The best full-size washing machines of 2020

Over the past decades, automatic washing machines have come into use so tightly that life without this miracle of technology is already difficult to imagine. Almost every family, with rare exceptions, has such an assistant in its service. But the service life of this unit is not eternal, and sooner or later it is necessary to update the equipment, asking questions: “How to choose? Which model? Which company is better? " The editors of the site "bestx.htgetrid.com/en/" have prepared answers for these and other questions.

How to choose the right washing machine

The first thing to look for when choosing a new assistant is size. This will determine whether the car will enter the intended place for it or not. Sometimes every centimeter is important, especially if the device is planned to be placed in a confined space or built into furniture.

When the measurements are made, it remains to take into account one more important point - the way of loading the laundry. As you know, there are two types of loading in automatic washing machines: front and vertical. In terms of reliability and quality of washing, they have approximately equal components. What should be guided by when choosing one form or another to avoid mistakes? To do this, you need to consider each species in more detail.

Front loading

In our country, these are the most popular models of washing machines. Stylish design, usability and ease of use make the choice in favor of this type. The window on the front panel allows you to monitor the washing process, and in some cases it helped to notice accidentally documents, bills, keys and other items that got there. The door in modern and expensive units can be opened to all 180 degrees, which facilitates the process of unloading the laundry. And the top panel usually serves as a shelf on which you can put anything you want.

An excellent solution would be to mount the washing machine in kitchen furniture by placing a countertop on the top panel. With this option, you need to carefully calculate all dimensions down to a centimeter so that there are no troubles after purchasing the unit.

Full-size front-loading washing machines usually have the following dimensions: height 85-90 cm, width 60 and depth 60 cm.Despite the fact that such devices are quite spacious and can wash up to 7-10 kg of dry laundry at a time, they are still take up enough space. Therefore, for small rooms or a small family, more compact models with a depth of 35-40 cm are presented, which can hold up to 4 kg of linen. There are even ultra-compact machines with a depth of only 29-36 cm. Of course, the amount of linen entering there is enough for only one person.

Also available are under-sink models with a height of 68-70 cm and a depth of 40-42 cm.Such a device will save space and will do its job of washing, albeit a small amount. For example, for a large family, on the contrary, you can choose a good roomy model from 7 kg and more. Front loading also provides for an option with an arrangement in a column, for example, a washing and drying machine.

Thus, we see that front-loading machines have a wide range of models for every taste and for any size. However, there are also significant drawbacks: the door should be located in an accessible place and have a sufficient distance ahead so that you can easily remove or put clothes for washing. There are also times when things need to be reported during the washing process. Front-loading washing machines deprive us of this opportunity, since the door is equipped with a leakage protection mechanism and is blocked during washing. However, in some models, additional loading of laundry is provided, but at the same time the water is pre-drained, which increases its consumption.

Advantages:

Disadvantages:

Top loading

Machines of this type are in no way inferior to front ones in terms of washing efficiency, and differ only in the shape of the load. What attracts the consumer to make a choice in their favor? First of all, it is compactness. The drum of such units is located as if an ordinary machine were standing sideways. Thus, the appliance takes up less space in width, while not yielding to the volume of the loaded laundry.

The standard dimensions of a top-loading washing machine are as follows: height - 85-90 cm, width - 40 cm, depth - 60 cm. There are also more compact models in width. It is also important that this type of machine does not need space in front, because things are loaded from above, so it can be pushed into the tightest corner. This is a great solution for small apartments with a small combined bathroom.

Loading the laundry is carried out by first opening the top panel, then the flap of the drum itself. More modern models have a "Drum Up" system, which, when stopped, positions the drum exactly in the flaps. This allows you not to scroll it constantly to the desired position, which is very convenient. Another advantage will be the ability to reload the laundry, because when you open the tank, water will not spill onto the floor, as is the case with the front position.

Like any technique, a top-loading machine has its drawbacks. The main one is the impossibility to use the top cover as a shelf, as well as to build the device under the kitchen countertop.

Advantages:

Disadvantages:

Even having figured out how to load the laundry, it is easy to get lost in the variety of units on the market. After all, there are other selection criteria that are important to pay attention to: drive type, functionality, additional options, speed, efficiency and others.

Taking into account the best consumer reviews, you can review the best manufacturers and models of washing machines, how much they cost, which function is better to buy, and so on. And if you have a large family or are used to washing things in large quantities, then a full-size washing machine with a load of 5 kg or more will be ideal for you.
