Perhaps commercial machines are different, but US home washers are
generally _not_ 240v.


AISB, mine was 240V. OTOH, it was a combo so a single machine with
separate washer and dryer.

Yes, the combos can be 240v, but free-standing washers are generally 120v.

The dryer was a bit unimaginative. Sometimes I spent 20 mins untying
the sheet it had knotted up with the pillow cases and duvet cover
inside.

I assume it didn't periodically reverse direction?
