There is absolute truth in this saying when it comes to washing machines. A £300 washing machine can only be produced with lower quality parts, components and processes. If you want a better quality washing machine that lasts along time and is better for the environment – it will cost a little more.
Every Ebac machine allows you to pause the program mid-cycle and add any garments to the wash. We don't need special doors to do that.
Whilst auto dosing can be useful, the dosing drawers frequently get clogged up with detergent and are prone to overdosing as you cant see how much they are putting into the drum.
Steam generation to remove wrinkles is a complex technology that can easily break down. Every time you add more technology to a product there are more things that can go wrong.
Special bubbles, holes in the drum, and filters are all unnecessary complexities that won't improve your washing performance.
In our research, 87% of families use the same 3 programmes every time they use their machine. Many people regret buying technology-based machines as they either never use the technology, or it breaks down a lot.
Ensure you buy a machine like Ebac’s E-care range where you can easily vary and set program time, temperature and spin speed. Having this flexibility and the ability to save it is really important. Sometimes we need a 15 min quick wash other times we need a 4-hour big wash to remove stains. Ebac offers you this.
Buying a cheap machine with a 1-year warranty is a false economy. If it breaks after 1 year, your £300 ‘bargain’ is now a £600 disaster as you have to replace it.
If you have stored hot water or solar power – yes hot fill machines are faster and will save you money. They are also better for the environment. However, if you have a combi boiler then there is no great benefit to buying one.
There is an optimal spin speed to reduce the most amount of water without damaging clothes. Our research has shown this to be between 1400- 1600 RPM. That is the optimal speed to remove the most amount of water without damaging clothes. Any more and there are diminishing returns. 1800 RPM spin speed only removes a little more water but damages clothes a lot more.
