What's the recommended brand for a washing machine (front loading) and microwave oven?

Best value for money, and looking at $200 for the microwave, probably $700 for the washer. Not a hard budget though.

Love my Fisher and Paykel front loader. It's my first front loader and I'm really happy with the job it does. For a microwave, don't get sold on all the extra stuff if you're not going to use it. I use ours to defrost stuff, reheat meals and melt cheese so I got a basic Samsung. Go for decent wattage though.

Thanks:) you're right about the microwave... Will go with a cheap one then, since all we do is heat food, never used the fancy features.

I spent like $30 or $40 on a second hand Samsung microwave oven 3.5 years ago and I've been very happy with it, not entirely sure the pricier ones make much of a difference. Washing machines on the other hand, definitely go for quality. I was cheap and got a Beko one that's okay but it does sometimes unstick itself from the floor and get rather violent even when I haven't overloaded the thing.

Thanks Just_kitten, will check out cheap options for microwaves. For washing machines, Bosch seems popular here so I'll go with that, and avoid Beko ๐Ÿ˜…
