I’m trying to like this machine. It has a sensor to detect how much water to use, but when I open the lid to check the progress, the water is not covering all of the clothes. I think I just need to get used to this. And I think that’s because of the cycle I chose. I’m used to letting the machine fill with water, add detergent, then add laundry. This top load machine requires that you add detergent, then the clothes, and then the water. Just weird. It is quiet, though.

This is my second time buying this washer after 7 years. It is affordable in price and works very well.

I was skeptical to get a new washer that was HE. I had a 17yr old agitator model that could no longer be fixed. This model had the agitator (although it does not move as fast as old models) and was basic. It does use less water...you will usually see clothes above the water line. But so far I have not seen any cleaning problems. It has several options (bulky setting uses more water) so read up on the manual to optimize for the load. It also takes some time to run a load, especially with extra rinse or soak. I think on average a load now takes an hour, but the clothes come out rather dry and I do believe I use less water with less wear-and-tear on the clothes during the cycles. It is not that noisy. Normal clicks and swirl noises, but less noisy than my old one. It also seems to handle large loads without balance problems. Overall, 4 stars due to the desire to have an option for a bit more water, but I recommend this washer because it is just how HE washers are now no matter the model.
