Capacity
When shopping for a new washing machine, you need to consider your household laundry needs. If you have a large family or have a large amount of bulk laundry, you'll need a larger capacity machine. A smaller machine is sufficient when you only wash a few things or have an enviable household. The right size machine ensures that your clothes will remain clean and the machine won't become damaged over time.
The capacity of a washing machine is usually expressed in kilograms (kg). The capacity of the machine is not its weight, but the quantity of dry laundry it can hold. It is essential not to over-load the machine because it could cause damage and also increase the energy consumption. You should also consider the type of clothing and fabric you'll be washing. For example, thick cottons and heavy woollens require a bigger capacity washer than synthetics that are lighter in weight.

Energy efficiency
Energy efficiency is one of the most important considerations when it comes to choosing a washing machine. Modern washing machines consume less energy than their older counterparts, which means they'll lower your electricity bills and also reduce your impact on the environment.
The amount of energy used by a washer is dependent on the number of programmes and their duration, as well as the size of the load. Washing machines that have shorter program durations tend to use less energy. Look for models with fewer cycles and shorter wash times.
In recent years, manufacturers have incorporated programmes into their machines that are energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly. However, these programmes often have longer programme durations than those listed on the energy label. Since the introduction of Ecodesign and energy labels programme duration has not been a element of the criteria for defining and stating the overall water and energy efficiency of the machine.
It is in the best interest of the public to ensure that home appliances are not only safe but also efficient. To achieve this, safety standards are set and updated regularly. One of the most crucial components of a safe washing machine is the capacity of its drum that is determined by the number of clothes that can be placed in it without overfilling it.
9kg washers is perfect for larger households that do four or more washes a week and require faster, more economical cycles. Smaller drums are ideal for singles or couples who only washes just a few items per week and want to reduce their energy bills.
Check out the models and ensure they meet the requirements for your plumbing. Measure the space you intend to use the machine in and make sure it is able to fit. Be aware of the electrical and water requirements, as these are specified by your local regulations.
After narrowing down your options, pay close attention to the energy efficiency of the washer. You can do this by looking on the website of your electricity company for the kWh cost, and multiplying it by the energy consumption of the machine to determine the approximate amount of kilowatts it consumes per hour. This is an estimate, and won't give you the exact figures for your particular situation. However it will let you know which washing machines are energy efficient.
Noise
The average washing machine emits between 80 and 90 decibels of sound when in operation. This is just as loud as a vacuum cleaner or a passing motorbike and can cause hearing damage if it is exposed to frequent. We offer a range of models that are low decibel, so you don't have to shout in order to enjoy your film. Be sure to look for models with integrated features that fit inside a cabinet for a seamless finish, and built-under versions that slide under a worktop.
