A washing machine or a washer dryer is one of the most essential appliances in any household. It keeps your clothes and fabrics clean and fragrant while saving you a lot of time and energy. When choosing a laundry machine for your home, there are four main factors to consider: capacity, size, type and features you might need.

Here are our detailed guide on How to choose a washing machine.

Washing machine size and capacity

There are two terms related to capacity that you might need to know before choosing a new washing machine for your laundry room: Washing capacity and Load capacity.

While the washing capacity refers to the maximum amount of clothes (in kg) that can be washed in one cycle, load capacity is about how many pieces of clothing you can put in each cycle.

Example: Let’s say you have a 8kg washing machine. This means:

• In terms of washing capacity, it can hold up to 8kg of dry clothes in each cycle.
• In terms of load capacity, it can hold up to 30 pieces of clothing in each cycle.

Choose washing machine capacity by family size

Here is a brief guide on how to choose the right washing machine according to your family size:

Choose washing machine by load capacity

While the above capacity guide is easy to follow, you may find yourself questioning, "What if I have a small family of two or three, but we usually have heavy-duty loads for each cycle?". The below guideline on washing machine capacity and the corresponding number of clothes it can load might come in handy:

Washing machine sizes (dimensions)

The washing machine you choose must accurately fit within the allocated space. In the below washing machine size chart, you will find common dimension ranges of a normal washing machine:

Washing machine types

Washing machines come in different types:

• Front-load washing machines: As the name suggests, these machines are loaded from the front. They’re well suited also for bigger items.
• Top-load washing machines: They’re usually a bit cheaper than front-load washers, but can be a bit rougher on your clothes if overloaded.
• Washer dryers: These 2-in-1 washing machines combine the strengths of a washer and a dryer to save you space and money.

Washing machine features

• Energy and water savings: Modern washing machines and washer dryers can help you save plenty of energy and water.
• Care for delicates: Many modern washing machines and washer dryers have special wash programs for cleaning delicate fabrics or even wool.
• Self-cleaning feature: Self-clean function helps to maintain the performance of your washing machine if run on a regular basis.
• Automatic mixing of detergent and softener: This feature helps to protect every fibre by optimally blending water, detergent and softener before entering the drum.
