Our super old top loader Simpson washing machine finally carked it.
I think it was under 5kg barely 4kg.
I'm aware of the NSW government washing machine exchange program I'm just waiting on the low income card claim to finalise in the next few weeks but on the off chance it doesn't get through or they run out I'm looking for alternatives and backups.
Location Sydney NSW.
8kg Washing Machine Can Be Top or Front Loader
Yes, it can.
These are more like 60kg. You can get models that do more than just wash clothes.
I wouldn't mind a Model to wash me 😜
They're not available locally, you'll have to import one yourself.
I will start looking
Thanks JIMBO
@snappy1234: Choose wisely, once it's in the country local laws apply. If you get a temperamental refurb and it has a meltdown it could cost you your house.
@JIMB0: Happened to my ( ex) bro in law
( after he bailed on my crazy sis)
He got a subcontinent model that broke down the day warranty ended.
;)
Budget?
Honestly just looking for the cheapest 8kg to 10kg washing machine.
I guess trying to stay below $700
Cheapest 10kg machine would be from Aldi https://www.aldi.com.au/product/stirling-10kg-front-load-was…
Currently for sale. I believe Aldi has a 3 year warranty. No reviews on this model.
Beko have a 8.kg machine for $550 including delivery https://www.appliancesonline.com.au/product/beko-85kg-front-…
reviews aren't great. Made in China unlike the rest of Beko which is usually Turkey but Beko has a 5 year warranty. You may need to use the warranty from the reviews.
There's always a risk when buying a cheaper washing machine. Personally if it was me and I had a budget of $700, I'll pick one up from Aldi.
Thanks I need delivery so I might use that second link as a reference point.
Not sure how else I could get the ALDI one delivered maybe airtasker or something to hire someone to pick it up and deliver it.
Some good value ones in the Best Value For Money section.
Appreciate it big time thank you.
This was a huge help.
Is there a question you want us to answer or did you want us to just scold you? This is ozbargain so we will scold you regardless but what is the question?
To be fair, they did post it in the "Find Me A Bargain" section of the Forum, but I agree it should've been more obvious in the post itself.
Just looking for any washing machine deals between 8kg to 10kg sorry it wasn't more obvious.
Can be front or top loader.
Bonus if they can recycle my old busted top loader washing machine.
The NSW Government Washing Machine Exchange Program is over for now so either I wait until they do another one whenever that is or find one myself now.
I deserve all the scolding I will gett for not being specific.
Thanks for the status update as to what you're currently doing with your life.
