<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To be able to specify a degree of deviation of laundry in a washing/dewatering tub. <P>SOLUTION: A washing machine including: an outer tub which stores washing water to be used in a washing process and rinsing water to be used in a rinsing process; and a washing/dewatering tub rotatably equipped in the outer tub; and a semiconductor pressure sensor which measures a water level in the outer tub, comprises: a control unit which carries out a residual water rotation operation for rotating the washing/dewatering tub in a state of leaving water in the washing/dewatering tub, and during the residual water rotation operation, calculates a difference between a maximum water level and a minimum water level measured by the semiconductor pressure sensor for each rotation of the washing/dewatering tub as a calculated value indicating a degree of deviation of laundry in the washing/dewatering tub. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
