We have this washing machine in our apartment which means unfortunately we don't have any other option when it comes to washing our clothes. Let me start by saying, it's terrible. It's energy efficient therefore it doesn't use much water which means clothes such as gym kit, my 18month year old son's clothes continually smell of mildew. I have to actually put them on a sanitary setting to remove any bad smells which is way too hot for clothes, it's ludicrous. I actually can't wait until we move so I can start using a regular washing machine again. Do not buy if you want fresh smelling clothes!!
