it does the job but it's soooo loud. i picked this one specifically for the vibration reduction and it does not do that. my room is far from where it is located and i can hear it with my door closed. along with that, the jingle that plays is long and kinda annoying. i turned it off, but now i don't get notified when my laundry is done which is not too big of a deal because i can tell that it's done when the loud vibrating noise is gone lol.
