Product review (5 stars): good washer
After seeing so many negative reviews I thought I should step in here.  I think this washer is great.  I had the full size Maytag Neptune but we sold our house and bought a used RV with this washer & dryer combo already installed and used.  I've been using it for 2 years and have had a few issues but no real problems except the door seal getting moldy and smelling.  Looking for that part right now.  I don't know how much use it got before we got it but it has been bumped around in several moves and still works great.

I try to check the drain hole each time I do a load, just like cleaning the lint filter on the dryer with each load.  I have found coins and even a screw one time blocking the hole completely.  I washed the grandkids DS games last week and found them all in the drain area.  (And they still worked.)

I am constantly amnazed at the amount of dirty clothes this little washer can handle.  If I have to wash a single item or two, I put a towel in with them to balance the load.  The unit I have has a stainless steel drum.  Don't know if that makes a difference.  I use mainly a liguid detergent designed for front loading washing machines.

The door seal issue is common with the Maytag front loaders.  I don't know if that is only Maytag or all front loaders.  I have used a product called Affresh which helps clean that seal but it was too late for mine; although it removed a lot of the gunk build up.  I will use this with my new seal religiously once a month as suggested.
