Please Recommend Me a Decent Front Loader Washing Machine for Cheap

jaygriz on 02/09/2019 - 06:24

Hi All,

I am a single guy who would like to upgrade from my trusty top loader to a front loader. My wardrobe is nicer than it used to be so I have concerns the top loader is a bit rough on my clothes.

Can anyone recommend a cheap front loader for me ?

Thanks !

    My in-laws rate Beko.
    They run a country motel and all their linen goes through a pair of Beko machines.

    Thise machines are doing mutiple loads per day and have been doing so for 5 years.

      Thanks for your reply!
      That kogan one looks great, if nothing comes on sale in the meantime (there is a wait time) I'll likely order it.

    Personal experience, highly rate the LG direct drive washing machines, no belt, less chance that something will go wrong (also, belts are rubber, being single means you'll use it less than a family of 4, so rubber is not your friend)

      Rubbers are definitely your friend if you're single and want to avoid turning into a family of 4.

    I'm very pro top loader and against front loaders.

    My sister influenced my Mum to get a front loader and she hates it. I even think my sister hates her front loader but is too stubborn to admit it.

    I have an LG 9.5KG top loader (you probably wwouldn't need that size, but it's good to wash blankets too) and never had an issue with the machine.

    So I would recommend top loader and an LG

      Hi, thabka for your comment. Currently running a whirlpool (made in USA) top loader. You're right they are great for their capacity and seen less fragile/issues. But I'm looking to upgrade because I think front loaders are more gentle on clothes. :)

        I was kids clothes on and my clothes every few days. Never had any damages clothes, have had the machine for 10 years now

    This washing machine is pretty decent and good price when on sale. It comes up every couple months. My mum, brother and myself have one each. Spin cycle is a little loud but you get over it.
