Bought the W/D set in January. After 3 months, love love love the washer. Like the dryer too. Had a minor problem with the drain hose having a small drip but with the warrantee, it was fixed in days at no charge to me. The steam cycle cleans smelly items better than chlorine bleach! I love the quick 15 min. cycle for sports uniforms, and do not have a problem with moisture and odor like other reviews I have read, because I leave the door ajar for 24hrs after the last load so it drys out. The only negative, a minor one, is the pod detergent I use sometimes gets caught in the door gasket fold, dissolves there, and does not get the clothes clean. If I throw the pod in before loading, that usually solves this problem. I love that the door hinge reverses, which I needed for my laundry area. It's my first front loader, so I thought I would never be able to add the elusive stray sock after the cycle begins, but the pause button allows me to unlock the door and throw it in provided the machine is not too full yet. Another feature I like is the ease of setting temp, spin speed, and soil level. If there is any feature I could change, I wish this washer had a light switch that stays on for longer than the 10 seconds it currently is on. It is in a dark area, so when that light goes out I can't see the clothes I am trying to unload.
Have had a few months now. Cleans well, love the settings, large capacity. Wish it was smart phone compatible as a reminder when load is done, or that a load still remains in washer would be nice- I tend to forget.
After much research (and over 100 loads of laundry later) I am so happy we chose this washer! We have 5 kids (15,6,5,3 & 1) plus my husband works outdoors in the logging & mechanic industries and I've yet to find something that this washer can't tackle! Stains all come out, all odors are gone! Even after he spent a day helping his friend clean out his cow barn (which the friend hadn't cleaned out all winter, GROSS!) his clothes came out perfect and there was zero odor left over! This thing holds so much too. It very easily washes my king sized blankets, or a load with numerous twin sized bedding sets. Not to mention the spin cycle this thing has. It is for real. My dryer is going to last so much longer now because it has so much less work to do to dry my laundry! This Electrolux is a serious work horse! For the first time ever, I can very easily wash ALL the laundry in our house daily. All of my laundry baskets get emptied and then I'm actually going around the house looking for more stuff to wash! Plus all the items that I used to have to hand wash, I can put right into my Electrolux washer with no worries. It's a enormous time saver, as most of my clothes are hand wash only items, and my two daughters own a lot of dresses that are covered in sequins or other delicate fabrics. Both the delicate and hand wash cycles are fabulous life savers for me too. I honestly thought that there was no way I'd ever use all of the different cycles and options that this washer offers. I never did on my old top load. But I actually DO use them all! I can not find one thing about this Electrolux washer that I don't absolutely love. I am beyond thrilled with our decision to purchase it and I'm always bragging about it to everyone. I know some people complain of odor or mildew, but this will never be an issue for us. We do not use normal detergent with our washer, we use an EcoWasher. (Look it up, it is AMAZING and the perfect combo with this Electrolux washer!)
Only had it for a couple of months, and it is the best washer I have ever used. Everything gets clean clean clean. Wish I could afford the dryer to go with it., but it is not really needed. My older dryer works great with this washer because it spins the water out of the clothes so well. My older dryer does not run as long as it used to. Win Win!!!
This set was just installed a couple of days ago and I have only run 3 loads. The first load through shocked me with its extremely quiet operation (can hear the water loading, but not much else), that was until the spin cycle. When this sucker was running at full spin the door made such a rattle, we were worried the door was going to go flying! We did have to have the door reversed from factory settings and I am not sure if this factors into this or not. We had the repair technician here today and he could not replicate the rattling... the other two loads I washed I reduced the spin cycle to keep this from happening again. I am hoping that all goes well and the 1st load was just a one-off. I would hate to think such an expensive machine, the top of the line, could cast that door through the roof someday! I am going to give it a 4 star for now and hope I don't regret this one. :)
