Two questions:

a. Both these have the same 4.5 star rating. Which one should I buy?
Haier 7.5kg Front Load Washing Machine HWF75AW3 - $409
Hisense 7.5kg Series 3 Front Load Washing Machine HWFS7514S - $375

b. Both have these missing parts. Is that going to be an issue?
4 x Transit bolts. Anti slip pads. 4 x Noise reduction pads.

Thanks!

  At this price point, be happy it lasts 2-3 years.

    Warranty is the main concern I would say too

  Well they're both made in the same city. Hisense has a big luxury shopping mall there. Hope this helps.

  Try to find the one with the best warranty. Not associated but Chiq has 3+2 year warranty if you register online.

  I'd buy the HiSense.

  Because my last two washing machines were from Haier. The first one I only got a reasonable life out of because I invoked the statutory warranty when something broke. The second wasn't a warranty repair, a mouse got into it and chewed a cable, and they wanted to charge me more than the cost of another whole new identical washing machine to supply and install that single part.

  I had a Haier clothes dryer which barely lasted 6 months of being used 1-2 times per week before it started making squeaking noises like a cat being tortured. I would never use their products again even if you paid me $409.

  4 x Transit bolts.

  My understanding was the bolts are there to stop the drum moving during transit and damaging the machine. Personally I wouldn't buy one without them.

    I wouldn't have an issue buying without transport bolts, so long as I did/supervised the move

  I also noticed that both start with "H"

    altomic on 27/08/2025 - 16:38

    Do all washing machine names start with a “H”?

    • 

      GordonD on 27/08/2025 - 19:02

      google "how do you say the letter h in Australia", and you find that it doesn't start with an h.

      So presumably the right way to pronounce those companies names are aier and isense.

        And when something breaks will it be a assle and eadache.

  My Haier has been good . 6 years old. Can’t complain.

  Missing transit bolts are not an issue. I’ve moved washing machines literally hundreds of times with out them. (I used to repair washing machines)
