Up to 7 kg is enough for 1 or 2 people, 8 or 9 kg suits most families, and 10 kg or more takes a double duvet or a big family's washing in one go.
How much is a good washing machine in Cyprus?
An 8 or 9 kg washing machine sold at two or more Cyprus shops starts at €299 today. Pay more for a quieter inverter motor, steam or app control; the washing itself is much the same.
Is a washer-dryer worth it?
If you have no balcony or line, yes: a washer-dryer washes and dries in one machine, from €469 in Cyprus today. It dries a smaller load than it washes and takes longer than a separate dryer.
What spin speed do I need?
1,200 to 1,400 rpm is plenty for most homes. Faster spins leave clothes a little drier, which helps in winter, but are harder on delicate fabrics.
