ok ok truce. We just replaced ours a few months back. It's a samsung, top load with digital inverter. 12kg rating, black colour. I like it black.

Our previous one was a front load (forgot the brand). The wife complained can only use special washing detergent for front load, so wanted a top load now.

BEST WASHING MACHINES
Today, we’ve rounded up for you the best washing machines in Singapore. These reliable front-load and top-load machines take your dirty laundry by the horns and make washing clothes a breeze!
Before we get to the actual washing machines, though, you may want to settle a question first. Should you get a front-loader or a top-loader?
Let’s have a quick run-down of the pros and cons of owning both types first, to help you with that. Afterwards, we can go through the list of the best washing machines in Singapore.

Front-Loaders vs. Top-Loaders
There’s no quick way to decide between these two because they have their upsides and downsides. In general, they end up pretty much level when set against each other.
Perhaps the easiest way to decide is to evaluate their pros and cons as listed below and decide which points matter most to you.
After that, you can just skip to the section of our list of the best washing machines in Singapore with the type you prefer — whether that’s front-loading or top-loading.
Front-Load Washing Machine
PROS
Believe it or not, front-load washing machines use less electricity compared to the top-load kind, according to Reviewed.com.
They consume 50% less electricity, thus making them more friendly to the environment.
They also leave clothes 10% drier compared to clothes washed in a top-load washing machine. This translates to (again) saving more energy on drying.
CONS
However, if you have owned or currently own a front-load washing machine, you know that bending down is kind of a taxing task… yet you have to do it in order to dump in and pull out the clothes from the washer.
For those with physical limitations, this may pose a problem. However, there are also models like the LGF2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer that have mitigated this problem with ergonomic design.
That being said, there are certain cons front-load machine users still can’t get away from. For example, front-load washing machines are really more costly compared to even their higher-end top-load counterparts.
Top-Load Washing Machine
PROS
Top-load washing machines are more prevalent in household use for a bevy or reasons.
For one, they clean clothes better and are more gentle on the fabric. The large capacity can accommodate a larger laundry load.
Moreover, top-load washing machines spin faster. Therefore, clothes require less drying time in them.
However, this also translates to our clothes getting tangled up in the machine. A couple of top-load washers on this list have already resolved this problem with new designs, though.
Furthermore, compared to front-load washing machines, top-loaders actually have less vibration on the floor. That’s good if noise and the integrity of your floors are a concern.
Lastly, there is less opportunity for mould to grow inside this type of machine.
CONS
Top-load washing machines, especially the more sophisticated kind, have a more significant potential for stacking up repair costs. A standard top-load washing machine, by comparison, does not pose that much of a threat for repairs because it often has fewer features.
Lastly, top-load washing machines go well only with specific detergent brands. So, you’ve got to know beforehand, which detergents are friendly enough to use in your top-load washing machine.
The Best Front-Loading Washing Machines in Singapore
So now you should have an idea of which type to go for. It’s time to go through our actual list of the best washing machines in Singapore!
As noted earlier, our list of the best washing machines in Singapore contains both top-load and front-load washers. Let’s start with the front-loaders, though.
1. LG F2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer
LG-F2721HTWV-21-12KG-Washer-Dryer-min.jpg

