How Does a Staber Washer Work?

The following pictures will be very helpful if you cannot see a Staber washer in person. It shows exactly how it operates, along with how easy it is to load and unload. Up to 16 standard bath towels (measuring 26" x 42") can be loaded because there is no agitator in the way and you can utilize the entire tub volume. Note: Towel fabric thickness varies; the thicker the towel, the less you will be able to load.

1. Looking down into inner tub when open.       

2. Load inner tub with laundry.

3. Put 1 ounce of detergent, bleach, or softener in automatic dispenser.        

4. Close two-door tub with both hands.    

5. This is how the inner tub appears when latched

Basic Operational Procedure

When it washes, the tub rotates in one direction at about 42 RPM for 15 seconds, pauses for 3 seconds, rotates the other direction (to keep your laundry from tangling), and so on. You have immediate access to the inner tub while it is washing if you forgot a pair of socks, for example. The tub is locked while in the spin cycle. At the end of the spin cycle, the tub rotates in both directions (like in the wash cycle) to 'fluff' the laundry. Finally, the tub rotates to the top. You have one wash and two rinses; you also have the option to use a 'pre-wash' which is just a 5-minute wash before the regular wash cycle and can be used to loosen the soil in extra dirty loads.
