With so many models and features available, finding a new washing machine can be a challenge. As energy costs rise, efficiency is becoming a top priority. A Class A energy-efficient washing machine is a smart choice for reducing your household's electricity consumption. This guide highlights the key features of modern appliances and presents a selection of models designed to meet a variety of needs.
To find the right appliance for your home, you should consider other criteria in addition to energy efficiency.
Drum size is a crucial factor. A front-loader with an 8-10 kg capacity is well-suited for families or households with large laundry volumes. Smaller households can often manage with 7-8 kg. Look for special wash programmes that make your daily routine easier. A pet hair removal programme is useful for pet owners, as it effectively removes hair and allergens from fabrics. For allergy sufferers or families with babies, a washing machine with a steam function can be beneficial, as steam helps to sanitise laundry and reduce wrinkles.
A quiet washing machine is particularly advantageous in apartments or for overnight washing. The noise emission is specified in decibels (dB) for both the wash and spin cycles. Models with brushless inverter motors (BLDC) or direct drive systems are often quieter and more durable than appliances with conventional belt drives.
Modern appliances often offer more than just standard programmes. A smart washing machine with app control allows you to start a wash cycle on the go, monitor its status, or download personalised programmes. Features like an add-item function, a delayed start, or an automatic drum clean further enhance convenience.
Here is a selection of models whose specific features and functions make them ideal for different user profiles.

A new EU energy label has been in effect since 1 March 2021. The scale now ranges from A (highest efficiency) to G (lowest efficiency). The former plus classes (A+, A++, A+++) have been discontinued. A Class A washing machine is among the most economical appliances on the market. Energy consumption is stated in kilowatt-hours (kWh) per 100 wash cycles in the Eco 40-60 programme.
Electricity consumption varies depending on the model and drum size. For reference, the models presented here consume between 35 kWh and 49 kWh per 100 wash cycles. Older appliances from the former A+++ class (under the old labelling) can consume significantly more. Switching to a current Class A appliance can therefore noticeably reduce your electricity bills.
A washing machine with a steam function can offer several advantages. The hot steam penetrates deep into the fibres, helping to reduce bacteria and allergens, which is particularly useful for allergy sufferers and families with young children. Additionally, the steam treatment can reduce wrinkles in clothing, which cuts down on ironing. Some programmes also use steam to quickly refresh lightly worn garments.
