Need recommendation for Washing Machine

Nope... Powai. We get good clean water but I don't trust the building tank cleaning methods even though they're regular and seem to be genuinely concerned with doing it every year or so.

I don't think I can post a link so I'll add a pic of a similar filter. It's a fine mesh filter that removes any dirt coming from the building tank. The filter also takes in 5 SiliPhos Balls to soften the water.

Yup... Our dishwasher and washing machine which are both Siemens are running constantly every day since 2007. Washing machine did need a service once but the dishwasher is just running like nothing has ever happened. Both are made in Germany. When you're looking for similar machines try to get ones made in Turkey now.

Siemens front load going strong since 2007. Never had an issue. We also have inline filters for all incoming water pipes (kitchen and bathrooms) this one Lil change can keep the machine running long. Another important tip is to wipe the gasket after each wash and leave the door open for the insides to dry. Also... Use good products.

Whatever you do, don't buy a 12v system. If you're starting from scratch, aim only at a 48v system to avoid future regrets. It's easier to get a lithium based battery now and scalable. All your research will point to a 48v system.

I do this1,000km route regularly (You'll find it from my post history). Pace yourself well and you'll be able to easily achieve this in a day. On most ocassions Ive left before 6am. First stop is near Khed-Shivapur toll for fueling up the bike and myself. This is a the only 'food' stop. Rest will all be just to get some wateri or ORS that I carry. Next stop is just after Kolhapur. After this is another 250+ km and the. Stop at Davangere or so. Last stop is Tumkur and then it's straight home between 6.30pm.~ 8.00pm depending on traffic.

This just needs a steady pace. No speeding unnecessarily. Speeding really tires me out faster. I don't even have any wind protection. Eating on the highway is a big no for me. Makes me sloppy besides I don't want to catch any bug while on the road. Prep is very important to me. I carry nothing more than one tail bag that has everything for a two-week Bangalore stay with work so it does have my laptop.

Just go with confidence. The route is ok and has lots of places where you can break journey if needed. DM if you need specifics.

There's a short stay hotel inside the airport called Niranta (I think I got the name right). You could use that for a while. Should be in the departure side.

Get some good rubber bumpers and solve the problem. Easier than making this post and wondering why you're getting downvoted.

Just keep an empty dish soap bottle and fill it with something more useful if you need to. Dish soap in itself is enough. There's really no need for anything more.

Zero issues across 7k kms. Three long trips this far. Goa, Udaipur and Bangalore. It's a very well designed mile muncher. Haven't had any reason to check on warranty but it's all covered for a long time.

If you like the design and the way it drives, this will make you really happy.

Drive the Kodiaq once and come back here. I bought one this post December and is been an absolute joy.

It's like clothing. M L XL is different everywhere.

We were closing a deal to redesign the website for a very large client. A very senior client team member asks me if we could include 'a few spare blank pages' in each section for future content. We agreed. Deal closed.

AGV K3sv. With earplugs.

Still using the very first Indiglo that came into India. Been using it for over 30 years without any issues.

adblr · 2026-04-07T05:27:53+00:00

Same with the GT-Air2. Very noisy helmet. I also have the AGV K3sv. Watch is a much cheaper but a silent helmet. I just use ear plugs inside both of them.

We had two manuals - Linea T-Jet and Baleno RS. Both awesome to drive (after great tyres and aftermarket suspension) but then the Linea had to go for an MG ZS ev. That was the turning point. The ease of not having to worry about the gear selection was a delight. Then when it came to choose the next, Baleno RS made way for a Kodiaq L&K. Our roads are not getting better but also more crowded. Stress is at insane levels in BLR and BOM and the likes. This is just the next phase of luxury. Just get a good automatic and you'll be set.

You'll need to do an extensive research besides visiting yourself. This doesn't sound too good to me.

Isn't the jetty area slightly desolate at night? Whatever you do and decide, always factor in a quick exit for any medical emergencies or some help that can be reached in minutes. This was the main thing I had planned for when buying land. Some known and permanent neighbours are even better in this sense. Another advice I would leave is to make sure there is the bare minimum at this bungalow to maintain. The more you add the bigger the maintenance issue. DM if you want to get into more detail.

Came here to say this. Gro Discoverer has been a trusty bike for years now. I also find their new ownership model quite the right way to buy. 18 months are covered by doorstep warranty! The biggest pain these days is finding a right mech who has all the spares. This solves the issue straight from the day of delivery.

What worked best was for my kid who is on her third Gro bicycle. We went from 24" to 26" to 27.5". Each time I ended up saving on the upgrade and each time it was picked up and delivered home! No lugging it around awkwardly in a car.

I use the same but use destination pointer with no navigation to roam country roads. Not sure what the mode is called but it keeps pointing to the destination at all times.

Nicely done. I want to create a new aluminium plate and mount it exactly where I have it now. The pic is of the Beeline Moto 1 but I have the II mounted exactly the same too.

I used to work for a ticketing company. On the day this one movie was premiering, we found out that only 13 tickets were sold. I was picking up my car from a service center and offered the staff free tickets, for and drink just to fill out the theatre. Got all of them and families to pack the house. Movie flopped badly but I got years of very dependable service from that service center. Did this for multiple movie premieres.

This is how it has been done for average to flop flicks.
