![]() Most manufacturers sell pedestal drawers to raise the appliances up off the floor and save some strain on your back. Front-loaders can easily handle big, bulky items, like comforters and sleeping bags, but do require bending to load and unload the tub. Clothes get cleaned when they tumble in a small pool of water that’s added by the machine once it senses the weight and type of load. It uses the least amount of water in each load. ✔️ A front-loading washing machine is the most energy-efficient option. Which you choose is really a matter of personal preference. In Good Housekeeping Institute tests, both types clean so well you likely will not notice a difference in your clothing, though our tests show front loaders do perform a bit better. The first decision you’ll have to make is whether you want a front- or top-loading machine. The machines learn your most frequently used cycles and automatically choose the correct options when you turn them on. In our GH Cleaning Lab tests, we found this unit incredibly easy to use and load and unload, especially for our five-feet and under testers! We liked the speedy, yet gentle and effective cycles, and nice extras, like steam, allowed us to freshen gently worn items for another wear. But unlike two separately stacked appliances, the WashTower is one unit, so if either the washer or dryer needs replacing, the whole thing has to go. ![]() This particular pick comes with an electric dryer, but the unit is also available with a gas dryer for $100 more. When using the LG ThinQ app, you can set and monitor the washer and dryer and even alert the dryer to the load type coming its way. While all front-load washers and dryers can be stacked, the LG WashTower makes the controls easy to reach by placing them in the middle for both appliances, so short folks no longer have to stretch to see and set the dryer cycles.Īnd they didn't stop with the innovation there, built-in sensors use AI technology to detect fabric texture and load size to customize the washing and drying cycles for better fabric care. We found liquid detergent is a cinch to fill without spilling and up to 50 ounces of liquid can go in at a time. ![]() One thing to note, some reviewers say this washer is louder than they would like. Even the quick wash removed a set-in stain in just 20 minutes. In our tests we found the wash cycles speedy and very effective, cleaning our cotton and polyester stain swatches in both warm and cold water. In addition, it has steam cycles, WiFi connectivity, and a one-step wash and dry option that washes and air dries a small load overnight. ![]() All you do is select the cycle and the washer automatically adds the correct amount of detergent. This washer is packed with features, including SmartDispense bulk detergent dispensing. ![]() The full cycle does take eight hours, though, so it's best to run it after your last load of the day or overnight. Our experts were impressed that the drum and door seal were bone dry after a full vent cycle. And the door gasket, dispenser drawer and other internal components are treated with Microban, an additive to help keep mold at bay. The machine pulls in outside air to dry the interior while the drum spins intermittently. It prevents water from puddling inside, which causes that musty smell, with a venting option that automatically dries the inside of the machine and the door seal when your laundry is done. The musty smell of a front-loading washer is a thing of the past with this GE washing machine. ![]()