KEY FEATURES

21kg wash capacity / 12 kg dry capacity

PROSSaves water and energy
Best for families with babies
Washer and dryer in one
Troubleshoot using smartphone
The LGF2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer’s TWINWashTM should be in any list of the best front-load washing machines. What is there not to love with its TWINWashTM system?
You can now wash two separate loads simultaneously, so you save more time. The smaller wash load at the bottom is meant for your intimates, baby wear, and other delicate fabrics.
Now, you can finish your whole laundry load in just 49 minutes because of its TurboWashTM system. Thanks to its TrueSteamTM, your clothes also come out 99.9% allergen-free, so you don’t itch when you wear your washed clothes.
In addition, this beauty here is environment-friendly thanks to its EcoHybrid system, which allows you to select Eco Dry mode, no water for drying, or the Normal Dry mode to shorten the entire drying cycle. Either way, you reduce your energy costs.
One of the downsides of a front-load washing machine is having to bend over in order to load and unload clothes from the washer. This elegant product solves this problem with its ergonomic design of a higher top washer.
The result is less bending when putting in and taking out clothes from the washing machine. And in case you want to add an item in the middle of your wash, just press the “add” button and throw in your additional item.
Because the people at LG understand that we can do other tasks while waiting for our laundry to get done, it incorporated in this model the SmartThinQTM technology, which allows you to operate and monitor your laundry from just about anywhere using Wi-Fi.
Along with this is the Smart DiagnosisTM feature that helps you troubleshoot minor issues to prevent them from becoming bigger problems.
“Good size and energy efficient” is how one happy buyer describes this washing machine in Lazada. This is actually a 5-star product on that shopping site.
While the LGF2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer has a price that may be deemed exorbitant by some, others will say a washing machine that can wash clothes to the highest standards while being friendly to the environment is an invaluable investment. As for us, we think this one’s worth it!

Dirty clothes and bacteria are a thing of the past with the Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6. This dependable washer is definitely an indispensable appliance in your home.
Washing time can be cut down to just 49 minutes with its Active Foam System.
Say goodbye to those awful stains with its Active Speed Wash too, in which highly-concentrated foam penetrates deep into fabrics in order to get rid of unwanted stains. As a result, you get less undissolved detergent and cleaner clothes.
In addition to that, it also boasts StainMaster+, which further removes stains on clothes. It kicks in with the turn of a dial and combination of foam and ideal water temperature.
It takes pride in eliminating 99.99% of allergens and bacteria with the help of its BlueAg+, an ion, and UV light for sterilisation. This also means less colour fading and shrinking of clothes.
The Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6 operates on green energy for the win with its inverter technology that not only minimises noise but also saves energy.
Lastly, with the Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6, you can now wash your clothes in style with its sophisticated LED control panel.
A buyer of the Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6 in Lazada gives this product “a very big thumbs-up”. It’s another of the washing machines with very good user reviews all around.
The Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6 may be on the high end of the scale again for washing machines, but it’s hard to fault its quality.

Front-Loaders vs. Top-Loaders
There’s no quick way to decide between these two because they have their upsides and downsides. In general, they end up pretty much level when set against each other.
Perhaps the easiest way to decide is to evaluate their pros and cons as listed below and decide which points matter most to you.
After that, you can just skip to the section of our list of the best washing machines in Singapore with the type you prefer — whether that’s front-loading or top-loading.
Front-Load Washing Machine
PROS
Believe it or not, front-load washing machines use less electricity compared to the top-load kind, according to Reviewed.com.
They consume 50% less electricity, thus making them more friendly to the environment.
They also leave clothes 10% drier compared to clothes washed in a top-load washing machine. This translates to (again) saving more energy on drying.
CONS
However, if you have owned or currently own a front-load washing machine, you know that bending down is kind of a taxing task… yet you have to do it in order to dump in and pull out the clothes from the washer.
For those with physical limitations, this may pose a problem. However, there are also models like the LGF2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer that have mitigated this problem with ergonomic design.
That being said, there are certain cons front-load machine users still can’t get away from. For example, front-load washing machines are really more costly compared to even their higher-end top-load counterparts.
Top-Load Washing Machine
PROS
Top-load washing machines are more prevalent in household use for a bevy or reasons.
For one, they clean clothes better and are more gentle on the fabric. The large capacity can accommodate a larger laundry load.
Moreover, top-load washing machines spin faster. Therefore, clothes require less drying time in them.
However, this also translates to our clothes getting tangled up in the machine. A couple of top-load washers on this list have already resolved this problem with new designs, though.
Furthermore, compared to front-load washing machines, top-loaders actually have less vibration on the floor. That’s good if noise and the integrity of your floors are a concern.
Lastly, there is less opportunity for mould to grow inside this type of machine.
CONS
Top-load washing machines, especially the more sophisticated kind, have a more significant potential for stacking up repair costs. A standard top-load washing machine, by comparison, does not pose that much of a threat for repairs because it often has fewer features.
Lastly, top-load washing machines go well only with specific detergent brands. So, you’ve got to know beforehand, which detergents are friendly enough to use in your top-load washing machine.
The Best Front-Loading Washing Machines in Singapore
So now you should have an idea of which type to go for. It’s time to go through our actual list of the best washing machines in Singapore!
As noted earlier, our list of the best washing machines in Singapore contains both top-load and front-load washers. Let’s start with the front-loaders, though.
1. LG F2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer

