Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the 4.5 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Front Load Washer's cleaning performance, as clothes consistently come out nearly dry. The washer is also praised for its quiet operation and ease of use, along with its surprisingly high quality and large capacity for handling bigger loads. Many appreciate the efficient spin cycle, which significantly reduces drying time. Positive feedback also highlights the machine's features, comparable to more expensive models.

    Great washer for the price. Cleans my clothes, however, I have noticed in the two washes I have done, clothes have come out with laundry detergent stains on them. I will check to see if the way that I add detergent to the dispenser is what may have caused that problem. But, overall, I like the washer. Additionally, it is super heavy and was very hard for me to move out of the middle of floor, where it was left when the delivery people dropped it off.

    Very good for its price point. It's a belt drive no direct. Very quiet & very simple to run.

    It’s a very nice washing machine for the price! It does what it needs to do, but I will say I was disappointed with the sanitize cycle. I had some bedsheets that smelled unwashed, so I ran it through that 3hr cycle, and they came out smelling the same. I run it again through a normal cycle, and it smells clean. Besides that, I’ve really enjoyed it so far and haven’t had any issues.

    This was one of the cheapest front loaders I could find and it has been working great for the month that I've had it. It has some features that others don't have in this price range like steam. The only annoying things are: 1. The weird slot that you put detergent in. There's a plastic thing that you can pull out and move around depending on how concentrated the detergent is. I've never seen that before and I'm sure I'll forget to move it. 2. When the water turns on and off to the washer it is loud and sounds like a door slamming shut in my house. This replaced a washer that was only 4 years old. I hope this lasts longer than my Samsung.

    Clothes dry pretty well on each setting. Only thing I would suggest was if doing a quick dry, it needs to be a light load of clothes, otherwise they won’t dry all the way.

    Enjoying my new insignia washer

    I love my new insignia washer. It's a great washer with a lot of features that I have used already. I bought this in January and have been very happy with the insignia brand. I bought my dragon first guy dryer first, and now I have the washer. The only thing negative I have to say is that sometimes my clothes don't get as clean as they would with an agitator washer.

    Great for the price. Works wonderfully. Only issue dropped it a star is that on high speed when it's fully loaded it has a tendency to shake this is normal for washers but it is even on all sides. It can just be loud and be carefully of what's on top.

    Kind of loud, and really keeps moisture where you have to leave door open for a while for it to dry but so far doing it’s jib
