The real energy savers: washing machines.(Test)(Buyers Guide)(Evaluation)
Looking for the biggest energy savings? Washing machines are where you'll find it. Based on our new energy gauge, the most frugal washer we tested will slice the laundry portion of a typical energy bill by $60 more per year compared with the least efficient model, based on the typical 8-pound load per day. Our latest findings can help you save even more if you live in or around New York, San Francisco, or other areas where electricity rates have risen by as much as 40 percent compared with two years ago. You'll also save regardless of your energy source.
