If your place doesn't have any power cut problem then front loading is OK, otherwise go for top-loading one. For IFB front-loading ones, check here:-

It's good imo. When mine warranty was close to be over they called several times asking me if I want to extend the warranty and apply AMC. I ignored though. After purchase I had one problem, it was not a problem but I thought it was, and I asked for service and they send a service man very next day. One thing about this good machines, you will hardly need any service unless you are very unlucky

i have the same query as OP...so avoided making another thread...please suggest more. Are WhirlPool and samsung washing machines good??? currently i have a 12 yr old Videocon washing machine.....worked well till now except for recent problems as the motor has starting making a lot of noise....thanx in advance.

I have a Samsung, 2 yrs old and its very good. Have a 3 year old Samsung in Kolkata and a BPL in Tamluk which is still alive and kicking in its 18th year. From the experiences of forum members, it looks like a washing machine would seldom give trouble. So buy one from a reputed brand and it should be good to go.

does it needs a power plug

 

[Skud]

What are you talking about???

 

[bugsome]

Any body got opinions on LG Front loaders..? They use a technology called Direct Drive which attached the motor directly to the motor,claims to reduce the noise and vibration.

What Is the LG Direct Drive Motor?

 

[abhidev]

does it needs a power plug

it can't run on battery so it does need a power plug....

 

[Skud]

Lol..

Had mine delivered two days ago. Holds 10kg of washing and is as quiet as a church mouse! Used to swear by Zanussi but the sales rep at Currys managed to twist my arm. Glad he did actually. My wife's never been happier! Mmmm..not sure if that's a good sign or not!

Am in India my friend!

Panasonic only has Top Load model in India

would have preferred Front Load instead.
