Really does a nice job. Well balanced.

I like the LG sidekick. It's something different from the other washer videos I've seen

I really wish I had a speed queen hard mount like u do lol. 40lb capacity is nice size. Hopefully u get it hooked up soon so we can see full cycle vids on it

Could the sidekick be used as main washer for single person. With mini dryer on top. I heard you say that it needs weight on top for vibration.

Excellent video. Thanks for sharing 😊

very quiet at first.. nice...does it vibrate less when it's spinning with the cover closed and it under the drawer? wondering about the noise level when it's closed? It's nice to see it working with the lid open though. Thanks for the video.

Did a great job!

I think you should put the Calypso in place of the Miele once it's sold. If you can find one. Try to get yourself a Maytag Neptune TL or a Fisher&Paykel Aquasmart. That thing has the fastest turnover of an Impeller I have seen. Even faster than the Kenmore Elite Oasis.

update: here's how everything went. LG sold, Miele sold, I still have the direct drive and calypso. Miele was replaced by a stacked LG 24" wide set, with a condenser dryer. Direct drive was replaced by another LG Front load set, but it's the 6700 series. And the original LG was replaced by the speed queen hardmount.

@@dregenius the reason why they've been using that design for so many years is that it WORKS. People complain that companies "fix" things that work fine yada yada. That dryer system has worked so well that they haven't stopped using it. In my eyes that is quality, and it's smart. True but some features are new even if the base is 60+ years old. such as the electronic controls. A lot of companies do that though. Ford will use the same F150 powertrain, frame, and body for 6+ years and make changes to the grille, headlights, and dashboard just to say it's "new"
