We have an LG and its really good. I know many people hate LG but I have an LG washer, dryer and dishwasher and they're all brilliant. Otherwise a whirlpool

My moms aunt has had hers for about 10 yrs and its still going strong. I think hers is a 9 or 10kg but it has a decent capacity. Here in SA we get an 8.2kg, 10kg, 13kg 15kg (think the 15 has been discontinued) and the new 16kg has just come in. I had the 8.2kg for about 2 yrs. It was good and...

its fixed! The LG is fixed! It went in monday morning and came back friday afternoon. It needed a new element. Get this - the people I bought it from had dried lace curtains in it and the expanding wire that you use to hang them with, had gone through the back of the drum, wound itself around...

I use a powder called X-pert. It comes from New Zealand but if we can get it in South Africa I'm sure you'll find it. I love it because its the 1st powder I've found that really works in cold water. And its concentrated so 2kg lasts us 2 months and its quite cheap here in SA. It has a lovely...

I love the styling on LG appliances. They always so modern and fresh. And yes their black appliances are very nice! I've never liked the idea of black appliances but once I saw the LGs I changed my mind. And as I said, I'm sending it in tomorrow so fingers croSsed I'll get it back friday or...

Hey guys! Well, what a month. First i found the LG DD washing macihne at a give away price and then on friday i picked up this baby at a give away price as well. the owner said it was "in working order" but yesterday when i out a load in, i found out that it doent get hot :/ but nevertheless...

Well I'm very happy that all top loaders in SA have a water level/load size selector. Very handy. Note that these aren't H-axis top loaders, but pulsator top loaders and heavy duty agitator top loaders. AEG is the only company that has H-axis top loaders in SA but they're tiny and over priced so...

@paul A year ago I had an LG 8.5kg washer/dryer that I sold and on that 1 I could select intensive and the full 1200 rpm spin and it took 45 mins on 40 degrees. This 7kg I can put it on 40 degrees and 1200 apin and it takes 36 mins. I can't select any options on quick 30. But as I said, bulky...

@dyson2drums I love LG machines. I think they're awesome. I love the 9kg steam model but my dream machine is the 11kg steam washer. I've seen 1 in the flesh but they just really expensive. So for now the 7kg LG and the 13kg samsung are perfect for now. I've washed 22 high school rugby jerseys...

I sometimes have that on my samsung top loader. So I just manually set the water level

detecting Yip you guessed it. On cotton and synthetic is does 3 quick spins to weigh the load. Quite handy actually.

... panel. and no, it doesnt tak that long to spin. it was rinsing 1 of the loads of l of the bedding loads

hey all! so after months of searching, i eventually found our 2nd machine. an LG WD-12397TD 7kg DD front loader. i wanted a 7kg front loader but couldnt find a new-ish 1 at a decent price. and then this came along. i grabbed it immediately! had it for 3 weeks and its brilliant. now with it...

filters etc I like the rear top mounted filter in my whirlpool. Think its quite clever. I always clean the filters after each load and we don't have a vent pipe on the whirlpool (it just stands in the kitchen and does its thing) but the SQ came with a vent pipe and I'll definitely use it. And...

energy saving Yip it does have the dot for energy saving. Thankx for the tip I'll try it on wednesday when I wash again and report back. I've been starting it at more dry with regular heat. On the whirlpool I dry everything on delicate. Will try it on the SQ

dryness Well we've had the whirlpool for about 2 yrs now (bought it from aunt and uncle when they emigrated and it replaced the 5kg KIC) and we've never had issues. It dries perfectly and quickly. I've never needed more than 40/45 mins per load. Obviously towels and jeans take longer but I...
