Sharp is garbage. Had a sharp washer previously i dont quite remember whether its 2 or 3 years warranty only. But well the washer literally spoilt right after warranty ended and lan lan changed to my current panasonic washer where i have been doing 2 washes per day for years and still going strong.

Mine is Electrolux. 11 years still okay. Wash once a week. Came with condo, so didn't have a choice.
No wonder can last so long. One year wash 52 times only. Think wash till eternality also won't hit its washing lifespan bah.

Think if daily wash, can see 7 years is considered good liao perhaps.

yeah, Sharp is no longer a reliable Japanese appliance brand, I believe the brand name was sold to a tiong company.

for me the dubious honour for shortest washing machine life belongs to Sharp - used 2years kong and beyond economical repair to fix the electronic circuitry

lol

2 times a week ba
No wonder. Always wonder how many can often quoted their washer lasted 10 years or more. Very likely is wash once or twice a week only. Think if daily wash, can see 7 years or more is consider pretty good liao.

Not sure others, but tend only see those who daily wash how long it can last, then think its a real gauge. Singles and such hard to gauge as their wash maybe not regular. But for typical family with young kids, usually is wash daily one.