The LGF2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer’s TWINWashTM should be in any list of the best front-load washing machines. What is there not to love with its TWINWashTM system?
You can now wash two separate loads simultaneously, so you save more time. The smaller wash load at the bottom is meant for your intimates, baby wear, and other delicate fabrics.
Now, you can finish your whole laundry load in just 49 minutes because of its TurboWashTM system. Thanks to its TrueSteamTM, your clothes also come out 99.9% allergen-free, so you don’t itch when you wear your washed clothes.
In addition, this beauty here is environment-friendly thanks to its EcoHybrid system, which allows you to select Eco Dry mode, no water for drying, or the Normal Dry mode to shorten the entire drying cycle. Either way, you reduce your energy costs.
One of the downsides of a front-load washing machine is having to bend over in order to load and unload clothes from the washer. This elegant product solves this problem with its ergonomic design of a higher top washer.
The result is less bending when putting in and taking out clothes from the washing machine. And in case you want to add an item in the middle of your wash, just press the “add” button and throw in your additional item.
Because the people at LG understand that we can do other tasks while waiting for our laundry to get done, it incorporated in this model the SmartThinQTM technology, which allows you to operate and monitor your laundry from just about anywhere using Wi-Fi.
Along with this is the Smart DiagnosisTM feature that helps you troubleshoot minor issues to prevent them from becoming bigger problems.
“Good size and energy efficient” is how one happy buyer describes this washing machine in Lazada. This is actually a 5-star product on that shopping site.
While the LGF2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer has a price that may be deemed exorbitant by some, others will say a washing machine that can wash clothes to the highest standards while being friendly to the environment is an invaluable investment. As for us, we think this one’s worth it!

It takes pride in eliminating 99.99% of allergens and bacteria with the help of its BlueAg+, an ion, and UV light for sterilisation. This also means less colour fading and shrinking of clothes.
The Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6 operates on green energy for the win with its inverter technology that not only minimises noise but also saves energy.
Lastly, with the Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6, you can now wash your clothes in style with its sophisticated LED control panel.

The Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6 may be on the high end of the scale again for washing machines, but it’s hard to fault its quality.

Is it? Western brands cleans better?
My home had an Electrolux front-loading washing machine that lasted from my schooldays to my working life, probably close to 20 years or so. Super heavy-duty and goes super loud, meaning it has a powerful motor. In today's money it will probably cost 2K and above....

Not sure if the brand still around though.

Front load for me all these years. Reason is simple. My dryer is placed just above the washing machine so top load is out.
Why do you need a dryer in Singapore's hot climate? Also, don't your clothes shrink after drying in a dryer?
actually I second the kim leng's take on dryer. Singapore is humid. If you have hired help sure no need, but if you don't, I would spring for it.

Having an electrical appliance for too long is not wise. Technology is constantly improving, leading to lower energy consumption for a given output. Hence, later models tend to save you money in this regard.

My almost 10 year old samsung washing machine is dying. It's not spinning the clothes dry enough and there's water leakage.

Need some advice from experienced users here.

1. Which is a good and reasonably priced brand washing machine?

2. My current machine is topload. Thinking of changing to a frontload machine. Is there any difference in terms of energy efficiency, cleaning efficacy and electrical⁄water savings?

3. Which brand of machine machine can last for more than 10 years? Just curious.

Any sound advice will be appreciated in advance.

