imo, panasonic is lousy too. my xp:
- auto water leveling (set by detecting my clothes weight) too low.
- the tub goes out of balance suddenly. i suspect something is wrong with 1 of the "suspension bar".
- fails to remove the accumulated chunks of dirt (after washing) via its filter (even when the machine was new)
Give other brands a try, your bad review is quite subjective, I find all new top load model auto water leveling is low because promoting water saving
Chunks of dirts I don't think any other similar washing machine can do any better, tough dirts always need intensive cleaning to clean by hand, no washing machine
have guarantee dirt cleaning to date, its only about which better than the other which I believe very minor difference unless hot water feature might make little bit more differences.
Tub goes out of balance suddenly sounded like temporary, if it goes bad it goes bad, it doesn't goes bad in a while, if still under warranty better claim from them.
