 Background: My parents live in a Victorian home with the laundry set up in the cellar. They are in their 70's and getting laundry up and down the stairs is now a trial, so I suggested that they convert an unused hall closet into a laundry niche.
I am particularly concerned about discovering things that don't work as expected until after the unit is home. For example I am reading reviews of models that NO LONGER fill the tub to capacity in order to meet water-use mandates.
Any opinions on machinery, vendors, pitfalls, or even a workable vintage solution would be welcome. I am not looking forward to a new machine purchase, but feel that it's the least evil available to me.
=Thanks=

I would stick with Maytag or Whirlpool stacked sets... so long as there is a fabric softener select switch, then the tub will fill up for a rinse as long as fabric soft, is selected. Mike Stay away from GE!! | ||

Scoots, I'm on my 3rd Fridig/more stack. Lot's of capacity, seems durable and to date no service calls in over 12 yrs. | ||
