Steam Clean Option
Get help removing everyday stains with the Steam Clean Option, which gets deep into fabrics with increased wash action and heat.
12-Hour FanFresh® Option
Keep clothes fresh for up to 12 hours after the wash cycle has ended. A built-in fan activates after the wash cycle is over, tumbling clothes for up to 12 hours so you can finish laundry when you're ready.

I've had this machine for two weeks. Still getting familiar with all of the wash choices but love it so far. Best feature is the Load & Go option. Unlike a previous reviewer, this machine is much quieter than my previous 20-year old Whirlpool Washer.

Just set the washer and dryer up, Three kids in. Have them in our upstairs laundry room. Can’t believe how loud they are - the washer especially. As loud, if not louder, than our old maytags. Sending them back - even if I need to pay a restocking fee. Had whirlpools 15 years ago that we’re undercounter in a city aprartment - loved them. Shocked at these units. Especially at this price point.
