Automatic washing machines?
Is there such a thing as an automatic washing machine with a suds saver function.
I've been using twin tubs for many years but am having trouble location a good one for everyday use.
With a twin tub the used water can be reused if not too dirty so water is saved over a long period.
With what I have seen with automatic washers, after each wash the water is emptied and fresh water is added if more washing needs to be done. This I believe is a waste of water if not much is washed the first time.
With a suds saver function on a twin tub, only one lot of water need be used for washing if only a small wash is to be done.
I rarely have a big or dirty wash, we are retired with no children in the home.

Automatic washing machines are very eco friendly nowadays and use very little water. My husband and I have no children at home the same as you ,and I find the automatic perfect for us.............

You can buy an automatic machine that has small load option
Front loaders don't use a lot of a water but unlike a twin tub you cant save the water , your other option if you don't have a lot washing is buy a portable one
These only take small loads

Ahh, memories of Mom doing the laundry back in the forties. Just watch those wringers. She let out some terrible screams when she caught a jug in one.
