Which brand of washing machines is the best? This time we picked Electrolux after Haier broke within a single year.
ones not opening from above for burgeromutts
>>106634651Is it also a dryer or just a washer
>>106634651wtf is that on the left
>>106634651Anything with a digital panel like that is doomed to last 4 years at best.
>>106634687It's called a dirty shit ass sink. OP couldn't even clean it to take a fucking picture. That's how little respect he has for the fine people of this board.
>>106634651The cheap one, it's a fucking washing machine.
>>106634651all i have seen are good candy whirlpool boschmaybe sideloading bosch
>>106634651my favorite brand: God(tm)just decide on the variant(race) you like the most and try to find a cute model before purchasing.
>>106634680only washer but rated for 7kg
>>106634714Whirlpool a shit, bearings died during warranty and then another time just after it ended, threw it away and replaced it with an AEG (Electrolux) around 5 years ago
>>106634702>scrubbing down your laundry room sink to take a picThat's the most womanly thing I ever heard of
>>106634702
>>106634651the average eastern europoor bathroom:>filthy soviet radiator>generic and ugly tiles>dirty sink with shitty soap bars and a toothpaste (wtf)Grim, also just buy a samshit, it just werks (10+ years now).
this washing machine still werks after 30 years
>>106634849They don't make them like they used to. Fucking Thems, man.
>>106634810Grim? Sovl.
Samsung? That's the one I got.
>>106634774Any excuse to keep your shit clean is good, stinky.
>>106634651ZanussiIt's the same as Electrolux, same components, same build quality, just more basic UI (which is actually a GOOD thing: you do not need an AI agent and smart app in a washing machine) for half the price.
>>106634849TIM APPLE WHY IS IT ROTATEDalso yes this is an “eastern europoor”bathroom, didn't see the above post.
>>106634932imagine bringing home a cubic meter sized explosive
>>106634986>Zanussi>use case for an AI agent and smart app in a washing machine?Checks out.
>>106634986>Zanussi>Electrolux in a trenchcoatNah thanks
>>106634714Bosch (which is the exact same thing as Siemens nowadays), is garbage ever since they moved their production to Poland.But you could buy a 20 year old Bosch, exchange the dampers and the bearing, and it would easy last the next 20 years.Over ten times longer than a current Bosch would.
>>106635040Why?Nothing wrong with Electrolux, probably the most reliable manufacturer after Miele.Zanussi is B-tier quality at an F-tier price.
>>106634651Buy whatever is the cheapest.IDK why people fall for this trap of they don't by the cheapest thing because they want something that lasts but then the more expensive one dies just as easy or even easierTop loading washers, top freezer fridges or just any of the cheaper/basic appliances I see are 20 years old.Anything that has deviated from the basic designs where replaced sooner.
>>106635446Washing machines experience a lot of abuse.They literally shake themselves apart.The cheapest garbage will break in a couple of years and then you have the expense and hassle of getting it replaced.
Don't you guys like the front load machines? I've never seen a top load for sale in my country.
>>106635641Small bathrooms I'm guessing, top load can be put in a corner. Also which country? They are commonplace in Nordick
>>106634651I buy basic amana units. The current one has lasted me quite some time and was only 400 dollars.
>>106635641Americans have been brainwashed to think front loaders are dangerous and anti-American.
>>106634651>he lives in a place where a minimum warranty of 2 years isn't mandated by lawamericunt moment
>>106635625>The cheapest garbage will break in a couple of years and then you have the expense and hassle of getting it replaced.You say that while literally every cheap appliance I've seen has ran for decades, including mine.It's like you didn't even read the post.Are people really just that ingrained to assume that cheap means unreliable?
>>106635641>>106635844Top loaders are cheaper, incredibly easy to repair yourself, and don't suffer from leakage/odor/mold issues like front-loaders often do. I've also noticed a lot of older people with bad backs like them because you don't have to bend over as much.
>>106635205>probably the most reliableHAHAHAHAHAHAHAT. Electrolux agent.
>>106634651Note that this is mostly relevant to the US: Speedqueen washers are by-and-away the most reliable, but also expensive as fuck, small, and I've heard their warranty/customer service is pretty shit. LG washers generally rank second in terms of reliability and are probably the best all-around choice. Whirlpool washers have by far the most parts availability/servicemen willing to work on them, but their quality is getting worse and worse, and for the past several years they've been plagued with serious control board problems. Samsung is terrible and should be avoided. To be honest, all washing machines are shit nowadays and quality is dropping across the board (even the Speedqueens).
>>106636056Should I get back to manual washingbtk show them?
>>106634651If you're American / Canadian then Speed Queen / Huebsch if you can afford them
>>106634651why does everything in eastern europe look old, dirty, and depressing? the sink i have in the cellar next to the boiler is cleaner than that. do your hands get dirtier after using that sad-looking soap?
