I've had several washers in my lifetime, many really old models. So, to receive this and see all the many features, it was overwhelming. Being a dad, having kids in sports, washing has been non stop, especially during softball season with leagues and highschool. Also, having a daughter, towels and clothes tend to get washed more due to how many she'd use and go through daily it seemed. I loved the quick wash feature, due to forgetting to wash something and it's needed that day. It's much quieter than others I've been around, which is perfect to do loads at night if needed.
