Great top loading washer

I reviewed washers for hours and went with this one after reading the reviews all over the web and after reading that it was recommended by Consumer Reports.
It holds MORE that the awful expensive front loading machine I replaced that kept leaking. (I will NEVER have a front loading machine again.) This washer has a FLAT bottom (no agitator). It is fully electronic. (really didn't want that, but it has turned out to be very nice.)
I do want to WARN buyers that is a VERY tall washer. Originally when it was delivered, I was upset that I could not open the lid because of the cabinets above washer. However, it has a feature on the door that makes part of the lid "collapse". Sounds weird, but it is very cool and works great. You may want to measure your space and then add another foot or so for lid opening etc. (Read about the lid locking feature....)
I love my washer. The people that complain about the low level water, must have only had the water guzzingly older models of decades ago...... I found it funny when I read the complaints. My clothes are clean.... I am a women and am very particular. Buy the washer. I have had mine for 2 months but a colleague at work has had hers for 2 years and loves it still. (It plays a cute little tune when the load it done!)
The washer is idiot proof.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality, pretty
Really enjoying this machine. I can get a lot of laundry in each load. So even though the wash times are longer than my old machine I get the same amount of laundry done in less loads. LOVE how quiet this machine is. The only time I hear it is when it is filling with water. Was not sure how I would like the controls at the front but I am also loving that feature.
We have only had it about 6 weeks and seems to clean pretty good. Haven't had to do any kind really dirty laundry, but only been using the normal settings. One of my complaints is that it doesn't remember your previous settings from the last wash. You have to reset it each time you start a wash. The other complaint is that a regular wash is about an hour. There is a quick wash feature is what I normally use and that takes 35 minutes. It does play a nice little song when the cycle is complete, which our old washer never beeped or did anything when it finished.
Replaced Whirlpool front load washer with LG top load and am amazed at the difference. Cleaning performance significantly improved, quiet, efficient with great features at a reasonable price. Couldn't be happier.
Pros: Performance, Style/Design, easy to use, Features/Settings, Quality
Machines cleans good and runs both smoothly and quietly. albeit a little longer than the product we had before. Design is good and functions and controls east to use and able to accommodate different conditions. Lid feature to allow air drying of tub is a definite plus...
