    Haier is a Chinese company that makes their own appliances but also owns Hotpoint and the GE Appliances brand. I don’t know much about their own brand, but both Hotpoint and GE have increased in quality and reliability since they got bought up in 2016. GE appliances in the lower-end are rebadged Hotpoints and are “ok” in quality and reliability. GEs from the mid-range up are pretty good. I hear few complaints.

    LG makes excellent washing machines and dryers and have a set on the lower-end that are suitable. Just make sure to get a washer with direct drive and auto load balancing. A direct drive has no belt (a common point of failure) and auto load balancing keeps the washer stable and helps prevent the drum from warping over time. Plus LG toppers (under the lid) are plastic so they don’t rust.

    Of course, if you’re getting front-loaders those last two bits won’t apply, but the direct drive things still will.

    You already do only one load at a time. Just because you’re doing 1/2 in the wash and 1/2 in the dryer simultaneously doesn’t change the math.

    In any case, I happen to sell appliances. If you can get your hands on one of the 2-in-1s with an inverter heat pump, they seem to be pretty popular and have good reviews. And the cost can be offset by the energy savings as they’re very energy efficient compared to a standard washer/dryer pair.

    I recommend the LG or GE model. Avoid Samsung.



  • Oh, you see, that’s not the same thing. Most gay men are absolutely fucking terrified of vaginas, for example. A total mystery that, for most of us, we have only ever encountered in a biology class. (On the other hand, we probably know more about them from that biology class and our lady friends than most unmarried straight men). However, even as a straight guy, you could admit that dicks are fun to play with, even if it’s just your own. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Ya see, as best, as I can figure, the boob thing for gay guys is that, it’s a novelty because we don’t have them (usually), they’re actually kind of neat and fun, and if you push them together, they look like a butt, which is something we actually do like.
