Smooth Impeller Option
Easily remove the industry-first 2 in 1 Removable Agitator when your load needs a little more space to move. Impeller wash action cleans by rubbing the fabrics against each other, while the design of the impeller's surface helps drive clothes from the outer rim to the center, where the deepest cleaning happens.

Clean Washer with affresh Cycle
Run the Clean Washer with affresh Cycle every 30 washes with an affresh washing machine cleaner tablet or liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the inside of your washer.

Smooth Spiral Stainless Steel Wash Basket
Help protect fabrics with this stainless steel wash basket that gently guides clothes during the wash.

Lid Lock

Customers Say

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

This top-load washer combines practical functionality with modern features, though it comes with some notable trade-offs. The spacious 4.8 cu. ft. drum handles large family loads and bulky items like king comforters, while the innovative removable agitator offers welcome flexibility for different laundry needs. Cleaning performance is generally good, especially with the agitator installed, though the sensor-based water levels may leave some wanting more manual control. The glass lid adds convenient visibility, but the basic control panel and longer cycle times require some adjustment. While the spin cycle effectively removes water, operational noise is noticeable, and the lack of built-in dispensers means manual product addition. It's a capable machine that requires some compromise between modern efficiency and traditional washing preferences.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Happy with Purchase [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this about a month ago. Very nice features.
Date published: 2026-03-14
Rated 5 out of 5 by from It’s only been a week but I love it! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My 25-year-old washer finally died completely. This has been a great replacement. It’s only been a week, but I’ve been playing catchup with our laundry and it’s been up to the task. Easy to operate. Louder than my old one, but since it’s in the basement it’s not bad. Taking the agitator out is gentler on my clothes, and gives more room. Saw some complaints about this type of washer not filling up enough and having dry clothes, but I haven’t found this to be the case at all. The faucet is great to rinse something but it’s awkward to have to reach behind the lid to turn it off and on. Plenty of options that I haven’t had to use yet, but the soak, drain, and heavy load options will be useful. Clothes definitely seem cleaner and more spun out than with my old washer. Price was good for the functionality.

how often does the sensor go out

Asked by: Johnson
I don’t think it’s ever gone out. My problem is I’m 78 yrs old and not especially good with computer technology. I was not provided with a manual to show me all the features and how to use them. Very frustrating.
