Have been using a front loader (the cheapest Frigidaire) for more than
five years and I am sold on it because I think is is much easier on

Me, too, and we have the Frigidaire Gallery. Works great, washes a
lot of clothes, and cleans the big comforters, too. In fact, I need
to go check the laundry right now!
