Product review (5 stars): Very Good Washer
This washer is very quiet IF you set it level the way it is intended to be by design.  It does a good job with getting your clothes clean and takes a lot of the water out, which helps the dryer.  It is energy and water efficient.  It has a lot of options but not so many as to be overwhelming.  If it last me ten years like my last Whirlpool and save me 10 bucks a month, I will come out ahead.  I cannot say much about reliability as I have not used it long enough.  If you can get the pedestal, do because it makes leveling the feet easy (with the drawer removed) and looks good too.
