A front load washer is a type of washing machine that has a door on the front, allowing users to load and unload laundry easily. This design typically uses less water and energy compared to traditional top load washers, making it more environmentally friendly. The tumbling action of the drum helps to clean clothes effectively while being gentle on fabrics. These washers often come with various settings and features, such as different wash cycles and temperature options, to accommodate different types of fabrics and soil levels. Many models also include a high-efficiency feature, which can save on utility bills over time.
