Washing Machine
What it is?
Sphere 3.3kg top loader washing machine
Why did we get this brand?
This is the washing machine that came with the caravan when we purchased it.
If we needed to buy a new one tomorrow, would we buy the same?
To be honest, i couldn’t fault it mechanically.
The only negative would be the size of it. I am use to washing on weekends and doing a load of towels, a load of sheets etc. With this machine i have to wash at a minimum every second day. When Michael was working from an office and not from home, it was every day. Some of the uniforms i have worn since living in the caravan have taken the entire load just by themselves. If the choice of available space dictates the size of the machine, then yes, i would not hesitate to purchase another one.
Pros
- a full load takes 38 minutes
- never had a problem
- easy to use
- handy for soaking a couple of small items
- eliminates the need for a wash basket
- quiet
Cons
- doesn’t fit our winter blanket
- have to wash our towels individually
- have to wash the sheets individually
- have to wash almost daily
Can i link it to a different appliance?
No. It is not a smart appliance.
Alternatives
We were not offered an alternative.
When we lived in a house, we had Samsung and LG washing machines. As far as i know, Samsung and LG do not make machines small enough to fit in a caravan.
Replacements
If you needed/wanted to replace the machine, it is very easy to take in and out.
There are brackets and screws holding it in place.
