No worry okie, just get a better Bosch front loader, won't go wrong in term of cleaning performance. 

wf-hx120gv rrp = rm1999

quote from some shops...

HLK - 1699
TBC - 1720
TBM - 1750
Senheng - if member minus duno ? %
ESH - forgot, just call them
Onking - ?
Harvey - LG fler i met there said can get 1799.
these are my own assumption and opinion aft spending some time deciding/researching between fl tl...which brand... 

don't trust any advice frm sa, they will come out with any cock n bull when they want to dispose certain model....
today this good, trow that good...

washers today the quality is not the same like 10-20 years ago...

any brand/model will have the tendency to break down... luck is important... 
(maybe those expensive ones will have lesser chance)

For malaysia -
Samsung, LG - won't sell spare parts to consumers and dealers. ( called their cs to confirmed )
want to repair need to call them directly.

Pana, toshi, sharp, hitachi, electrolux - u can go there and buy parts on ur own.

LG is one of the world's largest washer manufacturer, top selling in US for several years,
their washer is sold in alot of countries.

Japanese brand mostly in SEA... can't even get/DL their user manual to study.

tbc....
