What you need to know when choosing a washing machine

All models are subdivided according to the type of loading:

• frontal. Door for loading laundry with a transparent insert. The top surface can be used as a stand. Free space is required to open doors;
• vertical. The hatch is located on top, it is convenient in a small room. At the same cost, such machines are less functional.

One of the main parts of the machine is the tank, made of plastic or stainless steel. It is believed that a metal drum is more durable and more expensive, suitable for larger volume.

Another important element is ten. The classic version of stainless steel. Scale can form on it over time, therefore, with hard water, special protective substances are used. Heating elements with ceramic or nickel plating are more resistant to limescale.

Leakage protection is the installation of sensors on the hose or on the bottom of the machine body. The devices are triggered by water ingress.

When buying a machine, you should pay attention to the washing class (A - the best quality) and spinning. The cost directly depends on the spin class.

On sale you can find machines with an inverter motor. What is it? The main difference from the usual one is that it has no brushes, i.e. rubbing parts, therefore such a motor is more reliable.

Pros:

• quiet operation at high speeds;
• energy efficiency;
• durability.

Minuses:

• high cost of the machine and spare parts.

Conclusion: the inverter motor does not affect the quality of washing, the main advantage is the quiet operation of the device. Perhaps for some, this will be the determining factor when choosing a car.
