    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).

    Hey! I'm curious if your new washer has spots on the bottom of the drum that looks like the porcelain has been chipped off in a couple spots? I bought 2 of these same washers and both of them had a couple small chips in it. Basically in the same spot!

    Thanks for the video. I got the identical washer about 10 days ago. When washing towels or sheets, the tub vibrates like crazy. 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.

I also don't like that when i use liquid detergent (the pods kept getting stuck to clothes and basically melting on to them), you can't rinse the cup out because the water won't run while the lid is open. Anyone else using liquid detergent have same problem?
