Equipment guide
Commercial laundry equipment
The machines are the business. When you evaluate a laundromat, the brand, size, and age of the washers and dryers drive the replacement cost, the utility bill, and how long before you have to re-tool. Here is a buyer's guide to the brands you will actually see on the floor, with links to each manufacturer's own spec sheets and manuals.
