Replaced ours with GE front loads years ago and haven't had any problems. Bought the stands to raise them up, but we really don't use the drawers for storage. The wash cycle takes much longer than a top load as it uses less water. You can't believe the clock on the front as to the minutes left. It's like a basketball game, 1 minute can take 10. When it spins, it sounds like a plane taking off and must be really level or it will rock and shake. We also have to leave the door open to let it dry out or it will smell musty. On the plus side, it gets the clothes really clean and I don't lose buttons off my shirt. The clothes come out really dry, so the dryer doesn't run very long. We have had ours for maybe 10 years, so I'm sure they have improved the current models.
