Customers are saying

Customers are pleased with the 4.5 Cu. Ft. Top Load Washer's quiet operation, excellent cleaning performance, and ease of use. Many appreciate its large capacity and the inclusion of an agitator. While some experienced issues with the spin cycle's noise and occasional imbalance, the positive feedback on cleaning ability and user-friendliness outweighs these concerns. The glass lid is also a frequently praised feature.

    I've had this washer for about a month now and have used just about all of the settings over that time. First, the washer does a terrific job of cleaning the clothes. The tub has the ability to hold large items such as a comforter. It's located in the basement so the noise of changing cycles isn't that noticeable. However, there are a couple things that I need to comment on. This washer has the fabric softener holder in two locations. One being in a drawer with the detergent bin, the other on the center shaft. Sometimes, if I used the drawer bin, the fabric softener wouldn't be distributed into the tub. So, now I use the bin in the tub. A more disturbing issue is with the machine going off balance very easily. I always put clothes in the tub evenly, but during the start process, the tub will spin briefly as the water is filling. At times, this moves the clothes around unevenly. Fortunately, I only run the washer when I'm in the house, so when this happens I stop the washer and rearrange the load. One last thing to note, the washer is pretty tall. If a short person (like me) uses it it might be suggested to have a step stool handy to reach any clothes in the bottom of the tub. All things considered, this washer is very good. I would suggest it to anyone.

    It is a good washer but not great. The washer is unbalanced when washing a small rug and makes banging noises.

    The washer sounds like a freight train trying to break through the wall. Seriously, it is that loud. It also goes off balance with even the smallest loads.

    The washer has a very hard time balancing and spinning more than 3 towels. Good for light weight clothes, but it struggles with towels.
