Product review (4 stars): Works well low energy
The washer washes cloths.  There is a lot less lint so I think it is better on the cloths.  It takes much longer than the old top loader.  It is quiet.  No musty smell but we use it every day.  It uses very little water and looking through the door the cloths do not even look soaked.  The power bill dropped about 10 to 15 dollars with this washer over the last one.  The cloths come out clean but nothing spectacular, most washers make the cloths come out clean. You still have to pretreat collars and stains.  The extra high temp setting makes one feel the towels are sanitary but the dryer gets about that hot so the sanitizing effect is redundant unless you hang your laundry.  Had it for over two months and hope it lasts.  A lot of money for a washer and dryer set though.  It is nice not having the dog go nuts when the washer hits the spin cycle.  The matching dryer keeps trying to stop early so some of the cloths are still damp.  I think the dry sensor is off a bit so you have to set it for dryer than normal.  Minor inconvenience.
