Nice video ! Very Pro I think. that is a pretty machine. All that jiggling in the beginning is the washer trying to sense the weight of the clothes to determine how much water to fill. The motor has a torque sensor that tells it how much weight is in the tub.

 

I am amazed that you are able to change cycle elements on the fly like that, even in my Speed Queen once it starts there is no changing unless you Z out the whole cycle and start over. That kind of flexibility is a real plus.

Love the Cherry color!!

Thanks John. Yeah,  you can play those buttons & keys  & blinking dial like an organ.   I so hope you'll get one.  The Wild Cherry will one day be as sought after as your  Charcoal .

 More on the water later.  Lots to tell.  "On the  fly"  to LA at noon. Washing and packing and securing the premises like a squirrel. 

 

Memory trigger: Jon is right: what happened when I added a towel late in the cycle, and then just a T-shirt.

Michael,

How are things with this washer? Your pics and vids are making this gorgeous machine seem appealing and almost necessary!

I was looking at a used Neptune 7500 set that fell through, and have seemed to acquire a speed queen front load set that needs some work and am desperate to get rid of my samsung wf210anw washer...

I guess I shouldn't say that, I have been fiddling with it more and more and am getting it to clean better as I keep adjusting water levels and temperatures... The damn thing doesn't use hot water when you put it on a hot cycle. When the unit was new, it barely spit on the clothes and the paddles on the drum don't seem to pull the clothes as much as they should... But what can I say when the set cost what the Cherry LG washer costs alone.

Anywho, I found one for around 600 with free shipping and was thinking of picking it up...

I just had a few questions I wanted to go over, a lot of them have been answered by this thread but curiosity still leads the mind to wander. I thought I'd better start by making sure you still enjoy the machine first.

I hope all is well!

kenmore elite with accela-wash

I have a Kenmore Elite washer with the Accela-wash feature which is the cousin to the lg with the turbo-wash. It does the same things you've described. Mine doesn't have the steam, but it does have the auto soak feature. I use the normal/casual and whites cycles all with accela-wash. When I wash whites, I use accela-wash, auto soak, and 2 extra rinses. I use the usual tide, downy, and Clorox. Very nice set.
