How does the UltraFresh Vent System work?

It runs a venting cycle that circulates air through the drum after washing to help dry it out and reduce odor. It works alongside Microban antimicrobial protection on the gasket and dispenser.

Does it fit under a counter or in a closet?

It is 39.75 inches high, 28 wide and 32 deep, with a true 32-inch closet depth. It can be installed undercounter, stacked, side-by-side or on a pedestal.

Can I stack it with a dryer?

Yes, with the optional stacking kit. The pedestal, riser and fill hose are also sold separately.

What does the Sanitize with Oxi cycle do?

It uses an Oxi additive with a sanitizing cycle to clean heavily soiled items like towels and bedding. It is meant for loads where germ reduction matters.

Do I need the SmartHQ app to use it?

No. The washer runs from its controls; the app adds remote start and cycle notifications over WiFi.

Is it good for a family?

The 4.8 cu. ft. drum and sanitize cycle suit families with large weekly loads. The main trade-off is longer cycle times.
