Author's Review
We bought this set a few months ago and could not be happier with it. IF you are doing a search for it, the full model is ATF7000FG. Paired with the matching dryer, life got a little bit easier around here.
First of all, the stacking feature on this set is priceless! Stacking saves you money because the stands are expensive, but the real value is in the space saved. IF your house is like ours, the laundry room is the catch all room. By stacking these bad boys, we were able to add a TON of priceless "drop" space for coats and diaper bags and the like. SO HAPPY!
THe washer has several great settings with preselected spin velocities, water temps, stain level and even options for extra rinse cycle. It is amazing. You can do your HAND WASH items on a super delicate cycle that just barely spins them out or you can spin your heavy duties so hard they don't even feel wet to the touch! You will not believe how dry a washer can get your clothes!!
This machine uses only a few gallons of water and still manages to get your clothes twice as clean. There is even a sanitizing cycle which is awesome if you have pet beds to wash---just cram them in there--if you can close the door, it's not too full. The drawer for products add your detergent, fabric softener and bleach at the perfect time.
I can now do the whole weeks laundry for a family of 4 in about 5 hours. One load darks, one load towels, one load whites, one load all of the bedding at once. I pack it full and it gets cleaner than ever before. Drying time is reduced by half because of the efficiency of the spin cycle. You can delay the wash start for hours if you want, but this machine is so quiet that you really don't care if it is running while you are enteraining.
If you should get one, take the manual's advice and leave the door open to let the rubber seal dry out. It really will stay wet in there for days and who needs that.
You will not be disappointed with this. IT is a great value not only for the price, but for the time and water saved.
ALso, Tide now makes a "free" (as in no colors, perfumes) in H.E. which was not available before and is great for kids or those with sensative skin.
