Clothes will get the fabric care they deserve with this ENERGY STAR certified front load washer. Featuring Precision Dispense to release detergent at just the right time for optimal cleaning, this 4.5 cu. ft. energy efficient washer also provides enough room to wash over three baskets of clothing in a single load. The Smooth Wavestainless steel basket in this front load washer helps to prevent fabrics from fraying and snagging while the Cold Wash cycle gently lifts stains while protecting clothes from heat damage. The Sanitize cycle with Oxi even eliminates 99.9% of common household bacteria.
The clothes come out very soft, and are only damp. I find the washer would need the pedestal for someone with a bad back. Although the same size as my previous front load, the tub is very low in the washer, and rather hard to get clothes out (I"m fairly tall) without stooping quite low. The controls are on the front, and very handy to reach, if a little confusing, and again, I must lean over to see the wash temperature.
