I like it with the lid open, because i see "hoses included", I was helping a friend out and discovered whirltag no longer provides a new set of hoses with a toploader you, "buy them separate". I was truly weak for about 10 seconds. When did this start? how did i miss it? alr

Thanks Greg!
Wikipedia has some great info. It is scary that Haier has the largest world market share at 6.1%. Guess we better get used to them being around.

Thanks for the news and pics
Even though it is pronounced higher, looking at it makes me think of haywire. I wonder if the washer mechanism is like a world washer.

HAIER APPLIANCES
Thanks for the information about Haier Greg, as the old song says [ The Times Are A Changing ].
I love dryer doors that open down I wish that FL washers would go back to these also.
If Liebber is a world leader in refrigeration why can't even get an ice-maker to work? they also had the most uneven cooling performance in a recent CRs test.

Years ago when I first heard of Haier the first thing that came to mind was "german".
I disagree with a previous comment about drop-down doors. I love my 27" Whirlpool, and if I can help it, I will never own anything but a dryer like it.

Though the quality may be sub-par compared to a 10 year old MOL Kenmore DD, it is pretty much the new reality of the washing machine those with less than $400 to spend will buy. I would expect that quality will improve somewhat over time. For a Chinese company to have the largest market share of white goods sales on the planet in 25-odd years is nothing short of stunning. At an equal pace, Midea appliance group is also one to watch. Midea owns a majority share of Little Swan Washing Machine Co. in Wuxi (woo-shee) just up the Yangze River from Shanghai where most Danby twin-tubs and the General Electric front loading washer are made. IIRC the GE's were among the top in CR's ratings in last couple of years. If you have a small refrigeration appliance, dorm fridge, wine fridge, window air conditioner, dehumidifier, etc. in your home that says "Made in China" it likely came from one of these two appliance giants.

A Big Lot's here in the Atlanta area had these on the sales floor for $179 something back in June. I quickly called a couple that I know that just bought their first home. They bought a pair and actually love it. I have heard them running. I don't find they sound cheap at all. The motor in the washer sounds very strong. Very good turn over. Ramp up speed for the spin on a heavy load is very quick.
They dryer sounds like a typical WCI dryer today.

Sales are picking up
I was at the Brandsmart yesterday and asked one of the reps about these machines, and he stated that sales are slowly increasing. I asked him about the quality, and he stated that he hoped that as sales increased, the availability of parts would improve.
His next remark, however, was so hilarious I almost laughed out loud; he stated that what I should consider instead of the Haier was the Amana front loader we were standing in front of because it was made by the Amish and that the quality was therefore much better!!! I didn't have the heart to tell him that Amana was a division of Whirlpool and that the Amish probably didn't even use let alone manufacture automatic washers.
