A few decades ago, washing turned into a kind of ritual among housewives. This is a huge number of basins in the bathroom, tired of rinsing the back and lack of manicure, especially after washing bedding and outerwear. Now there is no problem with this, as in almost every family there is such a wonderful helper as a washing machine.
Choosing a washing machine
Washing machines are distinguished by their power, number of revolutions, a set of functions, energy class, size. But in general, all models can be divided into: devices with front loading of linen and with vertical loading. Front-loading washing machine is extremely popular in Russia. Many buyers give her preference because of her appearance, namely, because of the presence of a beautiful porthole in which you can spy on the washing process. Also, due to their size, such washing machines will fit perfectly into the kitchen interior. The front-loading assistant can be easily installed under a common countertop thanks to height adjustment and a removable top cover for some models.
Less popular in our country is a top-loading washing machine. Although in Western countries the opposite is true - such models are in first place in popularity. Russian buyers do not really like their appearance, limited design and the inability to put anything on the washing machine compared to similar front-loading appliances.
Vertical loading: pluses without minuses
A top-loading washing machine (reviews of which confirm this) has several advantages over front-loading. It is compact and comfortable, especially in small bathrooms. To open it does not require additional space, and most importantly - it is more reliable, since the drum of such a machine is held on both sides by two bearings, so they are less likely to fail.
It is believed that a top-loading washing machine - consumer reviews confirm this - is quieter. Due to the fact that the hatch is located on top of such units, rubber gaskets are less likely to fail, therefore, water leakage during breakage is practically excluded.
The advantages of vertical loading
Satisfied owners note that a top-loading washing machine (the reviews speak for themselves) allows you to report laundry during washing, and it also wrinkles less during drying. A model with a vertical loading capacity of 6 kilograms of laundry has smaller dimensions compared to a device with front loading. The location of the program installation buttons is high, it is especially convenient in families where small children, therefore, do not worry that the child will switch the program during washing.
Due to the fact that the laying of linen is carried out from above, a washing machine with a vertical loading, reviews confirm this several times, it will be convenient to use for elderly people and those who find it difficult to bend down to lay laundry.
