Miele’s Honeycomb Washing Drums
June 28, 2009
In the olden days, clothes were washed by the river. Often they were hit on hard rocks to ensure complete removal of stubborn dirt and filth. Later with the invention of detergents, this process came to an end and clothes were soaked in detergent and later washed and rinsed to remove stubborn stains. Technology has come a long way since then and today, there are washing machines to take care of the washing and drying processes.
The clothes you wear determine your individual style as well as your personality. Thus it is important to wear the clothes that are in vogue and trend. More often than not, these clothes come in delicate fabric that need extra care while washing and drying. Though getting it washed and cleaned by professionals is a good option, in the long run dry cleaners prove to be pretty expensive. Taking all these points into consideration, Miele developed and introduced the revolutionary Honeycomb washing machine drum in the year 2004. Ever since, they have been incorporated this patented technology in all their washing machines.
“Necessity is the mother of Invention”; this is a famous proverb. Care and tenderness towards the clothes was the necessity that led to the invention of the Honeycomb washing drums. Furthermore, obtaining ultimate cleansing experience in an environment friendly manner could also be provided by this unique design.
These Honeycomb washing drums have been designed using the best stainless steel. The form a convex pattern to resemble a honeycomb, hence the name. Along with enhancing the cleaning efficiency, it also increases the life of your fabric. This design has led to almost 80% reduction in the number of water exits and water channels. As a result a thin layer of water is created that acts as a cushion to the clothes while the drum rotates.
By reducing the number and size of water exit holes, the chances of clothes getting damaged from snags against the holes is greatly reduced. As the penetration of clothes into the holes is cut down, the life of the fabric gets greatly augmented. Additionally, as the clothes do not get stuck in the holes and block the entry of water, the water extraction process is also believed to be gentle and mild. It has proven to be equivalent to hand washing process.
Owing to its 3D comfortable structure and the size of the drum perforations, the clothes no longer stick to the drum walls after spinning, but fall into a loose heap on the floor as soon as the appliance door is opened. This reduced the amount of creasing in fabric making ironing a simple task as well. Thus with the help of this type of drum fitted into the Miele washing machine, you can manage to increase the longevity of the life of your wardrobe.
