Many years ago, I was told by the salesperson that washing machines are the only few appliances that not recommended to use the energy saving ones. Not enough power to clean the laundry thorougly.

Not sure if it is still true.
The motor jiak how much power per wash lah. If the load is heavy. Motor weak it won't turn the clothes easily. If buy 10kg. How to know really the load put in is 10kg or more?

Water consumption got difference. My old Samsung one jiak more water cuz it fill more water to wash. My Panasonic one because it have this berzooka jet water tub it actually use less water.

As technology gets more advanced, new model uses less water n energy. I don know what's my weight of my laundry but I just bought a heavy load Bosch 10kgs washing machine. Each time I wash my laundry I ensure I only fill till half. So that it has sufficient space for laundry to turn around in the drum for cleaner wash n at the same time I wan to ensure I do not overload my machine. Those water absorbent bath towel usual usually very heavy when U wash it. Imagine my house needs to wash 6 towels per day.....the machine already taken up a few kgs liao. Tat is why I just load half drumb

Wa you buy 10kg fill half nia. My 10kg always fill at least more than 3/4. Sometimes almost full leave about 1 palm size

Cuz must maximise it wash one round. If 2 round mean more water and electric

More space means more room to wash well n clean, most importantly not to overload the machine. Even U go to laundry service company , they also fill half

Wash daily. My family always daily washing cuz many people. You imagine lah one round clothes for sure then towel consolidate is one round. So one week is 7 to 10 times usage.

Thats why i say samsung cmi one cuz immediately after warranty will break down cuz i believe they tested it daily usage for the warranty period for sure.

Other brands can last longer cuz they not lousy same Samsung.

The motors for all brands won't fail for sure cuz they dare say 10 years warranty motorI. So it's the other parts fail.

I buy techno and LG before also. They failed not because motor. They failed because other reasons like the drum screws for base spinner broke then can't spin the clothes. Then the stabilisers hook broke causing the drum unstable when spin dry etc. And other error code. Broke cuz heavy usage for many years is understandable.

If my washing machine can use 5 years is mean 10 years for those who wash 3 to 4 times a week.

That stupid Samsung is the only brand that fail so fast immediately after warranty that's why and its not cheap cuz almost double price than other brands 10kg loads.

Cuz we don't load small or half one. No point wash 2 times separately cuz that will waste electricity and water.

The machine say 10kg is mean build for 10kg surely.

Sometime we soak the clothes after water filled before washing cycle then power off. Or we press the soak function or stains function to delay washing. But all the clothes wash clean lah. No smelly

I understand, my Samsung washer also spoiled quite fast. What brand do you recommend?

I only use techno and lg and Samsung and now using Panasonic.

As mentioned. My washing machine is use daily heavily. If i can use 3 years liao mean other people who wash 3 to 4 times a week likely can use 6 years.

The samsung warranty is about 2 years and i extended the lifespan nearly 1 year myself by fixing the water inlet myself 2 times.

Samsung is most expensive among them almost double price. Techno is cheapest. I think last time boh simi inverter motor nonsense etc. My lg i duno got inverter or not.

After one time kana from Samsung i wake up and tell myself don't waste too much money buy expensive. So i went to Panasonic immediately cuz really Panasonic products really quite durable across many products.

10 people clothes to wash daily. You think my washing machine must heavy duty or not?
