Is this washer big enough for a king size quilt and 2 shams?

To wash a king-sized comforter, you will need a washer with a drum capacity of at least 5.0 cubic feet. Quilts are thinner and not as bulky as comforters, so the ENERGY STAR® Certified LG Extra Large Impeller Top-Load Washer ( Alpine White ), Model # WT8200CW. Shams come in different sizes to fit various types of pillows. Depending on the size of your shams, the washer may or may not be able to accommodate a king-size quilt and two shams. The washer can be fully loaded, but the tub should not be tightly packed with items. The lid of the washer should close easily. Your quilt and shams should fit loosely in the tub under the maximum fill line. Loading them over the fill line may result in damage to them and the washer. Do not press down on items while stacking them in the tub. Load them loosely, and do not overfill the tub. They need room to circulate in order to get clean...^Ivan.
