Whether you buy a used car from a dealer or an individual: Test drive the car under varied road conditions â on hills, highways, and in stop-and-go traffic. Ask for the car's maintenance record from the owner, dealer, or repair shop.
Other top-loading washing machines can spin as fast as 1600 rpm, although these models are usually more expensive. While spin speeds fluctuate by manufacturer and model, most top-loading washing machines have spin rates of about 800 rpm rather than 1600 rpm, which are rarer.
When I started in 1976, most front loading washing machines spun at around 700 rpm or less. Then (circa 1976) Hoover brought out the A3058 washing machine, which they proudly announced was the fastest spinning front loading washing machine in the UK. Its top spin was 800 RPM.
