Tips on getting a new washing machine

I were looking for a new washing machine lately due to the existing one has broken down.

This was the third time repair, I afraid the repair won’t work and it will be too costly. Thus, I decided not to go for further repair if the cost more than USD10 or USD15 the maximum.

The push factors that pushed me to look for a new machine are not only the repair number, it might due to my husband keep complaining that this machine doesn’t wash the cloth properly and clean.

Moreover, the capacity is seems smaller, 7 KG for 4 pax family size after 10 years usage.

 

Thus, I have done some research on how to get a best washing machine for a small family like mine, hope this helps those look for  a new washing machine as well.

  1. Front loaded or top loaded? Some say the front loaded can wash the cloths clean compared to the top loaded type, but I have checked in the market that there is no such theory can support this saying.

Moreover, the detergent choice for front loaded are limited and more costly compared to the top loaded.

  1. Capacity. For a family of 4 pax, 9 KG or 10 KG is enough for daily usage and even bed sheet washing. However, if you choose to wash the K-size comforter at home, you might need a machine which is 13KG.

I choose to send my comforter to the auto laundry mart which only cost me USD1 or USD1.20 for 14KG load size instead of have to invest more in the washing machine at home.

  1. Look for those brands that can provide longer motor warranty duration. Take for example, Toshiba provides 12 years warranty compared to Panasonic brand, thus I opt for the former.

 

However, my machine was able to be repaired at USD13 with the tape replaced, thus I am still using my old Midea , the Chinese brand washing machine at home now. Anyway, replacement of a new one should not be long if my pocket is deep enough. Hehe!

    • I am using this washing machine for the past 12 years This is great. So far I never had any trouble. It was a Top Loader. When I purchased it was the only model available with drier. A good mechanism that made the work easy. The speed and other activities are perfect. The credit goes to my wife who maintains it perfectly following the instructions meticulously. I am damn bored of this washing machine as it is giving looking dull. When I expressed it to my wife she kept it in her mind. A week back I saw a new washing machine. I thought that it was really a new one.
      But, wife got the cover totally replaced.
      I really surprise why couldn't I get this idea.
      I never had an opportunity to go for a new one.
