We had a Sears Elite something-or-other, and even with a water softener and filtration system, it would not get whites clean. I suspected it was the water saver feature, which we could do nothing about. Upon selling the house, we rented a CYV for a week that had a Sears 600 series with a button for allowing extra water. Voila! Bright colors, white whites.

Our next house will either have a Speed Queen (if it fits) or some brand that allows for using enough water to get the clothes clean. No sense in conserving water if it ruins your clothing.

I also remember someone on here returning a Samsung because the clothing came out of the washer with dry spots on it.
