LockedNEED advise on FRONT LOAD WASHER

posted on February 10, 2010 at 07:28PM Inappropriate?

I am in DESPERATE need of a NEW WASHER! I have tried to "research" front loaders... the better ones, the top rated ones, the "don't buy" ones... and I am even more confused than ever!! I want to "upgrade" from my top loader! I am the mother of 3 boys, three TEEN-AGED BOYS and a husband that works 2 jobs. ( that means I have a lot of laundry) I wash almost every single day! Tons of towels, socks, jeans, sports uniforms, but I also need a washer that won't "eat" up MY more gentle clothes (skirts, slips, gowns, etc...) I'd like to keep my spending budget under $900. (including extended warranty) I have tried to go buy the "star" ratings in the Sears website, but if you and your friend and neighbor swear by a particular ONE, please share it with me!! I need to purchase one, like yesterday! Thanks

I am sure a few other members will chime in on this one, Mickey1409!  You may want to do a search on the site, too, for older threads on this same subject.  Just type "best washer" to the discussion search bar.

Here is a good one to get you started:

Hi Mickey1409,

Have you had any luck with your research yet?

Given your budget, you might want to consider the Samsung WF219ANW. With 4.0 cubic foot capacity, you can fit the equivalent of 23 bath towels or a king-size comforter in each load. The WF219 has a built-in hot water heater, so you can sanitize your sons' clothes, get stains out of your husband's shirts and keep your whites white. The direct drive motor is quiet and durable - you'll never have to replace a worn-out belt, because Samsung washers don't use a belt-drive system. Best of all, Samsung's signature Vibration Reduction Technology significantly reduces noise and vibration, so you can do your laundry without shaking the house, even if your laundry room is upstairs.

With the President's Week sale pricing, the WF219ANW plus a 5-year protection plan appears to be within your budget. Just type WF219ANW into the search bar.

Good luck!

- Ms. Samsung
