This washer may be fine for someone else, but it does not deliver what I wanted. 1.When I choose "hot" water, I want the water supply to come exclusively from the hot water line. Instead, I get a mix of hot and cold water, leaving me with warm water. I need true hot water for some loads, for use with Oxiclean bleach, for instance. 2. The tub is too deep for convenient unloading. I have to stand on tip-toe and stretch hard to reach items at the bottom of the tub. I had a 2.5 front loader before, and was happy with it, but I wanted something a little bigger when it came time for a new washer. I wish I could have found a washer with around 3.5 cu ft capacity. At 4.1 cu ft capacity, this washer is larger than I need. It crowds the available laundry space and requires a strong stretch to unload it. 3. The "extra water" option is not designed to work with the "normal" cycle, which is generally when I would want to use that option.
