Love-love this washer...my 1980s clunker finally went out and was really hesitant purchasing a new washer with all the automatic functions.  I find the controls simple, easy to read and even user-friendly.  You can create and save your own cycle.  The detergent dispense is over the bin, so no more liquid detergent messes.  Very pleased with function, effective cleaning.  Also, bin capacity is larger than is seems!  It fit in my tight basement space too!
