states that a car delivered home in cold weather can be turned on only after exposure for 4 hours or more at room temperature. Using water hotter than 60 degrees may damage the housing and hoses. If powders with enzymes and similar active ingredients are used, it is better to limit the temperature altogether to 40 degrees.
When the machine is in operation, do not do anything in the tank either with your hands or with a linen grip.
Other recommendations:
- do not leave the semiautomatic device unattended;
- connect it to the network only when the relay is in the "off" position;
- do not use the machine on a carpet or other soft surface;
- do not soak things before washing in gasoline and other solvents;
- do not plug Snow White into an outlet where something else is connected;
- exclude installation near heaters and other heat sources.
At the first start, it is worth checking the operation of the device at idle speed (without loading with laundry). After filling the tank with water, turn on the machine for 2 minutes. All this time it is necessary to watch whether the activator rotates stably. Be sure to fasten zippers and buttons, remove any things from your pockets.
To better wash off strong dirt, problem areas need to be covered with soapy water.
