washing machine

[foxy_girlfriend]

20 years ago we started sing fully automatic washing machine. my parents bought the toploaded whirlpool. it lasted more than 10years kaso if laging nababasa yung ilalim lalo a couple of inches lang elevation niya from the floor
nagrarust yung ilalim humihina yung base. after 13 years bumili uli parents ko ng bnew.

In my case we bought the fully automatic sharp top loaded (8kg cap). we bought it 2nd hand for 5500 pesos. original price niya that time is around 20k. ngayon nasa 15k na lang yata. rarely used siya kasi laging nasa abroad may ari. almost 5 years na namin ginagamit we never had a problem. At once to thrice a week namin ginagamit. Never namin pinarepair. No weird sounds.

I am happy nadeliver na ang WM namin and we tried it, I was satisfied. Of course I need 5 or more years to really say that I am really satisfied with the WM we bought!

We are using a Daewoo front load washer and a whirlpool dryer. Sobrang convenient kasi hate kong magsampay.

So far, I'm happy with both. I just make sure na sa pinaka maikling cycle lang ako naglalaba, at the same time I tell my husband na dapat lagi magpalit ng damit para lightly soiled lang ang mga clothes.

Tip ko lang sa inyo - although medyo OT na ito.  Para hindi magkalawang agad yun surfaces ng washing machine at even ref ay use car wax on it.  If may kalawang na use rust remover then at least cover the area - after ma-dry ng primer.  May nabibili na spray paint naman na white sa mga hardware store. 

And para hindi mabasa masyado yun ilalim ng washing machine make a good stand for it.  Hollow blocks of good worth will do naman.  Huwag wood as mabubulok lang.

sis mikelly, thanks. last year ko pa talaga gusto bumili ngayon lang talaga nangyari, kaya sarap ng feeling everytime nakaka invest ng appliance.

nice to know na madami ng affordable fully automatic washing machines nowadays. I remember around 10 years ago, we bought ours for 35T, Elba brand.  Di ko sure kung umaandar pa dahil matagal na naming hindi nagagamit.

nagcanvass ako ng fully automatic washing machine sa abenson, the cheapest i saw was P9,995 which is Samsung 5 years motor warranty yung spinner nya plastic. Then yung isa ko pang pinagpipilian, LG around P10K+ stainless steel yung spinner.

Question: Ano kaya ang mas matibay and user friendly from your experience? Christmas gift ko sana sa mother ko.

TIA!

samsung is ok, although mine was 5 years ago

[simplykristine08]

^^ LG samin. okay naman, madaling gamitin. 2years+ na samin yung washing machine

[super bratinella]

Just had mine a month ago which is Samsung, but I am happy with it. Sana I will have the same feedback after 5-10 years..

we have an automatic front loader washing machine... as in lagay mo detergent, fabric softener, turn the dial and select from the choices (synthetic, quick wash, 40 mins, 45 minutes, 1 hour etc etc) tapos i turn on mo na tapos tuloy tuloy na sya.. iniiwan lang namin sya minsan lalabas kami ni hubby paguwi namin tapos na sya. sinasampay na lang namin. very convenient

sis how much and what brand? matibay ba? we wanna get a dryer to go with it para wala nang sampay sampay and no need to iron it na since paglabas mainit init pa... TIA
hubby inquired in dutyfree few days ago and 50k ang whirlpool an Automatic and dryer na...

[josierabara]

share ko lang... i bought a whirlpool automatic washing machine, pero after one and a half years, nasira yung pinaka computer box niya. reason: moisture. so dapat pala keep the top cover open until mag dry yung loob , and wipe excess water in and out of the machine every after use. i paid 4k for the computer box, i bought the machine 14k.

Just bought a fully automatic washing machine for 22k (discounted price sa ansons). And a dryer for 11k (naka promo na 50% off if you buy their washing machine. So sukit na. Just paid around 33k all in all. Electrolux brand. Parehong front load.

Ang ganda nito pag nasira yung isa, magagamit mo pa yung isa. Unlike kung washer/dryer in one.

We bought a Panasonic twin tub WM less than 2 years ago. Sirain. Halos sabay pa nagmalfunction ang washer and spinner. And to think hindi heavy duty ang gamit because we have one other washing machine. Baka minalas lang kami but I'm very disappointed. Next time, I'm getting a fully automatic one and definitely not a Panasonic.

[clueless]

^ sirain din yung lumang panasonic fully automatic na washing machine namin thats why i bought a new one and hindi na din panasonic.

^^ good deal yan ah. Gusto ko din talaga front load sana.

[super bratinella]

I am happy with my Fully auto WM. Since super tipid din sa kuryente at tubig, mas bumaba pa ang consumo namin.

Question to those who bought and have washing machines. I grew up na dependent sa washing machines even if may maid. When I got married, Hindi nags-washing machine ang family ng hubby ko, part ng job on ng isang help Ang mag handwash. So now that we have our own house, gusto ko bumili ng washing machine but my hubby says otherwise. Kesyo wala na daw gagawin yung isang help.

My question is may increase ba sa kuryente and water bills Ang pagkaron ng washing machine and for those who bought, ilan househelp nyo and what are their responsibilities?
