    From what I have heard from people I would steer clear of the F&P. But that's just me.

    I have a Samsung Front loader and it is fantastic. I have also heard the askos are great but they are expensive.

    I had an Electrolux 8kg front loader which kept breakign down so I ditched it after a few years. We have an acquasmart which I quite like, though it was expensoive. We've only had it about 9 months or so, but no issues so far. We also have a small euromaid front loader. it had to be replaced after breaking down the first time I used it! 2nd one seems to be fine so far..... My parents have an LG which they've had for years and never any issues.
    I would personally avoid ever buying electrolux or associated brands (simpson, whirlpool, etc) ever again due to the absolutely shocking service.

    I have a Samsung too. My first Samsung was fantastic and I had it just over 8 years before it died (plus it was second hand so it did really well). I loved it so much that I bought another Samsung last year (got a front loader).

    It seems miele don't do top loaders?? I'm a bit skeptical about front loaders. I asked a repairman about them & he said they cost more to repair because they're harder to work on. Also know too many people with bad experiences.

    And at $4500 there's no way!!

    Me too.

    I did a big thread on this a while back... I'll see if I can find it. I bought a Samsung front loader based on that. It's 10kg and I can do my whole bed sheets (king doona cover, queen sheets) in one load. Love it.

    ETA: Here they are.
