Best Washing Machines for Basket

Wize Buying Guide for Basket
A large volume capacity can make laundry day faster and easier, even for small families. Besides the ability to wash larger loads less often, a large volume will also make it possible for you to wash rugs, winter jackets and comforters with better results. Some features to consider if you want a larger washing machine:

VOLUME CAPACITY

If volume capacity -- or basket size -- is top on your list, you'll find a range of units sized from "pretty large" to "extra, extra large." Units between 3 to 4 cubic feet are considered large; anything smaller will struggle with comforters and rugs, but larger units might not be worth the extra energy cost. Think about how large your loads will be, how many people do laundry in your household and how often you'll clean irregular items when choosing the basket size.

WASH PRESETS and EXTRA SETTINGS

Even when you're washing in bulk, you want to make sure that your washer can handle delicates, handmade clothes and special fabrics. You may also want extra settings like additional spins and rinses or special features like detergent dispensers. These will save you time, clean your large loads better than your smaller units and keep your home laundry room from feeling like an industrial laundry warehouse.
