I just received my washer last week but im already in love with it. I had a used washer I had purchased a couple of years ago and it was messing up and it was cheaper to buy a new one than invest in another used one. This Hotpoint made me think of my old roper that I really loved. I like the lid doesn't lock as soon as it starts washing and that you can select the amount of water instead of that auto Sense mess.
