Worst. Washer. Ever.
on September 30, 2015
Posted by: ksea
I have had this machine now for over two years. It has always worked very poorly and only because I live way out in the middle of nowhere and neglected to sign up for extra service coverage have I kept it. Here are its main weaknesses: Unbalanced load. Apparently, one is only allowed to wash all jeans, or an entire load of similarly weighted t shirts or towels in order to have a cycle go smoothly from start to finish. Otherwise you get to run back and forth re-distributing your load. It is great if you like that extra large drum for big blankets, woohoo! If that is all I ever washed I would give it 5 stars. But no, it does not like doing small loads, at all. Get used to the UE signal. Also, it has ruined almost all of our family's clothing even when it does run right, due to the fact that it does not use enough water and twists and mashes the clothes being washed in a minuscule amount of water. I'm amazed they call it "washing". Add to this, you are not allowed by the machine to add your own water. There is no add water function. If you try to manually add, as I in frustration have done, this results in it freaking out and either filling the tub to overflowing with more water as it tries to guess the "weight" of your clothes, or it shutting down on you and draining all the water. Forget also about washing anything out of the ordinary: like soft tennis shoes or waterproof bed pads or some favorite pillow or jacket you want to wash on delicate, because it gets confused with these things and keeps adding water during the final minutes of the spin cycle, only to then decide it must go back to a rinse/spin cycle. Seriously, my kids say the machine is possessed. In short, this machine is NOT "smart" and you should not allow a "smart" machine like this to try to think for you because it actually is very stupid. Add to this it pokes out into my hall space because the back fittings are awkward and force the hoses to stick out 4 inches, where my old machine it was only maybe 2 inches. We are constantly working on laundry because of all the stops and starts. Tears of teenagers over ruined clothing. Enough. I am buying a new machine now and kicking this one to the curb.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
