[Review]
As mentioned in my previous blog post, I installed an automated laundry system from Steigen. I promised to write a detailed post on the system as most of my friends were rather interested in it.
Just to recap, some reasons to why I chose an automated laundry system.
- The manual pulley system provided by HDB was cumbersome and troublesome to use.
- We did not have the space to install a dryer.
Some other reasons are:
- In the long run, we’ll save more money than using a dryer. An electric dryer can be costly as the energy consumption can be extremely high. Also, with Singapore’s climate, save for a few months during the monsoon season, we usually have hot temperatures that is sufficient enough to dry our clothes in good time.
- It’s less tiring to use. The manual system requires much effort. You’ll need to pull, release the cord in certain angles. Heck, with a newborn now, I don’t even have time for myself these days. To have to deal with the hassle of the pulley and cord system, would definitely make me lose my patience.
- With the automated system, all I have to do is press a button. Extremely convenient with the least effort, time, money and steps needed. I love the remote controlled system. Less effort indeed!
- The system also has a safety mechanism where it lowers at a steady speed. If it encounters an obstruction, the system will halt immediately. Aside from that, the material is made out of strong aluminium which can withstand heavy weight.
- I love that the poles are retractable, I can lengthen and shorten the poles according to my needs e.g. When I dry bedsheets, I lengthen the poles. For lesser laundry, I can shorten the poles and use less space!
- In-built LED lighting. Instead of installing a light, I utilised my existing lighting point for the system.
While there are other automated laundry systems with other features such as UV lights and/or fans, I found it unnecessary.
We took some pictures during the installation which was a breeze.
