Laundry Appliance

Jim had given me the go ahead to make decision for our laundry appliance. After some research, I decided to go for a continental front load washer and dryer. Earlier this week, we had been to Best Denki to take a look at the models. After numerous calls to several neighbourhood shops, I have decided to order from a shop near our house. Reasons why we chose this shop is; they are near to our house (hopefully they won't charge delivery), able to keep stock for us till our house is ready, price is quite reasonable, and the lady boss is nice.

I found some specs of the washer and dryer on the net.
