    Ooo, the new washing machine looks so nice!! 😍🙌🏻 I actually love doing laundry, so that’s so exciting 🫢 I hate when laundry turns out all crunchy, so I would’ve re-washed all that too🤣 The 30-minute quick wash looked great 😍🙌🏻 So nice that not too much water was still in there at the end 😄 Can’t wait to see the dryer! 🫢

    I purchased this washer 3 years ago and had it serviced three times in one month. I've had nothing but trouble trying to use it. I have the home heating protection plan and they're working with me as mush as they can. From some of the comments about this washer , it's clear, it's a factory defect and Lowe's should stop selling them. No one should have to consider replacing a washer that was purchase new three years ago(.2021).

It replaces a washer I had for 16 years, but I doubt this one will last through the warranty. You mentioned a hassle with Lowes. I'll spare you the details of what I went through with them due to their using 3rd party delivers.

    Press the FAUCET button for more water. You have to be able to catch it while it's filling up to add the extra water on the faucet feature. It's a royal pain in the butt but at least I do have the option of adding water, whereas the old one that I had did not have that option. I hate energy star washers!!!
