10 Things Everyone Gets Wrong Concerning Washing Machines 12kg
Why Buy a Washing Machine With a 12kg Capacity?
Washing machines come in different load capacities. These are usually measured in kilograms, and are used to describe how much dry laundry can be stuffed into the machine at a time.
A 12kg washing machine can handle large loads of laundry with ease. Some of them are perfect for families with children, and they come with intelligent features that make laundry time easier than ever before.
Washing machines drum sizes range from 5kg up to 12 kg. The size of the washer you require is determined by your laundry habits and requirements for example, how many washes you wash each week, the type of fabrics and clothes you wash, etc. For instance, a 6-kg or 7kg machine would be suitable for most households. The size is sufficient to handle a standard wash however, it also has programs for smaller loads such as bedsheets and towels.
The drum of a washing machine is generally constructed of plastic or stainless steel and is usually used in top or front load washers. The larger the drum, the more clothes it can fit and wash in one cycle. Don't confuse the washing capacity (in kilograms) with the machine's weight net. These are two different things.
If you're looking to upgrade to a bigger washing machine, consider that the cost of the appliance will be slightly more but in the long run it will save money because it will require less washes and use less electricity and water. Some large capacity washing machines have programs specifically designed for heavy items, and are able to wash heavier loads such as bedsheets and curtains.
The main benefit of a bigger washing machine is that it is able to wash your towels or bedding twice more quickly than smaller machines. This means your laundry will be ready to use much faster and this is especially beneficial for guests who stay with you.
The other main advantage of a large washing machine is that it has plenty of features that make managing your family's laundry that little bit simpler. Some of these include quiet motors and time delay settings that let you choose the time when your wash will begin. There are also settings that can remove staining that is difficult to remove or quick washes as well as ones that allow your clothes to dry faster and with less wrinkles. Additionally, many large capacity washing machines have a dryer built-in so you can complete your laundry in one go rather than switching appliances and saving you both time and energy.
Less energy
The size of a washer isn't just about how much you can wash, it also determines how much energy that your machine consumes. Using less energy means you'll save money on water and electricity bills. A lot of our 12kg washing machines come with many features to help make your laundry greener. For example, some feature an intelligent washing system that recognizes the characteristics of your laundry and chooses the most appropriate washing method, saving your time and energy. Certain machines have a faster spin speed that allows your clothes to dry faster and not hold as much water.
An effective way to compare the energy efficiency of different washing machines is by looking at their star ratings which are available on our website. They are based on the annual energy consumption when the appliance is used according to the instructions. The lower the score, the more efficient the model.
You can save even more money by selecting an A-rated model. Some appliances have a low energy usage of 155 kWh per year. This means you'll be able to run your washing machine for longer and save money on your electricity bill over the year.
If you're looking to cut your energy use even further consider models that have an inverter motor with digital technology. This technology makes use of powerful magnets to provide greater reliability and performance while consuming reduced energy consumption. It's also more quiet than a traditional motor, which makes it ideal for those who live in shared accommodation.
If you prefer, you can select a washing machine that comes with Eco Bubble technology from Electrolux. This can cut down on energy and water consumption by up to 40% while also cutting drying time. This is a particularly good option for families as you can tackle larger loads of laundry in one go and be able to have everything ready for the next day. There are models that have locks for children to keep your children away from the drum while it's being used.

The larger capacity of the washer allows it to wash more loads at one time. This decreases the amount of laundry you have to wash each week and saves you money on energy. These larger models also tend to have more programs for bulky items, like bedding or towels in comparison to smaller machines.

Certain washing machines have built-in detergent dispensers or tanks for fabric softener which can help cut down the amount of detergent and fabric softener you use. This can help you avoid overloading your washer which can impact the cleaning performance and result in damage.
If you're looking to reduce your washing machine’s water and electric usage make sure you choose a model that has a lower water use or an A rating. A lower water consumption will also reduce your impact on the environment.
It is recommended to use a high spin speed for large loads, as it will allow your clothes to dry faster. This is especially useful in the case of an item that involves towels or bedding which take longer to dry.
