Hi, everybody

I did not know there is a forum on laundry shop, LOL.

Well, I did have a laundry shop in the 90' but have to sell off because of too high capital involved.
The wash machines & dryers were American made.

take very long time to cover cost plus the service & maintenance from the seller.
Every time they come when there is problem, they charge RM50 to a 100 as service. That was a few times a month.

So add extra service, photocopying.

Anyway sold off everything.

Then I started a hostel with coin-operated washing machines & dryers
But they are locally fabricated, ie Toshiba Washing Machine & the coin operated mechanism is locally made.

And it have been working more than 10 years now without breakdown.

I was charged RM3000 for the coin operated mechanism and the washing machine was bought from Tesco, RM1000 plus.

Still working well except the dryers which are Kelvinator so have changed to other dryer.

I use top loading washing machine.

If you really want to set a Laundry shop, do a SELF SERVICE type which is very popular now.
