Washers and Dryer Comparisons- LG WM2016CW or Duet Sport
LG and Whirlpool washers and dryer have often been pitted against each other. These companies have reached a certain level of competence that it is a no-brainer to choose. One or the other will surely work well. After all, LG and Whirlpool have the innovative technology and efficiency we discerning consumers are looking for.
But to help you decide on these two washers and dryer, we categorizes the essential things that should be in a washer and dryer and found out which of them can deliver.
Design
The first thing we need to look at is the design. They both have see-through glass window on the front door to let you see the washing and tumbling action going on inside. My aesthetic sensibilities prefer the LG design simply because the glass window is lined by a stainless steel design that made it look more sophisticated. However, Whirlpool made it easier for users to open the front door because it has a handle located near the glass door.
Main Features
The main features of LG include a delay washing cycle by up to 9 hours so you can preset the washing time to the time you desire. The electronic control panel is located in the upfront portion of the washer to make it easier to program. And the best feature of all is the direct drive motor that makes the washer work faster in cleaning your clothes but at the same time uses less energy.
The Whirlpool duet comes with a 6 point suspension system feature that makes the washing and drying cycle quieter. Its 1,000 RPM of clothes washing speed also works real fast in getting the grime out of your clothes. In addition to that users have the upper hand in controlling its temperature because of its temperature management feature.
Both of these washers are speedy. They work so well in cleaning your clothes and drying them in just a short time.
Noise
Hands down to both LG and Whirlpool because they have integrated their own technology in these washer and dryers to integrate a whisper-soft washing and drying feature to it.
LG has a direct drive motor that places the motor at the center of the washing machine. This lessens excessive movements thereby preventing vibrations and jerky movements. Whirlpool also has the suspension system feature that works so well without making a lot of noise.
Energy Efficiency
They are both energy efficient, but LG seems to lead the game again because of its direct drive motor. This feature does not only lessen the noise but also lessens the consumption of energy.
Popularity
Based from reviews and consumer accounting, LG seems to be the more popular one. It has been rated significantly higher by consumers than Whirlpool. However, Whirlpool has also received decent ratings so its efficiency as a washing machine should not be undermined simply because it is pitted with LG.
Price
Whirlpool is cheaper by a mere hundred depending on your retailer. But the price is just closely the same. LG just gives a better warranty service because of its direct drive motor feature.
LG and Whirlpool washers and dryer are great on their own. Having said all these, you be the judge on which one is the best washer and dryer for you.
