      Hi Ladies


      Is anyone using a front load washing machine and is happy / unhappy with it? Please share.

      Am in desperate need to replace my 8 kg Brandt front load washing machine, which is not worth repairing. It's only 3 and a half years old! Current repairs cost $3xx and then touch panel also going to 'kaput' so that will cost at least $2xx.

      My previous washer was an Electrolux and it served me well for 11 years. Current models are made in Thailand so not sure if still reliable.

      HELP. Have to find a reliable front load washer quickly. In my household, we can't live without a washing machine... :?:
      I just bought a new LG front load 8kg from courts. The Motor has a warranty for 10 yrs and I bought another 3 yrs warranty from courts, therefore normal spare parts repair will be under the warranty of 5 yrs. main reason that I bought it is not many washer gives 10 years warranty on motor.

      The salesman recommend this as it is using inverter direct drive system. http://www.lg.com/sg/washing-machines

      Compare to my Brandt which using 2 hours to finish the washing cycle, LGuses only 1 hr and use even lesser water than my Brandt front load.
      This is just my experience using LG and Brandt.

      Btw, my MIL using Bosch front load and it only lasted 2 yrs. MIL has a habit of washing everyday with 1/4 load.

                        I suppose it really depends on your relationship and whether you trust that your husband has good reasons and has a good chance of completing the studies. Also whether the studies are really useful in work or other areas of life, and whether you can support the family on your income plus paying for fees. My husband did stop work and study full-time for 4 yrs, and we initially agreed that I would work and we would also use our savings, and he would try to get funding. In the end, I only helped support him for 1 yr as we had a baby and he got a scholarship. I would do the same again, but I had full confidence in my husband's ability to complete the course and that he had good reasons for wanting to do it. I see that your husband has tried before but didn't complete the course, so that should be taken into account.
