yan01 29 Report post Posted May 15, 2014 kuche all working good!! am using washer, dryer n oven from kuche.the washer & dryer are those very basic kind. each have those pre-set programmes for different types of clothes, which i don't really know how to use and what they can do .... after trying out afew programme i'm sticking to washer: standard 30 oC & dryer: 90 mins (for thick material like jeans) or 60 mins (eg normal thin t-shirts).i thot my first oven usage is to bake some cakes ... but no! hahaha my first attempt with the oven is to bake chicken drumstick! the feedback for the chicken is good, the meat is tender and the skin is crispy bro yan, kuche all working well? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yan01 29 Report post Posted May 15, 2014 there is no waiting time actually! maybe cause nowadays the water piping very shortthe very first time we use the storage heater ... we let it on for ~20 mins before we start using.then there was once i tried going to bath immediately i switch on, thinking its ok to rinse some cold water first since weather is so hot. but surprisingly, i have hot water to use almost immediately, like withing 30 sec kind! so subsequently i didn't wait anymore ..... another incident, hub already switched on the heater and bathed in the morning. then in the afternoon he only wanted a quick rinse of water so he didn't switch on the heater, but still can enjoy the remaining stored hot water from morning. but we have not tried using both toilet to shower at the same time yet......May I know how long is the waiting time for the water to heat up using storage heater?

Ks Toh 74 Report post Posted May 16, 2014 MinnieltDepends on many factors. Bigger tank can keep more hot water as hot water is always drawn from the top. Also depends on the average temperature of the remaining water. Obviously if there is more hot water remaining, then it last longer. It's like a thermos flask. Assuming half a tank of water left, you will still get hot water after 12 hours but the water is more "warm" than "hot". 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
