The sheets and bulky cycle use more water, than the normal cycle. If I have large load of jeans, I wash them using either the sheets or bulky cycle. The only cycles I haven't used yet are the heavy duty, whitest whites, colors, and delicates.
Matthew, it's a nice dryer. I think it's a MOL. The capacity of the dryer is smaller than that of the washer, but I don't really wash super large loads, so I think I will be fine.
i kow it senses the load but i was just wondering because here in SA all our digital top loaders sense but there is still a water level button if you want to set it yourself or just add a little more water
