Features

  • 4.1 cu. ft. capacity with top-loading design

    Allows you to load from a standing position, rather than an uncomfortable crouch.

  • Easy to operate

    Electronic button controls with LED indicators and a dial cycle selector make the washer easy to control. Wash cycle status lights on the control panel display the stage your laundry is in.

  • 10 wash cycles

    Choose between Normal/Eco, Bulky/Bedding, Heavy Duty, Whites, ColdMotion, Quick Wash, Delicates, Drain & Spin, Rinse & Spin, and Tub Clean to clean a variety of fabrics. The ColdMotion cycle uses Insignia’s proprietary technology to thoroughly clean your laundry with tap cold water.

  • 4 temperature levels

    Select the ideal temperature for your laundry by choosing between hot, warm, cold, and tap cold.

  • My Cycle memory function

    Save a specific cycle combination to use again.

  • Auto sensor functions

    A water level sensor determines the ideal water level for each load to clean the clothes without diluting the detergent. An unbalanced sensor detects when the load inside of the drum is unevenly distributed, adding water and draining again to rebalance the load.

  • Less sound and vibration

    Washes clothes at a reasonable 63 dB or less (less than 77 dB during spin) to help keep your home peaceful. Four suspending springs help prevent vibration.

  • Matching dryer

    Pairs with the Insignia 7.0 cu. ft. Electric/Gas Dryer with Sensor Dry (models NS-DRT70EWA5/NS-DRT70GWA5) to help complete your laundry room setup.

  • Setup accessories

    Includes a drain hose, a hose holder, a tie strap, filters (2), and a User Guide inside the box to assist with assembly. Requires fill hose (not included) for standard hook-up upon delivery.

    Great Machine and Great Value!

    I have had this machine for a month now and it is truly the laundry machine I didn’t know I needed! I was looking for a machine that was affordable and quite basic. The sale price was attractive and I honestly didn’t even pay attention to the features that were included. When the machine was delivered and set up, I immediately used it and I am so impressed with the simple controls that have a variety of load type settings. I actually really enjoy doing laundry now and look forward to the next load. That’s adulting! The machine has great settings and the auto load sensor for water. volume is fantastic. It washes very well. It’s very quiet and it holds a large quantity of laundry. I really like the glass lid so that I can see what’s happening inside the machine and I also really like the digital time display.I am so impressed with this machine’s functionality that I’m actually going to go ahead and purchase the matching dryer as well even though I don’t really need a new dryer quite yet.

    So far so good

    This washer runs good, looks good and the settings are all perfect for multiple washing needs. the cylinder is huge for heavy loads. I appreciate the quietness when in use and the alarm when done. Laundry detergent receptacles are placed perfectly to the water source. It's been almost a month with this product, i'll review again after some use. So far it is an excellent appliance. I'm quite surprised.

    Premium performance and durability at a value

    I had a pair of very expensive Maytag washer and dryer that we paid probably about $3000 for the set. They lasted about three years and just barely 3 years. Unfortunately, we live in a pretty small town and there’s not many appliance stores and we have four teenage boys and then myself and my wife so six people a.k.a. a lot of laundry. Coincidentally the Maytag dryer quit heating and started to become almost uneven in the drum when it was rotating, so it would make a very loud clunking noise and almost within days of each other the washer started doing the exact same thing in terms of the clunking noise. Since it only really takes about two days before we have three loads of laundry to do, I made the executive decision to drive an hour to the closest Best Buy to purchase a new washer and dryer and when I got there since I have the Best Buy membership, they had a deal if you bought their insignia brand I believe it saved us like $200 or 150 for the pair. I can’t remember the exact price so in total we paid less than $800 for this washer and dryer set. And let me tell you best emergency purchase, we have made in terms of a major household appliance. All of the features that it has in the fact that you can set your preferred cycle to where you only have to hit the power button then hit my cycle and start so just click three button press in itself is great our $3000 set that we had before from Maytag didn’t even have that. In terms of the quality of washing the items, the washer does amazing and in terms of drying the items the dryer does amazing. Wow, we do have a lot of people in the house. My wife does a good job of taking care of things and she never overloads the washer. The dryer so that was not why our Maytag went out. She puts the same size loads in these insignias and they handle it completely fine. It does all the self balancing all that stuff and I’m genuinely very impressed with this set. I’m even more impressed with how quiet they are. I’ve never had a washer or dryer that is this quiet. Overall, an incredible product set that I would highly recommend to anybody. The set is a perfect example that paying the most amount of money doesn’t always translate to the best performance, experience or time-saving. It washes everything in less than an hour and it’s always clean. We never have to rewash unless of course we fall asleep at night and forget to put the clothes into the dryer but hey that’s user error right. I just can’t say enough how impressed we are with the set Best Buy really nailed it in terms of performance and value for the customer here. These things are constantly running because with four teenage boys, and then myself being an outdoors type of person we always have at least one more load to put in the washer. I would say on average we do about four loads a day between clothes, towels, and bedding and pillowcases, etc. Thank you, Best Buy for making such a great product that didn’t burn a hole in my wallet like the Maytag did.

    Nice washer machine!

    This washer I bought two months ago, and it is a life changer, I love the different cycles, and all my clothes have washed great so far. Best washing machine I have had in my lifetime. I have loaded large blankets/comforters and they have cleaned completely well. Great cycles and easy to operate. Very quiet, make three beeps when ur clothes are finished.

Questions & Answers

  • Can you tell me what the differences are from this model and washer model NS-TWM41WH8A? I’m curious which washer of the two performs better? The specifications seem to almost closely match each other. What are the stand out differences?

    Thank you for your inquiry! The Insignia™ 4.1 Cu. Ft. Top Load Washer with ColdMotion Technology and the NS-TWM41WH8A model are quite similar in capacity and basic features, but there are a few key differences that set them apart. The newer model with ColdMotion Technology is designed to enhance cold water washing by using dynamic wash actions to improve detergent performance, making it more energy-efficient and potentially gentler on clothes. It also has a slightly more modern design and a marginally smaller lid clearance, which could be helpful in tighter spaces. On the other hand, the NS-TWM41WH8A is a well-established model with thousands of user reviews, indicating long-term reliability and consistent performance. While it lacks ColdMotion, it’s a proven option that many users have trusted over time. If you’re looking for newer technology and better cold water performance, the ColdMotion model may be the better choice. But if you prefer a washer with a strong track record and wide user feedback, the NS-TWM41WH8A is a solid and dependable option.

  • Just got an Insignia washer, can I leave the plastic inlet filters that came already mounted in the washer for the hot and cold lines

    Thank you for your inquiry! Yes, you can leave the plastic inlet filters that came pre-installed in your Insignia™ 4.1 Cu. Ft. Top Load Washer for the hot and cold water lines. These filters are designed to catch debris or sediment from your water supply, helping to protect the washer’s internal components from potential damage. They are located at the tip of the inlet hose, just before the rubber washer. Unless they become clogged or damaged, there’s no need to remove them. However, it’s a good idea to check and clean them periodically if you notice reduced water flow. Keith | Insignia Support
