When you’ve got a big pile of laundry to get through, it can be annoying having to wait for one wash to finish before starting another one. But with Haier’s innovative new Duo washing machine you can do two loads at once. The top and bottom drums operate independently, meaning you can simultaneously do whites in one and darks in the other, set at different cycles and cutting the time down by half. With a total drum capacity of 12kg and easy-to-use digital controls, washdays will be a breeze with this clever, A-rated appliance

Haier’s Duo washing machine is yet another fabulous appliance unveiled at this year’s IFA technology fair in Berlin, and it’s scheduled to be in stores end of 2016.
