Only had for 2 weeks, but it seems to work very well. I have not had a problem with low water levels. All my laundry gets soaked before wash cycle begins. My only complaint is that I am short, and the tub is so deep that it is hard to get the laundry out when the cycle is finished. The tradeoff for that is a good one in that the tub is so large I can fit much more in it than my previous washer held. I don't add too much more than before to avoid overfilling, but it is nice to eliminate a load or 2 on wash day.
