It's a nice washer. A little noisy while it's agitating but not any louder than 30 year old whirlpool it replaced. Tub is large enough to wash queen sized bedding with no problem.  I really like the fact that you can control water level and also open lid to check load. Most new washers won't let you do this. It does take awhile longer for the tub to fill compared to the old whirlpool.  Overall I give this new washer high marks. I have only owned it for one day so can't speak for longevity.
