When the first washing machine became available in the market in 1797, it instantly became one of the most staple appliances in the whole world. Not only are they bought by house owners, but even those living in apartments, rented flats, and even RVs invest in a good washing machine!
However, washing machines aren’t that simple anymore. They used to be water plus detergent, as easy as that. But now, you already have to look into a delayed timer, energy-saving mode, child lock technology, and more!
Nowadays, buying a washing machine can be really confusing. This is why we’ve come up with a quick list of the essential features that you really have to look for in buying a washing machine.
Punch-washing function
The punch-washing function is a patented technology in which the washing machine gives a pulsed non-symmetrical water flow. Aside from the traditional circular flow, it also has an up-and-down motion, reducing the risk of entanglement inside the washer.
Aside from this, it also reduces the friction within the clothes in the washer. Thus, reducing the risk of any tear on the fabrics.
Delicate to heavy spinning
Most luxury fashion items are made with a delicate fabric. Since regular washing machines have a high risk of running their fibers, most owners either bring their luxury clothes to laundromats or just hand wash them.
The thing is, you don’t really have to do any of these.
There are already lots of washing machines that offer a delicate washing feature. Compared to traditional washing, this feature has less spin speed, controlled water temperature, and even regulated soap use. This way, you don’t have to worry about your luxury fashion items!
Controllable water temperature
It has long been proven that washing clothes with warm water have multiple benefits.
Gone are the days when you have to go to professional laundry shops just to deep-clean your rugs and carpets. You can already do that by using warm water and a special cleaning solution. Remove stubborn stains, dirt, and grime without spending too much!
Aside from this, the use of warm water also reduces the risk of fading and shrinking on some special fabrics. So it would really be handy if your washing machine can instantly turn tap water into a warm one!
Universal-fit waterhose 
For those living in the city or those in RVs, a designated area for a laundry room might not be possible. This is why it’s important to have a universal-fit water hose.
This way, you can simply connect your washing machine to any water source. From your bathroom sink or even to the public water source while RVing!
Controlled water flushing
Lastly, as much as possible, look for a washing machine that has varied flushing methods such as quick, bulk, or delayed.
The controlled water flushing feature is especially important for people who are living in tiny spaces and RVs. This way, you can avoid flooding your bathroom (and damaging your drainage in the process) or dispose of the water in a proper area if you’re traveling in an RV.
