Have been using this amazing machine now for a week and a half and absolutely love it. In our house we have 11 of us with 4 dogs and 2 toddlers that visit often also. It has made keeping up with laundry so much easier and more pleasant  in general. (Its the folding of laundry dont care for lol ) The cycles and load size on the machine I am truly pleased and impressed  with when it comes to how well it washes true to the loads.  The machine itself is super easy to use sleek and very nice we went with the black steel. I know I have had the machine a short time but we have done we have already ran so much laundry through it! We love it. I will up date my posting if anything changes as it is still very early with our purchase and journey of this amazing machine!
