Front-Load Washers

Debating between front-load and top-load washers? Not sure which option is the best for your lifestyle and home? Let's look at the benefits of front-load washers to see if they're the right choice for your laundry room.

The main difference between front-load and top-load washers is that front-load washers don't have agitators, which are the vaned spindles in the wash basin that rub against your clothes to loosen dirt. Machines without agitators use less energy and less water per cycle overall, and they clean your garments just as well as machines with agitators. Because a front loading washing machine is energy efficient, it significantly reduces your utility bills. Another perk of front-loading washers is their combination of large load capacity and space-saving design that allows you to fit more items inside while taking up less room. A front load machine is stackable, so you can place a gas dryer or an electric dryer on top of it.
 
Some front-loading large capacity washers also come with the convenience of quick wash cycle options that wash clothes quickly without sacrificing cleaning performance. This type of washing machine has high speed spin cycles that can reduce drying time and energy consumption.

Last, large front load washers are gentle on your clothes, but tough on stubborn stains.

Do front-load washers sound appealing to add to your home appliances collection? If so, it's time to own a front load washing machine. Shop Town Appliance's selection of them today to find one that meets your clothes washing needs.
