When we need to take care of our clothes, washing is a mandatory step. But we don't always know how to choose the washing machine. This is the guide that all men need when buying a washing machine.
Choosing the machine can be simple, but it can be the differentiating factor to make it easier or harder to use. Nowadays there are washing machines that do 90% of the programming work of the machine. Since running the machine is the biggest cause of clothing damage for some men, if the machine does this job, 90% of the problems are solved.
Capacity

When we talk about washing machines, we need to decide first of all, the capacity. The capacity of the machines will depend only on the amount of laundry that is washed at a time.
Capacity Selection Table
| 8Kg | 9Kg | 10Kg | |
| 1 person | S / Quilts | C / Duvets | |
| 2 Single People | S / Quilts | C / Duvets | |
| 1 couple | S / Quilts | C / Duvets | |
| 1 Couple + 1 Single Person | S / Quilts | C / Duvets | |
| 1 Couple + 2 Single People | C / S Duvets |
Installation Location

The location of installation is another major issue. There are those who place the integrated machines in the furniture, under the counter, or in a space dedicated to the laundry. The type of installation in no way interferes with the machines ability to function. It is just a physical matter of whether or not the machine fits into space. Just take measurements of where we want to put the machine and take it to the store when we buy the machine.
Functions and Features
This is the part that keeps some men from choosing the machine. But it's not a seven-headed animal if we know what really matters.
Delicate Clothes

The first thing to realize is the kind of clothes we are going to wash. Nowadays there are machines that replace laundries, so you can wash delicate clothes at home. And when we talk about delicate clothes we talk about: Woolen Sweaters, Formal Shirts, Printed, Baby Clothing, Lingerie, or other pieces that by their composition or details need to be washed with some care. Nowadays there are machines that wash all kinds of clothes without having to wash them by hand. So, if applicable, you need to find a machine that has a specific program for delicate clothes. This program adjusts the temperature and spin speed on drying so that the laundry does not get damaged. In addition there are mesh bags where delicate parts are placed to further reduce the risk of damage.
Energy Efficiency

Another very important issue, and usually less considered, is the energy efficiency of the machines. Nowadays there are machines that may have a higher purchase cost but that given their energy efficiency, have a quick payback. Betting on a machine with high energy efficiency is the best decision to make.
Rotations

The rule is simple. The more rotations the machine has, the less water the laundry has at the end of the wash. The better the drying conditions of the laundry, the less rotations the machine needs to have. If you have a large clothesline with good indirect sun exposure, you need fewer revs. If the place where you put your clothes to dry has poor indirect sun exposure, and makes the clothes take longer to dry, you will need to leave the machine with less water. With a tumble dryer the best option is an intermediate spin speed.
Spin Speed Selection Table
| 1200rpm | 1400rpm | 1600rpm | |
| Good sun exposure | X | ||
| Poor sun exposure | X | ||
| Dryer Drying | X |
