The manufacturing have to cover the whole unit. Not specific part. Even it make by your supplier.

Normally design a part, you need to test it the durability and life cycle. It doesn't need alot of time to do it with software technology now. So no reason for them not cover with warranty.

If it is your supplier parts, it is you responsible to get a good supplier. Even you don't loose your money if the part spoil. You claim it from the supplier.

My washer/dryer was sent back for "bearing" problem. Electrolux told me that bearing is under warranty but they discovered my door casket is damaged. They said the door casket is not covered under warranty and they have to charge me.

This is unacceptable. I wonder if they just made up story to charge me.

Any advice what I can do?

my wd8122cvb (2 in 1 with dryer) just dead cannot spin keep on error E5.

the repair man said not worth it to change the motor seems motor faulty already.

Quite love the air wash feature though, almost zero using the dryer..

Hmm now looking for replacement.. Electrolux?

Btw, anyway to dispose our washing machine?

been using 8kg, Sharp ES-N80JM for 6 years and started giving problem now.

when washing time the water will rise up to max and then beep beep beep sound. spinning seems no problem though.
i have to turn it off and on, manually choose rinse/spin manually then only it finish the job.

should i call for Sharp technician for repair or get other wm brand instead?

or any good TL wm brand recommendation? budget RM800 to RM1000  

Hey guys, my house WM of 39 years is giving way already.
just wondering what would be a recommended TL WM thats easy to use for older people. as the previous washing machine, its super basic (as you know lah.. almost 40 years edi.. so super basic, rinse, wash soak only)

was looking at the sharp ESX958 model as its within my 1K budget and its 9kg. and also the dimension would fit nicely (looking for dimension of around 540mm to 570mm in width)

do recommend if got other suggestions.

Does anyone a regular user of TOP front load powder? Does it makes your detergent drawer moldy like mine?

I've been using the powder for around 3 months now and I just realized this powder gave out most mold and mildew on the detergent drawer compared with previously used MaxKleen and Persil.
But both Persil and TOP left behind hardened detergent residues inside the detergent drawer. Does anyone ever succeed to remove them? Makes my drawer ugly with white spots.
Now switching back to MaxKleen.

Gonna ask a noob question here...for several years I've been using a top loader in a rented unit and noticed there's like a trap for lint. Now at my new place I'm using a front loader but there's no such thing for front loaders i believe. So question is, where do these lint go in a front load washer?

If you decide to change the pump, protect it with this as reviewed here. But the design may be such  that small coins could will still not be caught if the water flow is too strong esp if they are gaps around the drain leading to the sump pump. Bro dayalan86 faced this issue.

Thanks for the lengthy guide.

I had back washed the sump. Stuck a hise with running water in the sump and in the drain hose. Water flushed into the drum... and it worked in declogging the house n pump sump...

Yup quite few times  d happened... old washing machine d...

No idea, I came across the article whilst reading kadenwatch. The manufacturer link is there so if not in Daiso, I guess it may  be in Rakuten.

Ok. I guess it's a design preference. On the Hitachi, the shunt emptying into the sump drain allows the old 50sen coin to fall into it as it's a larger plastic moulded part which either joins or is part of the sump assembly. It's not flexi or rather the down pipe leading into the sump drain that I need to clean with my fingers is plastic rather than some form of flexible rubber.

Wow, is considering the later iterations of the Panasonic FL a wise choice? Hopefully they would have correct the design flaw. They should at least wash with a variety of coins from all over the world and test it in the machine to see where thinks will go wrong. I've had coins, stickers, small tourmaline beads from a burst magic ball casing, their metal pins all come out in the sump drain. A coin occasionally would be found in the gasket also. I would imagine after the initial burst event there could be remnants still and had to use tub clean to stir and agitate so that they eventually wound up in the sump which they did.

The one that irk me most is a layer of caked softener that I would very much like to wash off but have to plan how not to wet the washer stand too much as is wood. Also will need a flexible necked bottle brush to scrub it out with running water.

My friend's Tromme 10.5kg washer dryer still going strong 10 years since they bought it. A testament to LG's washing machine product engineering. I have to find out if they replaced or serviced anything.

Yes, the same I guess with all FL, the gasket is where mold proliferate esp the hidden unseen parts. Clorox no detrimental effect on the rubber long term? To use, do you wear protective gear means have to put on goggle and mask and open window while cleaning?

If you can can take a picture of the sump drain plug and the sump drain of the LG? If your machine is mounted on the floor rather than raised on blocks, in order to drain, if they have a black hose, have to use some kind of plastic bag but raised slightly so the water don't spill all over the floor.

Wonder how the coin can be escape.

My LG combo drum hole not even bigger that a 5cent coin. No way it can even go through the filter before pump.

Hi,
My Panasonic washing machine start having problem this week. The water does not fill and i can see it flowing out.
It just happens suddenly on a washing load.
Does anyone know if this is an easy fix or will it be costly?
This machine I think is about 10 years old, and had already been through one fix that costed me 600-700 few years ago.

The model is like the pic attached yet I am not sure if it is same capacity.

Any reason why no discussion at all about semi auto wm? 😜

Thinking to get 1.. But don't want spend too much since it's for my aged father who probably don't really know how to use 1.... Worry buy d then don't use habis waste.

all the sifu,,, who can repair this PCB board????? help..

Make sure the model you choose got a big door. My 9KG FC1409S3W has big door. I think smaller ones don’t.

ThinQ mobile app is convenient. Will notify you when wash complete, and can do remote wash. Load up, enable remote wash on the washer, then you can start the wash anytime you want on the app..Why you need this feature? Depends, I use it to remote start a wash before I come back, so when I come back the wash just complete and I can hang dry it. Don’t want damp clothes sitting in the washer. Better it’s just freshly washed.
My friend got 2 of it. Overloaded one of it and it spoiled. Fixed under warranty. Otherwise no complaints.

Delay start? Don’t know.

Remote start is on demand. When I press the button in the app my phone.

I guess if you set delay start, go out, and suddenly got errands to run, the delay start will proceed and you can’t change it. Whereas the app... starts on my command.

Currently surveying for Washing Machine... Confuse on what/which to buy..

Does anyone has any rough idea on how the Energy Consumption Star Rating is given?
I mean... I saw 2 washine machine comparison...

Haier 10kg WM, 4 Stars, 29.2kwh yearly
Sharp 12kg WM, 3 Stars, 69.35 kwh yearly

How accurate is this measurement..
Does that mean the Haier one is much energy saving compared to the Sharp one (estimating both handles the same amount of loads)
Or is it because the Haier one uses DD Inverter motor and the Sharp doesn't?
