If you are like me, you are scouring these reviews trying to decide if this is the right product for you- if it will arrive safely, be easy to hook up, and work as promised.
Since this is a fairly large purchase for most, I thought I would add my own review, as a person who seriously debated buying this machine based on the reviews about damages and other difficulties. After much consideration, I finally ordered and received this washing machine and there are a few things I can tell you.
Firstly, it is going to come with some dings, almost guaranteed. As another reviewer mentioned, the tub is free floating inside and there is absolutely nothing to stop it from swinging into the metal housing during shipping. And you have to know it will get bumped hard enough in shipping to swing that tub around at least a little. It would have taken a dollar's worth of styrofoam to secure the tub inside, it is a shame they don't take care of that little problem. So, just resolve yourself to this idea and you won't be disappointed. Fortunately, the dings are only cosmetic, and you might have only a few, or you might have a lot. My machine arrived dinged up, but works perfectly. Most of the dings were caused by the tub pushing from inside out, but there were also a couple of indentions obviously from things hitting the box during shipping. Though I am making a thorough description of the damage, overall, it was not devastating.
Secondly, it's not that hard to hook up, and I found the instruction book adequate. The first thing you must do when you receive the machine, after you unpack it, is to lay it on its side an put the casters on. There are two stopper-type feet, and two adjustable level feet on it, out of the box. The adjustable level feet come right off. The stopper type feet will require a pipe wrench to remove. Don't even think you can do it with your hands or a cheap pair of pliers. They won't budge. But get yourself a pipe wrench and turn counter-clockwise and they will begin to unscrew, no problem. At this time, it will help you to have an electric screwdriver handy to mount the bottom (noise cancelling) panel. You can do it by hand if you want, but if you are doing it alone it will be difficult for you to hold it and put the screws in. Also, the electric screwdriver has a little more force, so if your frame is slightly dented, you can almost correct it by forcing the screws into the correct position.
Voila! Once you put the machine upright, it rolls very easily! The next task is to roll it over to the sink and set up your connections. Personally, I don't see any benefit to having a Y adapter if you only have one faucet. The hot and cold water are going to mix together before going to the intakes anyway, so what is the point? I hooked up only one hose, to the cold water intake. (There is a screw-on plug included for the other intake if you choose to hook up only one.) When the wash cycle begins, I have the hot water on, then after the tub fills I turn the hot water off, and the cold water on for the remaining 2 rinse cycles.
Next, the quick-connect adapter for the faucet is not difficult to install. You simply unscrew the aerator off your faucet, and add the quick-connect version which screws right in to replace it. Then attach the other piece of the quick-connect to the end of the cold water hose you just installed on the back of the washer. Now this hose will clip on to your faucet in one motion. Just push down the white piece, slip it over the piece on the faucet, and release. It makes a tight, reliable connection. If you leave the faucet piece on (you can still run water through it) then each time you want to wash, all you have to do is click the quick-connect on and you are ready to go. So, no worries about that part, it is a snap.
Now, the drain hose is another thing. It is too inflexible, and too short to be convenient. If you use this hose, be sure to use something to weight it so it remains in the sink when the water starts coming through! It is made of slick accordion plastic which does not stay in place easily. Myself, I went and bought some thick black rubber tubing in a longer length. A hose clamp is included, be sure to use it to secure whatever hose you might choose to use. If you don't clamp the hose on tightly, you will have a flood as soon as the pump kicks in.
OK, so that's what you can expect once the machine arrives. It seems like a bit of work, and all in all it will probably take you an hour and half before you get your first wash in. But that's where it pays off. This little machine washes just beautifully. The clothes are very clean after the generous wash and two rinse cycles. It spins them very well, so the clothes dry in 6-8 hours after you hang them up. (If you are an apartment dweller with no dryer, do a search on the internet for a "gull-wing clothes drying rack" for a neat solution for drying.)
I have to agree that the design on the detergent drawer could be much much better, but it works. It also has a fabric softener dispenser and a bleach dispenser! The electronic panel is just plain cool, as well. Like another reviewer, I hope it lasts a long time. There is also an available soak cycle which you can add to any of the regular cycles, which is very handy. When it comes to washing, this machine is A+. I really could not be happier with its performance. The tub actually holds much more than I anticipated-- I would guess about 2/3 of a "normal" washer.
I found this machine a good investment, considering the cost and inconvenience of going to a laundromat. If you are living in an apartment without hook-ups and are spending hours in the laundromat, this will change your life in a good way.
I will try to come back after some months and comment on the long term performance, but I am not anticipating any problems.
**UPDATE**
6 months later, and I am still very happy with this machine.Thrilled actually, not to have seen the inside of a laundromat for a good long while.
The only issue I have had is that if the machine is not on a nice level piece of flooring, it will have balance issues.Once I recognized what was causing the problem, I had to memorize the "sweet spot" on the floor in front of the sink where the machine has to sit precisely in order to avoid any balance problems.My kitchen floor is anything but level.As long as it is in the zone, it can hold an amazing amount of clothes and spin clean without a hitch.If it is not level, I can have even a small amount of clothes in it and it acts up by refilling itself over and over because it thinks the clothes are out of balance and it is trying to correct it by adding water (self-balancing feature.)So if you are having similar trouble, experiment moving the machine 3-4" this way or that, until you find the place it likes and it will perform like a champ.
Using my drying rack and opening the windows to create a cross-breeze in the house, the clothes are dry in 5-6 hours.There are other bonuses to this method.Not putting them in the dryer is also causing less wear and color loss to the fabrics, and stains do not set...so if you miss one, you can get it out the next time without the dryer having "cooked" it in forever.Then there's the simple environmental and cost savings of not running a dryer as well.
