This model runs great so far, the clothes and blankets come out clean and fresh and all features seem to work great.  My biggest test was a very thick sherpa king sized blanket.  I folded as stated in the instruction manual and was skeptical but the cycle completed without a problem (balance or weight issue, not cleansing the blanket entirely due to bring too big/heavy/thick) and the blanket was clean and smelled fresh.  This washer took care of it!  We were so relieved and pleased.   I wish we could change the setting manually from rinse to spin.  If i want to clear some left over dirt in the washer from washing any animals blankets for their outdoor lounge beds I have to let an actual rinse/spin cycle run.  Instead of just having it drop some water in the washer tub and then set it to spin/drain.  Definitely no big deal!
