Why Buy a Front Loading Washer?
The traditional top-loading washer does its job relatively well, especially when compared to the washing drums and rollers previous generations used. A top loading washer’s tub sits vertically in the machine and has an agitator in the middle that churns the water and clothes together. It drains, refills with clean water, agitates again, drains, rinses and spins. It does all this in a relatively short amount of time. And since the opening is on top, it’s easy to reach in without bending. On the other hand, top loaders use a lot of water, and we know that today this is a very vital factor. Water conservation is more important than ever. Also, top loaders are hard on your clothes. T-shirts, for example, will often stretch out over the course of a few months. The front-loading machine follows the same basic method, but has many advantages over the standard top-loaders. The front-loading machine’s greatest advantage may well be its energy efficiency. The front load uses up to 60% less water