Topload machines you put in the clothes from the top. Frontload machines you put in the clothes from the front (usually can take more weight than topload). :wink:

Front-Loaders vs. Top-Loaders
There’s no quick way to decide between these two because they have their upsides and downsides. In general, they end up pretty much level when set against each other.
Perhaps the easiest way to decide is to evaluate their pros and cons as listed below and decide which points matter most to you.
After that, you can just skip to the section of our list of the best washing machines in Singapore with the type you prefer — whether that’s front-loading or top-loading.
Front-Load Washing Machine
PROS
Believe it or not, front-load washing machines use less electricity compared to the top-load kind, according to Reviewed.com.
They consume 50% less electricity, thus making them more friendly to the environment.
They also leave clothes 10% drier compared to clothes washed in a top-load washing machine. This translates to (again) saving more energy on drying.
CONS
However, if you have owned or currently own a front-load washing machine, you know that bending down is kind of a taxing task… yet you have to do it in order to dump in and pull out the clothes from the washer.
For those with physical limitations, this may pose a problem. However, there are also models like the LGF2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer that have mitigated this problem with ergonomic design.
That being said, there are certain cons front-load machine users still can’t get away from. For example, front-load washing machines are really more costly compared to even their higher-end top-load counterparts.
Top-Load Washing Machine
PROS
Top-load washing machines are more prevalent in household use for a bevy or reasons.
For one, they clean clothes better and are more gentle on the fabric. The large capacity can accommodate a larger laundry load.
Moreover, top-load washing machines spin faster. Therefore, clothes require less drying time in them.
However, this also translates to our clothes getting tangled up in the machine. A couple of top-load washers on this list have already resolved this problem with new designs, though.
Furthermore, compared to front-load washing machines, top-loaders actually have less vibration on the floor. That’s good if noise and the integrity of your floors are a concern.
Lastly, there is less opportunity for mould to grow inside this type of machine.
CONS
Top-load washing machines, especially the more sophisticated kind, have a more significant potential for stacking up repair costs. A standard top-load washing machine, by comparison, does not pose that much of a threat for repairs because it often has fewer features.
Lastly, top-load washing machines go well only with specific detergent brands. So, you’ve got to know beforehand, which detergents are friendly enough to use in your top-load washing machine.
The Best Front-Loading Washing Machines in Singapore
So now you should have an idea of which type to go for. It’s time to go through our actual list of the best washing machines in Singapore!
As noted earlier, our list of the best washing machines in Singapore contains both top-load and front-load washers. Let’s start with the front-loaders, though.
1. LG F2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer

The LGF2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer’s TWINWashTM should be in any list of the best front-load washing machines. What is there not to love with its TWINWashTM system?
You can now wash two separate loads simultaneously, so you save more time. The smaller wash load at the bottom is meant for your intimates, baby wear, and other delicate fabrics.
Now, you can finish your whole laundry load in just 49 minutes because of its TurboWashTM system. Thanks to its TrueSteamTM, your clothes also come out 99.9% allergen-free, so you don’t itch when you wear your washed clothes.
In addition, this beauty here is environment-friendly thanks to its EcoHybrid system, which allows you to select Eco Dry mode, no water for drying, or the Normal Dry mode to shorten the entire drying cycle. Either way, you reduce your energy costs.
One of the downsides of a front-load washing machine is having to bend over in order to load and unload clothes from the washer. This elegant product solves this problem with its ergonomic design of a higher top washer.
The result is less bending when putting in and taking out clothes from the washing machine. And in case you want to add an item in the middle of your wash, just press the “add” button and throw in your additional item.
Because the people at LG understand that we can do other tasks while waiting for our laundry to get done, it incorporated in this model the SmartThinQTM technology, which allows you to operate and monitor your laundry from just about anywhere using Wi-Fi.
Along with this is the Smart DiagnosisTM feature that helps you troubleshoot minor issues to prevent them from becoming bigger problems.
“Good size and energy efficient” is how one happy buyer describes this washing machine in Lazada. This is actually a 5-star product on that shopping site.
While the LGF2721HTWV 21/12KG Washer Dryer has a price that may be deemed exorbitant by some, others will say a washing machine that can wash clothes to the highest standards while being friendly to the environment is an invaluable investment. As for us, we think this one’s worth it!

It takes pride in eliminating 99.99% of allergens and bacteria with the help of its BlueAg+, an ion, and UV light for sterilisation. This also means less colour fading and shrinking of clothes.
The Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6 operates on green energy for the win with its inverter technology that not only minimises noise but also saves energy.
Lastly, with the Panasonic 10KG Econavi NA-120VX6, you can now wash your clothes in style with its sophisticated LED control panel.
