Product review (4 stars): Go America !
Just replaced my 28yr old Maytag washer & dryer for the top of the line Speed Queen.  The dryer gets 5 stars and I especially love the no wrinkle setting.  The washer AWN 542 is very good with 3 exceptions. In an effort to go green, they compromised the water level causing me to use the reset quite often.  Then there's the water temp settings...warm is definitely not warm, it's cool and I have to add hot water to it. And finally, the fabric softener doesn't mix well and sometimes I get blue stains on the clothes (downey)so I'm back to using the Downey ball (not the worst case scenario.  All in all, I'd buy them again...let's keep America working.

I'd like to update my review...Had this machine over a year now & I still love it.  I use the automatic fabric softner dispenser now & it works fine. My previous problem with it must have been user error. I would still like the warm to be warmer but all in all, my clothes are wonderfully clean. She's a "Plain Jane" but a work horse.
