Abstract
Disclosed is a washing apparatus having a spinnable tub for receiving a liquid together with materials to be washed and for discharging the liquid therein through its upper portion by a pumping action caused by centrifugal forces, a pulsator disposed in the spinnable tub on the bottom thereof at an eccentric position with respect to the axis of the rotation of the spinnable tub, and resistive means located in the spinnable tub at a region substantially diametrically opposite to the pulsator, whereby resistance to the liquid rotating in the spinnable tub caused by the pulsator and the resistive means is balanced with respect to the axis of rotation of the spinnable tub.
