Your first decision will involve choosing between a semi-automatic and a fully automatic machine.

A semi-automatic, as the name suggests, will involve some manual work.

For one thing these are top loading twin tub machines where the washer and the dryer are separate units.

So you have the task of loading and unloading a couple of extra times.

A fully automatic, on the other hand, can be either front.

Or top loading and only requires you to load the dirty laundry and unload them after the wash.

It goes without saying that a semi-automatic is cheaper than the fully automatic machine.

Your usage pattern (how often you will use the machine.

And to wash what type of clothing) will determine the type of washing machine you should buy.

For instance, if you wash very often then a machine with a stainless steel drum is a good investment.

These are slightly expensive but are more durable in the longer run.

However, if you don’t use the machine too often then the high-grade plastic tubs will do.

These won’t cost you as much.

Also, if your wash includes a host of different materials then.

A machine with more wash programmes like soak, mild, delicate, wool, etc will be a worthy investment.

Of course, the prime criterion as always is the bite it will take out of your pocket.
