The invention discloses a water inflow control method and device for a washing machine. The water inflow control method for the washing machine includes the steps that S1, inflow water of the washing machine is controlled to be on an initial water level; S2, the washing machine is controlled to execute the water replenishing washing stage; S3, at the water replenishing washing stage, whether the water level of the washing machine is lower than the water replenishing water level or not is judged; S4, if the water level of the washing machine is lower than the water replenishing water level, the washing machine is controlled to replenish water till the water reaches the stop water level; S5, the third step and the fourth step are executed repeatedly till preset time is reached or water is not replenished. By the adoption of the water inflow control method and device for the washing machine, the initial water level, the water replenishing water level and the stop water level are set, the initial water inflow quantity and the water replenishing quantity can be reasonably distributed, the control accuracy of the water inflow quantity is improved, water inflow time is shortened, the effective washing time is guaranteed, energy is saved, emission is reduced, and the clothes washing effect is guaranteed.
