Why is washing machine makes the man's life easier?

At one time, a woman spent an hour with a washboard washing and rinsing clothes. Today she uses less than a minute to put those close in her washing machine, pour in detergent, set the knobs, and turn on the machine. It takes less than a minute to move the clothes from the washing machine to they dryer. Thus, the washing machine has reduced an hours work to two minutes. That has made her life easier.


What is the washing machine used for?

When I was young in Liverpool, England, in many British households, Monday was wash day. The dirty family clothes would be put into a dolly tub of hot water, soap added, and a wooden paddle (a posser) used to stir and agitate the clothes for a very long time. After several rinses, the wet washing would be pegged out on the line (in the backgarden, the backyard, or even in the back-entry in some city areas of closely built terraced housing). A constant look out for rain had to be kept - especially in rainy Britain.All that changed with the invention of the washing machine. With a modern electrical washing machine, the family clothes can be washed and spun almost dry in one go, taking less than a couple of hours. On a rainy day, the damp clothes can be dried in a tumble drier. So what took all day (wash day Monday) now takes a couple of hours or more.

Why do you have to wait for hot water after someone just took a shower?

When someone takes a shower, the hot water tank replaces the water used with cold water. It takes the hot water heater some time (which varies with each heater) to heat the newly filled tank. The hot water is always replaced by cold as you use it, but you don't notice it as much when you use smaller amounts or, like dishwashers and washing machines, use the hot water in intermittent amounts.
