Product review (5 stars): Simply Nice
First of all, it's quiet.  I'm not talking, you can't hear it when you're standing next to it quiet, but it doesn't disturb you at all.  Second, another review commented that it cleans their close better, and I wondered what they meant.  Fortunately, they were correct.  I workout a lot, and after a while it gets more and more difficult to competely get rid of the workout smell.  My previous washer, which was also a high efficiency washer, just could do it any more for some of my shirts.  This washer does a fantastic job, and I don't have to smell like I'm ending a workout before I start.  Now I know what they mean by "better".  I could mention some of the really nice extra features, but that's the most important feature a washer can have.  Well done Maytag.
