Washings machines come in two versions: front loaders and top loaders. A top load washer was very common just few years ago, but these days, not so much.
One of the advantages of top load washers is the high. For people with back issues and older population, this is the perfect washing machine because they don’t have to duck every time they need to load/empty the machine.
On the other hand, those top loading washers have some series disadvantages like :
Smaller capacity- they usually have smaller capacity if we compare them to the front load washers. That’s a problem if you have a large family and you don’t like doing laundry every day.
They are not so efficient like the front loaders. They spend more water, more power and more detergent. Sad to hear, but that’s true.
Now, I know I gave you some reasons why you shouldn’t buy them if you are a healthy person, but there is something I didn’t cover yet in this article and that is the price. Top load washers can be found with very low price tags if you know how to look. Cheap washing machines do exist, but you need to compromise on the quality.
I remember when I bought my first washer. When my wife Kim and I got married, we got a brand new washing machine from my parents and that beast worked for 12 years. One day I came from work and my wife told me the washing machine is dead and she does not even want to fix it because there are some great washing machines in the market and that we should get a new, better washer. After 2 days of thinking, I used the magical Google and bought our LG washer. I tell you, they know what they are doing.
Anyway, I gave you the tools, now go and buy the washer you desire.
Hope I was useful.
