Dual-Load Washing Machines

The TWIN Wash System from LG Allows Consumers to Wash Two Loads at Once

— April 3, 2016 — Art & Design
The new TWIN Wash system from LG allows consumers to wash two loads at the same time for a more efficient laundry solution. For those with big families or those who are simply pressed for time, this smart washer helps to turn a time-consuming chore into a speedy task.

The TWIN Wash system consists of two separate washing units designed for different sized loads. The front-loading washer on the top can be used for larger loads, while the LG SideKick unit on the bottom is designed for smaller items such as delicates. The washer is also integrated with LG's smart home platform, which allows users to monitor the progress of their washing directly from their smartphone.

The TWIN Wash system not only allows users to wash two loads at once, but it also uses TurboWash technology to cut washing time in half. As a result, the smart washer helps consumers get through more loads of laundry in significant less time.
