I love the turbo washing and watching the machine in action through the clear lid. I chose a top loader versus a front loader since I often forget an item and can easily interrupt the cycle to add them without starting all over again. Clothes come out very clean.  FYI- This machine has a huge tub and is quite deep and could hold very large loads. If you are a petite person, you may have difficulty reaching the bottom of the tub to retrieve small items, like socks.
