If you have decided to buy the best top loading washing machine in UAE, you’ll still need to make several choices. What should be the colour and material of your chosen washer? Should it be semi-automatic or fully automatic? If these seem like a daunting task, relax because we’ve brought you help. Our team has researched and listed the best brands and types to help you shop easily and with confidence.
Tips To Choose
Consider these when buying your top-loading washing machine:
Washing function: Based on what suits your budget and needs the best, you can take your pick from fully-automatic or semi-automatic washing machines. Though semi-automatic washing machines would be slightly cheaper, they’ll need a lot of human intervention. Here, you’ll have to manually remove the clothes from the washing tub into the drying tub. In contrast, fully-automatic machines need nominal human intervention and their wash cycles would wash and dry your clothes at one go.
- Capacity: Depending on how big your family is and the type of clothes you plan to wash, you should choose your washing machine’s capacity. Remember that while some heavyweight clothes like jeans need little space, some lightweight ones like blankets would take a lot of space.
- Material of the drum: Drums can be made of plastic, porcelain-enamel, or stainless steel. Enamel drums can chip and rust. Though plastic can last longer, it can’t match the longevity of stainless steel. So, it’s best to invest in stainless steel drums that are long-lasting and capable of withstanding high spin speeds.
- Wash settings and features: Since you’ll be washing a variety of clothes and fabrics, it’s ideal to look for machines that offer multiple wash settings to suit your washing needs. Additionally, you need to look for beneficial features like digital display, LED lights, transparent top lid, rotary controls or touchpad, etc.
Tips To Taking Care
Once you’ve finished washing your clothes, you need to keep your machine’s top lid open to dry out the moisture and dampness. In case the wash included a lot of dirty and greasy load, you should use a damp cloth to clean the machine’s walls. To avoid putting your washing machine motor under a lot of pressure, make sure not to wash rubber mats and heavy carpets.
Based on the type of clothes you want to wash, ensure to choose the right machine settings (strong, medium, or normal). If you notice rusted spots in your drum or reddish-orange spots in your washed clothes, you could add two cups of lemon juice to a drum of hot water and run it for one wash cycle to remove rust. If that doesn’t help, you may have to change your drum. However, make sure your water pipes aren’t rusted because if they are, you’ll need to replace them.
