[–] MonkderDritte@feddit.de 8 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (3 children) Washing mashines have a window though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 10 points 2 years ago (4 children) If you open a front-load washer in the middle of its wash cycle, it would dump 5–10 gallons (editors note: however much that is) of dirty, soapy water all over the floor. That's bad - so the manufacturer designs a window so that you can see that the machine is empty of water before opening the door. I guess it's for that reason. Dishwashers could have similar problems but they might have a lot less water in them at one time and with the type of doors they have you might not dump as much on the floor or something. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] el_abuelo@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 years ago (2 children) Dishwashers don't fill up - they just have a well at the bottom (below the height of the door) and they spray water over the dishes to rinse of the dirt. Washing machines need to fill up and soak the clothes so that they get everywhere, not just the outer layer. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] Kusimulkku@lemm.ee 3 points 2 years ago I was thinking that was the case.
