    Not for everyone
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great size. Looks good. Too economical for me. I value thorough washing and rinsing of clothes as much as economy. Working okay but doing 95% of loads as Heavy duty and never use eco rinse cycle. Like wash action but doesn't run for long enough.

    Top Wash
    Love that it is reasonably quiet, it takes a good load without going out of balance, but I am disappointed that the clothes come out very wrinkly and require ironing which hasn’t been necessary before, even pillow cases.
