It was exceptionally well made, everything was tight, and it was a quiet operation with excellent engineering.  Takes up less space while providing a larger load capability.  The control features are excellent especially the ability for the machine to measure water and detergent needs automatically.

I selected this variety because of the color primarily but it included more features than I thought I would use.  Now I am very glad I have those features and use them routinely.  

I feel it is a good value and would make the same purchase again.
