Great Washer, May 15, 2007
I have owned this washer for about 6 months and have had no real problems with it. It can vibrate quite a bit when it is in its spin cycle, but that may be because the floor in the apartment we're renting is not level. All our clothes come out very clean.

Beware of bargains, April 15, 2008
Beware the bargain. We own a two-family home and are now on our 2nd set of washing machines (one for us, one for the tenants) in seven years. Both of our first machines developed serious problems within about six years. These troubles (a leak in one, a bearing issue in another) were too expensive to fix given the purchase price of a new model. If you aren't worried about longevity, this might be the model for you.
Noise and vibration are an issue, but tolerable. Clothes do get clean...I can't say I noticed much of a difference between the Frigidaire and Whirlpool Duet I used while on vacation recently...at least when it came to cleaning power.

Junk & HUGE waste of Money....., January 16, 2008
After I moved into my New apt. and had to pay for my water for 1st time I decided to buy a Brand New Washer & Dryer set,at the time I had a little X-tra money and seeing I was going to be on a Fixed Income now that it might be a good idea,washers & Dryers usually last at least 10 years or so and it was an Energy Star,save more money and being a single mom this was good.
Well things went well for awhile the washer cleaned well and spun so much water out they took no time at all to dry esp. in my New Matching Dryer,then one day I goto check my wash and find my Basement is Flooded & water is Comming out the Front Door of this Washer,so I run to shut it off,and clean up the water that I have to Pay for,then we try again and yep it still is leaking out and I end up having to call a Repair Guy,he comes and finds the problem but doesn't carry the needed part but charges me about 60.00,I order the part & Install myself to save a few bucks and it works fine,for awhile anyway...
A few months latter Again we have the Flow of Water out the Front Door of the washer but no real reason for it,and again I have to clean up water all over the Basement & then it seems to be fine and working.So a few months latter I throw in a load of laundry and when it was done I went to get it,well I can't seem to get the Washer Door Open and Nothing I did would get it to Open it's holding my wash Hostage and I was SO MAD Now What? I looked,I fiddled,I even called my electrician friend to see if he could by pass a switch or something but Nope that didn't work & I just didn't have the money to get the repair guy over again so I left the wash in there,either that or I break the door to get my wash & I allready wasted enough I felt,thank goodness I still had my old washer to use.
Not long after washer Nightmare I went to dry my wash and the Dryer was making a Horrible noise,so I look around inside mabey it's change or something,Nope,I was afraid to use it,it sounded that Bad.So after going to the laundromat a few times I said this is Stupid,so I went & took the Dryer apart to see if I could see anything,well let me warn you if U ever need to look inside yours be Carfull it's Super Sharp inside,guess they couldn't bother to grind the sharp edges,my son ran & got me a couple Band-Aids & I kept going,I didn't see anything wrong and put it all back together,the noise isn't as bad as before so I'm just gonna keep using it as long as I can unless I find a new affordable set.
I only used the "Set" for around 2 years & Less before I started having problems with Washer.
When they say it's Energy Efficient there Not Lying esp. when the washer uses No Electricity when it's Not Plugged In/Working & Great on Water esp. when it's no longer hooked-up!!
I wish I had the X-Tra 400.00 for extended Warranty but I could've bought a brand new one for that much.
For Sale Energy King,Queen: Broken Fairly New Washer/Dryer Set,Excellent on Water & Elect. Kidding....