>>106635844my european aunt who did thousands of loads of laundry in her life swears by top loaders and thinks front-loaders are retarded.
>>106634651The company that doesn't go all out for supporting fags and the hrc
>>106636749She's acwise woman. Front loaders take up more space for no reason.
>>106636558The /g/ answer is that you should learn to repair your washer (most repairs are quite simple and not terribly difficult to diagnose), and all of your other appliances, for that matter. So many people throw away appliances that could be fixed with a $1 door switch (or another cheap part) and replace them with a brand new piece of garbage that looks nice, but is far lower quality.
>>106634651Maytag/SpeedQueen/Electrlux are all good as long as you get an actual residential one. Yours looks like one of those amazon portable piles of junk made for a camper. Also top-load > front load
sink tells me everything i need to know
>>106634651Speed Queen
mitsubishi
hol up, euros actually put their washer and dryer in the fucking BATHROOM????
>>106634651What the fuck is that appliance?
>>106634733Based and Biblepilled...
>>106641071Yes, Euro's also put sinks in their bed rooms so if your thirsty or want a damp towel for your fore head you don't have to leave your room.
>>106634651IDK about best but I'm still using a 30 year old Candy, had to replace a relay at some point but it's still kicking
>>106641071Yes, Euro's also put sinks in their bed rooms so if your thirsty or want a damp towel for your fore skin you don't have to leave your room.
>>106634651Some guy repairing these things said LG makes them better.
>>106634651Just get a Samsung with the funny music.
>>106634651Miele, no contest, but they're not cheap
>>106634983People on this website are so contrarian that they'll be filthy just to spite people. I've seen it a couple of times on /vr/ with people posting photos of their nasty ass CRTs and controllers and refusing to clean them when others tell them how disgusting their shit is
>>106634774You should be scrubbing down your sink on a regular basis so it never gets that dingy and disgusting in the first place.>womanlyFeral women keep the filthiest dens.
>>106642082Want to see my soup stove?
>>106634651The state of your sink is fuckng nasty and you should feel bad about it
Everybody stop sink shaming OP.
>>106634774>That's the most womanly thing I ever heard ofWomen are actually way filthier than men, so keeping your shit clean is manlyIf you don't believe me ask an actual janitor which restroom are filthier between men's and women's
>>106642160The only jannies I know are the 4chan jannies and they legally can't enter the women's restroom.
>>106634651>weDid you ask your wifeysauce permission to post on g you faggot lmao
>>106642130Come on fuckers, It's not that bad.
>>106642195that's pretty bad
I had a nice kinda modern (non smart) Bosch that worked great but it did a barrel roll over the street when I moved cause of my brother being overly confident he could lift it out of the truck by himself and then it was dead. Replaced it with an older second hand AEG Lavamat and it's been fine, albeit more simple (which isn't necessarily bad). Bit limited in programming postponed start times.
>>106634774Also the whitest thing you ever heard, jamal.
>>106642195post toilet
>>106642195If that's like a "secondary sink" that you just scrub oily clothes in before putting them into the machine it's fine. The toothbrush tells me otherwise tho.How many months of not cleaning is that? I sometimes go three months without and my sink was never even close to being that filthy, it just gets a bit dusty around the edges.Also, post hands.
And post passport too so we know which country
>>106642511He's from Poland, translate the words on the washing machine.
>>106634849This one is from Ukraine, look at the shampoo.
>>106642195jestes jebanym brudasem i dobrze o tym wiesz
>>106634651I had a Whirlpool that went bust after 4 years due to the chipset burning out. Then I had a very cheap Indesit for 13 years that was rather loud and once it became too rusty I changed it for a Gorenje which is basically Chinese now it's HiSense. It's very fast, very quiet, rated for 7-8kgs, don't know how much it consumes yet. It's just a simple 300usd washer. It doesn't have a dryer I have a porch so I don't need that.
Midea is a good and cheap brand nowadays.
>>106641071It's used in smaller apartment housing; as a concession on effective use of available space.It typically is considered nasty and a last resort kind of thing.More common is to put the washer and dryer in the attic of a house. (Many European houses have full floor attics accessible via a full staircase that might as well be a third floor altogether. None of that plywood flimsy flooring and fold-up stairs.)Or to put them in a side-area of the pantry, often next to storage of cleaning agents and gear, and other non-consumables.
>>106642040Miele is damn near twice as expensive as Electrolux for the same build quality, and depending on your region they apparently have absolute shit customer service wrt on-site repairs.
>>106642195needs more soap
>>106642160This is true. If the mens' is out of service and you're forced to use the ladies' at any one point in life at a road-side stop -- then you'll understand.Seeing that changes a man for life ...
