Wash time is a little slow

very good washer takes a bit longer to wash a load compared to a top loader, they come out much dryer with the new front loader though.
We have a meter on our water usage, we literally dropped almost 80 gallons of water a day, yes a day by going from an old top loader to this one.

Great washer!!

I bought this washer along with the matching dryer. It does a great job of washing my clothes and is easy to use. It is pretty quiet except on high spins. Nothing real loud but enough noise to know its spinning. That being said I would purchase again.

Had continuing balance issues. Had to constantly rebalance the load to get it to finish a cycle.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

So many possibilities!
on March 4, 2016

The wash load possibilities range from a few socks to the bulkiest mattress pads with many settings for fabric types/density and special cleaning concerns. Load size is sensed by the machine which adds water accordingly. The steam feature is very useful for enhancing cleaning results with many cycles. Multiple water temperatures, soil level selections, stain removal cycles, multiple spin speeds & number of rinse selections further enable personally customized cycles which can be stored by the machine. A nice convenience & could enable children/seniors to wash clothes without having to push more than one button. The delay wash feature is a personal favorite & I'm looking forward to using the overnight dry cycle. Unlike many front load machines, it has both pre-soak & pre-wash cycles. Having a lighted drum is an unexpected, but welcome feature as is the integrated pedestal which really does provide the "right height". Anything taller wouldn't have fit in my space & anything lower would have caused difficulty for me.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Excellent except for load balancing
on April 2, 2016
Posted by: Rachel82
from Alabama, United States
This is my first front loader. I love the height of this washer and all the features it offers. Clothes look and smell clean when cycle has finished. I do have a couple of issues with it. From load one we have had balance problems. Our first load would get to a certain time and then add minutes. It did this at least 9 times before we finally removed all jeans from the unit and tried again with success. It also wastes a lot of time spinning trying to determine the load size. An average wash that is supposed to take 109 minutes can easily take 1 1/2 to 2 hours if there are heavier items. The dispenser drawer also has to be emptied of water after the cycle often but this isn't really an issue for me. Overall I do like this washer and its features.
On a side note, the matching dryer is the absolute best dryer I've ever had.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Oossibly the best washer I've had
on April 6, 2016
Posted by: StephP
from Greater Atlanta
Assuming this washer proves to be durable, it is the best washer I've had. I love the fact that it has a cycles to clean the tub...no more musty front loader smell. The only think that could make this better is if it had a reminder that let me know it has been a month since its last cleaning.
In addition to cleaning it self, it cleans my clothes very well (that is the most important thing, right?). The bulky bedding setting is great. I am not continually rebalancing the load when I wash towels and sheets. I really have also come to trust the settings that pre-set for blood and grass stains. I have two teenage sons that both play
sports, so there is plenty of laundry in our house. So far this washer keeps up with my family better than any other washer I've had.
