Top 5 large capacity washers

Top 5 large capacity washers

Adeline Hogan

When looking for washers with a larger capacity, choose one with multiple speed settings and washing cycles. Deep cleaning and sanitization are important features for families with young kids. You can choose a front-load or top-load washer, depending on your budget. The machines will be larger, so ensure that there is adequate space for a dryer. If you are interested in a combination set, then check for Energy Star ratings, as large loads could take about five hours to dry and cause a spike in energy bills.

A small tub is a machine that is under 3.2 cubic feet, taking a load of 12 to 14 pounds of clothes. A medium tub has a capacity of about 4.5 cubic feet and can take a load of 16 pounds. A large tub has a capacity of up to 6.2 cubic feet, and can wash a load of 20 to 25 pounds of clothes. If you are planning to buy standalone washers and dryers, then make sure that both have similar capacities. Here are some large capacity washers that are ideal for big families.
