My buddy has a front load washer and absolutely HATES it! Don’t go there!
We have owned a Bosch washer and dryer for five years. The washer is great at getting clothes clean, but very, very loud and becomes unbalanced very frequently. I found some video on youtube of the spin cycle and if I knew then, I would not have purchased it because it sounds like a jet powering up. If you purchase one, make sure the floor underneath it is stable and reinforced. I would move it to the basement in this house if the owners had a hook-up for it, because it’s so loud that I don’t like being anywhere on the first floor when it’s running.
The dryer works just fine no issues except the coil just burned out and cost about $300 to fix.
I’m sure that newer models have addressed the spin issues.
