As we see in the picture the little pedal in the front is pushed to run the machine which in turn activates the coaxial bi directional rotation mechanism ie the drum moves in two directions,causing the clothes to wash in two different levels, heights and sections so that the dirt is completely removed from the laundry. Let us take a brief look at different washing mechanisms and parts.

The Eco friendly washing machine consist of lid, casing, three buckets viz outer, mesh and inner, drainage control component, Turbine mechanism motor and the Base. The case extends till the upper edge of the drum, making it easy to move while washing. The outer bucket forms the main source for clockwise rotation. The mesh bucket posses huge wholes for faster dehydration and generates various flows. The inner bucket is designed compact to function as a container that holds water to wash away all the muddy dirt from the clothes at the same time. The outer lid can be kicked away from the device to use it as a laundry basket, thereby optimizing space.

The innovative laundry concept by Shang-Che Wu has gathered many appreciation throughout the world. Since the laundry machine is compact enough to take it along on a long vacation to avoid running to laundry shops.

Capacity is/should be the main focus. Dealing with the laundry of larger families, washing loads just once or twice a week or if having more kids at home an appliance with capacity to wash heavier loads is apt. The capacity of the drum should be checked by oneself and should never rely on the notes on drums.

The second important factor is the size of the appliance and space available to install it. For heavier loads washing but when reeling with space constraints, a higher but thinner appliance suffices. Usually top loading ones are recommended in such cases though quality offered is uncompromising. Front loader too can be relied on in areas with space constraints as it offers space to accommodate the dryer or basket with dirty clothes atop it.

The third aspect is time, water and energy constraints. Front loaders are deemed water efficient and for energy efficiency, energy star rated appliance is recommended. Though quite expensive unlike the regular ones, energy and water saved in the long run is commendable. The age-old principle of switching off the appliance when not in use also saves a little energy.

Length of wash should be checked by the busy people to save time. Number of programs to load different materials and types of clothes and look of controls especially ones with digital display screens and digital buttons too should be well considered when purchasing the washing machines for optimum cleanliness without damaging the materials, colours or texture.

Durability for real price to performance value; special detergent to remove lime scale or water conditioners for optimum performance are other features one has to think of after selecting the ideal appliance. Lime scale easily damages the electrical appliance and a little care is all it takes for the best price to performance values!
