Third-party reviews

What customers like about Balay 3VS6364BA

  • Automatic door opening lets steam escape at the end of the cycle.
  • The inverter motor keeps power use to 0.645 kWh per cycle.
  • At 42 dB it is quiet enough to run while people are in the next room.
  • The load sensor adjusts the water to the amount of dishes.
  • Wi-Fi lets you start or check a cycle from your phone.
  • A delay start of up to 24 hours runs it while you are out or asleep.

What customers don't like about Balay 3VS6364BA

  • At 51.5 kg it is a two-person job to move.
  • There is no overflow protection to stop the water if the tub overfills.
  • There is no delicate wash programme for fragile glasses.
  • There is no hygiene programme for sanitising cycles.
  • There is no quiet wash programme for extra-calm night runs.

Verdict

A door that opens by itself and a quiet run are the two things you notice first with the Balay 3VS6364BA. It runs at 42 dB, so it can work while you watch TV in the next room. An inverter motor keeps each cycle to 0.645 kWh and 9 L of water. A load sensor adjusts the water to the load, and the top basket can be raised or lowered for tall glasses. You can start it from a phone over Wi-Fi, or set a delay of up to 24 hours so it runs at night. The trade-off is weight: at 51.5 kg it is a two-person job to move once it is installed. It suits a buyer who wants a quiet, full-size machine with plenty of timing options.
