FAQs

What is the best way to clean a washing machine?

The easiest way is to use soda crystals (available at most supermarkets) and white vinegar. First, place half the bag of soda crystals into the detergent drawer and run the machine on a hot cycle with nothing in the drum. Secondly, repeat the process but instead of baking soda, use white vinegar, simply by pouring the vinegar into the detergent drawer and running the machine on a hot cycle again.

Which washing machine is the best?

It often comes down to a matter of personal preference when choosing which brand, as well as choosing between a top or front loader. Samsung, Bosch, Defy and Whirlpool are still some of the most trusted manufacturers in South Africa.

When should I replace my washing machine?

Here are some signs your machine needs replacing: excessive leaking, the machine not retaining its balance or 'walks', mechanical noises when in use and a bad odour that won't go away. Even if your machine still seems to be working properly, it is advisable to start shopping around after you've had it for eight years, as repairs are very costly and the newer machines are more energy efficient and water conscious, so you can save on your monthly utility bills.

What brand of washing machine is the most reliable?

It would be fair to say that the major brands will always come out tops in terms of reliability. Which one you settle on ultimately will come down to your personal preference, but Samsung top loaders, Defy front loaders and LG are brands that are up at the top of the list.

Which is the cheapest washing machine?

The price will always be determined by a few factors such as brand, is it new or secondhand, how old the machine is, is it a front- or top-loader, condition of the machine, etc. The best solution is to go onto Gumtree and look at what they have on offer because they cover all major brands of washing machine, and the prices range from around R1,200.00 to over R7,000.00.
