I want to buy a Fully Automatic Washing Machine and a Dishwasher.
I have a family of 5. So would 8 Kg fully automatic front load washing machine be fine?
Front load or Top load?
I don't have much knowledge about these appliances. The machines should do most of the work and there should be minimum human effort.
Please provide your suggestions.
I don't have a budget but don't wanna overspend.
Would appreciate value for money model recommendations.

I have an IFB front load that I got 7-8 years ago. No complaints except that it goes a little crazy when I use Quick 30 that gives a 30 minutes wash, could be some issue with PCB.

I would suggest you to go for LG. 8 KG should be enough, but really depends how often you use the machine. Dish washers don't really do a good job. I would suggest against it.

Don't get top load please. If going for fully automatic go with front loading if budget permits and you can't go wrong with IFB

I am confused between IFB and LG. Both are costing nearly same. 😅

I am using a Siemens fully automatic washing machine for the past 7 years without any problems...
Things to look out for

1) It should have a inbuilt heater. (temperature controlled hot water washing feature). Particularly helpful in the current scenario with all infections and viruses floating around.
2) Front load will always give a better wash. Front load mimics the way humans wash their clothes and also consumes less water.
3) If you do not intend to buy a clothes dryer, look for higher RPM washing machine. The higher the RPM, the drier the clothes will be.
4) Once you shortlist your brand and model numbers, head to the respective website, download the user manual and make sure it has the features
you are comfortable with.
5) Larger capacity washing machines, does not necessarily mean the loading door will be big. Some bigger machines have quite a small loading door which makes it difficult to put in curtains and bedsheets....
6) Confirm the washing machine has a quick wash function....

You can either go for IFB VX neptune or have Bosch product. Only thing you need to watch out is, you can't keep aluminum utensils in the dishwasher. Other than that, there is a learning curve when you start using dishwasher like where to put which utensils. Upside of this is you no longer have to be worried that you will be eating leftover of dish soap.

Can't find any Siemens one under budget.

The only reason I am suggesting against IFB is the service. If the product works perfectly, that's amazing. The moment you have to deal with the support team, you're in for a ride. Possibilities of getting a better experience is higher with LG.

And please think twice and do your research properly before investing in a dishwasher. This is an excerpt:

@Samuel Thanks for your insights.
Exchanging my semi-automatic LG machine for LG automatic one would get me better exchange rate than IFB right?

Using LG front load for 9+yrs and Bosch dishwasher for 2+yrs.
For front washing machine leveled floor is a must else lot of wear n tear.
For dishwasher each family need to rinse their own dish and put it in dishwasher to see the real benefit.
Aluminum dish can also be done in dw but they ll lose the shine.
