does LG have those stackable separate washer and dryer ?
something like this  https://shopee.com.my/-COMBO-Toshiba-7.5kg-...4302.5236468400

They do have stackable washer and dryer

FV1409S4W - washer
VD-H9066WS - dryer

I believe these 2 are stackable. But both are 9kg only

Hi, can i get some opinions from folks here.

My budget is 4k. I want to buy dryer and washer for my small apartment (space is actually an issue, but i think we can squeeze in 2 separate machines).

I’m just looking at small capacity based on my budget and not heavy usage. Im also keen for heat pump for dryer.

May i know is samsung or beko reliable? Eyeing for 8kg only. I have pretty bad experience with samsung’s tv. No experience it’s washer or dryer. People often do recommend LG. But it is above my budget unless i’m going for LG washer-dryer combo.

heat pump dryer is not cheap. The dryer alone would cost you almost 3k - 4k already. No matter which brand

Fair enough, since its a lesser known brand. As long it works well in the long term then its a steal

But for those who plan to stack their washer and dryer, better to buy both from the same brand that are stackable. I know LG is one of them

Hi. Stacking washer dryer is okay or not actually? Chat dengan support dia suruh beli combo.

no issues if both the models are meant to be stackable

note that not all models are stackable

Hello!

Wanted to get some opinion on thr LG F2515RTGB. I tried googling for reviews but nothing came up.

This will primarily be used to wash, and the drying function most likely only during the rainy seasons.

Any thoughts? This model is currently on sale at Harvey Norman for about 3.9k
*
I'm using step down model FV1410H3P. I bought combo also thinking the dryer function can be good backup for rainy season

Well I only used the dryer function only once.... the drying result was just not that good, also took too long and used more energy. In the end I hang my clothes indoor with those drying rack and just dry with fan during rainy season

I am using LG washer dryer. If you wash then dry in one cycle, it will take very long.

What I do is I hang my laundry after wash, the next day pick the ones still damp and do a dry cycle at low heat.
*
I did seperate my wash and dry cycle previously (towels). I actually expected it to take long, but was honestly dissapointed at the drying result since my towels still came out damp

Another thing also my towels all have this weird rubber smell after the drying cycle, so bad that i have to rewash some of them. And they left a lot of lint in the drum and along the rubber seals which is quite a pain to get rid of. Not sure is it because of first time use? And I rmb after the wash cycle was done, I wiped the door inside and also the rubber seals dry before I start the dry cycle. Is this necessary?

Anyway I was so dissapointed with the drying that I never bothered to use it after that.... hanging my clothes under the fan takes probably just as long or maybe slower but it consumes less energy and also less harmful to your fabric in long run

Combo require to do tube cleaning and maintainace. Because the hot air is recycle, the dirt/lint will cause the smell.

After sometime, the lint will cover up the sensor, fan and the ducting inside, This will reduce the efficiency of the drying. The sensor cannot sense the damp of the cloth. The wet lint give out smell. The fan reduce airflow.

This is my maitainance open up the WM.

But that was my first time using the dryer. It was new.

And i also already done a few wash cycles before trying the dry function

ah nice
looks useful

Personally I would avoid it. An extra thing to go wrong in the long term. Also you must only use liquid detergent and no powder, and I've read that not all liquid detergent work well with the dispenser

What's wrong with powder? Been using powder since day 1 over 14yrs.

Cause it is the only low sud detergent in the market back then. Low sud didn't have liquid form back then.

Im referring to the auto dispenser

guys, the new mijia front load is it worth ? after discount rm 1199.

Get model from common brands better.... easier to find spare parts, especially for front load, your absorber will need replacing in few years time depending how you use it

You can find Mijia parts plenty from aliexpress but that is 2 years later question... as long it lasted 5+ years already money back assuming LG 2-in-1 cost 3K you can buy 3 of Mijia Washer Dryer... if it last 2 years...throw and buy new and it hope another 2 years
*
That is assuming you willing and can do DIY fixing. Sometimes even when you got the parts, but can't find a foreman to fix it because nobody is familiar with the model

Also I dont really agree with the whole "throwaway and buy new" argument when it comes to large appliances. Since when had large appliances become disposable item? This is not handphone or laptop....
