Hi, it seems that many says the top load will spoil the clothes faster than front load. If I put my clothes into the clothes protector/netting and put into top load WM, my clothes will still spoil faster as compared to a front load WM?

Heard from a sales person fr ESH, LG no good cox susah nak cari spare part..also heard from a fren of fren (ex-electrical sales person) say LG no good..so far i can see most people recommend japanese brand instead of korea brand..for my personal thinking: design wise & funky funky technology , looks like LG & Samsung win

Front loaders vibrate more because they usually spin faster than top loaders.

First check if the washer is level and feet are firmly planted on the floor. Mine used to vibrate until I figured out the washer was uneven.

Second make sure the machine isn't overloaded because as it spins the heavy clothes will rise and drop back down.

Third not sure about front loader but for top loader sometimes clothes collect at one corner of the drum. Will wobble and vibrate excessively if the clothes are not evenly distributed.

Hope that helps!

edit: worst case maybe the drum spring/damper have worn off... I seen this in older machines.

Spin speed are not an issue, but i won't take higher speed type. Remember, a washing machine can serve you 8-10 years. Higher speed may result to higher vibration, fail faster.
If space limited for drying, use Top detergent, it is good even don't have sunshine.
