Washing power
Article Abstract:
An evaluation of 12 newly-available washing machines revealed that all the washing machines performed reasonably well. However, the three new washer driers tested all had problems. Buying a washer drier can be cheaper than buying two appliances, but washer driers are not reliable and the machines tested did not dry well. The best washing machines of the nine tested were the Miele Premier Novo W842, the Ocean WMP 1000 A, the Bosch WFF 2001, and the AEG OKO Lavamat 61300. The Miele had the greatest energy efficiency and ease of use, but it was significantly more expensive than the other models.
