Choosing the narrowest washing machine
- You also need to think about how much budget you can allocate for the purchase of the device, and the cost should not be the main component of the choice, because the high price may depend on features that you do not need at all.
- To choose a model, you need to decide with which load you will buy a washing machine: vertical or front. Front loading will allow you to put the device in built-in furniture, but it requires space in front to be able to open the door and load the laundry. You can’t put a top-loading device under a sink or countertop, but it will take up little space in the bathroom. Such a unit is compact, does not require additional space when loading laundry.
- To purchase the narrowest automatic washing machine that effectively erases things and at the same time saves energy, pay attention to the washing class. Washing machines come in classes from A to G. But the highest quality for washing is class A, and for spinning, you can take a washing machine of class A, B, C.
- Pay attention also to the capacity of the loading tank. It must hold at least 3.5 kg of dry laundry. If you live alone, then this download is enough for you. But if you have a large family, then the amount of laundry that needs to be placed in the drum should be at least 4.5 kg.
- The best spin is 1000-1200 rpm. There are units in which the number of revolutions is much higher up to 2000.Linen from such devices comes out almost dry, you can already iron it without wasting time drying it. But it should be noted that the drum rotation radius of a narrow washing machine is small, so the spin quality of such equipment will be much less than that of full-sized devices. In modern washing machines, there is an independent choice of the spin mode.
- When buying a device, look at what material the drum is made of. If it is made of stainless steel, then you are guaranteed a long service life. But composite materials make the running of washing machines inaudible. Therefore, when choosing a device, decide what is more important to you: a long service life or a quiet operation of the device.
- When choosing washing programs, you need to pay attention to their quality, not quantity. It happens that the consumer does not use many of them, uses only 2-3 programs.
- It would be nice if the washing machine had a leak protection function. If an accidental water leak has begun, then the washing machine (solenoid valve) automatically shuts off the water supply so as not to flood the neighbors. Not all washing machines have this feature. Some have partial leakage protection. In this case, you need to buy a special hose that is placed on the device. This washing machine is expensive.
- The machine must be stylish, so that by design it also fits into the built-in furniture.
- There are various control sensors in washing machines: imbalance control, foaming, water quality, detergent dissolution, anti-crease control.All these engineering achievements are certainly nice to have, but it is worth considering whether you need these features in order to pay a high price for them.
- When purchasing a narrow washing machine, keep in mind that it must have several counterweights to ensure its stability.
The balance of models of household appliances without a drive belt, the absence of unnecessary drive mechanisms in them saves energy. Washes such a device cleaner due to the precise and fast motor.
