Buyer Guide to Choose Washing Machines
The Right Washing Cycle for Each Garment
Each washing machine is a world of its own, all wash hot, very hot, even up to 95 °, and all today have a cold wash cycle, up to 20 °, but which one best combines these functions with ours daily routine?
Sometimes too complicated programs make the man of the house desist from the approach to the care of the linen: too many commands frighten, and time is never enough to read the instructions of yet another household appliance.
But the garments that need special attention are those that require specific washing programs. There are washing machines that can automatically recognize the type of load and the quality of the items to be washed, an optimal solution, but for which you must be willing to pay a decidedly high price.
What the Stars Have to Do with It?
Once it was expected to return to the economic range to make the most expensive appliances work, now you can choose to pay more attention upstream by selecting an Energy Star certified washing machine that can reduce electricity consumption even during complete washing cycles.
Our ranking offers some suggestions for choosing the models that can save water and electricity, both by selecting the cheapest washing cycle and by directly selecting a product that belongs to the most exciting consumption classes, from A to A +++.
Load from Above or Below?
The needs for space optimization do not imply a categorical renunciation of the quality of the product to take home. On the market, you can find the most popular models with front-loading, where to open the porthole, you bend over your knees.
On the other hand, the top-loading models, in addition to having more consideration for our joints, allow you to take advantage of the space in height, thinning by a few centimeters in thickness, but without losing in terms of overall load capacity.
How to Use the Washing Machine
Aim for Energy Saving
Choosing a model is not a good thing to select a product with an energy class lower than A ++. In this way, you will be able to optimize the type of washing, with a lower cost in the bill. The higher price will be repaid by moderate consumption.
Check the Goodness of The Connections
A good gesture is to check the goodness of the wall connections with the water pipe. Check that the space is accurate and well proportioned and that there are no leaks and that the closures are tight.
Keep the Pan Clean
A good rule of thumb is to keep the container clean and free from the remains of detergent. With the use of an antibacterial, you can avoid the proliferation of moss and harmful substances that can ruin the washing machine over time and create bad smells on the clothes.
Adjust the Load According to The Capacity
Make the most of your washing machine’s load capacity without exceeding the quantities but taking the best in terms of measurements and overall load. Do not overload the basket with an excessive quantity of cloths that could strain the mechanism and the internal motor too much.
Set the Right Washing Program
The availability of different options depending on the type of washing allows you to take advantage of the type of washing available for delicate, natural, and synthetic fabrics. The correct preparation will allow you to wash in line with the standards and no surprises once you open the door.
Pour the Cleaning Tools Into the Right Containers
Use the spaces made available for the correct pouring of products such as detergent and fabric softener. Our advice is to carefully read the instructions on the instruction manual so as not to confuse the drawers dedicated to one and the other.
Check the Clothes
A useful practice is to check inside pockets and zips present in clothing before each wash. In this way, you can be sure that coins and other objects do not wander in the compartment dedicated to clothes and can end up stuck inside the washing machine.
Set the Correct Washing Temperature
In addition to washing programs for specific items, the washing machines have a knob or set to adjust the temperature, which is more effective in the case of stubborn dirt or in the presence of specific clothing.
Check the recommended temperature on the dress label, and if the dress should be washed by hand.
Frequently Asked Questions
Who Invented the Washing Machine?
If you look at the model most similar to our current laundry washing machines, the invention is due to the American Thomas Bradford and his rudimentary appliance, created in 1860.
The structure was composed of an octagonal-shaped basket placed inside of a larger box with soapy water. Taking advantage of the movement of an external crank, the internal part was turned, thus proceeding with washing the clothes.
Others argue that the real model that started the trade and manufacture of this useful tool was born fifteen years later thanks to William Blackstone, who was also the first to put the instrument into production, at the time somewhat rudimentary but functional for the purpose.
Where to Put Detergent and Fabric Softener in The Washing Machine?
When setting up the washing machine, the program must be managed in the best way according to the type of cloth used. Then comes the age-old dilemma of where to place the detergent and where the fabric softener.
The first step is to open the tray inside which there are compartments. Most of the time they are marked with some symbols: I, II, and a logo reminiscent of a little flower.
Detergent must be placed in the first two, in section I if a prewash program has been set or in section II if a different program is carried out. The logo with the flower instead is the one intended for fabric softener.
Once the symbol is connected to the function, you’re done. At that point, however, do not overdo the dosage.
Where to Put Bleach and Descaler in The Washing Machine?
For those looking for information related to the use of bleach in the washing machine, the question is soon resolved. The letter C is in fact designed specifically for this other element.
It must be said that lately it has not been encountered so frequently also because some have questioned the effective effectiveness of bleach, highlighting more certain problems related to the corrosive action of the same.
As regards the anti-limescale action, you can opt for liquid support and it must be inserted in the same tray where the detergent is positioned, usually indicated with sign II.
Whoever then relies on a dosing ball can also manage in this way the anti-scale, after having carefully consulted all the appropriate indications.
How to Clean the Washing Machine?
For the external part, it is sufficient to proceed with cleaning with a detergent and a damp cloth, taking care not to neglect the porthole and the plastic parts that may have stained over time. The compartments on which detergent and fabric softener are placed can usually be removed from their housing.
Once you have done this, you can wash the inside with a mild detergent, paying attention also to the upper nozzles through which the water passes. As for the basket, a little vinegar in the detergent section and a vacuum wash should help eliminate limescale.
Why Doesn’t the Washing Machine Wash Properly?
The main causes are certainly poor maintenance and incorrect management of the detergent. Some parts, such as the filter and the basket must be monitored periodically, so as to eliminate the accumulation of dirt and more.
A dosage below the recommended level produces poorly washed laundry, as well as water with an excess of limescale. To resolve the issue, in this case, it is advisable to insert an ad hoc filter and not forget the regular maintenance of the appliance.
