Buying Guide for Washing Machines

Before purchasing a washer, please feel free to use our guide below to help you along the way. Washing Machines have become more high-tech, stylish and energy efficient than ever before.

Front-Loading Washers
This is the most popular option because of the style and attractive design. The laundry is loaded in the front of these machines. Some of the benefits of front-loading washers are that clothes tend to come out cleaner and the machines typically use less water, detergent and energy. They can also be more quiet than top-loading machines. Some models are stackable with a dryer.

Top-Loading Washers
Top-Loading Washers are the traditional style washer where you load your laundry at the top of the machine. New top load models are built without agitators so that clothes no longer get stuck on one side. New models also are energy efficient. More traditional top load washing machines can have unbalanced loads, however they are commonly priced lower.

Portable Washers
Portable washers are typically compact in size and provide easy portability for small spaces.

Washer-Dryer Combination
These washer/dryers combine the washer and dryer into one machine--once you place your clothes in they will be both washed and dried.  The cycles take longer while the loads are often smaller than a standard washer but offer you an all-in-one space saving solution.
