Product review (1 stars): dont torture yourelf
They cannot figure out how to control the mildew that traps in the gasket area. Do not get sucked in by the cute size - there is NO WAY to win this mildew battle. And it just gets worse with time. I have owned 4 front loaders, all with gaskets that are similar to this and none of the others have this problem. DO NOT TORTRUE YOURSLEF.
