Washing machines take a lot of hassle from washing your clothe. They are big time savers and save you from the boring chore of washing clothes for yourself or your family. However, washing machines are relatively new in the shopping lists of Nigerian households. So, if you are reading this, you are probably considering buying your first washing machine and this article will guide you.

Where to Buy Washing Machines

Compact Washer


Tired of washing? This article will help you move from time consuming hand washing to the convenient world of machine washing. Here is a guide for buying a washing machine for your home.

What Type of Washer

Washing machines come in two main types: the Front loaders (or washers) and the Top Loaders (or washers). There is also the Dryer for drying clothes and the all-in-one washers that combine washing and drying in the same unit.
Top Loaders



Top load washing machines are loaded from the top. They are usually cheaper and more compact than front loaders. If you are shopping with less than 40,000 Naira or 50,000 Naira, top load washing machines should probably be your target. Prices of top loaders in Nigeria can range from as low as N13,000 for the compact models to up to 100,000 Naira for the bigger more sophisticated models.

Top loaders also wash faster than front loaders and are easier to clean. Capacity of top washers ranges from 1.5kg to 11kg.

Front Loaders



Overall, front load washing machines offer better performance than top loaders. They are loaded from the front and are generally more economical requiring less water and detergent than top washing machines.

Front washers also operate more quietly and can handle heavy loads like large blankets. Prices of Front Washing Machines starts at around 45,000 Naira in Nigeria.

Dryers



Dryers don't wash they just dry. You load your clothes into the dryer for drying after washing. They use heating elements and air flow to dry clothes. They come as a separate unit or combined with the washer.

However, they require lots of power and can also cause shrinkage. Separate dryers are often more effective than built-in dryers in washers.

Buy Dryers Online
All-in-One Washers



All-in-one combo washer dryer combines the washer with the dryer. Their major advantage is that they save space by giving you two appliances in one.

Buy All-in-One Washers
What Load Capacity

The load capacity determines the quantity and size of clothes that can be loaded in the washer at a time. The loading capacity you choose depends on how often you wash and the size of your family as well as the type of clothe you wash. A small 2.5kg top loader will be okay for bachelors/spinsters or students or for washing baby/toddler clothes while a family of 4 can start with 4.5kg to 7kg washers.

Capacities of washing machines currently selling at retailers in Nigeria ranges from 1.5kg to up to 15kg. Washing machines with larger capacity usually come with more features, controls, and options.
Available Space

Before buying a washing machine, you need to consider available space in your home. Buy a compact washing machine if space is limited in your home.
Ease of Use

Washing machines vary in their ease of use. Washing machine can range from basic (a.k.a manual) to automatic. The degree of automation may also vary from one washing machine to another. A manual washing machine will only wash in one compartment and you have to manually remove it from the wash compartment to another compartment for spinning/wringing (squeezing out of water).

An automatic washing machine will handle most operations on its own. All you need is to load the clothe, apply the detergent and/or other agents, and set the controls and the machine will do the rest. The washing machine will automatically fill itself with water to the required level and will also drain the water at the right time and squeezing it of water.

With such automatic washing machines all you need to do is take your clothes from the machine and spread on the line for a couple of minutes.
What is your Budget

At the end of the day, you can't spend more than you have. You will buy a washing machine within your budget. If you have less than 40,000 Naira, you should limit yourself to entry level washers with limited features and options.
Power Requirement

Washing machines vary in their power requirement from as low as 80 watts for the compact models to up to 5,000 watts. Washers with low power can be connected directly to available power points in your home, while the ones with higher power requirement will need dedicated power points which you will need an electrician to install for you.

Due to power deficiencies in Nigeria, it is a good idea to buy a washing machine that can be powered by your generator to ensure that your aim for buying a washer is not defeated. Top loaders of below 40,000 Naira are usually more generator friendly. Washer-Dryer combo usually demand more power.
More Features

Here are more features to consider:
Turbo Washing: Reduces the washing time for large amount of (or heavy) laundry
Quick Wash: Reduces washing time for small amount or (or light) laundry
Antibacterial Wash: Removes 99.9% bacteria from your cloth. Samsung calls it SilverWash
Steam Wash: Gentle wash that uses steam to penetrate your fabrics, removing dirt, odour (allergens), and wrinkles in the process
Low Noise Level: some washers operates more quite than others
Number of Cycles (wash programs): A Wash Cycle is a washing process from start to finish. Washing Machines come with wash cycles for different types of washing conditions with highend models having wash cycles targeted to specific clothes. Wash Cycles can range from 2 in basic washers to more than 11 cycles in highend models.
Temperature Settings: Some washing machines offer option to select either hot or cold wash. However, others offer up to 5 temperature settings that enable you choose different temperature for washing and rinsing.
Timers: Timers come in different forms. The basic timer enables you set how-long to wash the clothe. This is usually available in less automated machines. Automatic washing machines will wash for as long as is required. A Timer can also enable you delay when the washing will start.
Energy Star Rating: Energy Star ratings tells you how energy efficient the washing machine is.
Child-proof: Prevents tampering by kids
Brands: LG, Samsung, Scanfrost, Daewoo, Ignis, Indesit, Haier Thermocool, etc

Health, Skin and Hair benefits of Watermelon Seeds

Watermelon is an extremely popular fruit. While we all enjoy eating this sweet refreshing fruit, we usually discard the tiny seeds scattered in it without realizing or rather knowing of their health benefits.

