worse front load machines require more service, its kinda complex, so

I love my Maytag stack, indeed I wouldn't consider anything but a stack
considering the space savings. Of course I don't have mine on any kind
of platform so it would be very easy to pull out for service.

Wonder if you will still love your stack when the drum bearing fails,
and your faced with 350 bucks cost for new drum?

-- sure your saving energy and water with front loaders but the added
up front costs will never be recouped on water and energy savings

We're veering OT here, but don't forget the savings on the drying side
of front loaders also. I bought a FL unit that spins at 1100RPM, one
of the fastest available at the time. I am now able to set my dryer on
low heat, for half the time that I used to. I don't know if that's
1/4 the gas usage, but it's certainly more than half just based on the
time alone. Add in the fact that many items can be hung up for just a
couple of hours to dry and the savings goes up because I use the dryer
less often now. With a 6 person household, this adds up to a
considerable savings.
