Midea 7.5kg full auto
is midea home appliances good? not a huge family, only 4 of us hence doesn't want anything larger than 8kg
this seems a pretty good deal...only heard some good review about their ac but not sure on washing machine
any recommendation is welcome

Pana > all

if no budget then just buy lo, if got budget then buy other brand better

ahhh panasonic...gooding?

which brand would u recommend?

midea ok... don;t expect this machine to last many years...

More lasting than my Samsung Washing machine which the board gave up 2nd year.

Btw mine is 8kg quite standard, nothing to shout about and still working. No fancy music, song or visibility of remaining minutes before done.
4th year still going strong.

I still consider as known brand from Hong Kong if not mistaken.

Had one at parent house floated in big flood few years ago. After that my brother just opened it spray water to clean all the mud inside including inside motor. After that just ran fine. The control board was potted in clear potting material. So, no water damage.

Yang ni x ok ke? The ctrl panel is at above, so takde kena air.

why u say so? does this mean it does not last long?

used to have samsung too but the motor spinning gave up in the 4th year
so u r using midea too?

wow this is impressive...altho i may not experience flood but it seems durable even in ur situation

depends on your preferences and where you put your washing machine, whether you want front load or top load. Brand like panasonic, electrolux, LG are good and can last for many years. I am using this

Yeah, like I said still going strong and counting, 4th year now.

Your Samsung Motor 4th years still under warranty right? normally motor warranty 5 years, my board warranty 1 year only and gave up after 2 years

Dev give free media washing machine , dryer , Aircon. Washing machine still in working condition ( 6 yr in service dy ) , dryer sold dy( sold it from day 1 ) , Aircon not sejuk( from day 1 ) .

I have a rule.

Don't buy Chinese Trojan horse junk and goods.

You will regret it. Spend some extra money on a proper non-chinese made brand.

using one now, not bad for budget fully auto washing machine

LG > Midea > Panasonic.

During flood water was chest height. The washing machine is not floating standing but laying on its side. Even the control panel was full of mud. I cleaned it with water.

It was mold with epoxy (called potting) for water proofing. I' in electronics industry. Well versed on this.

haha, same experience with you. my bro bought samsung 8kg, when washing sounds like warring at the back. seldom use also sound so terrible.

my mum using midea, use it daily already 4 years + no issue at all. somemore much cheaper than samsung.

7kg that time just rm 450

My oana 8kg 8 years and going stronk

Samsung really so Korean, look good on the outside, inside all plastic

This.

My 9kg pana 9 years now still holding on. With 3 kids the usage is like 3-4 times a week. Don't forget to use the tube hygiene mode and clean the lint from time to time.

My 10kg Samsung top loader still working good until now. Already 15 years.

thanks for sharing and prefer top load...front load can be really expensive isn't?

yeah did service it and it act up again after warranty finish
thn sell it to my neighbor and he doesn't mind to repair it himself

indeed budget wise it is fitting my wallet haha
seems like midea is not too bad, altho some would say opt for other

guess it is also based on luck for samsung products
i won't mind to buy samsung again in future cz now feeling to try brand never use before

We had Electrolux for 10years, worked well, then one of the board needed change, we could have spent on it, but decided to go alittle bigger hence went with Hitachi, since their warranty was longer. Been working well for the past 8yrs now.

I dont think there is such a thing as best brand, but some brand do produce good model, but that doesnt mean all their range of models are equally good!

To me, basically I list down my preferences, such as washing timing adjustments, hot/cold, number of rinse, load, warranty, etc. Then I source for a product that closely meets it. Again depending on budget jugak la!

agree that no best brand and everyone has different experience of using it
im also trying to meet my requirement and see what other been using

At my previous rented place, I split with my landlady on buying a Midea 7.5kg Top Loader back in late 2014. Can't remember the price but bought from Lazada around RM600.

Don't have pic of it but looks like the model already discontinued. Only sad part is no detergent tray or place so need to taruk inside the tub with the clothes before I start washing.

We use it like 4-5 times per week but still working fine until I left the place last December.

Also even on delicate mode... it spin way too fast so it already tarik so many baju until got hole.

Have used Midea washing machine before.

It'll get the job done, but don't expect it to be ummm, how wud I describe this "high-quality endurance?"

