Product review (1 stars): Short life
I bought this in late 2009, early 2010. It's now March of 2013 and I have to replace it already. The ball bearings are shot and the parts alone cost $500 (add labor and markup to that and you can have a brand new one). I did like it while it worked, but here are some of the downsides as well:
- you have to make sure you clear everything from the door
- it beeps when it's done without a way to turn off the beeping (the dryer of the same model at least gives an option if you want it to signal or not).

I'm a light laundry user, so this machine did not see exessive use or abuse from me (it's just me and my 5-year-old daughter). Would NOT recommend. Good machines should last more than 3 years...
