Excellent – Fantastic machine for a family. Can throw s sets of sheets and pillow cases and five shirts in at one time and it has no problem washing. Highly recommeded I love this machine, its quiet and I can throw a huge load of washing into it. You can vary the spin cycle from 660 to 1200 to suit all your needs. Many different functions available. The gentle cycle washes very, very gently, sometimes does not get the collars etc, but perhaps wrong cycle has been chosen.
