Came across the panasonic NA-F90s3 (9.0kg) selling for RM1199. Seems ok with delicate function which is important for me. Anyone experienced with the model os are there any newer alternatives i can consider?

Guys im stuck between both Panasonic NAF100-G3 Panasonic and the Samsung WA10F5S3QRY/FQ Samsung with both being 10kgs capacity and with delicate function.

Just as i was complimenting myself on how good i am for not breaking my budget, the word econavi changed my life.

INVERTER

Now i just got myself a fridge and inverter. And turns out washing machines also comes with inverter. With the panasonic model NAF100-S3 with the econavi function. Exactly the same one as i what i had in mind but with inverter.

So my question, how significant will having an inverter for washing machine be for me in terms of savings and how much will the price difference be since the guy at harvey norman paradigm mall couldnt seem to help much..

What confuses me is whether the inverter in washing machines are just a gimmick since even in older WM we manually choose the water level to suit the washing capacity.

Unfortunately, Malas person like me need WM...later hand wash tangan not smooth wife complain

Ok got myself a samsung non inverter washing machine (samsung wa85f5s3).

But i have a question on how elevated can the drain pipe be as my drain hole is quote far so i made a piping for the drain pipe. However my concern is on weather the outlet is too high or might stress the machine during drainin process

Photos for references

Damn..i considered sawing off a portion of the plastic pipe but guess it wont work.. Im worried if i cut the whole pipe to be parallel with the floor, the water will also flow out from the wrong end..maybe i have to consider elevating the wshing machine?

Or do i have any other alternatives?

Can refer here

As the pipe is laid flat down on the floor, my worry is the water can flow both ways, to the drain on where it came from.

But maybe if i saw to the joint like u mentioned, physics will say it will flow the other way right? Will definitely give that a try. Thanks!
