Washer Highlights »

Interior Features With its wash basket made of stainless steel, many say this type of material is the most durable and best available in the market today. Its paint finish does not chip and it does not rust, so there are no debris being transfered to clothes and the possibility of causing stains to laundry items is zero. Its 3.6 cubic feet capacity is definitely a cut above the usual load capacities of washers these days. Equipped with an automatic bleach and fabric softener dispenser, these washing implements can be preloaded into the trays of the dispenser and they are automatically released at the proper time when the wasing cycle is already underway. This definitely saves you from getting your hands messy with bleach and fabric softener, plus you won't need to do guesswork on how much of these you'll need to put into your laundry. Exterior Features The controls, buttons and knobs needed to get the washer in motion are neatly arranged in a control panel located behind the loading door. Speaking of the control panel, it is equipped with an LED display that gives you all the information you would need about the current goings-on in the washer, including cycle time remaining and other options chosen. The cool and classic white exterior and the design of the entire washer is something easily adaptable to the design of the room it will be placed in. This makes it easy for you to place it almost anywhere in the kitchen or laundry area.
