5.0 out of 5 stars Great washer for the money, July 21, 2008

By	C. L. Swearingen - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

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.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great washer for the price, December 6, 2008

By	K. Dixon (Ca.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this washer as part of a set a couple of months ago. I had to downsize because my Kenmore He3/Whirlpool Duet would not fit in the townhouse I moved into.
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.

2.0 out of 5 stars woudn't buy again, July 29, 2009

By	A Gordon - See all my reviews

This set does a nice wash and dry job, but water collects in the rubber gasket around the door and creates an odor unless the door is left open or it is hand dryed after each wash. Also, small items like socks get caught there and end up soaking wet at the end of the wash. The dryer has a nice "shrink guard" feature, but the lint screen doesn't capture all of the lint and it falls into the cavity below which is impossible to clean. I'd spend a little more money for a set designed with a little more forethought next time I buy.
