Kenmore Washer - Front Load HE5T Review

Purchased the Kenmore HE5T front-load washer about a year ago and really like it.  I especially like the ability to wash bulky items such as blankets and curtains, which I was unable to do before in my top-load washer.  I also like that it spins the clothes much dryer than the top-load.  I have many items that I do not put in the dryer and they dry much quicker now, even heavy items such as denim jeans. 

I have not experienced some of the issues I've read in other reviews, such as clothes getting very tangled together and the machine shaking so much it moves. 

I do think all of the pre-programmed cycles are not necessary as it is very easy to select a cycle then adjust the settings as you wish.  I have only used the steam cycle once so probably would have been just as happy with the less expensive model that does not have the steam feature. 

Overall, I am very happy with the Kenmore HE5T front-load washer.
