Product review (5 stars): very pleased so far
so far i love this machine but i have only had it a few months.  only have personal laundry, not enough for regular washer I used when family was here.  think this will save money.  there are 2 glitches, one is that it has an overflow in the wash tub and the other is the washtub does not come all the way to the top.  water spills all over the floor if you are not careful.  bathtub calk solved both these problems. laundry tub does not hold a lot of clothes per load, but enough for me.  spin basket is very small and you must be careful the load is balanced but it gets it dry enough for a clothes dryer.  my water comes from a cistern so this is a great water saver.  i wash most loads in same water and only have to change the rinse water if it gets too soapy.  then everything gets a second rinse.  everything comes out so clean and soft.  it is a little more work than an automatic but the savings are worth it.  the pump is almost useless but if you have a floor drain or shower it will work just fine.
