We bought this machine because consumer reports said whirlpool has the least number of break downs for front loading washers

The amount of space is just about right for a 2-3 person household.  It gets items really really clean.  It's fast, quiet, water efficient etc =P  I am not sure about durability as we have just gotten two months ago.  Will update if anything goes wrong. 

If you are buying the set for an apartment, be sure to measure the amount of space instead of just listening to the salesman who will say this is a good unit for apartments because it is smaller than the Whirlpool duet (non sport).  Also take into account the amount of space needed for the exhaust pipe for the dryer and that you can open the detergent dish thinging if it is behind a closet door. 

A lot of the reviews I read encourage people to buy an extended warrantee on this.  If you want to save money, I'd suggest buying a warrantee on the washer but not the dryer.  Another thing I found out from the reviews is that you have to change the filter often.  Another thing is that I heard you should use high concentration detergent. 

One problem some people had was that Whirlpool the company offers really bad customer service if your machine happens to have problems.
