Product review (1 stars): Hunk of Junk!
We bought this washer about 3 years ago.  Since then we have had numerous problems with it.  Be VERY careful not to leave change in pockets.  A penny was stuck in the water pump and ruined it.  We had water flooding the laundry room and since it was upstairs, it leaked over the pan and started coming out from the lights downstairs!  I should have known then that this was a lemon.  For a while now, the spin cycle sounds like a jet engine coming through our house.  We can't even hear the TV when it is spinning.  Then we noticed another leak.  Turns out its now the bearings and the repair man said it would be over $500 to fix it.  What ever happened to the good ole reliable machines of long ago?  I had a Kenmore that I owned for years and NEVER had a problem with it.  I went to lowes to find an "old fashion" kind and they have a lousy selection.  Not sure what to get now.  My advice is to STAY AWAY from this hunk of junk!
