How much washing do you do?

This can affect the choice of what capacity washing machine to go for. A small capacity washing machine (5-6kg drum) may use less water, but if you have a large family, you may have to do more washes, in which case a larger (7-8kg drum) may be more practical. Larger capacity does not necessarily mean less efficient, especially if it has intelligent sensors which automatically adjust the water used according to load size.

How noisy is it, where you keeping it?

Depending on where you are planning on putting the washing machine, this could make all the difference. In a utility room, out the way, then it is less of an issue, but if you plan on integrating it into a kitchen, then noise can be a factor.

Will it last?

It goes without saying, that the sturdier the parts of a washing machine, the longer it will last. Things to look out for are washing machines with moulded stainless steel metal drums and ribs,anything made of plastic can deteriorate far quicker. And stainless steel is best to combat the risk of limescale build up.
