Freestanding washing machines

When buying a freestanding washing machine, several key factors should guide your decision. First, consider the size and capacity. Ensure the machine fits the available space in your home, and choose a drum capacity that meets your laundry needs. For smaller households, a 6-7 kg drum may be sufficient, while larger families should opt for an 8-10 kg capacity to handle bigger loads more efficiently.

Another important factor is spin speed (RPM), which indicates how fast the drum spins. Higher RPMs (1200-1600) generally result in better water extraction and shorter drying times. However, higher speeds may cause more wear on delicate fabrics, so machines with adjustable spin speed settings offer more flexibility.

Consider the range of wash programs offered by the machine to ensure your laundry is cleaned effectively while protecting fabric quality. Look for programs such as quick wash, delicate, wool, and eco modes. Some freestanding models also include advanced features like steam cleaning, allergy care, and auto-sensing technology that adjusts the cycle based on load size and fabric type.

Energy efficiency is crucial for reducing long-term operating costs. Choose machines with a high energy rating (B+ or above) to save on electricity and water consumption. Finally, assess the build quality and durability, including the brand's reputation, warranty, and customer reviews, to ensure your investment will last over time.
