What to Look For
Drum capacity guide: 7–8kg for 1–3 people, 9–10kg+ for families. Oversizing wastes energy on small loads.
Energy rating A or B is the new minimum standard — older A+++ ratings use different testing methodology.
1400rpm spin speed is the sweet spot — faster means drier clothes but more vibration and fabric wear.
A 15–30 minute quick wash cycle is invaluable for lightly soiled everyday items.

Front loader vs top loader — which is better?
Front loaders are more energy and water efficient, gentler on clothes, and stackable. Top loaders are easier to load if you have back issues and are generally cheaper upfront.
Is a heat pump dryer worth the extra cost?
Yes — heat pump dryers use up to 50% less electricity than condenser dryers. The payback period is typically 2–3 years depending on usage frequency.
