So far so good
||Posted .This was my first time purchasing a washer and dryer set and I could not be happier with my choice! I decided to pay extra for the installation and the best buy team worked quick to get my machines installed within about 30 mins of arrival. They tested both machines to make sure there were no issues with the installation and went on their way. While this machine is not quiet it is not as loud as some machines i have used before and it does not shake during the spin cycle. This machine will fit up to a full size comforter with easy and overall the cycles dont take too long to complete. Be aware that this machine does not have a fabric softner dispenser, you can buy one pretty cheap to install from amazon but it does not initially come with. If you are on a budget I highly recommend giving this a purchase.

Great washer, wish all washer never shaked.
||Posted .Owned for 2 months when reviewed.in 2014 my Dad bought what I believe to be a refurbished Amana washer & dryer, or maybe it was new. At any rate by 2018 it was rattling and shaking violently, he even had to place a cinder block between it and the dryer because it would almost shake itself off the raised area it's on. This thing shook so bad it smashed up the plastic tub inside (I was finding pieces of the tub inside the drum and behind the washer), plus the bleach cup kept popping out. So this year I had enough and bought a new one. This one is nice and has Load Sensing feature. The buttons are different, but it's new and works great. It rattled once, and that was because I was washing a rug, and likely got unbalanced. I just wish they would design them to NEVER shake or put bumpers on the inside.

Overall good product, bad help from geek squad hot
||Posted .Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.It operates well. No issue yet. Only issue is the dryer came dented once and washer came dented twice. Waiting for the replacement from best Buy. Anyway, Best Buy took good care of it. They offered me discounts twice for the trouble. So I feel not troubled at all. Only thing is don’t call geek squad for help in such issues. Go to the store and the staff is really helpful. I went to the Tucson Wetmore one because Geek Squad made my trouble worsened when it came dented for the first time. Save your time by visiting the store

A month later with new washer and dryer
||Posted .Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.Washer and dryer work great! You barely even hear the dryer when it’s on. Washer has a great sensor on it to detect how much water it needs for the clothes. Highly recommend both!

Q: QuestionWhere do you put fabric softener?
Asked by Mndy.
- A:Answer You have to wait until the washer gets to the "final rinse" cycle,open the lid, and pour the fabric softener into the tub. Very inconvenient because you have to wait around & figure out when it is in the final rinse. The cycle light only tells you it is in the rinse cycle, and I don't know how to tell if it is a "final rinse" or not.

Q: QuestionI purchased this washer without realizing it did not have a fabric softener dispenser. Now I have to wait around to figure out when is the "second" rinse cycle so I can add the softener manually. Can I purchase a dispenser for this machine?
Asked by Rita.
- A:Answer There is an attachment that you can order from Amana's website. I believe it's about $20. I'm using a Downy Ball that I picked up at the grocery store and I haven't had an issue.

Q: QuestionHello, what is the length of time it takes for a regular wash cycle..?? From filling the tub to final spin..??
Asked by MrGee.
- A:Answer It takes about an hour unlike my old fashioned one with took 30 min. One plus is the clothes feel softer. The matching dryer also takes the same amount of time to dry too.

Q: Questionwhat button to push for soaking before the wash sycle?
Asked by summer.
- A:Answer There isn't a button to push for soaking before the wash cycle. However, as the manual mentions, you can hit the start/cancel/pause button once the washer has filled the basin with water. Hitting the start/cancel/pause button once the basin has filled with water will give you any amount of time to let your garments "soak." If you pull up the washer door after hitting the start/cancel/pause button then you will only have 10 minutes to soak before the washer thinks you have abandoned the wash cycle and the washer will drain out the water and sit there until you restart the whole wash cycle again. I recommend starting your wash cycle as you normally would, then hitting the start/cancel/pause button (do not open the lid) once the basin has "filled", and let the clothes sit for the length of time you desire. After your clothes have soaked for a time, press the start/cancel/pause button to resume your previously selected wash cycle.

Q: QuestionCan the lid be open during the wash cycle like my old kenmore?
Asked by Rags.
- A:Answer YOU CAN OPEN THE LID DURING THE WASH CYCLE BUT IT WILL STOP TEMPORARILY WHEN LID IS OPEN, BUT IT WILL CONTINUE THE WASH CYCLE AFTER LID IS CLOSED AGAIN. IT DOESN'T LOCK AFTER LID IS CLOSED WHICH I LIKE.
Answered by CUTEGURLE
Q: QuestionIs it possible to know how many prongs are on the power plug that comes with this washer? 3 or 4?
Asked by Dab.
- A:Answer The power plug is a standard 3-prong plug that plugs into a regular household electric outlet. (It's my understanding that only electric dryers require special electric, but not washers.) Attached is a photo of the actual plug on my washer's cord
