I bought this washing machine for the steam feature but I haven't actually used that too much so far. It does a great job, laundry is clean,smells fresh and it's all done very quietly. I am still getting used to the door however, not wanting to be forceful I sometimes have a problem getting it to stay closed. Almost like it doesn't quite latch completely. I will keep an eye on that though
I purchased this washer and matching dryer to replace two "ancient" appliances. What a difference this Electrolux washer makes! I like all the choices that it offers in washing cycles, water temps and spin cycles. It's easy to operate, saves a lot of water usage, detergent usage and time and still gets my clothes clean and spun dry--much much better than my old washer.
This is the best washer I have ever owned. I was reluctant to try a front load but so glad I got this one! It washes cleaner, revived my stinky towels, removes stains, shorter wash times, super quiet & I love every single thing about it! My daughter in law has 4 kids under 6 & got one because I love mine so much. It runs nonstop at her house & she loves it!
I got this as a replacement washer because I had been having problems with my other washer (different brand). The store was nice to allow me to chose any washer I wanted. I didn't even know Electrolux made a washer at the time. It is the best washer I have ever had! Clothes come out really clean and I don't even have to prespot which is amazing. I would get another Electrolux washer in a heart beat!
I have been using for a month with great results. As advertised, quiet and love the steam in the touch-up cycle! The size is larger enough to do laundry only once a week!
We've had this washer for a few years, and then the strike piece for the door broke off when the door was shut. The door always gave us trouble closing - it would pop back open several times, needing to be almost slammed shut to stay shut. Needless to say after several years of this, the little strike (the part that sticks out of the door to insert into the main washer and latch closed) broke off. We were able to buy a new part from an appliance parts dealer for less than the manufacturer's price and no shipping charges, and replaced it ourselves. The most effort was in removing the broken piece from inside the latch on the machine. Overall, we are happy with the washer, the door problem was a minor inconvenience that we were quite happy to fix ourselves.
