Aldi Washing Machine looks to be same as Kogan "Series 9" washing machine. Details inside.

EDIT: I found the OEM, it's a Whirlpool machine. A promotional picture from alibaba is here. It's a Whirlpool H03, but no real info online about the model or past reviews. Mystery solved.

In need of a new washing machine, and wanted to weigh up the usual $1200 Bosch recommendation against these cheapies.
The manual is often a give away to the original OEM.

Kogan "Series 9" 9kg Front Load Washing Machine

The panel isn't shown, but it's in a similar place and style to the Stirling one. here's a comparison of the actual panel

I'm convinced they're the same product, you make up your own mind.

Notable differences:
* Different outside face of the door (but identical insides)
* Different control panel (although pretty close)

Reviews on Kogan are as you'd expect:
* Noisy
* Faulty machine
* Kogan customer service is awful
* One person mentions no hot water wash. Not important to me so I haven't verified

YMMV, but looks like a cheap budget front loader. If you can be one of the 2 people to get the aldi stock, at least you can return it. If you want to gamble with Kogan, they're doing click frenzy and you may be able to get a decent price on it (haven't bother to look up if they're 20% off stacks with the current sale price of $529 + shipping, or $469 for the 8kg).

    Probably all come out of the same factory in China.

    • yeah there are tons of factories in China that produce unnamed/unbranded goods.

  • EDIT: I found the OEM, it's a Whirlpool machine. A promotional picture from alibaba is here(sc01.alicdn.com). It's a Whirlpool H03, but no real info online about the model or past reviews. Mystery solved.

    If only other OPs can be like this, post question and solves it themselves - unlike the "accident = no insurance", "price dropped what are my rights"…

  • Thanks for the info OP my 15 year old speed queen just packed it in & need something to get me by for a few months, hopefully the one Aldi has will do the job.
