I am loving my new washer. 
I was intimidated at first by the clean controls but quickly found it to be simple and intuitive. It's great to be able to wash huge loads of bedding or small loads that require a delicate cycle. Every setting gives you countless options for water temperature, soil level or spin speed. While I normally use cold water and normal spin and soil settings, it's great to have the options when I need them. I've washed everything from hand wash sweaters to bathroom rugs to grimy garage clothes and everything comes out perfect.
I love the self clean option on the washer. I was hesitant about a front load washer. This washer has made me glad I gave it a try.
I love how quiet my Sony washer and dryer are. In a small house with tile floors we can still watch TV while they are running. No loud vibration even during the highest spin cycles.
I would definitely recommend.
