Good but it gets unbalanced pretty easily and requires being unplugged to unlock and rebalance. It can be irritating at times. I’m not a huge fan for the price but it does work well to clean larger loads.

First Hi-Efficiency Washer

Good machine but it was our first Hi-Efficiency washer and they do operate differently. We have had good results with cleaning our clothes, most of the time it cleans better than our old style washer. It does take longer to complete a load of clothes. Sometimes we add additional water (our machine allows that) when we start a load to increase the water level. The spin cycles really removes most of the water much better than old agitator styles. We have used this machine for over 1 month--no mechanical/quality issues. Make sure it fits in your laundry room, this machine is slightly bigger/taller than our old Kenmore.

I love this W&D set I bought. The pricing was as good if not better than other stores. It is big enough for a king size comforter and does a great job. It's also very smart in clever ways.

After having this machine for a few months I really have come to dislike it. I previously had a Samsung front loader which I switched to a top loader because I was sick of constantly cleaning it so it wouldn't get the front-loader musty smell and where it was wasn't convienient to have the door open all the time (but we did). This machine fit in the space much better as it isn't as deep as a front loader. It has a really big tub and isn't hard to get to the bottom of it. I wish I would have gotten one with an agitator and not the impeller as it seems the clothes don't move as much as they should. In the "normal" cycle it doesn't use enough water. Plus you can't use the "deep fill" option in the normal cycle. So I have to run the active jet to dampen the clothes before starting the cycle to make them heavier so it'll use more water. On the opposide end, the bedding cycle uses more water than it should and then the sheets will "balloon" with air because there isn't an agitator to keep them tumbling down. I have to stop the machine to push the sheets under the water. On the plus side it's very quiet and it balances very well when it spins. On the down side I feel like I have to babysit the machine to be sure my clothes get clean.

Love this washer. We were looking for a top load without an agitator and this is the perfect fit. Can wash huge loads too! I like the pre-wash options that helps tackle stains before washing, too.

Washer is quiet and efficient. Nice cycle options. Only draw back is depth of drum. If you’re short you’ll need a stool to remove clothes from the bottom. Otherwise I’m extremely happy with this washer.

Everyone loves this machine. Incredibly silent. The water filling is the loudest thing on this machine. Does a great job. Much bigger capacity than I expected! Probably going to need a bigger dryer now.
