It Untwerp

Oer Hydrowash Waskmasine

Hydrowash is in draachbere semy-automatyske waskmasine mei twa tobben. De iene tobbe wasket en de oare sintrifugearret, en de klean wurde mei de hân fan de iene tobbe nei de oare oerbrocht. Knoppen ûnder it haaddeksel regelje de wasktiid, de waskintensiteit, it wetternivo en de droochtiid, wat de bûtenkant skjin hâldt en de binnenkant maklik te begripen makket. De ynderlike waskromte hâldt spatten en gemuozze binnen. Mei in lûkhânfet en dúdlike tsjillen kin de masine troch ien persoan ferpleatst wurde. It hûs is makke fan spuitgetten plestik en hat in rêstich boatachtich profyl dat goed past by kompakte wenten.
