Have been using top loader all my life but planning to get a combo of a front loader washer and a heat pump dryer from Toshiba:
- Washer: TW-BK115GF4M(SK)
- Dryer: TD-BK110GHM(SK)

Anyone has an experience on these 2 model?

Anyone here using a single wall plug for a washer and heat pump dryer? Can't see any power rating on any of these machines other than the voltage rating. I guess it's not anywhere near to oven or cooking hob range?

To be safe, just don’t use them at the same time. Anything that can heat or cool draws more power from the socket. Even phillips steam iron pulls out so much that my monitor keeps flickering when they are being used at the same time.

Saw one of the Electrolux dryer unit consuming 2100W. If having 2 units running definitely will not be enough. Thank you.

Does anyone here own an LG RH10VHP2B dryer? On their website, the depth is stated as 690 mm but on their PDF manual, it is 660 mm. I have an elevated platform of 700 mm, not sure if it is enough for it to sit on it.

*edit*
I submitted an inquiry on LG's website. They gave a call to answer this question. The information on the website is wrong but the one on the PDF manual which is 660 mm is correct.
That really leave a good impression.

Panasonic?

I would also recommend top load Panasonic. They are just work horse that never die. At most, only the belt needs replacement or pulsator over many years of usage, that also if you also overload them.
For front load, I'm using a LG FV1412S3B. Does the job quite well but only spinning at high speed is too loud and scary for my liking.
LG technician is saying it's normal.

Maybe its your floor trap overflow? Since you said suddenly no more leaking.

Or try to run the tub clean mode and monitor again, because that mode will pump in a lot water and let it remain in the drum. That's how I discover my door seal is leaking a bit.... it doesn't leak if I use the usual washing modes

I have seen this once or twice. When you have less clothes but still put a lot of detergent, the bubbles will be more. This will cause some water overflowing at the outlet pipe on the floor.

The newer Panasonic top loader basically didn't change much the design internally. Even the interface is same (electronics underneath same) with some new front faceplate and rearrangement. Mine lasted around 20 years. Usually the parts that needs change is the pulsator and the belt. Both of these doesn't need any technician to change, you can do it yourself. At the end it look quite worn off already, bought another TL from Panasonic.

I have the FV1412S3B for 1.5 years now. Works great without issue. Love the ability to set the temperature.
I was planning to buy the dryer you listed as well last time with the space and cabinet ready but was short of fund back then.
But, it doesn't seem I need it as I feel the warm on the clothes from the washer helped to dry it faster.
