If there's a south africa store near you, go look for OMO handwash, Sunlight handwash or Surf (south african surf only comes in handwash) and you will get guaranteed suds!

Could also be liquid fabric softener that's caused mold in the machine and its now starting to flake off. If you know how to dis assemble the machine, then do that and clean it. Otherwise fill with hot water, pour in a splash of white vinegar and a dishwasher tablet or powdered dish detergent...

stay away! We bought the icon washing ball from verimark (a highly respectable store chain that sells top quality home care products) and it was useless. The washing smelt strange afterwards and even though I sprayed stain remover on the marks, they didn't wash out. However, I have dryer balls...

Well I'm glad I'm getting good reviews. I imagined getting a few mouthfuls for getting rid of a whirlpool 27" with rear/top filter as a few members here really like them, as did I, but I couldn't pass up the great deal I got on the LG. As for dryers with steam, that would be a really nice...

Thank you, Darren. She really is a looker and performs as great as she looks (do you expect anything less from LG?). Will post more findings once I've had a chance to play around with all the cycles. Winter is creeping up on us so once its here in full swing I'll be testing it out on jerseys and...

1st load WE reversd the door swing beause it suits us better to have it higed on the left due to where in te kitchen it stands and we had to take the dor off to get it n the house because the door handle was that little bit too far ut to go throug the door ways. LOVE the glass door!

Hey all! So about just over a wek ago, i found thedryer that i'd been untig for for ages, the LG 10.2kg TD-V10115E. The guy that had it also buys and sels washers and dryers like i do and he was happy to let me trade the Whirlpool heavy duty in on the LG as the Whirlpool was only 3 years old...

Couldn't agree more, newwave! I love the drum size on my LG 7kg f/load. I can quite comfortably get 4 bath sheets, 7 hand towels and 2 face cloths in 1 load. And clothes wise, almost as much as my 13kg top loader. At the moment I've got a samsung 13kg top loader, Whirlpool heavy duty tumble...

We stopped using liquid softener about 4 years ago when w found out what it does to your machine, and in all honesty, I haven't noticed a difference in the softness of my clothes, and most of our clothes get line dried. I have noticed the clothes seem to dry quicker without softener. When my...

My grandparents had a Toshiba. It lasted for close to 40 years. They bought in when my mom was still in school and my gran only did washing once a week. So once a week for many years it did washing for 5 people. Later when my gran died, I'd go to my grandfather every saturday and do his washing...

medic rinse... Most half decent LG front loaders have it. My 4 year old 7kg LG front loader has it. I've used it was and was quite impressed. Not only do you get a WARM rinse, but the water level also increases, which is very rare these days. Enjoy your new toy, Darren, I'm a big LG fan. Is...

I'd go for an LG or bosch. I have a vented LG and it works like a bomb. Reliablility on bosch is also very good and worth what you pay for them

$600 in SA That's US dollars. But that R6000 price tag is still a lot of money here, because an entry level Defy dryer sells new for R1800/R2000 and you can get A new Kelvinator or Defy sensordry tumble dryer for about R3000. The Bosch's and Whirlpool heavy duty's start at about R4000. And at...

Those are pretty much the TOL Speed Queens available in South Africa. Just the control panels have different styling and here the dryers have a "buzzer volume" control too. I've bought and sold a pair and they are fantastic machines!

wow... thats the TOL speed queen dryer availabe here in South Africa and they cost R5000-R6000 deoending where yu buy it (thats about $500-$600). If i was paying that much for a dryer i would sure as hell clean the thing every so often, ESPECIALLY if i wanted to sell it! And secondly, how the...

Try cleaning out the dispenser and cutting out fabric softener. It might be mould flakes from softener but iron sounds more likely

Well in SA all the front loaders are european based. They all have cold fill and then heat the water to the selected temp. We don't get hot fill front loaders

Personally I wash all the bedding together. Duvet covers, fitted sheets and pillow cases all go in 1 load (luckily my 13kg samsung top loader is big enough for a double, queen and king size extra length set in 1 load) and I don't have tangle issues. I always line dry linen but when I have tumble...

Thanks Dex & Don :)
