It is hard to believe that it is spring and that Earth Day is just around the corner. This is also the time to start spring cleaning around your home (aff). Did you know that Best Buy has the latest in energy and water efficient appliances from entry-level to premium to help you save time and money?
Why should you use use an ENERGY STAR certified Washer? First, they use less energy. On average, a new ENERGY STAR certified clothes washer uses 280 KWh of electricity and can save you $40 a year on your utility bills compared to a standard model. They also use less water. A full-sized ENERGY STAR certified clothes washer uses 13 gallons of water per load, compared to the 23 gallons used by a standard machine. That's a savings of more than 3,000 gallons of water, per year! When we changed washers we definitely saw this difference! Lastly, is your washer over 10 years old? Washers built before 2003 are significantly less efficient than newer models. If you have a standard clothes washer that is over 10 years old, it's costing you, on average $180 a year!
Why should you use an ENERGY STAR certified Dryer? First, they use 20 percent less energy than conventional models without sacrificing features or performance. You are able to use sensor drying (which honestly is one of my favorite features). ENERGY STAR dryer models incorporate advanced moisture sensors to help you reduce your dryer’s energy use. This feature ensures that your dryer will automatically shut off when clothes are dry instead of running constantly with a dry load. They also have a low heat setting. Longer drying cycles on a low heat setting use less energy. When you purchase an ENERGY STAR certified clothes dryer, look in the informational materials shipped with the product for which cycle was tested for certification and how the dryer’s other cycles or settings may use more or less energy. You should also consider gas. Eighty percent of dryers in the US are electric. If you have the option, consider using a gas dryer (aff) to save money and reduce your environmental impact!
Now, Best Buy has a great set of ENERGY STAR washers and dryers to pick from. The LG Twin Wash & Sidekickis the perfect choice! Best of all, it lets you do two loads at once, so you have more time to do the things you’d rather be doing in life. It’s LG’s ingenious way of helping today’s consumer divide and conquer their daily workload. The innovative LG TWIN Wash is all about efficiency, helping you get more clothes cleaner in less time. With a combined capacity of up to 6.6 cu. ft., the TWIN Wash boasts an ergonomically elevated and angled door that makes loading and unloading easier. Plus, the LED control panel is located on the door, right at your fingertips. The TurboWash 2 (aff).0 feature saves up to 30 minutes on larger loads with outstanding cleaning performance. The TurboSteam technology deeply penetrates fabrics for greater cleaning power. The full-width lid helps prevent spills thanks to an easy-to-fill detergent tray with recessed design. The Sidekick can pair with almost any LG front load unit. You can wash smaller loads without having to waste water by using the main unit. You can add the ingenious LG SideKick pedestal washer to almost any LG front load washer to tackle two loads of laundry — both large and small — at the same time. With the discretely styled with a concealed control panel, the LG SideKick not only functions as a secondary washer, but also raises your front-loading washer to a comfortable height and matches the pedestal beneath your LG dryer.
Best of all, Best Buy offers 18 months major appliance financing or 10% rewards (increased from 5 to10% for April!) and 10% back in grocery purchases! There is also free delivery on purchases $399+!
What features do you love most about this washer and dryer set?
Wow… now that is a laundry room!
I wish I had a space like that. Granted, I play “In the laundry room ” a lot already but I am convinced I wouldn’t leave if my laundry room looked like that.
We have been hard on our washer and are already starting to look at replacing them with a newer model.
Holy moly! I had to look at that picture twice before I realized it wasn’t a kitchen! I would love a laundry room with plenty of space to move and fold. Ah. Dreams…
I am so looking forward to be able to afford to get a new dishwasher. The energy Star ones are the next step for me. We just moved into a new house and replaced everything but the dishwasher.
I would love a beautiful new washer and dryer! Wonder if I’ll be surprised with some awesome new appliances.
I was looking at this set at Best Buy the other day. We have energy efficient appliances but we need a new washer. Its pretty old. And I would love a front loading one!
Oh man, I want all of those appliances. They look SO NICE! I mean I just got a new fridge and washer and dryer, but those ones look nicer. HAHA! Also, good for the earth is good for me!
I want a bigger laundry room in my next house. Ours is way too small.
I actually bought my washer from Best Buy a little over a year ago. It is so much more energy efficient than our old set. I bought the cheapo one too. I am able to wash a king sized comforter in it.
First look, I thought it was a kitchen. The washer and dryer look really nice.
We are moving and currently shopping for appliances. We would like to buy more energy efficient appliances so this article is perfect. We will be checking out the brands for sure. They sound great!
Now that we are looking into buying a new house, appliances are on our radar. We are most definitely looking for green products that will help conserve energy and save us money.
I have been saving up for a new washer and dryer so I can update my laundry room. it is a HOT mess. Like for real. This would totally help me save time and money
I love all the features and I want those two. Our washer and dryer are still working good though, but hubby had them for years already. I think it’s time to replace them.
I would love to get new appliances for my kitchen. These have great features. I will have to check them out.
Great post! Can I have all these appliances? Would love to have them in my kitchen. Thanks for sharing this wonderful post.
I’m totally in love with that fridge! I love that pull out middle drawer!
Such great products here! They have really revolutionized the eco friendly aspects of home appliances these days that make them so much better!
I was looking at this set at Best Buy the other day. We have energy efficient appliances, but we need a new washer. You’ve inspired me to get one!
What a beautiful collection! I love browsing through their kitchen department and seeing the different appliances.
My washer and dryer set is outdated, so I wouldn’t mind having one like the LG Twin Wash & Sidekick. I’ll have to put it on my wishlist! 🙂
I really love that you can do two loads at once. I would love to get my hands on that washer. Would save so much time.
The TurboSteam technology really stands out for me. I need an upgrade, my machine is slowly giving up. I’ve been searching for a good brand and deal.
can i have that laundry room.. like now… please?! LOL My friend and her husband just got this washer & dryer and they are absolutely in love. I saw it last night and I fell in love! Great post.
That front load option is so handy. They are truly beautiful and SUCH an upgrade from my old white washer and dryer. I need to check these out.
