Know before you buy
The AI technology automatically detects the weight and fabric softness of your load to select the optimal wash motions and cycle settings. This helps ensure your clothes are cleaned effectively while reducing the risk of fabric damage.
Yes, the 5.0 cu. ft. mega capacity drum is specifically designed to accommodate bulky items like king-size comforters and large bedding sets with ease.
The SideKick™ is a secondary, smaller washer located in the pedestal beneath the main unit. It is designed to run simultaneously with the main washer, allowing you to tackle small, specialized loads—like delicates or workout gear—without needing a full cycle.
No, the washer operates on a standard 120V, 60Hz, 10A power source. However, please ensure your laundry area is equipped with the proper plumbing and venting requirements for a full-size front-load unit.
TurboWash® 360° is designed to clean large loads in under 30 minutes by using powerful spray nozzles. While it is excellent for efficiency, for heavily soiled items, you may still want to utilize the Heavy Duty or Sanitize cycles for a deeper clean.
The Allergiene® cycle uses steam to gently but effectively remove up to 99.9% of common allergens, such as dust mites and pet dander, from fabrics. It is a great option for bedding and clothing if you or your family members suffer from sensitivities.
