Troy, all the Haier machines I own except for one have buzzers at the end of the cycle. If you like the musical signal, the AVANTI W797 and W798 (built by Haier) play "YANKEE DOODLE" when the machine finishes. Some of my Haiers have cheap stainless steel tubs, and some have plastic tubs. The GENESIS has a good quality steel tub. As far as wheels--yes, I guess you could say the portable Haiers have them, for what they're worth. They only move in a North/South direction (no swivel) and are useless on carpet. I move them around easily with cheap $5.00/set furniture SLIDERS (those plastic plates that go one under each "wheel"). As far as the overall quality of the Haier machines-I've never had one fail me yet, and I've had some of these machines about 4 years now. They don't get daily workouts, but they've been put to the test on occasion. I think they need the GOODHOUSEKEEPING seal on them!
