I have this washer exactly, it's a pretty good little washing machine, uses plenty of water!!! Mine just has a spin issue, it appears that the tub is not connected to one of the legs of the spider assembly...
I have this machine as well at the lake house. It works well, does use enough water. Just be careful of coins. They seem to go right into the pump and create a grinding noise, and limit the draining.
Oh bpetersxx, I wish you HADN'T done that!! Now I need to get one. What model No.? And yes, the EMPEROR will do. It's not a washer-dryer combo is it? The Haier combo machines don't dry well at all I've been told.
