Stinky clothes: bc HE detergent is 'green' so it's made with no or little scent, and you use less. And the hair gets knotted up and sticks to everything. I used to get mad at my cat! Must leave washer door open to dry between loads or overnight or bad mold smell, so I'm fighting with cats contantly!. I do a bleachy white load either every other or every second load. Has a 'clean washer' cycle that I haven't used yet. Biggest thing I miss: soaking whites in bleach water. Has a soak cycle, but doesn't dispense bleach until wash cycle. Sounds and feels like you live on the train tracks with jets flying overhead during spin cycle. Spins really fast, except with heavy jeans loads (when you need it most!). Can only wash 4 pair size 46-48 mens jeans, more will not get clean. So you use less dryer time as most clothes are spun dry in the washer. I quit using liquid softener bc it ruins washers and adds to the mold problem. I use dryer softener sheets bc they make the stuck on hair and UFT (unidentified fuzzie things) smell better. It does not make then go away. I am now a leading authority on lint brushes. The washer is not listed as Energy Star compliant, bc the idiots who designed it screwed up. When you power it up, it defaults to hot or warm water for all cycles, so if you want cold you have to change that setting for each and every load. The dryer has a cheapo plastic door clasp (now broken) but dryer still works if you tape the door shut! |

I bought Samsung front load with steam and silver care features, along with the matching steam dryer. The nice thing about the silver care feature is it prevents the moldy musty smell that people complain about in front washers. I use this on towels and heavy stuff ocasionally to rid of the smell-works great on athletic wear as well! Yes, the clothes do take longer to wash(1 hr 15 mins) but they come out amazingly clean and in my thinking-still is quicker than having to re-wash the load again because it didn't come clean the first time. My whites have never been cleaner-especially the stinky soccer socks! The washer is huge-you can pack a ton of clothes in there(it has one of the biggest capacities available). When I was doing my research prior to picking a washer, this one was one of the highest rated. Love the dryer as well, very quick. Love the steam feature-to 'fluff' things up, or take out wrinkles. |
WOW.I bought maytag 6 years ago, and love it. it has worked perfectly. I guess that was before they sold out. |

ok still have not pulled the trigger lolll can you say analysis paralysis - I am so confused lolll any more input as the wee wee pads are piling up lolll now on to disposables lol :eek: |
just learned a few things. LG makes kenmore now and inorder to work on LG you have to be a LG technician so alot of the old appliance repair guys would prefer maytag, whirlpool, etc so they can work on the machines as they have to be certified to work on LG products Maytag was bought buy whirlpool 3 years ago and then they did not do anything until about a year ago so the newer models are built buy whirlpool now with commercial quality parts. They are suppose to be better built now like the old Maytag's were since whirlpool now owns them Also read in consumer reports that alot of people are going back to top loads :( but when i go to places they say 80% buy front loand and 20% top load still looking and trying to narrow down. also some have plastic in the area where the water drains off the rubber and no lip so helps with the mildew issue just curious though if they know they are too low and have to sell risers for the frontloads why do they just not make them taller ? Why do consumers have to pay 190-220 for a riser lolllll |
I do like the front load, I always keep the door open or it will get smelly. I recently changed from whirlpool over to kenmore because of my dryer fire. I am very happy with the kenmore |

sooooooooo frustrated ok i pulled the trigger last monday night bought the maytag centennial from sears with warranty etc - bougt it as sales girl has been there for 28 years and swore by this one it is not the one with the stainless steel drum the one right below it. I bought the washer and dryer to match and did not really need dryer yet - NOW THE DRYER squeaks, and makes loud popping noise. I had service come out check everything and they cannot get rid of squeak. He said the popping noise is normal for all dryers now as the valve opens and shuts for gas. I am so irritated and i can return up to 90 days all my money back at sears but are all the dryers like this now? I guess they do not insulate them or something. The washer is working great. They said these are commercial grade so good quality and whirlpool is making these. My client is an appliance repair guy and said return it and go to best buy and get the whirlpool :( Sears does not have a good line of whirlpool only two models and not the one i want HELP do your dryers snap crackle pop or squeak as the drum goes around :( I have not bought a washer and dryer for 15 years i believe if not even longer than that - i hate shopping for appliances |

If your machine is making that much noise operating, I would be concerned. |
