What is Perfect Steam and what does it do?

Perfect Steam releases steam from the bottom of the drum to lift dirt and stains from fibers before and during the wash. It is used with stain-heavy loads and adds time to the cycle.

Can I use detergent pods in this washer?

Yes. The Adaptive Dispenser is designed to accept detergent PODS, along with liquid or powder detergent.

It is a 4.5 cu ft front-load drum, which fits a large family load such as a queen comforter.

What is the 18-minute fast wash for?

It is a short cycle for quickly deep cleaning lightly soiled items. It is not meant for heavy stains, which need StainTreat or Solid Soil.

Does it have a steam refresh cycle for clothes?

Perfect Steam is used within wash cycles to treat stains rather than as a separate dry-clothes refresher. Check the cycle list for the steam options on this model.

How does it compare with LG and Samsung front loaders?

It matches their steam and stain options and adds a pod-friendly dispenser, but most LG and Samsung models offer more specialty cycles and smart app features.
