STABER WASHING MACHINES

Made in Groveport, Ohio, the Staber 2000 Series is our most popular model and is a commercial-quality washer for the laundromats, commerical businesses and home use. The basic color is all white (stainless steel and designer colors are also availble) and it includes stainless steel six sided inner tub and an eight sided outer tub for better durability and is gentler on your clothing . It can save the average family of 3 that does 8 loads per week around $300 each year by using less water, energy, and detergent compared to traditional top load agitator washers.
Starting at $1,195*

Staber vs. Traditional Agitator Washers:

• Although the Initial cost is higher (approximately $300) the average break even point is about 3 years

• Uses 66% less water (great for wells & septic systems) and 75% less detergent

• Uses 50% less energy because of heating less hot water; can save you over $340 annually if you currently do just 8 loads per week

• Even though it still may be working, just think about the costs of using your current washer—it all adds up! The Staber starts saving you money after only three years.

• Named as a ‘Best Buy’ in the 2001 Consumers Digest Annual Buying Guide Issue

• Can pay for itself within two to three years at 8 loads (average family of three) per week

• No agitator or transmission; tumbling action is more gentle on clothes with less wear and tear and no visible lint (lint is the break down of the fabric in you clothing).  This means that your clothing last longer and thereby saving you even more money.

• Faster spin speeds for less drying time

• Patented tub design forces water through clothes to clean more effectively

• Can hold up to 50% more laundry (18 pounds) than traditional agitator washers and it can handle a queen size comforter

• Fewer moving parts means less maintenance and it can be serviced on location by its owner.  This will save you both time and money.

• Longer life expectancy; expected to last 20-25 years or more with average residential use as compared to only 12 years with a standard top load agitator washer.  This means that the over the lifetime of the Staber you will have bought two conventional washing machines.  So your total cost for those washing machines alone is greater than your initial cost for the Staber

• Staber is a very durable, commercial-quality washer for the home, as opposed to a standard domestic residential washer

• Almost 30 years of experience in the laundry industry provides Staber with the knowledge to produce the best-built and most efficient washer available

Benefits for Consumers Using Solar Power

Staber gives alternative energy users the most efficient washer available for handling their laundry needs. The Staber washer runs very efficiently, operating on only 110–150 watt-hours of electricity per wash load. It uses about 5-6 amps during the wash cycle, and surges to about 11 amps when the motor starts. We recommend a minimum of a 1,500 watt inverter to be used with our Staber washer, with an output of exactly between 110-120VAC and 60Hz. to operate correctly.

Unlike other washing machine manufacturers, the warranty is not voided when used on a solar power source. This, while using an average of only 15 gallons of water per load make the Staber the most energy efficient washer available and the best choice for consumers living "off-grid."

Solar-Related Advantages of the Staber over Traditional Agitator Washers:

• Operates on alternative power sources without voiding warranty
• Lower operating energy; only uses 110-150 watt-hours of electricity per wash cycle
• Less water usage—the Staber washer saves around 25-40 total gallons of water per load (10 gallons of hot)
• Less detergent used because of less water; save 75% of your detergent costs
• No transmission means less power used, no big surge when motor starts, and longer life expectancy
• Washer can pay for itself due to its 75% savings in your detergent costs and maintenance savings
• Total front access enables consumer to easily maintain and service washer
• Extracts more water for less drying time to save more energy

How Does Staber Compare With the Traditional Top Load Agitator Washer You May Be Currently Using? 

• Do you want to use around 45 gallons of water per load or around 15 gallons of water?
• Do you want tubs made of durable stainless steel or tubs made of plastic or porcelain?
• Do you want to heat an average of 3 gallons of hot water or 12 gallons of hot water per load?
• At an average of eight loads per week, do you want to spend around $490 each year to use your washer or just $180 with a Staber?
• Do you want to use 1 ounce of detergent per load with a Staber, or 4-8 ounces per load?
• Would you like to wash up to 16 standard bath towels in one load, or just 8-10 towels with a traditional agitator washer?
• Would you like to reduce your drying time by about 30% (and save more energy) by using a Staber that features a much faster spin cycle?
• Would you like to have total front access to parts and no transmission to reduce your maintenance expenses?
• Do you want a standard residential domestic washer that will last an average of just 10 years or a commercial-grade washer for the home that can last 20+ years?
• Do you want your tubs to be circular, or do you want them to be shaped so that they create a passive pumping action in the water to clean more effectively?
• Would you prefer a heavy-duty four strut suspension to prevent the washer from ‘walking’ in the spin cycle?
• Would you like to have two re-greasable bearings per shaft, supported on the front and the back of the tubs for greater durability?
• Do you want your clothes to last around 30% longer because of using a gentle tumbling action as opposed to using a harmful agitator that can shred your laundry?
• Would you like to use around 135 watt-hours of electricity per load to use a Staber, or around 600 watt-hours to use a traditional agitator washer?
• Do you want your warranty to be voided if using solar power or not?

Even though it still may be working, just think about the costs of using your current washer—it all adds up!

You can now see why a Staber washer makes so much more sense compared to a traditional agitator washer.

Here is what you need to consider: 

•      Currently you may be spending over $490 annually to operate your washer if you are doing around 8 loads per week.  This includes detergent, electric, and water charges and costs.

•      Therefore, if you invest in a Staber washer now, it will provide you a return of around $300 each year for the rest of its life (approximately 25 years or longer). This does not include the savings in reducing your drying time, and the time saved in possibly doing fewer loads.

•      This gives you close to a 30% return on your investment every year you own it. 

In conclusion, it is a fact you pay utility bills, detergent costs, some of you pay water and sewer charges as well to use a washer. Thus, if you reduce how much money you are spending right now with your current washer you can pay back the entire cost of our Staber washer really quickly.
