What is your favorite front load washer and dryer and why?

Question

I'm looking to replace my old set which is a top load, and I would love a front load super capacity washer and dryer. I don't really know what brands are best anymore and what features I should look for (I've never bought them before). I have used the Maytag Neptune and was pleased with it, though I was told LG is awesome.

Thoughts, opinions, and product reviews are much appreciated!

Please and thank you!

Answer 1

Maytag have a tendency to collect water in the front seal and start smelling like mildew over time. I would check the ratings at www.consumerreports.org and check them out. I know a few people who own Bosch and love them. The miele are fantastic machines but very expensive. Asko makes a good front loading washer too. For best bang for the buck, the kenmore brands are good and the return/warranty policy is worth alot in case you run into problems. With other dealers, they will keep coming out to fix it no matter how many problems you have. With sears, I believe they have a 3X policy. If the machine has more than 3 service issues, you get a new one. Double check that because its been some time since I have dealt with them.
