Others, however, love theirs.
Well -- it's the old story . . .
If you ask ten people, you will get ten opinions!

When we moved here I thought it was time for me to get 'modernized'
and buy one of the new front loaders, which I did.

To make it short and sweet -- I don't like it!
I don't like the fact that I can't use Tide powder, because I find some residue.
Larger items (sheets, blankets, etc.) get rolled up.
I question how can they be clean if that's what happens in the washing process???
Again -- this is me, not the washer!

Just as a point of information, my pair is a quality set -- a Whilpool Duet set on pedestals.
The problem isn't with the washer per se; it's me!
I just don't like it and would sell it in a heartbeat!
