Shout out to our 30 year old Miele washing machine

That will cost you a shit load of energy does it?

[-] Sparky@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 week ago

I wouldn't say it uses an unreasonable amount of power to run. I may be wrong, but a water heater and some pumps can't be more efficient other than insulation so it wouldn't waste power to heat the surrounding air.

[-] PoopBuffet@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

Modern washing machines auto-balance the load, which negates the need for the massive weights you get inside older washing machines for stability. The motors in older ones also have to work harder because of this since it is trying to spin an unbalanced drum. I also assume modern ones have more efficient brushless motors etc.

The load balancing thing definitely applies to the front loading washing machines we have here, no idea about top-loading.

Ours is front loading, and I'm sometimes scared to take a dump in the same room when the thing is spinning full speed, as the dryer on top of it bounces and shakes aggressively, most likely due to the lack of auto balancing. I guess I didn't think of the inefficiencies there
