New energy star ratings have come into effect. I know this because I was shopping for a new washing machine and fridge recently and a lot of the newer ones had e.g. 2 star ratings with a small note saying "equivalent to 5 stars under old rating".
Not sure if there is a clear comparison of old vs. new anywhere, I had a quick look on www.energyrating.gov.au but couldnt find one.

The energy ratings for dryers changed a few years ago. Fridges changed late last year. I am not sure about washing machines, however, as www.energyrating.gov.au have the old rating alongside the new rating for fridges, only, I'd say it was just fridges. I might be wrong.

Mostpeople don't find that sort of thing too tough. Wander over to Whirlpool and have a look if google defeats you.
I assume that was a genuine question, not simply a troll, as you're supposedly against that sort of thing.

Bought a Bosch WAE20261AU from BingLee I think sometime in September. Cost me $800 with like 4-5 years of warranty.
This comes with a dryer too! I should have waited.
Edit: A pretty poor energy rating though. I think my Bosch has about 4-5 stars out of 6.
