This was given to me as a gift, and while it works well enough, it would be nice if a bit more water was used. The max fill setting barely fills the halfway. I simply add less clothes to make up for the lack of adequate water, but it seems like a waste of such a large washing capacity. Also, I wish the annoying beep at the end could be turned off. It WILL NOT stop beeping if you don't open the lid, and is very annoying. Frigidaire microwaves do that too, so maybe it's just something this brand does. Frigidaire - I like your products but PLEASE stop making them beep incessantly at the end of a cycle.
