There are many combinations available for a front load washing machine and dryer. I am referring to 2 separate machines here.
Thus I seek for your suggestions and experiences on getting these.
This came about when I first saw Toshiba promoting such a set that comes with some sort of stacking device. My first thought was, wouldn't the vibration from the dryer topple the dryer at the top of the washing machine. From online search so far it's the only combo for that RM3000 price range not including delivery.
7.5Kg inverter washing machine TWBH85S2M 7Kg dryer TDH80SEM RM2198
Or is it even possible to combine different brands for the stacking?

Check whether the dryer is a ducted or condenser type (at that price, i doubt it is heat pump). Ducted type would require running a duct to the outdoor to pump discharge the hot, moist air. Condenser type has a condenser to collect the moisture and store it in a tank which needs to be emptied.

Its possible even from other brands, they will sell a stacking kit that basically serves as a mount between top n bottom machines. I see such kit exist for bosch, electrolux, beko to name a few..available for purchase online too. However if you wish to mix n match diff brands top n bottom care must be taken to check physical dimensions as interbrand compatibility not guaranteed.

Since there isnt any standard on the stacking kit, it might be risky to have mixed models. Yes, agree with you on that.

Thanks for the tip. Looks like H80SEM dryer is vented. Needs to vent out hot air through a flexible hose. Didnt understand the difference of duct/vented and condenser. That helped to clarify.

Some dryer can be wall mounted, especially vented type as they are typically quite light compared to condenser / heat pump type dryers. Heat Pump dryers are the most energy efficient and the most expensive type as well.

Largest updates All advice that a good front loader combination can't be found for that price range. Better to have a top loader washing machine and another dryer matching. Will increase budget to RM3500.

Better to have a top loader washing machine and another dryer matching. Will increase budget to RM3500. should be within that range.. some of the forum do propose using BEKO and Teka..

Unless your laundry area is very pack, it is not so advice to stack them up, it is quite a hassle to transfer the clothes when it is done washing up to the dryer

Actually it is possible. Just built a rack that can withhold the weight of the dryer and you are good to go.

But when one problem occurs, you can't use any of the functions. Don't know must wait until when the repair can be done. Meanwhile no washer and no dryer.
