1 BAAAAAD design.

When the machine was delivered, the delivery person ran a partial cycle to test for leaks. After he left I discovered a VERY strong fragrance coming form the machine. I assumed that there must be a detergent sample inside the machine? After carefully checking the machine, I was horrified to discover that the fragrance was coming from the rubber gasket. I'm very allergic to most chemically scented products so I contacted the retailer and asked if I could exchange this machine for an unscented one. They said NO because the machine was used... the test cycle. Fortunately our laundry room is in a separate room and I was able to contain the smell to that room by keeping the door closed at all times...but for about 8 months I had to gag on the smell every time I went in there. The second downside was the lack of a "spin only" cycle. All my previous front load machines had one, and it was pretty handy. I managed to work around that and the smell has died down, but NOW...exactly one year and a few days in... the washer won't drain!...and of course the warranty is expired. The problem appears to be a clogged filter. Many front load machines come with a little door on the front at the bottom of the machine, where you can access the filter to clean it yourself. This machine DOES NOT!!! So I U tubed "how to clean the filter on my Electrolux front load washer" and discovered that you practically have to disassemble the whole machine.... remove the top panel, back panel,rubber door gasket, disconnect wiring, disconnect hoses and more.. just to access the filter!??? BAAAAAAD design!!! I considered attempting it myself, but only have some of the tools required ...I don't own a socket wrench...and I'm afraid it may not go back together properly. So now I have to call a repair service and pay to have a filter unclogged. Why would you do this to your customers??? Wish I'd bought a different brand.

5 Love the new washer

I replaced my (17 year old) front load Frigidaire (that finally gave out) with this Electrolux. I love it. It's quiet, gives me loads of options for different types of clothes and everything comes clean. It's the perfect size for small loads or large loads but still fits in my small laundry closet area. I find myself looking for things to wash now, LOL

5 Fabulous

This washer is exceptionally made. I’ve been an avid LG person. However, lately their products have been really horrible. I wanted to try a different brand. I did plenty of research and decided to invest in this washer and matching dryer. Best thing I ever did. People who come into my house say how beautiful they are. I just love them because they wash clothes and I know that they are clean.

5 Best choice

This replace my old washer, which I thought was working just fine although it had a nasty habit of moving all over the floor. My dryer was breaking more often than working, so I decided I wanted to get a new washer as well. Both appliances look beautiful together in my wash room. The most important is that it washes clothing cleaner than I had experienced in a while with my old washer. It doesn’t move all over the floor, is efficient and quiet. I am really happy and enjoy washing again
