Product review (1 stars): Waste of Time & Money
This washing machine is a great example of penny-wise, pound-foolish.  You might purchase it because you want to save a few bucks, or because you cannot afford anything else.  You might think you're getting a great deal, and you don't need one of those new-fangled, fancy, expensive washing machine.  Let me ask you two questions:

1.  Do you want a washing machine that washes clothes?
2.  Do you want a washing machine that destroys your laundry?

If you answered YES to 1 and NO to 2, then the Estate is not the machine for you.  (If however you answered the other way, I just might have a wonderful deal to offer you....)

This washing machine is a hunk of junk.  It goes through the motions of washing (loudly) but doesn't actually clean anything.  I'm not certain how it manages to do that.  Our repairman bypassed the water sensor that used to keep the washer from getting more than its preferred few inches of water, which helped at least rinse off obvious hunks of grit and grime.  (Before that, everything came out actually dirtier than when it went in -- wow.)  So now the clothes at least do get sort of rinsed off, and our detergent has a chance to work, but somehow, nothing gets clean.  It's not the detergent, as we're still using the same brand we had before with our old washer (which died after many years of good service).

The latest problem is that every few loads, things come out with small holes in them.  The problem is not bleach, an obvious culprit in laundry holes, or a sharp object lodged inside the washing machine (we checked).  Next, large chunks started ripping out of various laundry items.  It's time to get a new washer -- only four months after wasting money on this one.

I strongly urge anyone contemplating a purchase of the Estate washing machine to wait until another, better model goes on sale.  Don't try to save money by buying this -- you won't.  We have wasted countless dollars on our water bill by having to wash loads multiple times, not to mention the linens and clothing we now need to replace.  Do yourself a favor and bypass the Estate.  It is a time and money pit.
