LG 10.5 kg P105ASRAZ Semi-Automatic, 1350 RPM, ₹20,490

Need to wash for a big family and do not mind moving clothes by hand? The LG P105ASRAZ is a 10.5 kg semi-automatic twin-tub with LG's Roller Jet Pulsator, a 1350 RPM spin with Wind Jet Dry, and low listed energy and water use. It was ₹20,490 on amazon.in when we checked (MRP ₹24,490), with 4.3★ from 175 ratings, an Amazon's Choice badge and 100+ bought in the past month. It ranks #10 in our Best Washing Machines Under ₹25,000 list with an overall score of 7.0/10.

WHO IT'S FOR

Joint families of five or more, homes with irregular water supply where you fill by tap or bucket, and anyone who wants maximum load size and fast drying rather than a press-and-forget wash. It is the only semi-automatic machine in this list.

CAPACITY

10.5 kg wash tub and an 8 kg spin tub, the largest wash capacity in this list. Large loads of bedsheets and towels fit in one go. Score: 10.0/10.

WASH PROGRAMS

3 programs, Gentle, Normal and Strong, plus a Soak function (the listing variously says 3, 3+1 and 4). You set the wash, soak and spin times with knobs: soak + wash up to 40 minutes, spin up to 5 minutes. Score: 5.0/10.

ENERGY AND WATER

BEE 5-star, listed at 0.0084 kWh/kg/cycle and 16.3 L/kg/cycle. That is close to the inverter top loaders on energy, though you control the water level yourself. Score: 8.5/10.

SPIN SPEED AND DRYING

1350 RPM, the fastest spin in this list, plus Wind Jet Dry, which blows air through the spin tub. Clothes come out much drier than from any top loader here. Score: 9.5/10.

MOTOR

A standard motor with no inverter, covered for 5 years. Score: 5.5/10.

DRUM AND TUB

Plastic tub and body with a rust-free plastic base. The Roller Jet Pulsator uses a big central pulsator with smaller rollers to scrub clothes and remove dust and mites. A collar scrubber helps with cuffs and collars. Score: 5.5/10.

NOISE AND VIBRATION

No dB figure is listed. Twin-tubs with standard motors tend to be louder than inverter machines, especially during the fast spin. Score: 5.5/10.

FEATURES

• •Rat Away material in the base, drain hose and back cover, a lint collector/smart filter, Wind Jet Dry, a buzzer, a wash and spin window and wheels. You move clothes from the wash tub to the spin tub yourself. Score: 6.0/10.

WARRANTY

2 years comprehensive and 5 years on the motor, shorter motor cover than the fully automatic machines here. Score: 6.5/10.

THINGS TO CHECK BEFORE BUYING

It is a twin-tub: you fill water, move wet clothes between tubs and drain manually. It is wide: 90.5 cm wide, 54.5 cm deep and 102.5 cm tall, so measure your space. The box has an inlet hose, drain hose, snap ring and manual.

HOW IT COMPARES AT THIS PRICE

For ₹500 more, the Samsung WA80F08S2LTL is a fully automatic 8 kg inverter machine with Wi-Fi, but holds less and spins much slower. The IFB TL801MG1 (₹19,490) is fully automatic with a 4-year warranty for ₹1,000 less.

VALUE FOR MONEY

Good value if you need the capacity and fast drying, but ₹20,490 is high for a twin-tub when fully automatic 8 kg machines cost about the same: 7.5/10.

VERDICT

The LG P105ASRAZ is the big-family workhorse in this list. Choose it for capacity, quick drying and low running costs. If you want to press start and walk away, any fully automatic machine above it is a better fit.
