    I wanted to wait at least a month in order to write my review, so here it is. I like this washer it was on the cheap side in price and that’s exactly what I was looking for since my washer and dryer is located on the outside of my home and did not wanted to expose a nice fancy one outside. Even though the Insignia washer was affordable she has been good to me. This Insignia washer top loader replaced and LG front load which I has for a while. For a long time I wanted a top loader with an agitator. At first I was a bit concern with the movement of the agitator since it goes sorta slow not like the old school ones that go fast. Even though that was a turn off I still had some faith in this washer. The Eco Autosensing was annoying becauae id something is not well balanced it will give you an error code then you have to go and fix the clothes and let it continue washing. Very annoying if you were to leave do errands and think that the load is completely done and you come back to an error code ughh. Water levels are fine you have the option to add more water for heavy soiled clothes or heavy duty blankets. The size of this washer is pretty decent I can fit one of my really thick blankets with no problem. It doesnt shake or make horrible noises. Easy to dispense your detergent and softner. Overall the Insignia washer does a great job at washing, I got the hang of the off balance error, doesnt shake or make noises. Dispenses enough water. Very affordable and simple to use. So Yes I definitely recommend this washer.

    I've been in need of a new washer since September 2022. At that time I read alot of reviews for all the leading manufacturers for their washers. Frankly it concerned me about all the negative reviews. Didn't want to spend $800-1000 for a problematic new High Efficiency washer. So I purchased a used washer. It lasted only a couple of months, now back in the same boat. In shopping for a new machine came across this Insignia washer. Reasonably priced so I gave it a shot. Have had it 2 months and Very Happy with it's performance, ease of use, and it's not that noisy. It has a button that allows for extra water if desired. Multiple settings for type of washing cycles. Although the manual does not explain the differences in the water temperature settings, a little searching revealed the difference between Cold & Tap Cold, also Warm & Eco-warm. Nice options to have. Also the Start Button doubles as the Pause button which allows you to pause the Cycle operation so as to add softener, bleach, or additional items that you may have forgotten and once lid is closed the cycle continues in the exact same spot w/o restarting which seemed to be a complaint with other manufacturers.

    I’ve had it for a month now and it’s been working great! It’s very easy to use, can hold a lot of clothes or big blankets, very deep (I’m short and need a stepping stool to reach lol), and we love that it has an agitator.

    I am happy with this purchase. Insignia - 4.1 Cu. Ft. Efficiency Top Load Washer does an excellent job. You can change the temperature, add more water, quick wash, pause the load, put on the hand wash cycle, and rinse and spin only- Just lots of options. A must-buy, must-see in-action washer. Did I mention the price is good? I guess I am in love with this washer, it's a keeper. Old school washer, stainless steel bin, and good results, what better combination one needs? So far it's Kudos over in my laundry room.

    I am so glad I made this purchase. I absolutely love this washer. The features are amazing, the value is amazing, and the size of the drum is huge! There is a button for delayed start time as well as everything from light to heavy loads. You can change your water temperature, add more water with a click of a button, or use the hand wash cycle. Washes really well.

    I love this washing machine ! There is lots of room in the stainsteel tub, i love the push buttons and the delay button you can set for later washing , my clothes seem cleaner. I was use to a 15yr old kenmore with a 2 cycle turn knob . I bought my new Signia Nov 2023 and so far I'm very pleased with it. I plan on buying the matching dryer later , but I still have my old dryer that works good. I would advise not to use your knees to push the machine back or in place it could bend the front panel My son accidently used his knees now i have a dent . Sad

    Upgraded to the Insignia 41 Cu Ft washer from a thirty-year-old Hotpoint and couldn't be happier. Easy to operate, clean and fast install by Best Buy, took the old one with them, very satisfied. Been using the washer for a month now, it was a refurbished unit and is working properly and a whole lot better than it's predecessor.
