Planning to move out at the start of the year
Most of the places are unfurnished or semi-furnished
So I need to buy some big ticket appliances
Washing Machine is one of em


I like front loaders much more though

Live alone?? Renting??

Those self service laundry places.

How else you gonna meet an awek/cewek?

I generally don't like to waste time at those places.
I like to use my own detergents as the ones given by those places are an irritant to my skin

(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.
No worries of going out and left your clothes under the rain.

QUOTE(blanket84 @ Dec 3 2022, 02:15 PM)
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.

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

must have feature, heat pump and ability to set wide range of drying temperature

steam & auto moisture sensing is great, but those parts don't last long

yup, heat pumps are far efficient as well

choose one within ur budget, chna brands are affordable if rosak after 1 or 2 years just changed new... otherwise go for branded ones but most importantly get the extended warranty as will keep u peace of mind fr 3 to 5 years..

Found a toploader from midea for rm550, with shipping.
Maybe going for that one.

Money has been tight and I'm still under b40 cat.
Just can't take living with shitty housemates anymore.

During study time, I bought a 5+ year old LG front loader, had it's skirting and exfill pump broke
Fix both of em myself.

Unfortunately in Malaysia, used goods = not taken care off
