Product review (1 stars): Awful
I don't even own this machine (it is in the house I rent) and i felt compelled to leave a review. The only way to get the clothes wet is to run it on the bulky cycle. Any other cycle doesn't wet the clothes - I know I know - it's not supposed to right? I have two toddlers and their clothes always come out extremely knotted and twisted (to the point of destruction) oh and did I mention none of their simple stains come out?? My old washer would easily remove watermelon, carrots,  chocolate,  dirt, and the occasional poop stain on my kids clothes. This machine doesn't touch stains - even ones I've pre treated and scrubbed by hand before the wash. And if you use powder soap like I do, be forewarned that you will have residual soap stains on all dark or bulky loads.  Only way to fix is to pre dissolve the soap another major annoyance.  I get it- economic friendly, uses less water, less energy blah blah. I understand how it is supposed to work. But it doesn't clean clothes. I would equate it to filling a bucket full of clothes, filling it halfway with water and soap and gently moving it side to side for awhile and rinsing. If you are a person with few stains and don't mind getting those out by hand before washing then I guess it would be ok. Certainly not practical for a family with kids. So glad I didn't pay money for this machine!
