Recommend your Front Load Washer/Dryer...
We are leaving our washer/dryer with the old townhouse, so we need to buy a new set as soon as we move this weekend. I would like to get Front Loaders but I'm afraid I'm going to spend all that money and they're going to be awful.
They all seem to have bad reviews -- especially from people who have owned them for at least 6-12 months. So far we've probably found the best reviews for Electrolux, but I'm still not sold. It's so much money -- especially when my current top loader works perfectly well.
Does anyone have a set they love?
Re: Recommend your Front Load Washer/Dryer...
Have had our Frigidaires for almost 2.5 years. They were one of the cheapest options for front loaders at Lowe's. I like them because they are not totally digital. They still have knobs, so if the lights go out (they haven't yet), I can still use them without any maintenance.
The only downside for us is that they live in our shed outside so we get some mildew that needs to be cleaned every now and then due to the awful climate here.
They are amazing though. I bought an economy size detergent that we have had well I over a year. We wash the kiddo's diapers in three every day, so they get tons of use.
I have a Whirlpool front load washer and dryer. Love them both. We've had them about a year and have had no problems at all.
The front loaders seem to use less water and soap. I also love that because the washer uses less water the stuff isn't soaking when it comes out so it takes less time to dry.
You do have to make sure to leave the washer door open when not in use because they don't dry well inside and make sure you clean it monthly (or whatever your guide recommends) to make sure it stays clean and all. My mom's was smelling funky and she wasn't doing the cleaning cycle and the service guy said that really helps. My cleaning cycle involves using some bleach and turning the knob to clean. So easy.
Nope they just sit on the floor in our shed. We are not ever in there while they are on so idk if they shake around, but they're always in the same place do I guess not.
