Strongly influenced by Glatts Consumer Reports ratings we bought this

Wanted stainless inside cause they are quieter and I think stay cleaner, got stainless outside by default, which is nice as it seems to make our tiny kitchen seem a bit bigger.

Has a weird cutlery system where the basket attaches inside the door, this does seems to leave more space for dishes so I guess we'll get used to it.

The wash cycle takes a lot longer, 2 1/2 hours as opposed to 1 1/2 on the old machine, but it cleans much more effectively so I guess that's OK, especially as I put it on at night mostly.

It is very quiet, rated at 48 dB, you can only hear a gentle swishing standing right next to it.

We didn't want top controls particularly, but we like a proper handle

I misremembered this thread as being about washing machines, and came here to post the news that Samsung is recalling almost 3 million washing machines because the lids can fly off unexpectedly and injure you the way they have injured 9 other people.
