Great Washer!
on December 27, 2014
Posted by: MalcDaddy
from Springfield, Mo
Verified Purchase:Yes
Our old washer died about a little over a year ago, but our finances precluded getting a new one. Then our son was diagnosed with leukemia, and using the laundromat was no longer an option due to concerns about bacteria which is a problem for anyone undergoing chemo. After research, we discovered that steam washers did a decent job of getting rid of bacteria in clothes. After subscribing to Consumer Reports, we discovered that this washer rated highly, especially when compared to other washers at a much higher price tag. If I recall correctly, this washer rated an 80 while the highest rated washer rated an 83, and cost a few hundred dollars more.
Now, I'm not the type of person who feels angst over my washing machine killing polar bears. When I buy a washer, the biggest question I have is "Does it get my clothes clean?" The answer to that is a resounding yes. "Environmentally friendly" or not, this washing machine maybe even gets our clothes cleaner than the old top loader ever did. Furthermore, it really does seem to be more gentle on clothes at the same time. Technology is a wonderful thing.
There are a couple drawbacks though. One, a load takes longer. A full load on the sanitize cycle takes 2 1/2 hours. Some of this is mitigated by the fact the spin cycle leaves clothes less waterlogged, and so drying takes less time. Still, plan your time accordingly.
Another thing to keep in mind is that after you finish washing, you need to run a paper towel around the rim, and leave the door slightly ajar to prevent mildew. I asked if this had changed in HE washers over the last few years, and the delivery people told me play it safe.
Also, when not on sale, the price tag is still a bit hefty for my tastes, even if I wasn't on a budget. However, that's just my own personal preferences on what I like to spend money on. Compared to other washers, on a dollar-for-dollar basis, this particular machine excels.
Pros -
- Steam Cleaning.
- Dryer clothes when finished.
- Plenty of cycles to handle most family needs.
- Large enough tub to handle a king-sized comforter, assuming it isn't too thick.
- Gentle on clothes while sacrificing nothing in cleanliness.
- 10 year warranty on the motor.
Cons -
- Long cycle times.
- The maintenance needs of any HE washer where mildew is concerned.
- Expensive like any steam washer of comparable size.
Even though there's a 10 year warranty on the motor, buy the extended warranty. As technology becomes more complex, the potential for breakdown increases. While it's all well and nice to say that it's the principle of the thing, even the most exacting of production lines will produce the occasional lemon. I have never purchased an extended warranty and regretted it.
In summation, we are quite happy with this washer so far, and recommend it highly to anyone willing to spend the money.

For years, the SWAP Force has worked to protect the volcano that replenishes the Skylanders' magic. When an epic battle forced a devastating eruption, the SWAP Force was blasted apart and the Skylanders were sent to Earth. Each armed with the ability to swap powers, the Skylanders must now embark on an exciting new adventure to save Skylands. Say hello to Kickoff Countdown, an explosive character with a mysterious past. Countdown was discovered by a group of Yetis who were snowboarding one particularly chilly morning when they came across a big bomb encased in ice. After bringing it back to their cabin, they were shocked when it actually came to life. No one, not even Countdown himself, has any memory of where he came from or how he ended up frozen in the mountains. Since becoming a Skylander, Master Eon has been graciously trying to help piece together fragments of his past. But this has proven difficult, as Countdown loses some of his memory every time he explodes ~ which happens a lot. In the meantime, Countdown has enjoyed working with Eon and fighting alongside the Skylanders to defend their world against evil ~ even if he occasionally forgets what he is doing. Do you have what it takes to help this brave ~ and forgetful ~ hero find his way and stand strong among the Skylanders?Harness Kickoff Countdown's explosive powers to help the Skylanders save the day with the action figure included in this Character Pack. Armed with incredible bombastic abilities, Kickoff Countdown is ready to burst into action. Only you can help protect Skylands ~ are you ready?

What's the biggest size TV this can support?

The company that makes it says 27 inches, and 40lbs. I have a 29 inch monitor, and used zip-ties to stabilize the slightly oversized base. It's remained staedy despite that unauthorized modification.

Does this gaming desk come with a slide out keyboard tray?

No, but you can buy one third party. However, you need to adjust the position of the support underneath, which I did.
