Now, ’super’ wash that takes only 12 mins!
March 17th, 2011 - 1:04 pm ICT by ANILondon, Mar 17 (ANI): All your worries related to washing those piles of clothes may now take a backseat as scientists have developed a new washing machine that cleans clothes in just 12 minutes.
The ’super rapid’ program on the Russell Hobbs machine makes it nearly eight times faster than the average 90-minute wash cycle, reports the Sun.
It could save users two years and four months worth of doing the washing over a lifetime.
Also, a massive 212,415 gallons of water-enough to fill 17 swimming pools-will no longer be needed. And household energy consumption could be cut by 30 per cent.
The 247 pounds machines use a twin jet system that “injects” dirty washing with a water and detergent mix, speeding up the cleaning process. They can cope with a normal family wash and the program is unsuitable only for heavily soiled clothes such as greasy mechanic’s overalls.
Asda store chain’s Nicky Cox said: “This incredible range, currently the speediest in the land, will help families save time, energy and money.” (ANI)
