The Mighty Fridge freezes your supplies with frozen spells and pathetic you await salvation need to confront with another hurdle imposed by the cruelty Whirlpool Queen. Behold dirty clothes.
My barracks of armies has another new recruit, THE washing machine.
Ok, straight to the point.
Points to concern when getting a new washing machine:
1. Loading Type
Front Loading (You put in clothes from the front panel) and Top Loading (You flip open the top cover and put your clothes in)
2. Workload
It defines as the weight of clothes and water that the machine is able to handle easily. In other words, you can actually overload the machine by putting in heavier garments but this will definitely reduces its lifespan.
3. Motor rotation mechanism
See whether the rotation of motor is driven by a belt or direct drive mechanism (No belt involved)
4. Warranty
Make sure the warranty is actually endorsed by the original manufacturer and not from the shop themselves.
I've shortlisted a few of the candidates and one of it is the following babe:
Toshiba AW D950SM
General Feature
Direct Drive (DD) Inverter
Zero Standby Power
Triple Air Super Spin Dry
Hybrid Screw Pulsator
Less Noise & Vibration
Fuzzy Logic
Condensed Bubble Wash
8.5KG workload, Direct Drive (Non-Belt) and 2 Years General Warranty
with 5 Years Motor Warranty.
Initial call price was RM1045 (Promotional price). I didn't manage to push for lower price due to obvious reason: Mrs. Nerdy don't like it. She found out that the diameter of the loader are actually relatively smaller than one of the Panasonic 8KG model and also abit shallow.
Then we looked at Panasonic NA-F80G6 model.
Slightly smaller workload (Only 8KG) than the Toshiba model, BUT with larger loader.
G6 comes with AquaBeat feature (No idea what is that, read below) and A6 model without AquaBeat.
AquaBeat
Powerful Water Flow Blasts Off Dirt
More powerful water flow than ever before penetrates deep into fibers to beat out ingrained dirt. Working together with Panasonic's innovative Foam Wash, this removes stubborn stains for fresh, clean washing every time.
Starting price @RM1399. Hitting and knocking that pity salesman again. Finally arrived @RM1100. Even better, we paid only RM1099 when checking out. Extra RM1 discount courtesy of a lady in the shop (No idea who is she).
