Over all I line the washer, but it did not have a setting for delicate cycle. I will have to figure it out.

If you have vision issues I would not recommend
Would Not RecommendAlthough I feel the washer is comparable to the 5.5 cu LG we bought 5 years ago of like-for-like size, LG has gone too far with reliance on a smart phone and downloading routines to get the settings one has had hard wired into washers for the 50 years I’ve been using one; e.g., delicates and any number of other previously standard hard wired settings. They have an AI setting which is marketing nonsense (just your standard sensor). I like the stream-lined bleach reservoir (no plastic insert that’...

disappointed
Would Not RecommendPurchased this washer online for my daughter, was looking for a machine with a large capacity for a large household and one that could handle comforters. This machine does have the capacity but I am sorry that I did not notice that the top of this machine and it's companion dryer has a top that slants downward therefore making it unusable in regard to sorting and folding laundry on the top of these machines as everything slides right off. In my opinion a ridiculous design flaw, who doesn't use t...

This is not for a family with kids
Would Not RecommendYes it's big. Looks nice. Family of 6. Got it shipped to home for: $914. Very quiet. Cons: I really wish I had purchased the agitator model. I can't tell you how many minutes(hours) I've stood in front of this washer looking to see how well the clothes are agitated since it only has an impeller. The technology is different, therefore the cleaning method is different. I can 100% say that I've had a few loads of clothes where there has ben an article of clothing on top that never got rotated int...

Overall a great investment!
Would RecommendThis is my 2nd impeller washing machine. I used my first machine until it rusted beyond repair. This new machine is rust resistant and has every function that I wanted (rinse cycle, quick cycle, load sensing, deep clean, and much more). I researched it on consumer reports and found that it had a great performance rating. I've had the machine for a month and I love how fresh my clothes are after each wash. The machine is made to wash bigger loads. I have no issues with my big loads (blankets, com...

Quiet and water efficient
Would RecommendIt is quiet and operates smoothly with less water than the 25-year-old top load agitator washer that it replaced.

Faster than the average Washer!
This machine is much faster than the posted times and it looks like it's doing a great job. So far no complaints on it's cleaning ability. However, when the soap dispenser tray is open, it cuts the top loading capacity in half as it opens out over the loading area much farther than previous models.
