Product review (1 stars): Stay Away
I purchased the cabrio washer in August 2011.  I lived alone so I don't have to use the washing machine that much.  The lid has broken twioe in two years.  The first time it happened it was within two months of purchase so it was still under warranty.  The second time was in the second year.  I contacted the local company that sold the washer to me and the quote is for $565.00 to fix the lid.  Not only does the lid break all the time, but clothes are not clean when they come out of the washing machine.  Some are still dry in spots where the water nor detergent has even touch the article of clothing.  Also, there is a "special trick" to wash sheets so that they do not fold into a pancake in the washing machine.  Needless to say, I have told everyone that I know to not buy this machine.  Currently, I am trying to get some of my money back or the company to switch out the machines.  In the mean time, I am changing out the new one with my 10 year old washing machine that washes a lot better than the new one.
