How this washer stands out? »
This is a step down from the Bravo XL which makes it much less inferior than the MVWB750YW . Notice on the Bravo XL series the numbers include a ‘B’ prior to the number e.g. MVWB750YW. However on the standard Bravos X, there is just an ‘x’ prior to the number, for example MVWX700AG. The Bravo X is aimed at people wanting a more compact washer, it’s a whole cubit less in capacity than the XL, and 300 rpm less in the spin cycle. The height is 3 inches less than the XL and the depth just half an inch smaller.
Advantages
100 dollars cheaper than cheapest Bravo XL
Comes with Allergen wash cycle which the cheapest XL does not have, you’ll have to pay 200 dollars more to get this Allergen cycle if you want an Xtra Large washer (MVWB850YW)
Stylish granite with stain resistant glass window (none of the XL series have a glass window)
Disadvantages
Not for people who consistently wash large loads
800 rpm max speed won’t dry out the clothes as well as faster machines
$200 more expensive than the cheapest Bravo X (MVWX500XW)