Used it about 3 times a week, less than few months already got rattling sound. So, I'm trying to say is, the washing machine doesn't stay like 'newly bought performance' very long.

But it is still alive after 3 years of using it before I sold it.

But the one thing I like about this washing machine is that it is very powerful. You can overload it and the whole thing can still spin like a torrent (talking about its wash cycle, not 'spin' cycle).

TLDR: It'll get the job done. But if you wash every day, I dunno man....for student can lar. Also if you live in a flat, also need to consider. Afraid you also like me, less than few months already got rattling sound, kenot wash at night time lol.

thanks for sharing ur experience...that's quite a good deal but since discontinue thn a bit regret that can't buy it

not much space to allocate it so can't go more than 8kg
anything below 8kg is enuf for my fam so far

thanks for ur summary...really can't stand with rattling tbh...will take note about it

i have the 10kg one... overall very good performance. .
only issue is no comforter inlet .

Pretty reliable, my I don't know how many years midea still alive & kicking

good to hear and appreciate your sharing

yes midea is fine

Not necessary, some top load can be more expensive than front load. You have any concern on the washing machine size? If size doesn’t matter, just choose based on the feature which you need. Example, some top load able to do hot wash but those cheaper one usually cannot

I have the same model.
if you got more money better dont go for this model...I’ve been using it almost a year.Sometimes it will suddenly stop like gear stuck when I wash the clothes and I need to manually continue. This issue usually happen when I wash almost full load

7.5kg very small not really good, at least get a bigger one. These days all washing machine are pretty much made with plastic materials, will eventually break within 5 -8 years.
Now some manufacturer claim that it comes with 10 years warranty. The truth is your electronics can be 1 year, the digital display also 1 year, the plastic housing material 1 year warranty, the mechanical part 10 years all only 1 time claim

Go for it. Served me well
The 7kg unit is very powerful
So delicate baju better use front load.

Midea lumayan la....
Bought 7.5g midea for my rented house, and the house is somewhat sold....
No heard of any issue neither.

never try never know!!
learn to take risk on certain things...

Louder than other washing machine

Can buy any brand except garbage from Samsung and LG.

DO not buy washing machine from this 2 brand.

Spend 5k for washing machine also kong in less than 2 years..

Useless Korean junk.

Stick with any Jap or China brand.

imo, panasonic is lousy too. my xp:
- auto water leveling (set by detecting my clothes weight) too low.
- the tub goes out of balance suddenly. i suspect something is wrong with 1 of the "suspension bar".
- fails to remove the accumulated chunks of dirt (after washing) via its filter (even when the machine was new)

Give other brands a try, your bad review is quite subjective, I find all new top load model auto water leveling is low because promoting water saving
Chunks of dirts I don't think any other similar washing machine can do any better, tough dirts always need intensive cleaning to clean by hand, no washing machine
have guarantee dirt cleaning to date, its only about which better than the other which I believe very minor difference unless hot water feature might make little bit more differences.

Tub goes out of balance suddenly sounded like temporary, if it goes bad it goes bad, it doesn't goes bad in a while, if still under warranty better claim from them.

Speed Queen je la https://speedqueencommercial.com/my/products/

Tarak ambik balik rugi max tu..

Theres a new no hole tub, TOP loader from sharp with black glass top, gentle on clothes.

Because i saw many videos show ctrl panel damage only on washing machine, thus prefer this design to minimize faulty.

thanks for ur sharing...will take into consideration

guess also depends luck as some ppl can use thing up to 10 years
for my fam is actually just nice for 7.5 or 8kg..due to the space designated for it is not that huge hence can't go for bigger one

2 years alrd kong? goshhh that's bad

ohh didn't come across this...thanks and will check it out

thx for reco....no hole tub sounds good

okay okay je. use almost 5 years still okay

like iphone, x70 and huawei 5G?

i guess likely to fail first is the pcb, u have 3 years warranty for that. touch wood anything go wrong after that, you can find a replacement board for around RM100.

Good not cheap
Cheap not good

Is it normal for midea front load to make high pitch noise during spin?

Washing is ok, during spinning 5 minutes last, the sound made is too shrill.

I'm first time using front load at home, usually only at coin laundry
