The Polish competition authority has recently conducted an inspection of ten washing machine models to verify whether sellers are accurately displaying product cards and energy labels. The investigation revealed that only one seller had discrepancies, which have since been rectified.

In a laboratory setting, the authority assessed water consumption, energy usage, and noise levels during the spin cycle of the washing machines. Fortunately, the manufacturers' declarations were found to be in line with actual performance.

It is essential for energy labels to be visible and legible in both physical stores and online shopping platforms. This allows consumers to compare different models and select the one that best meets their needs.
