Pros: Huge 4.5 cubic foot tub, Energy Star rated - reduces water and electric usage.
Cons: Kind of pricey, ul code - "Unbalanced Load" occurs at times
Summary: After over 13 years of use, our old Maytag washer which was unbelievably dependable finally gave it up. Without a washer, we didn't have the luxury of obsessing over our decision for a long time. After checking out a lot of options, we ended up with the ... read more

Cons: Always wrinkled clothes and sheets; cycles very long; clothes don't get clean

Pros: Looks pretty, plays a cute song when cycle is done, glass top
Cons: Doesn't get clothes clean, error codes, bearings break quickly and easily which leads to flooding
Summary: I bought this washer because I wanted a large capacity washer that didn't have an agitator, and I've had it three years. I was convinced that the new technology and cool design meant I would have a great machine, and I was excited about the glass top and ... read more

Pros: The set looks real nice in the laundry room.
Cons: Even if it didn't require expensive repairs the jeans still come out a wrinkled mess!
Summary: Even before it started breaking I was never happy with the way the laundry came out. I selected this washer because it was supposed to be able to wash a lot of jeans in one load. You cannot put in more than 3 pair of jeans at a time, and you ... read more

Pros: Clean clothes
Smart design (with exceptions noted)
Fun, easy to use
Cons: Wads up bulky/many clothes, difficult to correct
Glass door option rip off
No surge protector
Summary: Dec 2006 - Apr 2009 only one big problem. The lack of an agitator (considered to be otherwise an asset in this washing design system) allows bulky sheets & even bath towels to BALL UP, thereafter beat the hell out of its insides upon spin - a ... read more

Cons: not as good with super big/small loads, fast spin wrinkles shirts & pants
Summary: We bought this over a year ago. I'll state up front that many of the problems, if not most, that people here are having is because they aren't using their common sense. While there were some actual mechanical failures, most of the complaints ... read more

Pros: Large Capacity
Cons: RPS Sensor is a common problem with this model. DO NOT BUY THIS MACHINE!!!

Pros: Gets clothes cleaner, energy efficient, extra large capacity, attractive.
Cons: Cycles are long, gets off balance by bulky, heavy loads.
Summary: We purchased the Cabrio in Sept. 2006, after our old trusty Kenmore bit the dust. I researched several machines before I decided on this one. I chose it for its extra large capacity, its efficient water use, the many different wash cycles, and its ... read more
