Convenient is the keyword.
No worries of going out and left your clothes under the rain.

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.

My only issues with dryers is wrinkles, esp on T-shirt pants
coming from bosch or general brands
I generally don't iron nor fold my clothes,
Most of them are on a rack and that's how I dry them as well

Samsung front load lasted 10 years before the absorber mounting on the drum housing broke

Bought a replacement unit for the same price I paid 10 years ago.

The tumbling motion of the clothes in the front loader will make you feel cleaner. But the rubber door might get moldy.

Only lazy people will get moldy problem



I never have this problem

After using, just wipe down the rubber gasket.
Leave the door and the detergent holder open. Let it have air circulation and dry
Once in every few months, do a tub mode cleaning. I do mine every 3 or 4 months. Just ran the tub clean yesterday. Whole cycle takes about 3.5 hours.

I like top loader.

Front loader must bend down. throw clothes in it will fall out.

Top loader just throw everything in and throw in some soap kaotim. And if forgot to put some clothes in can still add in later.

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.

Combo don't dry well isn't it

That's because you are over loading it.

Use it for 10-12 year.
Kaputed.
Water pump x 2
Water actuator x 1
Pcb x 1
Door hinge cracked (no water leaking)

It's still working well when I retire it albeit shaky when spinning n louder.

Combo requires cleaning and maintenance every few yrs.

The lint clogs the sensor and the air return duct.

Do not overload the drum 1/2 line for tumbling.

I still use combo and dry well the cloth.

Wrinkles only happen if you keep your clothes in the dryer or in the basket for too long after it finished drying. Normally if you don’t just let you clothes sit in the dryer or in the basket for too long, you don’t even have to iron your clothes.

And Bosch even have “reduced ironing” function that would keep rotating your clothing at certain interval after finished drying, to keep your clothes from creasing.
