If you are going to wash big stuffs, then FL will not be the option.

A WM's job are pour water, spin, drain water, spin, pour water, spin, drain and repeating the same for few times. Nothing more than that.
What matters is the power consumption and duration. Not to mention reliability.
Now most companies are giving freaking long warranty which is still marketing gimmick as you can only claim once.

Looks like is a 2011 model.
Fail after 4 years
Anyway, check the plug's fuse or change to another plug point to verify.

If circuit board failure, it may not be the capacitor.

Bed sheet is not an issue, comforter and wash together with others may be issue.
When your old WM fail, get a 10KG WM.

Cost of FL over TL of > 10KG models are 3X to 4X.
Time used is at least 2X from TL.
Not to mention the detergent are also almost 3X.
Just to save few liters of water
But carbon generated from burning fuel to generate power are more But forgot, carbon generated from power station, not from our home, so for FL users, they are protecting the environment of their house, not the whole envirinment.

After working in Qatar for 9 months, what I need to dry my laundries properly is don't let them to stay wet for the first 6 hours. Humidity are relatively low over here, so I can't apply this in Malaysia. Now when I'm back to Malaysia, what I'll do is once complete the wash, I'll hang them under the fan and turn it to the max. It will be almost dried up by morning except jeans or thick cloths. The result is I don't have bad smell even using lesser detergent.
What makes our laundries to have bad smell is because the mold build ups over night when it is damp. By using fan to circulate it, it can prevent this from happening.
Still using my humble Toshiba TL that last me for 9 years

Nope, the keyword here is to dry it with proper ventilation ASAP. You may use dryer to dry, but if you keep overnight, it will still the same.

I'm using Samsung 7(or 8)KG FL in Qatar, even a queen size comforter it can't fit in While my 10KG TL can fit in king size with others also and work normally.
To wash my daily laundry of 1 cloth, pant, mask, socks and underwear, I need 1.5 hours to clean them properly. Low sud detergent are almost rm40 for 2KG compare to Top I'm getting for rm10 for 2.5KG. Using quick wash resulting to bad smell as it can't rinse my laundry properly. Have to use other options.

Now TL have more functions, so it won't really destroy fabrics.
But again, the goal is to have clean and less odor wash.

Ok then, now I buy a new Samsung 7KG and if cannot fit also, you have to come to my house and take it.
But you have to buy for me first.

Willing to accept the challenge or not?

I say 7KG cannot fit all but you say 12KG can fit all
I also knows that your wife is a woman

Toshiba or Panasonic.
But not Samsung, LG.

You mean now the Samsung washing machine can do something else rather than spin, drain, fill water and drain water? That's new for me

I'll only consider to buy other brands if it can do other jobs more than fill and drain water, spin and spin.
Other jobs I mean here is hang my laundries, it can jump
And beware of Samsung, they are infringing our privacy, so this will be the brand I'll avoid by all cost.

How big is a microphone
That's why I say you failed on every field

Panasonic or Toshiba

There are countries that using main power grid to transmit datas
That's why you failed in every aspects, spying machine using wifi, that's donkey years ago tech that advance spying countries won't use

Nope, they are doing this for all people that buy their products.
For me, once they have 1 product that can do this, all are potential. If already know there's potential, just avoid totally, simple as that.
