Drum volumes are very different between front-loaders and top-loaders that will wash the same loads. In any case, since I have laundry equipment at home, what I'm usually searching for is "laundromat with a large-capacity front-loading machine" - since that's what I'll need for a sleeping bag or a down-filled duvet. The idea that the "large capacity" machine may be rated for a nominal "12 kg" is ridiculous, since my summer sleeping bags weighs less than a kg dry, and the winter one about 1.5 kg, but the volumes of a top-loading "standard capacity" (6 kg?) machine and a front-loading "large capacity" machine don't compare directly either. I'm not sure, given our data model, how I'd state such a query. (Today, I ask Google. :P) By the way, it must be a front-loader. Never, ever wash a lightweight down sleeping bag in a top-loader - that's just begging to tear the baffles.
