I bought the 16 kg Panasonic's econav I washer. I think can wash 2 king size comforters at a time. RM1800 plus ext warr RM 320.

I read bad reviews in LG. Panasonic has the largest capacity for RM 1800..16 kg top loader. Washed my comforter like it is a bedsheet! Dried in a few hours.

U can't load a comforter in a 7 kg. It won't move.

I bought the panasonic top loader eco navi NAFS16G3 for RM1800 plus RM320 for 1+4 extended warranty. Reason is, I am scared the board will burn after 3 years and I dont have warranty...

Anyway, the reason I bought was the control board at the back of the washer instead of in front. For a top loader, the control at the back makes more sense as you wont wet it when you load in presoaked clothes and when taking out clothes to dry.

I was looking around for toshiba but did not see any at RM1600 for 16kg! Most units I saw are rather expensive.

Been washing 4 comforters since I bought it.... saved Rm80 dobi fees...lol... It is awfully quiet...I keep forgetting it is on!

My panasonic 16kg has gentle wash and I am using normal wash. Clothes are ok, not spoiled, unless you are washing very thin fabrics or your clothes are too old, maybe?

So far, buttons still attached and comforters are washed clean. No issue.

I have both quilt covers and comforters...so still have to wash large loads. On top of that, curtains too.

We chose Panaosic because of the control panel. Well, expect it to last 5 years trouble free because I paid for the extended warranty. For 16kg, it s quite gentle and so easy to use. I am using the sensor for most loads.... Just on, then start (2 buttons only) unless I am washing comforters... then On, choose comforter, choose water level, and add spin/rinse as required. The link trap is a plastic case, no more stupid lint bags which break and impossible to replace. We paid extra Rm320 for the extended warranty... still waiting for the cert 1+4 years. Total is about Rm2120...for 5 years... Rm400 a year? If it last longer than that, it is a bonus.

We chose Panasonic because of the control panel which is situated at the back instead of front. I dont need fantastic among of programs as I hardly use them. Most important, the control panel has to be at the back and only Panasonic have that. Why the control panel at the back is important for top loader?

It is logical. All american top loaders have their control panels at the back because you need a free space to load and unload your laundry. If you soak your laundry in a pail before washing, you will have to pour in the laundry, risk og wetting the control panel. Leaning a heavy pail on top of the control board is NOT a good idea.

If you have a front loader, the control board is always on top in the front because it allows you to push your washer under the counter or place a dryer on top. Loading wet laundry into the front dryer wont wet the control board.

I dont like front loaders because I have to bend down and I cant adjust the load without draining out the water first....cant add a sock or two or take out laundry halfway. Top loader are better for me, and water is not an issue here.

Panasonic has been very quiet and doing well. So far happy with it.

Why wont choose panasonic wm? This is the first time I buy an Panasonic wm this decade. if it last till 2020, I am happy.

The control panel has 3 years warranty, the drum (one time replacement) has 12 years but you have to register online.

We still need large washer in hot malaysia because we love comforters and super cool aircond!

Talk about wastage!

just lost 2 buttons! too strong, I think.

Of course it is not quite during spinning. I mean it is relatively quiet. As it is placed at the back of my house. the noise doesnt bother me....no loud noise...just normal spinning noise.

loving my panasonic so far. Easily wash the whole weeks load or anything you throw at it.