Thumbs up for this machine, dings and all.Kick your feet up in your favorite chair while the washer is working and think about how great it is not to be in some sweaty laundromat full of college kids.

Easy and fast to use. Well constructed.
As with all Riedel glasses, these are great quality and nice to use.I wish they were a tad larger, but other than that, they are perfect.
I used this at a party recently and was in awe... just put it on the bottle, spin, and off flies the top! It feels great in your hand, and looks gorgeous wherever it lands on the table... unlike other foil cutters available.Also - it's very difficult to cut yourself with this thing, and it's also tough to break. I notice it's not available on amazon right now - but I saw it at Williams Sonoma, so you can look there if amazon doesn't have it.
Well, a lot, surprisingly.
Now, i love the idea of having a chrome tub caddy until 2 months into having it, it begain to rust. Then the candle holder & the wine glass holder rusted off !!! I am now on the looking out for a plastic covered tub caddy. A caddy is awesome to have but not in chrome !!!
Received my Corkpops opener as a gift three years ago & have been amazed at the ease of opening a bottle of wine ever since.I always order two boxes of Corkpops refills so I never run out of cartridges.Love it!!!!
I am wine collector w a sommeliers diploma - so I've done a lot of tastings over the past 20 years. Obviously the top league is held by Riedel - the old guy did his research on glass shapes (although debatable whether optimal for every varietal). 
ANYONE who drinks wine, NEEDS these glasses.It makes any wine taste better.These are amazing-I can't say enough.If you do a side by side test-you won't believe it.Even someone who doesn't drink wine could taste the difference.If you do't own Riedel, you're not really that into wine.
This is a beautiful bottle stopper but it's a little small and doesn't fit tightly in the bottle.
Woks very well - I use it to prevent the corkscrew from wearing down when going through the wax seal.
I have had one of these "Screwpull" tools for years.I was getting new ones for friends that liked how easy Champagne was to open when you used this tool. You have control without losing any of the champagne.
True Fabrications Lever Corkscrew is the best of the last three purchased corkscrews. My last corkscrew was the original and overpriced "Rabbit." The Rabbit is constructed of plastic parts and self destructed in less than one year. This one is made from metal and appears to be of far struder construction. So far so good. I would recommend its' purchase over the other junk constructed from plastic.
I got this for my spouse (as well as the non-travel style one) to replace a similar (off brand) that broke. He prefers using these Screwpull brand corkscrews. He appreciates that there is a very long screw thread so that when there is a cork that has broken this style of corkscrew always works. I'm not as thrilled, since in my smaller hands, everything feels more floppy, so I prefer the old-style heavy corkscrews that sit on top and have the 'wings'. But, when the cork crumbles on an old bottle, now we have no trouble extracting it instead of having to push it into the bottle.
I've purchased products from Art by Tilliams prior to this order, and was very pleased, which is why I went first to their products this time.It, and the companion print, is exactly as pictured and is perfect for my use.I am also very pleased with the packaging.I think these could have fallen off a truck and still have been undamaged.Very secure.
The glass looks great. But as I held it in my hand, and believe me please, gently dried the inside with a paper towel, the stem snapped in my fingers. I can't tell you just how little pressure was applied and now that's $60 bucks down the tubes after only 2 glasses of wine!
I'll start with some a couple bad things about my experience, but they don't reflect on the cart itself. If I could, I would rate the cart itself 5-stars and my experience 3.
The hardware to fasten the rack to the wall is ill-designed. To find the proper spot for the bottom fasteners, you need to assemble the rack, mark the contour (you can't mark the drill hole because the holding rack is right in front), dissassemble the rack again, then fasten the hardware to the wall, then re-assemble the rack.
I'd give zero stars if it was an option. Don't waste your time on this company.
Best corkscrew I ever had. Great stuff from a wine lover!!
I was very excited to get the Skybar wine system home and install it, However once i did i was disappointed. The unit is very loud. My house has all the typical noises plus i have a walk in wine cellar that has 2 continuous fans running. So there is a little more background noise than other houses. But the skybar add a whole other factor of noise! I can hear this thing from 60 + feet away. Take your typical refrigerator and multiply it by 10 and now you are getting close. 
This ice bucket has a reasonable price but a really refined appeal.with the appearance of glass, it is lightweight acrylic, which handles well.It really has a elegant look and when setting up for the last catered party at my home, the ice bucket brought by the caters didn't compare to ours.
These are thin, flexible, easy to clean and look good enough to serve on.The price is unbeatable.I replaced most of my other cutting boards with these.
If you are looking for an attractive yet functional glass lazy susan, this is perfect. It is big enough to hold what you want and still leave room on the table for placemats, plates, glasses, cutlery.One word of caution, a 42" table is absolutely the smallest table it will fit nicely and that is only if there are 2 people at the table; it is not a problem for me and my husband.At least a 48" table would be better if serving more than 2 people.
It was a little difficult to assemble, but it looks good and is very sturdy.A good deal for the price.
This Brabantia cork screw remains my favorite corkscrew, even after over 11 years of almost unchanged design. It is the most user friendly one of them all and works with virtually any bottle.
I purchased this decanter as a Christmas gift and although it is designed for a Liquior container, it is going to be used as a Wine Bottle.It is the perfect size to fit on a tray with wine glasses.I loved it and so was the person that received it.It is like an antique cut glass and looks very expensive.
DISAPPOINTED WITH THIS ONE.IT IS NOT DURABLE AN THE GLIDER PORTION CAME APART. HELENKA
