5.0 out of 5 stars
Great washer for the money,
I had a very cheap washer that lasted for 5 years. When it broke down, rather than considering spending $50 just to have someone look at it, I decided to buy a new one.
I wanted a front-loading washer because they are gentler on clothes and use less water. However, after looking at some, I realized they were mostly pretty expensive. I did a lot of research and Consumer Reports rated this washer as the best I could hope to get for the price. Finally after much shopping, I found a white one online and ordered it. I installed it myself in about 10 minutes and started washing. We've now owned it for 4 or 5 months and I love it. It is very easy to run, very stable and operates flawlessly. I have washed all sorts of things in it and have never had a single problem. We have this in our kitchen-area right off the living room and, while it is a little bit noisy, it is much quieter than the other standard machine I had. The one thing I've been a little trepidatious about is the detergent drawer which feels sort of cheaply made and ill-fitting. However, I've been careful with it and have learned how to use it and it really isn't that bad. Don't let that sway you from purchasing this machine. I really think you can't get anything better for your money. Even machines that cost over 2x didn't have the performance rating this one had.

Don't even think of buying Frigidaire!!,
This review is from: Frigidaire GLTF2940FS 14 Cycle Front Load Washera
Frigidaire has been making defective front loaders for over a decade with no end in sight, and refuses to acknowledge it's defective design. There's an aluminum spider casting inside the plastic drum that corrodes to failure within 3-5 years. Frigidaire: "too bad" They warranty the stainless drum for 25 years but not the casting that holds it! And if the spider doesn't fail, the bearings holding it do because of a bad seal design.
My washer died of this spider cracking along with countless thousands of others. If this was a car there would have been a recall. For more tons info before you buy a Frigidaire (also sold as Kenmores) just do a search for "Why Kenmore Front Loading Washers Fail" or SPIDER DRUM FRIGIDAIRE CORROSION.

Great washer for the price,
By This washer is comparable to the Kenmore/Whirlpool front loader, and is less than half the price. In one respect it's actually better. The Kenmore/Whirlpool was known for spinning the clothes so hard that they came out in a wrinkled tangled mess. I don't have that problem with the Frigidaire. It's also stackable - and fits into the same space that the old fashioned "thin twin" stackable does. I also agree that the detergeant/softner/bleach dispenser looks really cheap - like a bad knock-off of the one in the Kenmore/Whirlpool. But it functions just fine - so it's really a non issue.
