The washer itself is very visually attractive and sturdy.  Plus the washer interior is very large with stainless steel and no agitator, which you can wash very large loads and large items very easily.  Of course the washer has smart compatibility, and you can change settings on your phone and upload custom wash cycles.   One feature I noticed right away is the Vibration Reduction Technology.  The washer is able to sense and balance the load, including heavy loads, which makes the spin cycle much quieter and with less movement.  I don't have to worry about putting rugs and comforters in the washing machine.  Also, the bedding preset is very useful.  It dries bedding more thoroughly, and I don't have to dry sheets and comforters over and over again.