>>106642195>black spots everywhereYou're right, anon. It's not 'that bad' - it's actually worse.Those are mold.
>>106642107soup anon?
>>106634651i like my GE dryer and washer. auto-squirt liquid cleaning dont have to put caps of liquid in it.
>>106643055Your mother has an auto squirt feature.
>>106643084
>>106634651Before moving out my mother recommended me Maytag, she bought one since the 90's and that shit outlived every single electronic in her house. I don't doubt it will outlive me as well. Got myself one for about $200 usd and hasn't had a problem for the 4 years I have it.
>>106634651miele
>>106634687urinal.
>>106643045They banned all my networks from /pol/ again.
>>106641071Only poorfags or renbtoids. Normal houses have a dedicated laundry room. Still less disgusting than putting washing machines in your kitchen like bongs
>>106643982My commie flat doesn't have one and I own the place. What now?
>>106634651how do you break a washing machine mine has lasted 20 years now and I wash weekly.
>>106634651
>>106644412Fucking doors feel away. Plastic hinges!
>>106642944I've never seen a washing machine in an attic.Getting it up there alone sounds super annoying.It's usually in the basement.
>>106634651In Europe, Miele.In America, one of those made in USA tanks. In Asia, Electrolux. That's it really. Try not to buy Samsung, it's garbage. People like LG, it's just not that well made, like some planned obsolescence.
>>106642960I'm in Europe, my washing machine is made in Germany and I haven't had any problems with it in the 15 years since I bought it.If I can criticise anything, it weighs 93kg (200lbs) making it very difficult to move if you ever need to.
>>106644536Never saw "miele" in Poland in the wild.
>>106634651I also have an Electrolux top-loader like that I got after a bathroom renovation in 2023 where I couldn't fit a front-loader anymore. It works fine.For front loaders I've been quite happy with mid-range Siemens machines. Used them for years without issues.
>>106636707>why does everything in eastern europe look old, dirty, and depressing?That's how communism works.
Its not about the brand but where it was madeGermany/France/Western Europe - Would last forever Eastern Europe/Turkey - either breaks down after 2 years or lasts forever, depending whether the assembly line workers were sober on that day. Korea/China/SEA - dog shit
>>106646024In my experience appliances from china last 10 years or more.
>>106646056Fuck you China. Your piece of shit broke after one year and then you failed to repair it under warranty.
>>106646070Are you talking about a washing machine?
I just bought an Indesit front loader with inverter motor and knobs instead of buttons. It replaced a 20 years old Siemens that still worked but kept freezing during working, it was a matter of pushing again the start button but this way the wash could last forever if you forget or have other thing to do. Before it I had San Giorgio that lasted for another 20 years.I'm skeptical that this one will last 20 years but who knows, so far is more silent and faster.
You could actually fix old washing machines, but it's pointless trying to fix modern ones. You can open them up but there's really not much you can do apart from replacing the whole thing.
LGs are the best
>>106642160>>106642992I know this is true but I still have trouble understanding it in my head. Why are they like this.
>>106636056How is Speed Queen's service shit? They seem to have a good rep with people who afforded them, and they have trusted appliance repair places that are supposedly certified, which is nice if you have say, a home warranty from someplace like First American.I will agree with Whirlpool. They were the brand for our washer and dryer at our old place, and they were fine, but when I was on the sales floor I could tell they were getting worse build quality than the stuff that was for sale in the used appliances section of the store.>>106635892Yeah, I agree. I owned a Top loader, and it was nice, but I live with my autistic brother and he's literally unable to comprehend how to load clothes into the wash drum. Even I struggled with it a bit. When we moved into our townhome, they gave us brand new GE washer and dryer and we said fuck it and kept those after we had them inspected and serviced. The advantage of a side loader is that the drum is mounted horizontally. During the tumbling wash action and the subsequent spin cycle, gravity works to its advantage. As the drum rotates, the clothes are continuously lifted and then fall back to the bottom. This tumbling motion naturally helps to distribute the load more evenly before the high-speed spin begins, so when we load clothing, we can just dump them in and forget about it. I've also come to learn that Front-loaders utilize a suspension system more akin to that of a car. They employ shock absorbers and springs that are designed to absorb the vibrations and movements of the drum during the spin cycle. So the convenience factor alone made me decide to keep buying side loaders and I guess keep the door propped open and clean them often.
>>106646618LGs suck dick, I had mine of 10 years fail on me this summer due to the drain pump giving out
>>10664667310 years is great nowadays
Both my mini dryer and washer were cheap and they don't do the best of jobs. The dryer in particular is very slow and doesn't get the wrinkles out. But it is still better than I had before, which was nothing.
>>106642195Mine's infinitely worse. I am not posting it.
