More and more people are making the switch to front load washing machines. What was once a predominantly European product has become increasing popular and accessible in the U.S. Now, the American consumer has more quality choices than ever when it comes to this style of washing machine – reviews are better than ever!
Though front loaders are typically more expensive than their top loading counterpart, they have several marked advantages. Plus, as they have become increasingly popular, competition among competing manufacturers has made them more affordable.
Apart from their attractive design, a distinct advantage to front loading washing machines is their energy efficiency. Generally speaking, they use significantly less water and therefore require less heating energy than other washers.
Load sizes can typically be larger as well. No longer do you have to find other ways to wash large items such as extra thick blankets or comforters. These articles can be washed with relative ease, in part, due to the absence of the agitator used in the front loaders.
The missing agitator contributes to additional advantages. Front loaders tend to be far quieter during the washing process, eliminating the nuisance that ironically began with the increase in indoor laundry rooms. Clothes too, are treated far more gently in the front loaders because of the lack of agitator.
These machines increase the level of convenience as well. Because of the high spin speed of many models, washing times are greatly reduced. Furthermore, because of the speed, clothes tend come out dryer which in turn reduces drying time.
Design features and practicality have also helped increase the popularity of this style of washing machine. The availability of different models in enticing colors and its professional appearance have made it an attractive addition to any household. Its easy-to-fit-in-tight-places flexibility makes it a preferred choice for those grappling with space issues.
Fortunately for the consumer, there are a host of manufactures that offer a front loading washing machine option. Whirlpool is producing several models at various price points. LG electronics offers competitively priced machines rivaling the quality of whirlpool. Some of the higher end machines are made by Miele, Bosch and Euro-Tech. For the more economically priced front loader you might consider Amana, GE, Frigidare or Maytag. It is possible to spend less than $500 or as much as $2,000 on one of these machines, depending on features, style, brand, etc.
Take your time when you compare these top brands. Fortunately prices are becoming increasingly attractive so if you decide on a designer style front loading washing machine you won’t have to pay designer prices.
