Looking for reviews here on washing machines as I am looking for a replacement with the latest washing functions.. Have been doing some research on brands and models and wish to share and get others' opinions.. The Japanese and Korean brands seem to have made some really good advances in technology. Their models seems to be loaded with the latest in technology and functions like hand wash, anti wrinkle, steam, and they look really good too. I could afford one of those expensive German ones if I want, but after some consideration, I really doubt any machine could really last 20 years as claimed for example, by Miele. Mechanic parts and motors will start to wear out starting from 5 years onwards, regardless of brand or build. But for a Miele you have to pay 8 to 10 times the cost of a good Asian brand which from experience last at least 8 to 10 years.I would not mind to get a replacement after 8 years and get one with the latest technologies and functions than to live with an old one that cost a few bombs. Ya, don't think it is something that I would want to make a big investment on. Maybe another German or European brand like Bosch or Electrolux who seem to be priced like the Asian brands. Probably rather spend on a curved UHD big screen TV - no moving parts and more likely to last more than 20 years... haha Please share your experience and advice.
