Shop around online, research the model you intend on buying before pulling the trigger.
Oh man I had to live 6 months with a front loader it sucked my will to live the damn thing just took forever. If I was single then no prob but Plague Jnr seems to have a pile of clothes to rival Elton John I'm forever washing that little buggers stuff.
and yeah those combo units are the worst. **** those things.
We brought a pretty dope top loader for our new joint about 6 months ago. Fisher and Paykel.
My LG combo unit is still going strong after around 12 years and a trip to Perth and back again.
Great to minimise footprint especially since I only use the dryer function when it is constantly raining
Can't speak to the quality of newer LG units, maybe they have lowered their standards since?
Side note - LG fridge of about the same age is also keeping stuff cold as per the norm. Also came out West with me
was researching combo units when we were looking at replacing our dryer. The reviews weren't good at all.Quote:

Bought a Bosch heat pump dryer about a year ago and it's brilliant. Pricey initially, but the energy consumption is about a quarter of a normal dryer so you make it back over time. Plus you don't walk into a sauna in your laundry every time you run it.
LG make seriously good stuff.
Can vouch for awesomeness of their TV's and Fridges.
So do you have the 906/907 or the 730 fridge Plague ?Quote:

Samsung Fridges should be avoided at all costs - some massive design issues with respect to wiring / water / heat which cannot be repaired.
at what year do these issues kick in? i've had one for 4 years now and she's applesQuote:

Problems with Fridges are usually in the first six months - once beyond that it's smooth sailing.Quote:

lol@renaissance man. I always wanted to be a Polymath like William Whewell and was well on my way until I got distracted by women and then it all pretty much went to shit and here I am .
I'm assuming Dunster is that old that he used to take his washing down to the river and beat it up against a rock.Quote:

No we had the women do it down by the river while they fetched the water.Quote:

Not sure what else you need tbh.
Just to clarify, the combo unit uses heat pump technology as well. Not a standard dryer with the sauna effects as you mentioned.Quote:

How the **** do the elderly and women go with that shit??
About 2 years ago, I worked Christmas and had 3 separate people come in with quite deep lacerations to their hand from trying to open DVDs.
2 of them were still security locked and they hacked at it, and one was trying to remove the plastic.
That's how they go!
Graffiti
Is there any reason why we as society tolerate this filth??
Can't go anywhere without seeing some toss pot have tagged a train a fence a door a sign or whatever
How about some amputation of limbs for the ****s caught doing it??
bleeding hearts would wail a flood on the Today show
Oh, that was the show I was looking forward to see for a long time!Quote:
