A drum washing machine is a type of fully automatic washing machine.

The fully automatic washing machines sold on the market today are generally divided into three categories:

1. Front-loading side-opening drum washing machine

The earliest invention was the front-loading side-opening drum washing machine. The side-opening drum-type washing machine was invented in Europe. It is good at washing silk, cotton and other fabrics. It does not get tangled or abraded. It ensures that the clothes are not damaged during washing and has good heating measures. But it also has its bad side. Due to factors such as the non-winding and wear-free washing method, this washing machine takes a long time to wash, has poor cleaning performance, and consumes a lot of water and electricity, which is several times that of other washing machines, especially the stainless steel inner cylinder. , the noise generated is larger. This kind of washing machine is suitable for families with a higher living standard, who wear more high-end fabrics such as silk, pure wool, and cotton, and who change clothes frequently.

2. Pulsator top-opening washing machine

The latest washing machine invented is the pulsator top-opening washing machine invented by Asians. There are many brands on the market. This type of washing machine is characterized by short washing time, low water consumption, and high cleanliness, which is several times that of the drum type. Because the inner cylinder is made of plastic material, it makes less noise, and the lid can be opened. The washing liquid can be used repeatedly and is more economical to use. This kind of washing machine is suitable for families who live in poor greenery and have a large amount of air dust. They change clothes every 2 to 3 days on average. The main focus is on cleanliness, and the clothing fabrics are mainly chemical fiber and acrylic fiber.

3. Agitator-type washing machine

The other type is the agitator-type washing machine invented by the Americans. Due to the relatively strong wind and sand in the Americas, people mainly wear clothing with thick fabrics such as denim clothing. Therefore, they are suitable for agitator washing machines. This kind of washing machine has a very high cleaning performance, which is more than ten times that of a pulsator washing machine. However, because the cleaning performance is directly proportional to the wear rate, it will damage the clothes. This kind of washing machine is rare on the market. .
