Excellent Machine!

by skids929 , Mar 19 '06
Pros: Excellent cleaning ability, good looks, well-priced.
Cons: Can be tricky to level with pedestals, Vibrates more than toploaders.
I recently purchased the Frigidaire GLTF2940E as a set with the dryer. So far it has been an absolute pleasure compared to the machines we replaced. I will start with the look, then the performance, and then talk about installation. Also, be sure to read ...

I got the Lowes version, LTF2940ES

by dnhoshor , May 15 '06
Pros: Uses less water, clothes come out drier, lower price than most front loaders.
Cons: Soap, bleach, softener drawer has a concealed latch. It takes getting used to it.
The Lowes version of the Frigidaire GLTF2940ES appears to be the same washer with the possible exception of an added lint filter. The Lowes version list a lint filter, the standard Frigidaire model doesn't. There may be a couple of differences in the ...

Great Investment!

by lawram , Nov 25 '06
Pros: Energy and water savings, softer clothes, attractive model, quiet operation
Cons: trouble with door
Extensive research led me to this model, with Energy Star and water conservation being priorities. I checked rpm for every machine's spin, gallons of water and kilowatts per load, features like auto water levels, sound...everything. This LTF2940ES from ...

Great Machine - Great Price

by g33kgurli , Jul 23 '07
Pros: Price, effectiveness, wash cycle selection
Cons: None
We've owned this machine for a few months now and I have absolutely nothing to complain about. I believe that other reviewers were commenting on how it leaves behind water in the door gasket - but the new machine I bought in May doesn't have this problem ...

A good buy.

by nimh_rat , Oct 03 '06
Pros: Efficient. Low wrinkling of clothes. Fast dry time.
Cons: As compared to higher priced brands the doors could be sturdier.
We've owned our set (washer GLTF2940ES and dryer GLGQ2152ES) for over a year now and would recommend these washers to family members. Likes We like the compact size of the set without the compromise of the benefits of a front ...

Love this machine

by snacktime , Oct 31 '06
Pros: Cleans clothes, is not very noisy, looks great
Cons: None so far
I've had my washer for about 9 months now and am very satisfied with its performance. We followed the installation instructions to the letter which I think is really important, because if the machine is not level it will rattle considerably. Once ...

You get what you pay for.

by dowdios , Jul 31 '08
Pros: Large capacity, easy to use.
Cons: Cheaply made, broke 3 times, VERY loud spin cycle, hard to keep clean.
We bought this machine in February of 2006 because, compared to other front loaders, it was a great bargain and it seemed to be just what we needed. It was large and we have a family of 5 so we needed something that was energy star compliant, water ...

I Love This Overlooked Machine

by klhamilton , Jan 09 '06
Pros: Attractive, compact, quiet, direct drive (no belt) drum, affordable.
Cons: Occasionally clean water in door seal to prevent musty odors and mildew.
I am an internet consumer review junkie and always consider other opinions before purchasing products...especially major appliances. I decided to replace my 7-year old repair prone Kenmore set with front loaders mainly for (water) efficiency. I wasn't ...

Love it but......

by jimeleason , Jan 18 '06
Pros: Price, cleans well, spins clothes out well
Cons: Cheaply made, questionable reliability.
I purchased the GLTF2940 on 12/7/05 after extensive research. ALL independent appliance repair men I spoke to told me DO NOT get a front loader. They are very trouble prone I was told. After reading many reviews and seeing the poor to so so reviews on ...

Don't believe the negative. A terrific product.

by tgbradford , Sep 15 '06
Pros: Excellent price, quiet, washes well
Cons: None so far
I almost got scared off from buying this machine and it would have been a big mistake. We've probably washed and dried 50 loads and it is everything advertised. It is quiet, vibration free, there is NO mold odor or buildup in the door gasket. The ...

by bullbaer , Apr 21 '06
Pros: cleans great,Semi quiet,Dries well,Price
Cons: have not seen any yet
I spent an average amount of time doing research on different front loaders from bosch to whirlpool. I settled on a Frigidaire. So far it has been great. I did notice that pretty much all washers have good and bad reviews. I have washed several loads ...

A real lemon

by gr8danelover , Sep 20 '05
Pros: Large capacity and lots of cycles - if it worked
Cons: Non-existent customer service
After looking at several front-load washers in several price ranges, I purchased the Frigidaire 2940ES. I knew I wanted a front loader for water and energy efficiency, capacity and gentle cleaning. This Frigidaire had a decent capacity (3.5 cf), and ...

Great. Ranked 3rd out of 19 Front washers by consumerreports.org

by albator , Mar 26 '06
Pros: Ranked very well by ConsumerReports.org. Saved few hundred dollars.
Cons: cheap hoses for cold/hot water.
I did some extensive research on front load washers. Out of around 15 front load washers review by Consumer Reports, 2 were ranked no 1 with a rating of 79, followed by the frigidaire GLTF2940ES with a rating of 78. The frigidaire is between 300$ to 500$ ...

Bad Vibrations

by mrs_rad , Dec 13 '06
Pros: Initially, the price & range of cycles. Attractive & energy efficient.
Cons: Earthquake-like effect during spin cycle, uneven door, musty odor from water remaining in door seal.
I am relieved to find that I am not the only one with washer shake issues, as Frigidaire/Electrolux customer service claims that the construction of my house is the problem: a frame house!? From day one, this washer vibrated uncontrollably and made my ...
