Washing machine with two drums: pros and cons

In 2015, in Berlin, for the first time, the world saw a miracle washing machine from Haier Duo with two drums.

In 2016, the market for washing appliances grew and surprised with creativity and innovation.

The amazing Korean LG TWIN Wash has arrived. This washing machine is also designed with two drums and impressed everyone with its originality.

In this article, we will take a closer look at washing machines with two drums.

Two-tank firstborns

Haier Duo

As mentioned above, a couple of years ago, the Chinese company Haier introduced an unusual washing machine - Haier Duo.

This model had two floors and was supplied with two drums.

Its unusualness can be described by the presence of:

• 2 drums (8 and 4 kg);
• touch screen;
• work counters;
• remote control;
• energy saving function;
• large capacity;
• compactness.

The essence of using this technique is the ability of the owner to select the desired program, while using two boot tanks:

• the small drum is intended mainly for washing delicate items and gentle care,
• large - for blankets, pillows, as well as something large and massive, but the possibility of washing ordinary things is not excluded.

LG

TWIN wash

A year later, LG TWINWash also rose to the pedestal of two-tank washing machines. This washing machine with two drums was struck by the declared load weight.

The drum, which is smaller, is hidden at the very bottom, in a retractable drawer.

This model has built-in remote control from a smartphone.

Now you can monitor the consumption of electricity and the progress of washing outside the home.

SIGNATURE

This washing machine is similar to the previous model, but with an innovative suspension system.

The LG SIGNATURE washing machine has a self-cleaning function for both drums and a steam wash.

Steam washing is needed to remove odors and smooth wrinkles. Both washing machines are large, which is surprising.

Other interesting models

Samsung AddWash

If we consider the Samsung AddWash model, it boasts the AddWash function (hatch in the hatch) - a godsend for forgotten things.

In a conventional washing machine, in order to add a forgotten sock or something else during the washing process, you need to turn off the program, wait for the lock to be unlocked, etc.

With this model, everything is simple. An additional door opens into the washing tub and the desired laundry is loaded without interrupting the program.

The washing machine also distinguished itself with a bubble wash. Manufacturers are confident in its effectiveness. There is also remote access from a smartphone.

AEG Soft Water

Manufacturers of AEG SoftWater in the washing machines of the 9000 series installed an ion-exchange filter that is responsible for softening the water. Thus, washing at 30 degrees will correspond to washing at 60 degrees.

Although, when using a detergent with enzymes, a high temperature is not needed, since the powder is effective already at 40 degrees.

But in any case, the benefits for washing machines are obvious, since with soft water, the presence of scale on the heating element will be much less.

Siemens IQ 700

IQ 700 or dry cleaning at home. For things that need dry cleaning, Siemens has developed a washing machine with senoFresh technology - Siemens IQ 700.

Thanks to ozone, dirt molecules are broken down and suits, wool, silk, clothes with rhinestones, embroidery, etc. can be smoothed out without water, as well as getting rid of odors.

This 2-drum washer dryer boasts an inverter motor, making it nearly silent.

Analysis of a washing machine with two drums

Advantages

There are many advantages of acquiring such a gadget: this is the ability to load different things (white, colored, children's, sports things), and simultaneous washing in two drums.

The effectiveness of clothing care is very high. The washing machine is able to cope even with very strong dirt and working things, while eliminating unpleasant odors.

The use of such a technique is advisable in a house with a large number of people, children.

The benefits are obvious from its use in laundries and factories.

Flaws

1. The size.
   Despite the minimality, nevertheless, a washing machine with two drums is rather big and is unlikely to fit in a small room.
2. Lack of separate touch screens for reels.
3. A single control unit, that is, in the event of a malfunction, both drums will suffer.
4. Drying. This feature is only available on one of the reels.
5. High price.

Undoubtedly, a washing machine with two drums is an amazing novelty, but can it replace a conventional washing machine that also has a huge number of functions and programs?
