The washing machine is an equipment we can no longer live without in today’s modern world and buying one is not something people usually do in a casual fashion. Instead, in order to buy the perfect washing machine for your needs you should understand certain factors such as the manufacturer’s reputation and how often you will be using the machine, amongst other things. For those individuals looking for washing machines in Dunstable, there are a plethora of brands on the market to help your clothes stay fresh and clean. This article will take a look at just some of the factors you should consider when purchasing a washing machine.
Size
Possibly the most prominent factor to consider when choosing a washing machine is the size of it. You need to be aware of the size of your utility room or the area in which you wish to have it installed. In this way, you can quickly narrow down which washing machines are suitable and not suitable for your needs.
Drum Capacity
You should also be aware of the drum capacity (measured in kilograms) of the model(s) you are looking at. If you live with other people and wash you clothes in one batch, then obviously a larger drum capacity would be necessary.
Spin Speed
The faster the washing machine can spin, the more water that is collected from your clothes ultimately resulting in drier clothes once the washing cycle has ended. The most common spin speed is 1200 rpm, how some machines boast higher revolutions such as 1400, 1600 or even 1800 rpm. The only disadvantage to higher spin rates is that some clothing actually requires lower RPMs due to creasing.
Colour and Style
Not all washing machines look the same – some are very different in appearance with different colour and shapes involved. In this way when choosing your ideal washing machine you will want something that fits in with your current décor – otherwise you’ll have a big square box that stands out like a sore thumb in an otherwise well decorated home.
Cleaning Ability
This one requires some more in-depth research. You can find reliable reviews for certain washing machines as well as enquire with manufacturers and washing machine sellers too.
