Has anyone tried LG Washtower? Any reviews?

Based on the price, not everyone will buy even if reviews are 5*

same here, the price so get me frighten~~ l will buy if im loaded like hell yeah

If the tower got half of the capacity and price around 7 8k that will be great though. The capacity too large for my small family. Of course that is too expensive

Hi, I plan to buy a washing machine for the first time, so I need recommendation or review from you all.

I plan to buy a front-load type with budget RM 1.8k and my main concern is reliability. After doing some reviews, I able to narrow down to these 3 models:

1. LG WD-MD8000WM (8kg)
2. LG FV1285S4W (8.5kg)
3. NA-127XB1WMY (7kg) / Panasonic NA-128XB1WMY (8kg)

I personally prefer LG (especially FV1285S4W) as I saw many people recommend LG over other brand in this thread.
However, I saw a youtube review on FV1285S4W, said due to the high-efficiency water rating, it have low water level issue which will cause the detergent not wash out properly. [ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MzTlIXjpo7I...teve%27sReviews ].
So I wonder anyone that owned LG washer have facing and annoy about that issue?

Regarding Panasonic FL washer, I saw some people said it have sensor/ balancing issue and less reliable than LG.

Since you have little doubt on the two brands, no answers can convince you to buy either one.

Even the most reliable brand can be less reliable if is a lemon unit and no brands can claimed to be faultless.

That is where warranty and after sales service comes in.

Unless you have budget restriction, go survey other brands and buy the 'best' and pray for the best.

Ya, I understand that every electric appliance can be faulty easily if you are bad luck, and I also knew after sale service are important.
That is why I consider Panasonic because I knew its customer service is good even though its washer is not famous compare with other brands.

From what I read from various post, I saw Electrolux and Bosh's customer cs are bad, then LG are average. Hence I not consider Electrolux and Bosch washer for now.
Toshiba I didn't saw any people mentioned its cs yet, but I saw many said Toshiba only good on top-load, so I exclude it first.

After doing more research, now I am considering buying LG top-load, as top-load are should less troublesome on maintenance compare with front-load. TL also have more choice and larger capacity based on my budget.

I am using a Toshiba top load 11kg for more than 5 years. It is direct drive and made in Japan. No problem todate.

It was the first 2 brands with direct drive then and intro by the salesman.

Silent when running??Now price almost RM2K, should buy it early.

very silent; just slight whirring. At least i didn't hear its noise in the living room.

Great. I will consider it. DD motor LG is the best.

Hi guys, any recommendations for front load washer with dryer ?

Or better get 2 units washer and dryer ?

Saw Samsung brand and alot of features/ functions, worth ?

Panasonic's new Care+ front load models... seems interesting and a bit confusing actually

The washer only model seems to have a bit of drying function as well

Washer only model

Washer + dryer model
https://www.panasonic.com/my/consumer/home-...-s106fr1bm.html

wonder whats the difference

separate 2 unit is better, combination is much more time consuming that make uou crazy

Ouch . That sad.. condo yard limited space 😭

Buy those that are stackable. You can stack dryer on top of washer

did you means the lg tower or the twin load washer?
so high price
