- Is this washer good for large families?
- Yes. The 5.0 cu. ft. drum is among the larger front-load capacities and fits king-size bedding and bulky loads. It suits households that run several loads a week.
- Does it have an agitator?
- No. It uses an impeller with a direct drive motor. That is gentler on fabrics but gives less mechanical scrubbing than an agitator, so pretreat heavy stains.
- What does FanFresh do?
- After the wash, the drum tumbles and the FreshFlow vent circulates air to keep clothes fresher if you cannot move them to the dryer right away. It is not a dryer.
- Is it Energy Star certified?
- Yes. Estimated annual electricity use is about 140 kWh, and it is a high-efficiency machine, so use HE detergent.
- How big is it?
- It is 27 in wide, 39 in high and 33-1/4 in deep. Measure your space and door swing before buying.
