I don’t recommend front loading washing machine because the tub and the rubber ring can get very moldy even though you leave the door open after every wash or wipe dry. There is no way you can wipe inside, beneath the tub. And the rubber, just pull and see under it’s all black.

don't buy Toshiba top loaded washing machine. It has 2 years warranty and I have only been using it for 1.5 years already got problem when spinning. The washing machine will bang very loud. Luckily still under warranty but it is as though a known issue because the technician knows what to order and replace based on my description.

Toshiba is bought by midea...Well, today the technician came to fix the washing machine..he said the suspension got problem and also the drum.
All changed and now it's working fine. But I dont really like the hassle of waiting and not having to use the washing machine for few days..
now they fixed already I noticed water. leaking from the bottom..

I used Electrolux front loader for 8 years before the rubber just came off...the engine is still working fine, so I thought to change to top loader because of the inside of the rubber always got black mold...no matter how I let it dry or wipe it...
Top loader also makes my shirt collar loose...unless its the high quality like superdry that kinda reinforced the neckline so it won't go out of shape..
how long have you been using your Panasonic WM? my mom also using pana wm for many years..no problem like mine...

Yeah avoid Samsung. They look nice on the outside but inside cannot last. Even for fridge I will go for Panasonic,
