This is my second set of a stackable washer/dryer. It does a much better job of getting the clothes clean as it has an agitator not an infusor. The clothes are spun to remove most of the water and that decreases the drying time. It has a status light so you know where it is at in the cycle. The dryer has seven cycles to choose from, another bonus. The only feature I miss is a buzzer to indicate the end of the dryer cycle. Otherwise, this is an excellent machine for my needs and I’m very satisfied with the purchase.
