This machine is TOTALLY awesome! I also figured out how to use it with the lid open as per Jason's instructions, and just watched the catalyst action! I absolutely love it! I think that its so cool that it can do such a good job for a top loader with such LOW water levels. I have tried almost all the cycles so far and found sheets and towels the best (no catalyst, no time wasting spinning and and showering, just load sensing>washing>spinning>rinsing done!)
As for the Amirtag, The tranny was DONE... Oil everywhere, belt clippings etc.
This is just a much nicer machine!
I cant wait for it to finish the current load of whites so I can go try the "Extra Rinse" to see if it does a spray rinse!
