Leran washing machines are an inexpensive technique that is not really known about. We learn what this brand offers, to whom it belongs and where the devices are assembled.
“Leran” - the brand of which country?
The brand name, caressing the ear, alluding to "European origin", belongs to the Chelyabinsk company RBT. LERAN is a Russian brand under which a variety of household appliances are sold on the domestic market - from floor scales and coffee grinders to washing machines and refrigerators. A company from Chelyabinsk launched the brand in 2010. RBT itself is well known as a manufacturer of electronics and household appliances. In addition to Leran, the Russian company RBT owns the Doffler and Ardin brands.
Automatic washing machines "Leran" - a joint Russian-Chinese products, focused on domestic consumption. The manufacturer offers goods at reasonable prices, which hopes to attract undemanding consumers who do not delve into the nuances of manufacturing equipment.
RBT Service Center is located only in Chelyabinsk.

There are no specific reviews on how the model works on the network. It seems that everyone who bought such a washing machine is hiding this fact, not having the opportunity to explain their act - what exactly prompted them to buy a washing machine from the tandem of the Chelyabinsk company + Chinese manufacturer.
Model WMS-1267WD is slightly narrower than the above (by 1 cm), but most importantly - it provides leakage protection. About this version, users respond mostly well. They write that it works quietly and squeezes well, does not vibrate at high speeds. One of the owners, on the contrary, noted that she did not have advantages, but it can be understood, since the pump burned up in the SMA bought by him after 9 months of operation. And repairing such a breakdown is expensive.
Leran WMXS-10632WD2 - heavy duty
Another front-facing machine with electronic control and a digital display. Weight - 60 kg. There is no drying. There is a timer up to 24 hours. The loading hatch opens 180 degrees.

The model is not so deep, but weighs more than the previous one. It has fewer programs, but a solid load - 6 kg. And here, conspiringly, consumers are silent. In a few reviews, we find out that the car is noisy - which is natural considering the decibels, but it erases and wrings out well. The controls are clear, and the installation is straightforward.

Full-size washing machine with intelligent control and digital display. Weight - 74 kg.

This is one of the most capacious and expensive cars. It is cumbersome compared to the previous ones, but it has a large load, many programs and high spin speeds. This is an option designed for a large family or a small pension. But there is no drying in this model either. This model, unlike many SMA "Leran", is completely protected from leaks.
WMS-0850W - with minimal load
The smallest download version in the Leran line. This is an intelligent type of control. There is no display, but the panel has all the necessary buttons and a mode switch. Weight - 60 kg.
- Capacity: 5 kg.

- Safety: protection against leaks, protection against children, control of imbalance and foam level.
- Noise level (wash / spin): 57/77 dB.
- Dimensions (WxDxH): 60x45x85 cm.
This machine has not been approved by its owners. Obviously, they regret being led into cheapness. However, for 16,000 rubles one could buy some inexpensive Italian washing machine. No advantages were found for this machine - it is inferior to competitors in all respects. Consumers noted poor build quality, “clumsy design” and “sad warranty service” (citations).
One of the "happy" owners of this "continuous flaw" is justified - he acquired this miracle technology for the action, almost to the load on the refrigerator and microwave of the same company. Moreover, the user has no complaints about the quality of the latter.
WMS 53147 WD2 - Leakproof
Freestanding front-facing standard size. There is a display and convenient buttons on the electronic control panel. Weight - 69 kg. The wash can be delayed for 24 hours using a timer. There is also a drum cleaning function.
- Capacity: 7 kg.
- Spin speed: 1400 rpm.
- Number of programs: 15 pcs. (including washing sportswear, washing down items, a program for washing mixed fabrics, super rinsing).
- Energy Efficiency Class: A +++.
- Classes of washing / spin: A / B.
- Safety: protection against leaks, protection against children, control of imbalance and foam level.
- Noise level (wash / spin): 57/77 dB.
- Dimensions (WxDxH): 60x52x85 cm.
The advantage of this SMA is complete leakage protection and drum cleaning. The washer launders laundry well, stable, does not vibrate. There are complaints of strong noise during the spin cycle.
Narrow washer WMS-13127WD is almost similar to the considered modification. She, unlike WMS 53147 WD2, has lower speeds - up to 1200 per minute, fewer programs - 8 pieces and a lower price - 17,990 rubles.
WAD-9914K WD3 - with dryer
Freestanding SMA with high load and timed drying. Type of control - electronic. There is a display. The device weighs 74 kg. There is a self-cleaning drum function.
- Capacity: 10 kg.
- Drying: up to 7 kg.
- Spin speed: 1400 rpm.
- Number of programs: 16 pcs. (including washing jeans, a program for washing mixed fabrics, super rinse, quick wash).
- Energy Efficiency Class: A.
- Classes of washing / spin: A / B.
- Safety: protection against leaks, protection against children, control of imbalance and foam level.
- Dimensions (WxDxH): 60x66x85 cm.
Noise characteristics for this modification are not even on the company's website. Therefore, the decibels issued by her can only be guessed at. This SMA, unlike all other Leran washing machines, is equipped with a dryer. Having the same load with the WML 9714K WD3, the WAD-9914K WD3 costs about 4000 rubles more - the cost of having a dryer is approximately the same. Of course, in the energy class, an SMA with a dryer is inferior to analogues that do not have this option.
Conclusions
After looking at the model, reading the instructions, reviews of specialists and consumers, we summarize:
- “Leran” washing machines break with the same frequency as any other equipment of this level.
- Technique made in China. And especially for the Russian consumer. You can expect anything from such SMA. Some work for some time without failures, others break down in the very first days. Moreover, the cause of the breakdown can be both factory defects and a violation of operating standards.
- SMA “Leran” do not claim to be “supertechnics” - these are inexpensive machines designed for several years of washing. Well, if something breaks in them, it’s “who doesn’t happen to anyone”, RBT will say.
- The manufacturer relies on narrow cars - the range is inexpensive, which means that the buyer will certainly be interested in a small device.
- The manufacturer has provided drying in one modification. This option significantly increases the cost of SMA.
Looking at the brand’s prices, it’s hard to say what arguments should make buyers abandon Kandy, Indesit or Bosch in favor of Leran. Perhaps RBT washers are interesting for residents of the Chelyabinsk region due to the proximity of the service center. We tried to find out the maximum about Leran washing machines, and it is up to you to decide whether or not to take them.
