[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I just got this machine to replace the GE machine I had for the last four years. Loved the GE machine, but even though it had a 10 year motor warranty, the barrel rusted out underneath the impeller four years in, which means it was a crappy design. My landlord purchased this whirlpool top load impeller washer to replace it and get it installed in a couple of days so I wasn’t without laundry. It has less controls, it does not show you the amount of time you have left on your cycle, which is a huge downer since it’s good for someone to know how much time they have left on their cycle, it’s super loud. It’s missing a soap dish dispenser, which I do miss – I think using a Downey ball or putting the soap directly on clothing is kind of ghetto and old school. The faucet feature is cool but the other thing I’ve noticed is when it spins it doesn’t really spin the clothes all that dry, they are still a bit moist to the point where I wasn’t sure if my dryer would actually dry them well enough. The dryer has been able to dry them well enough so so far so good but I would say the biggest things that hit me or the fact that it’s super loud it doesn’t spin clothes very dry. It’s missing the soap and softener dispenser and I really miss the digital time factor showing how long the load takes. Also being able to adjust spin would be a great addition – something GE did better. I do hope this washer lasts a full 10 years like it’s supposed to. I’m thankful to have it, but it certainly could use some sound dampening (wash cycles and filling are both incredibly loud) and a few extra features to make it better
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My old washer was leaking,so it was time to replace it. I am enjoying the much larger capacity but am very frustrated with the lack of instructions- in print and online. I have no idea what some buttons do. The store employee Googled my questions and still couldn’t answer them. Frustrating.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It does not wash all the clothes well. No!, I didn't over stuff the washer. No!, it wasn't under water level, I even used the Deep water cycle. Some clothes still come out spotted dry areas.
Worst washer ever !! who’s bright idea was it to not have a dispenser for liquid fabric softener who stands there waiting for the rinse cycle to add it ….no one ever!! Get better design and give what we need ! Never again will I purchase this brand.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] No one seems to be able to tell me how to use it. Your staff showed me the manual which only tells me how to install it. Can’t seem to figure out what high deep water is used for no what I use the faucet for. When I tried using the faucet and put soap in there when I lifted the cover it all drained out. I keep wasting the tide pads when touching the shut off because everything drains off. Doesn’t seem like I can add something after it starts. No, I am very unhappy with it and would not recommend it to anyone. I have had others try to help me and so far no success.