>>106634996Always crop the photo a little and it won't be rotated.
>>106646643Probably has something to do with men being allowed to be rancid and filthy basically whenever they want, whereas women experience a pressure from society to always present as prim and proper. The restroom is probably something of a last free haven where they can pig out. So that's what they do.
>>106646618>lust provoking image
>>106634651Hajdú
>>106646673>LGs suck dickI wish>I had mine of 10 years fail on me this summer that can happen if you didn't care for them properly but a summer is a good opportunity to get them in line and fix some of those issues.still, 10 years is pretty old already and you should probably start looking into replacing your LG with a newer model, maybe go for a 3 or 4 years old one so you get a headstart and also save some money.
>>106644536Why not get Miele in America
>>106635201have my current bosch for 6 years so far, it works great, but it tends to extend the cycle for some reason
>>106647660Bad parts / service tech availability outsided cities, and the hardware is nothing special compared to local competitors.

>>106648049some people would say it's just a matter of proper cleaning but in that case I'd advise you throw it out and get another one
>>106634702I only hope OP doesn't use that toothbrush for his teeth.
>>106648587his teeth look even worse, anon
MIELE novotronic from the 80s, that you can repair on your own if it breaks. Bosch washing machines from the same era are good too.Don't buy anything without knobsDon't buy any fancy display machines with useless features
Big bucket, tallow soap, and a washing board. Never buy cotton or synthetics except outer layers that barely need washing. Not for beddings either. Wool/linen/whatever actually good materials cost more but don't require washing all the time. Not even boxers, whereas cotton or petrochemicals stink in less than a day of wear.Insisting on big loud machines, basically this >>106648779. They didn't know about planned obsolescence in West Germany.But nothing is forever so staying machine dependent you'll eventually end up with some modern garbage you need to replace every five years.
>>106644536Miele is not what it used to be. Their newer generations are as enshittified with planned obsolescence as all the rest. Good thing is that to this day they still produce the old models with just two dial knobs without displays and digital electronics.
>>106642195clean that shit nigguh
>>106646024I have a beko (Turkish brand) washing machine and tumble dryer, they're both 16 years old and never had problems with either of them.

>>106648779kino
>>106643016That's not mold. Those are chips in the porcelain from where he cracked the skull of missing hookers.
>>106647660Because they cost $3000 and a Whirlpool costs $699 and it's still front loader garbage that will break.
>>106634651You want a front loading washer dryerDon't make the mistake of buying a top loading one, they suck at drying
Speed queen and Maytags commercial grade units.
>>106634687ToT
have a Simpson that i bought 6 years ago. before that was a Samsung that lasted 10 years. and before that was a Westinghouse with those big, heavy crank knobs that went 'krrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrk' and spin cycle sounded like a jet engine which the family has had since I was a little kid, so probably kept working for 30 odd years.
>>10665066130 is even retard
>>106635892top loaders are considered inferior to front loaders because they use more water and electricity, and the gentle tumble of a front loader is more effective at cleaning clothes than the top loader back and forward.
>>106634651I use this one. It's preinstalled in all bathrooms.
>>106634651Samsung. It plays music when it's finished.

front or top loader?USA

>>106634849My Zanussi broke after 8 years.
>>106634651>>106634849imagine living in a 3rd world shithole where you have so little room that you have to put your washing machine in your bathroom or kitchen instead of your basement or laundry room. I could fit a dozen washing machines and driers in my house and still have room left over.
>>106651065>third worlder thinks haier is an obscure brandwtf
>>106649829as I do not live in a 3rd world shithole I have no need to combine the washer and dryer into a single device. so top loader it is.
>>106650833lol this hasn't been true for 20 years. nearly every top loader is high efficiency now and uses little water by default (but has rolling coal option to wash comforters etc.). front loaders were made essentially useless, they are for short people. they should sell them in the same department as wheelchairs.
>>106651623>lol this hasn't been true for 20 years. nearly every top loader is high efficiency now and uses little water by default (but has rolling coal option to wash comforters etc.). front loaders were made essentially useless, they are for short people. they should sell them in the same department as wheelchairs.you are wrong retard
>>106651641mouth-breathing mongoloid needs a porthole so he can watch his underpants go round and round with his superior three thimbles of water. i should make a dishwasher with a window so retards can watch their plates get clean, i'd make a fortune.
>>106651623>nearly every top loader is high efficiency now and uses little water by defaultstill can't beat front-load efficiency.>front loaders were made essentially uselessA quick check on companies homepage shows that's not true. Company like Miele even stop producing top-load model. Just say that you're too poor to afford a front-load anon.
>>106651930>needs a porthole so he can watch his underpants go round and roundStill it's somehow entertaining for a short time to watch the washer operate. I can say it's comfy.
