This washer has a large capacity and lots of features, but the most important aspect of a washer is its ability to clean.  My laundry has never been cleaner!  The amount of lint caught by my dryer has more than doubled. If you're still using your old dryer like I am, don't fill the washer more than half way because it won't fit into the dryer.  I have the washer connected to my phone and it will alert me when the cycle is done.
