BEST OVERALL WASHING MACHINE

This double-duty machine offers flexibility thanks to two separately controlled washers in the same unit.

BEST VALUE WASHING MACHINE

High-Efficiency Top Load Washing Machine

GE

$699. 99

In our tests, GE's washing skills rival more expensive machines. This classic top-loader is super-straightforward to use. We're impressed that at this price it offers options like an up to two-hour automatic presoak, deep fill and rinse for more customized water levels, has very good capacity, and is Energy Star Qualified.

Capacity: 4. 2 cubic feet

BEST TOP LOAD WASHING MACHINE

High-Efficiency Top Load Washing Machine

MAYTAG

Capacity: 5. 3 cubic feet

BEST COMPACT WASHING MACHINE

TwinDos Washing Machine

BOSCH

本文是一篇应用文，介绍了2019年值得推荐的四款洗衣机的品牌、优点、价格、容量等指标。

【1】细节理解题。从第一款SAMSUNG洗衣机介绍中的最后一句“You even have the ability to add up to five rinses onto a cycle to remove every bit of detergent from larger items like a jacket（您甚至可以在一个洗衣循环中最多5次漂洗，可以去除大件物品上的洗涤剂）”可知，这款洗衣机的漂洗功能是很强大的。想要衣物被漂洗彻底，应该选SAMSUNG洗衣机。故选A项。

【2】细节理解题。从文章第二款GE洗衣机的介绍中提到的功能有 “… an up to two-hour automatic presoak，deep fill and rinse for more customized water levels, …very good capacity(多达两小时的自动预浸…深度填充和定水位漂洗…有很好的容量)”，只有“steam setting”这个功能是GE没有的。故选D项。

【3】细节理解题。比较四款品牌洗衣机的价格：SAMSUNG价格$1,548. 90，GE价格$699. 99，MAYTAG价格$650. 00，BOSCH价格$1,999.00，其中 MAYTAG这款洗衣机是价格最低的。如果预算紧，可以选择MAYTAG品牌。故选C项。

【4】细节理解题。从第三款洗衣机MAYTAG的介绍“This washer has a traditional center agitator，but is still so huge inside(这个洗衣机有一个传统中心搅拌器，但洗衣机内部空间仍很大)可知，MAYTAG洗衣机的缺点是搅拌器不是很先进，洗衣机容量还是很大的。

故选B项。