WHEN you think of the health benefits of watermelon, the seeds probably do not come to your mind. You probably think of the sweet, juicy pulp without considering the seed as being good too. The fact is, watermelon seeds whether wet, dry or roasted make a great snack. The United States Department of Agriculture has listed different nutritional components of the seeds.
seeds

The seeds are very rich in protein. A cup of dried watermelon seeds contains more than 30 per cent proteins, which is the 61 per cent of the daily-recommended dose. The proteins in the seeds consist of amino acids, tryptophan, glutamic acid, lysine and arginine. Medline Plus states that some health conditions may benefit from additional arginine.

Some of the health benefits of arginine include; regulating blood pressure and treating coronary heart disease. Mineral found in the seeds is magnesium.

According to the U.S. National Institute of Health, magnesium helps to regulate blood pressure and the metabolism of carbohydrates, which has a beneficial effect on blood sugar level. Other important minerals in watermelon seeds are phosphorous, iron, potassium, sodium, copper, manganese and zinc.

The most surprising thing about watermelon seeds is the amount of fat they contain. A cup of the dried seeds contain 51 per cent fat. Other categories of deposits in the seeds are monounsaturated, polyunsaturated and omega-6 fatty acids.

The American Heart Association reports that mono and polyunsaturated fats reduce blood cholesterol, while omega-6 fatty acids can help reduce high blood pressure.
Health Benefits of Watermelon Seeds:

As stated earlier, watermelon seeds are a rich source of nutrients and minerals and therefore, should not be discarded. These seeds have a hard outer covering so they should be chewed before swallowing to get their nutritional content. Some of the health benefits of watermelon seeds are given below.

HOW TO PREVENT OTHERS FROM USING THE REMOTE CONTROL

HOW TO DEACTIVATE YOUR DSTV REMOTE CONTROL

Imagine a situation where you have an interesting show to watch 
on Soundcity and every member of your house wants to watch 
the usual Africa Magic. 
Perhaps, you don't want people changing the dstv channel here 
and there with the remote control. Here's a little trick i use and it 
really works for me because it will make them drop 
the remote control with disappointment after pressing several times and the channel fails to 
                            change.
NB: This trick will make your decoder unable to receive commands from the remote 
control until you return it to it's default mode.


HOW TO DO IT 
Look for the 'SHIFT' key on your dstv remote control, Press it once (it blinks) followed 
by the 'EXIT' button. This will quickly deactivate that remote control making it unable 
to change channel, increase the volume or any other function.

TO ACTIVATE THE REMOTE AGAIN
Re-Activating the remote is almost the same but with only a slight difference; in this 
step Press the SHIFT' button again, followed by the button with this 'I' symbol 
(information symbol) That's it
Apart from using this trick to control access to your decoder, you can also use this 
trick to control the viewing of channels with adult contents (i.e For Parental control). 
Just choose a channel that's suitable for family viewing  and apply the trick.... 
The children will be unable to change from that channel till you Re-activate the remote control.

      Hope this was helpful, Do feel free to drop your comments on what you think about this 
      in the comment box at the end of  this post 
        Hope this helps.

New Trend In UK & USA Sees Women Pay £147 To Strangers To Rub Their Clitor!s 

A new s3x trend gaining grounds in the U.S and Britain now sees women who have non-fulfilling s3x lives pay a whooping £147 per session for a stranger to rub their clitor!s as they undergo ‘orgasmic’ classes. The practice involves group masturbation classes which promise “larger state of consciousness, improving intimacy in relationships and generally increasing your orgasm skills”. A typical orgasmic meditation session involves a woman undressing from the waist down while a practitioner strokes her clitor!s for 15 minutes.
Before the male practitioner strokes her on the clit, he first of all tells her about the uses and benefits of the honeypot and the functions of the different sections of the clitoris. Such hilarity!
Orgasmic meditation has been growing in popularity since it was founded in 2001 by Nicole Daedone and her San Francisco-based organisation OneTaste .
There are more than 10,000 practitioners and 2,000 already in the UK alone. Nicole Daedone said “The female orgasm is vital for every single woman on the planet.”
