    Advantages Advantages huge loads, fast wash, high quality,20 year warranty

    Disadvantages Disadvantages it's a big machine!

    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Very easy to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages clothes become very linty and bobbled and loads become unbalanced

    Sorry to burst your bubble Jeff but the 10 year and 20 year warranties just don't exist. I know this because I have contacted Admiral today to arrange an engineer because my machine has become unbalanced and irrespective of the size or type of load, it goes crazy during the spin cycle. Admiral staff told me the machine has a one year warranty and Maytag machines carry a two year warranty. They are shocked to think that their machines are being sold on the basis of the great warranty. I suggested they should contact their suppliers and take them to task. I bought my machine from www ... more
