Front loading v/s top loading washing machines: A detailed comparison

front loading or top loading. Let's do a comparison with respect to all the vital aspects to help you decide better.

Efficiency: A top loading machine needs quite a lot of water to soak all the clothes in the drum. A front loading one, in comparison, uses only one third of the quantity, since the drum is placed horizontally. With every turn, the machine uses gravity to keep the clothes in contact with water. Moreover, a top loading machine empties the soap water and needs fresh water for a second time for the rinsing cycle, while a front loading machine sprays clean water on the clothes while the drum continues spinning, saving many gallons in the process. Further, due to the lack of the presence of an agitator in a front loading machine, more clothes can fit in each cycle. Also, a front loading machine can reach a speed of up to 1000 rpm, while a top loading one only manages 650 rpm, which results in lesser energy consumption in the first case.

Manual interference: Once the wash cycle has been initiated in a front loading machine, you can't add any other dirty clothes, which is a possibility in case of top loading machines. The front door is locked till the end of the cycle. And while there are some models that give a time lapse for the execution of the command, the situation more or less remains the same.

Cloth Care: It is a known fact that agitators tend to have a significant damaging effect on clothes. And since there is no agitator in a front loading machine, clothes washed in it tend to have a longer life compared to the top loading counterpart.

Ease of use: If the user has a problem in bending, a top loading machine is a hands-down choice, since a front loading machine requires one to be in this position for quite some time.

Price: This is one area where front loading machines suffer a massive blow, as they are considerably more expensive than top loading ones, in every sense of the word, although in the long run, one can also consider the lower energy costs in case of front loading machines, but that depends purely on the usage.

Detergents: One can use any kind of detergent in case of a top loading machine, but when we talk about a front loading one, there are lesser number of choices available.

In the end, the fact of the matter is that while front loading machines have many advantages like lower water and energy consumption, as well as better care for clothes, their weak point, i.e., the high initial cost drives consumers to the top loading variants, which are close to half the price of a decent front loading washing machine.

In the end, it's really up to the users to choose which one of these fits their requirements, but in any case, Samsung washing machines are the best choice, since they offer the best value for money with top of the line quality to suit every need in the most optimum manner. There is a wide range to consider, and there's one for every budget.

Samsung semi automatic washing machines: Convenient technology for every home

Washing clothes is an essential household chore that can't be avoided, unless one can afford to give clothes to the laundry, which is not a minor expense by any means. To help make this task easier, Samsung has come up with a range of affordable semi automatic washing machines that can bring the magic of technology in every household to transform this tiresome job into a really convenient and stress free activity.

The first benefit of Samsung semi automatic washing machines is their rust proof body. This is an important factor since washing machines need to be constructed out of a material that does not rust even after repeated contact with water. Unlike conventional products by other brands, Samsung washing machines have a plastic body, which obviates any chance of corrosion.

Coming to the washing part, Samsung's very own Silver Nano technology gives sparkling cleanliness to clothes in every wash cycle repeatedly. The methodology comprises of three stages of wash. In the first stage, the machine creates silver ions by melting silver ceramic crystals and release them into the water. Then, these ions get permeated into the clothes present in the wash drum; and finally, the clothes come out odor free, in a better condition (with lower wear and tear) and are free from bacteria for up to one week.

Another addition to Samsung washing machines that helps in flawless cleaning is the double storm pulsator, which combines vertical and horizontal water currents to give a better washing treatment without the clothes getting entangled, which is always a problem in case of more powerful washing machines. Further, the dust and foreign particles like lint are collected in the most effective manner with the Magic Filter, that is situated at a lower level in order to give it the maximum reach.

The tub walls of Samsung washing machines also help in washing, since they give a scrubbing effect to the clothes, which is a much more effective means of cleaning that hand scrubbing, and also reduces human effort in a majority of the cases, especially in case of cuffs and collars. And once the washing and rinsing has been done with, the super dry technology with a 10 minute spin dry time, which is a first in Indian washing machines. Giving double time to the dry cycle compared to other washing machines ensures that clothes are as dry as can be. The air turbo drying system also plays its part in ensuring a better drying cycle with dual air intakes that draw more air to give a more effective dry cycle in less time. And to top it all, Samsung washing machines have a clear transparent window that is made from a scratch proof material, to give a clear view of all that is going on inside the machine at all stages of the entire washing cycle. Even in case of power cuts, which pose a serious problems to other machines, the electro mechanical wash timer starts the washing cycle from where it had stopped. Truly, Samsung semi automatic washing machines are here to make the otherwise tiring process of washing clothes an extremely convenient one.
