LG or Samsung have a more choice

Have you use before?

If you use dryer, you need to dry at least 3 hours to have completely dry, usually the dryer will have one hour to dry only, it will not be completely dry for jeans and other thick clothes, underwear or inner wear will dry within 1 hour.

My suggestion, air dry after wash is better because it will dry within 1 hour if you install a fan at your washing area.

Dryer is usually used in cold weather like Europe or Japan or Korea where they have snow

Hello,

Sorry for the delay in responding.

Since I am not in Penang, and my dad haven’t made the purchase yet.

Why LG makes a “better” machine than Electrolux? Again, “better” is in the eye of the beholder, no offense to anyone.

1) Direct Drive in LG versus the belt driven drum in Electrolux.

2) Looking at 3-4 years old LG vs. Electrolux. Electrolux generates more with less stability. If noise is resulted from friction, that means greater noise represent greater wear and tear on moving parts. My dad lives in an apartment which noise does play a role into our purchase decision compare to landed property.

3) Based upon Bloomberg business news, LG and Samsung represent close to 30% market share in a “free market” does says something; Especially top rated by various consumer group in US and UK. It can’t be achieve just by “pure luck”.

4) In general, for Direct Drive washing machine, it should be silence while the machine is spinning at max speed, drum empty. It’s like sitting in the Lexus and you don’t even know if the engine is turned on. I have seen both LG and Samsung achieving this with LG win by slight margin. Again, the demo was set up by LG and could be bias

If there were no LG and Samsung in the market, I might go with Hitachi instead of Electrolux,

For less than RM2K, I might choose LG over Samsung due to Inverter and Direct Drive.
For RM2.5K range, I might go for Samsung 8kg. It’s sad to see Samsung has replaced the older model, WW80H5400EW which has digital inverter with newer model, WW80H5290EW which doesn’t. It’s perplexing.

I could be wrong, it seems to me Malaysia market has the "strip down" version of everything; from cars to washing
machine.

Just my 0.02.

Regards,
Kevin

Just browsed through this model in Sharp's website.  Looks like it's washer & dryer combo which makes sense about the the price : RM 5000.

Sharp or Pana & hitachi also got heat pump dryer

I am not representing anyone, and I have no vested interest (let me be clear here). So far, my household appliances, I find good deals here:

Jintex (ada website)
Living Portal (tarak website, they're at Dataran Pandan Prima)
http://lifegood.com.my/

Sorry folks, only for Klang valley peeps...

Heat pump or condenser just time to dryer up in same time.

Also combo machine if either one failure the repair cost would be double and stop your washing function also.

Heat pump just lower usage wattage only to compare on
normal vented or condenser wattage will be double up.

But for combo usually just offer lower weight only.

Living Portal is G33 Jalan Pandan Prima 2, Dataran Pandan Prima, Ampang. Near Ampang MRR2 Tesco. They don't have any website. You can call to ask quotation: 03 9200 4511

Lifegood.com has nothing to do with LG. Just a name in coincidence. Although Life's Good is used by LG as a slogan, LG actually means Lucky Goldstar (remember this old Korean brand???)

Beko avoid please. Bad experience with their fridge. Apart from that, avoid also dryer + washing machine combo. Usually problematic... Get a separate unit. If lack of space, can buy a stacking kit to have the dryer stacked up on top of the washer.
