There are professionals testing for certificate out there!
You know how many independent labs are there? And those efficial which are giving the washer A rated wash/water/energy?
There is optimum for an A rated wash, and machine HAS to physicly hold written on KG so it can go on the market like that. The only bad thing is that is 9kg of (like hand towel) cotton peaces, thin like bed sheet - so 9kg of bigger towels... not possible even some of them say 9kg-"13 large bath towels".
My slimmy G.Plus has a 50l drum (which is a sucsess for a 40cm machine since every other except indesit have SHAME of small drums.. will make a thread about that when I get the pics of them all).. anyway I managed to put inthere 7.5kg, and for fun I started the cycle, it washed, but when the interm.spin started, that was a problem.. impossible to get to a spin due to balance problems (in that load were mostly towels, and bed sheets), so I think that 7kg of small cotton sheets would deffinatley doo.
Anyway, it"s all sh*t.. those numbers saying how many KG can go is just to say to ordinary guy "Hey! This one has bigger drum than other", no one is going to measure on the scale literally KG"s (except us here xD), just going to put as much as customer think appropriate.
Only one thing is sure, people buy high capacity ones to have less loads per week, and both Candy and Indesit made people do the laundry less, because they really have bigger and wider drums.
