Top load reliable? Hmmm I thought front load reliable

top load is simpler by design, thats the reason why it is cheaper. top load washer dont even need counterweights and shock absorbers.
but that doesnt mean that front load will be extremely unreliable.

Get a front load washer dryer combo. It's usually cheaper than buying 2 separate devices and takes up less space. Plus you'll save time since it can wash and dry in one go.

For large household, not recommend. The job done take very long time.

Combo ideally for 2-3person load wash.

I use LG combo.

(1) don't mix washing and dryer. as with other All-In-One devices, one function breaks down means the whole thing can't use.

(2) don't mix washing and drying especially when you are using with (huge) family. why waste time waiting 1 load to finish end-to-end when you can multi-task in parallel with 2 separate machines.

(3) between japanese and korean brands, choose japanese for it's longevity and reliability. though not wrong to choose korean if you are the sort of person who changes devices every year or two 😅

Prolly can only afford china brands

buying or renting? if rent some landlords provide washing machine to be placed in the house, unsure if rent increase or not though

some have, some don't
the ones that have are at a premium

Convenient is the keyword.

Because dryer is cleaner especially for people living in cities where dust could easily land on your clothes.

And of course, time. Hanging clothes to dry is time consuming. And if you don’t have a proper drying area, putting your foldable drying rack in your porch is an eyesore.

And dryer’s electricity consumption only costs you RM1 per day.

musim hujan also no need worry.

also I heard there's this hack where you can throw ice cubes into your drier and your baju will come out like ironed cantik cantik dy. never used a drier before so I haven't been able to verify this.

Get rid the detergent.

I sometime get rash from detergent residue on cloth. So I always use extra rinse.

It is also for baby cloth.

It is heaven in this monsoon season.

You will see more people go to coin laundry for the dryer in raining season.
