Product review (5 stars): Throw out your top-loader TODAY!
I have only the washer. I have been using it for a few months and it has become abundantly clear that this front load washer stands head and shoulders above any top loading washer I have used during the last 40 years.  For 40 years, it appears, I have had to wear less than clean clothes that have been washed in name-brand highly rated top loaders.  I line-dry my clothes and they never have any lingering lint, detergent residue or stiffness and the marvelous aroma of line-dried cannot be matched.  I resent the makers of top loading machines that dupe the public into buying inferior washers.  July 2017 update.  It is hot and dry this week so I washed my medium-fill goose-down comforters [the ones that say "dry clean only"] in this front-loader and it handled the job with ease.  I line-dried the comforters [remember I don't have a drier] for 2 days in the sun and one night in the hot garage.  They are super-clean and just as lofty and fluffy as ever - all, thanks to this marvelous washing machine.
