Best Buy is saving the planet and your bank balance one washer and dryer at a time with the latest in energy and water efficient appliances. Save the planet and yourself some green by upgrading your washer and dryer today. With an Energy STAR Certified washer and dryer like the LG Twin Washer and SideKick, you can celebrate Earth Day 2016 like a boss.
If you aren’t using Energy STAR certified appliances it’s costing you.
Energy STAR certified Washers use less energy and can save you an average of $40 per year on your utility bills compared to standard models. The more energy your appliances use the higher your utility bills. I don’t know about you but I appreciate all the savings I can get. As my utility bill increases so does the feeling I am throwing money away. It pays to be energy efficient. If you own a vintage washer (built before 2003) the outdated technology alone is costing you, on average, $180 a year! What could you do with savings like that? I know what I could do…
Compared to standard models, full sized ENERGY STAR certified washers can save more than 3,000 gallons of water per year. Water is precious. Where will we fish if we run out of water? According to the latest research, at our current water consumption rate more than two-thirds of the world’s population may face water shortages by 2025. Just imagine all the water we could save if we all upgraded to the latest in laundering technology!
Energy STAR certified Dryers use 20 percent less energy than conventional models. With features like sensor drying and low heat settings you can further your savings. I prefer sensor drying to timed drying as it shuts your machine off automatically when the clothes are dry. This not only saves you money by reducing the time your dryer is operating it also prolongs the life of your clothing. Features such as low heat settings combined with sensor drying ensure maximum efficiency. Did you know low heat settings use less energy?
Have you considered gas? While eighty percent of dryers in the US are electric, if you have the option, consider using a gas dryer to save money and reduce your environmental impact.
My favorite features of the LG Twin Washer and SideKick are their large capacity and the TurboWash setting. With the LG Twin Washer and SideKick I can do two loads at one time. With TurboWash I can save up to 30 minutes on larger loads. Washing and drying more clothes in less time means I get to do more of what I’d rather be doing than laundry, like fishing. With all the money I save I can buy more tackle and by conserving water I can enjoy my favorite fishing holes for years to come. By devising ingenious ways of helping guys like me divide and conquer their laundry, LG is making the world a better place one innovation at a time.

Washing two loads at once would be amazing. My husband works out of town a lot and he comes home and brings 4 loads of laundry with him. It takes an entire weekend to catch up.
We always have laundry and when doing towels it’s pretty convenient to throw them all in one load and not have to worry about it.
The only appliance I really need right now is a new fridge. Mine is on its last legs and I need a new one bad.
We just got a new one last year, but I feel your pain. It sucks when the fridge is on the fritz.
We are in the market for a new home and that means new appliances. I can’t wait to get some upgraded features.
That sounds like a great washer combo. I love the idea of being able to do two loads like that.
Our washer and dryer is so old that they don’t even start in the same place anymore.
It would be nice to own something efficient and get some savings too.
These are probably out of our budget though.
And I’ve never thought of gas. I wonder what the savings would be there!!!
Thanks for sharing.
It would be so nice to get two loads done at once! If I ever get enough money to buy a new machine that would be the machine to get.
Energy Star appliances are best. We have some LG appliances and they are really great, they last forever.
I’d love to have an Energy Star certified refrigerator. I think our current one is probably a power hog. I don’t know for sure though!
I knew Best Buy always has great products. It feels good to use eco-friendly appliances. I need to have this.
I got the LG ones. We just moved into a new house that we bought. You are right about Energy Star appliances, thats what we did with the kitchen and laundry appliances that we got.
Beautiful stainless steel appliances. I love that they are energy efficient.
Wow good to know! I definitely will look into purchasing eco friendly appliances out next time around.
We made sure all of our appliances were Energy Star ones when we bought out house and bought new appliances. I’ll have to remember to check these out if we need new ones soon!
I am still using a really old and really small washer and dryer. These appliances would make a wonderful replacement for my current machines.
We are in the market for a new set of washer and dryer. Would love to get a new set from there.
Our washer is so old and that sounds like a great washer combo. I need to have this one!
That’s amazing! We do so much laundry in my household of 10 so this would be a dream!
Washing two loads at the same time sounds incredible! Saving not only time but also money!
