What are the tips for choosing a drum washing machine?

1. Function selection: At present, the functions of washing machines on the market are becoming more and more complete, and some functions are basically unnecessary, so users should choose according to their own needs. For example, the automatic foam detection function is generally only needed for clothes made of high-quality fabrics; there are also automatic drying detection and dehydration balance detection.

2. Washing capacity selection: Of course, the capacity also varies, and users should still consider the number of people in their family. Generally, the capacity of drum washing machines on the market is 4.5KG, 5.2KG, 6KG, 7KG, 8KG, 9KG, 10KG, etc. The most common is the 5.2KG washing machine, which is suitable for a family of 3-4 people and can wash about 10 kilograms of clothes.

3. Check the speed of the drum washing machine: As the name implies, it is the speed at which the machine runs, which also includes the driving method. Generally, direct drive is higher-grade than belt indirect drive. In addition, the dehydration speed of the drum washing machine is also a determining factor of the grade. Usually, the 600 revolutions per minute are mostly old models without variable speed, and the grade is lower; while the washing machines with variable speeds above 800 revolutions can adjust the spin speed according to the fabric of the clothes; the speed of the drum washing machine can reach up to 1200 revolutions. Generally speaking, most of the drum washing machines with a speed of more than 1000 have a quick washing function, and the shortest time is about 25 minutes, which can avoid long-term washing of the washing machine.

4. The door opening angle and door opening size of the drum washing machine: Generally speaking, the larger the data of these two, the better. This will make it more convenient to store and retrieve clothes, and it will appear to be more upscale, but it will often be more expensive.

5. Look at the brand: If you want a good product, a big brand is the first choice, both in terms of quality and after-sales service. It is recommended that users should consult the technical source, manufacturer background and production history of drum washing machines when purchasing.

The above are the tips for buying drum washing machines that the editor shared with you. I hope it will be helpful to you.

Why can't the drum washing machine be turned on?

The drum washing machine has a safety lock function. The lid cannot be opened when the power is on. It may be that you cannot open the lid when the power is on. There is a heating element inside the drum washing machine. When the door is closed, the heating element heats up, the bimetallic strip is bent by the heat, and the main power is turned on and the door lock is locked at the same time. After a period of time after the power is turned off, the bimetallic strip cools and resets. The door may not be opened because the heating element is damaged; a malfunction of the electric door lock of the drum washing machine may also cause the washing machine door to be unable to open.

You can tap the cover handle with your hand to reset the plastic pin by vibration and then open the door. If the door still cannot be opened after a long time after the knob is turned to the stop position, you can turn the knob to any position again. After a few seconds, you will hear the door lock "click" and the door can be opened.

Why does the drum washing machine not need to drain?

Because the drum washing machine uses the upper drainage method, the drainage pump is at the bottom of the washing machine, and there is no water shut-off valve. If the drainage pipe is placed directly on the ground, water will flow in from the top and out from the bottom, and the washing machine will not work properly, so the drainage pipe should be hung at a height of 60-80 cm.
