Nice looking,but needs improvements

I bought the gray titanium washer and matching gas dryer. My 11 year old Maytag set was still working well, but I figured I would upgrade before they starting having any issues. The washer water temps seems to only get hot on the sanitize setting. The warm and hot temp water temp selections is cool at best. The washer is definitely nice looking and the pedestals are a must. So much room for products in the pedestal drawers and less bending over is a win/win. When this spins it is extremely fast, even on low spin it is super powerful and tends to wrinkle and rough up the clothes a bit more than I like. The washer is very quiet with the exception of the final spin that is loud and I can feel my kitchen tile floor vibrate. The detergent dispensers are a bit flimsy and difficult to pull out to drain water after the load finishes. I only use a tablespoon of liquid detergent, and I still think it doesn™™t rinse all the detergent out even with the pure rinse selected. Seems like there is still some residue left on my clothes. The washer seems to wash clothes pretty well so far. Some small grease stains remain, but I had the same issue with my former Maytag front load washer as well. The washer is easy to use and most loads take about an hour or so.if I can figure out why the warm and hot temp setting are coming out cool that would help. I™™m going to raise the hot water heater temp, that might do the trick.. I will try and add a little less detergent and see if the clothes rinse cleaner. I don™™t feel like one tablespoon of detergent is much detergent tho. I would like this washer even more if I could fix those two issues. Btw, don™™t use the affresh tabs for the monthly tub cleaning. They just leave residue on everything in the machine. I had to scrub all that off. I™™m going to try the bleach cleaning method next time. I usually use the low spin for all my loads now since all the spins are super powerful. I wish they had a gentle spin for delicates, but the only option is no spin which won™™t help. I don™™t think the optic wash cycle (so you don™™t need to use bleach) works great. . I get better results with bleach. I was excited for that feature, but I didn™™t get the results I hoped for. Overall this seems like a good washer so far, but I cannot comment on durability or lifespan since I™™ve only had this for a month. I would love to see a bedding cycle on this, and a gentle spin going forward. I Hope this review helps others.
