TYM 0 Report post Posted March 19, 2008 Hi GraCie,I m currently using Lg Tromm WD14331AD washer/dryer. On average, it'll take plus or minus 1.5hrs for a wash-rinse-spin cycle depending on the load size & water temperature. If u r to include the drying cycle, then tat'll take abt 4-5hrs again depending on load size ba. And with tat amount of time taken, the load comes out almost 100% dry & the wm super hot. And of course, i m talking abt fully automatic operation. Wah 1.5hrs is very long. We using ariston front load, there is a 30min wash cycle available. We use it for washing of normal everyday clothes we wear at home. Still a number of wash modes/cycles not yet try out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still a number of wash modes/cycles not yet try out.Lg Tromm oso has a quick 30min cycle but didn't try it out. Tink tis cycle is more suitable for washing new clothes whereby jus need a quick rinse. Most of the wm in the market come with quick wash feature too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

piggersorous 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2008 Really thanks all for the knowledge u all given me.. Hmm.. seems like there are pros and cons.. Hubby juz came up with an idea.Buy a cheap topload and maybe check out a dryer price..then buy separately.. so as in case which one spoil, oni need to buy one to replace.. anyway, brandt is quite ex rite?? any gd brands that u all think is gd and not so ex de.. becuz we got budget constraint u see..any recommendations?? and anywhere u all know got a lot of dryers to see and compare prices one??thanks alot!Brandt topload ranges from 880 to 1+K... prices not from the big electrical stores..

teodami 0 Report post Posted March 21, 2008 my htb love a frontloadbut eventually we got a topload. Topload wash faster, can stop in the middle of washing. Front load takes almost twice the time to wash. He also worry that next time pregnant, if he not around or what and have to wash clothes,still must bend up and down Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
