Model # WKEX200HWA
Initial impression: "It's big!"
2nd impression: Once in place, it doesn't seem overly large--it fits. With it's mid-way black band and 2, large, shaded glass doors that look black, it's a quiet, dignified, tech look. Like that both drums have a light.
3rd impression: It's quiet. The noisiest sound is when water is entering. All other sounds are subtle and serious. The dryer's deep hum also has a serious quality. (I haven't washed jeans or button/zipper items yet. The banging of those metal parts hitting the drums will become the prevailing sound.)
I watched much of the first cycle I ran--a rinse & spin of some rag-towels. The rinsing was quite through with quite a variety of tubbing--the LG "6Motion Technology".
That rinse & spin cycle seemed long, but it certainly did a serious job of it and looked and sounded good while doing it, so, fine!
All spins I have witnessed so far were very smooth--not even sure there was a resonance effect during the speed up or down.
Ordered it from a local/national dealer half-a-continent away since no one local had it or knew when they would get it and my old washer died after limping for 2 months.
I never bought something like this from a far away company, but I was getting anxious. They shipped it the next day & it arrived on the 5th day (which included a weekend). Hired a Handyman from HomeAdvisor, as suggested by the dealer. The installation is straight-forward and went well.
So, I'm pleased and would recommend.
P.S. The baffles in the wash drum seem to be stainless, like the drum. How common is that?
