I bought the washer/dryer pair because of space limitations.  I have always used the speed cycle on my previous washer.  When I try to use this cycle on this washer I am very limited on the number of articles I can wash in one load as it leaks water from the bottom--very inconvenient since it is impossible to get under washer to dry up the mess. I do not overload the tub! I will not recommend this unit to anyone
