I prefer a simple, classic machine. Honestly, I do not see sense in paying money on advanced options when the single function of the device is to wash the clothes and the temperature and rotation you want. I have a Bosch washimg machine, probably the cheapest one from them, and I am more than happy with my purchase. It does its job well. It does not bother me. It can not dry. I like to keep things simple! However, I have heard that top loaders machines are cheaper and as efficient as front loaders. Get informed and choose the only
washing machine options that satisfy your requirements. Good luck!
