I had read about the loud buzzer - and they're not kidding. This is the loudest buzzer I've ever heard and there should be an off switch for this.Otherwise, it's a joy to use!

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

I use it daily for washing of all types of laundry. I love the quiet operation of the machine. The buzzer is a little to loud. Lastly, I do not use fast spin because it causes unit to vibrate. For the most part I am very pleased with purchase.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

Overall, a very good washer/dryer combo. It uses a lot less water than our 18 year-old top load did. The drying times are shorter because of this. We have a laundry "closet." It would be more convenient if the doors swung to the right instead of the left. The swing can't be changed. Also, the place we have it installed, I can't reach the water shut-offs which are behind the unit. I will have to do a little plumbing to fix this. Also, make sure if you have existing wiring for a dryer that both plumbing and wiring will reach. This unit uses the dryer circuit. I did have to move my outlet so I wouldn't have a long power cable across the floor.

Service & Delivery comments:

The unit comes in one piece. It is very heavy(375 lbs). The delivery guy would not bring it into the house since only my daughter was home to help. When I came home from work, it was at the edge of the driveway. Plan on getting a dolly and a couple of burly friends to help get it into place.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

We have had ours installed for a week now and so far we really like it. The installation wasn't too bad, but it would have been even better if it was readily mentioned that there was no plug included. Be sure to read the Installation Instructions in detail beforehand.

The buzzer is LOUD; you won't miss it. Regular operation is not too noisy.

We were limited with space so we went with this stackable.We are very happy with this up to now. Yes the buzzer is not only loud but aggravating. Good thing is it only took 15 minutes to disconnect this to prevent being woken from a dead sleep when this would go off. Happy with product and sleeping soundly! Leave an email if you need assistance in disconnecting buzzer..

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

the washer is smaller than the dryer - bittersweet in a way because the dryer is huge and the clothes dry SUPER fast! I also compared it to all of the other units and it is the SHORTEST so if you have vertical space constraint this is the unit for you! the buzzer is so loud and there is no way to turn it off...

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

This is a GREAT unit and we are very pleased with its operation. It is gentle on clothes and as a result doesn't remove stains as well as our old name brand top loader, but as a trade off the clothes last longer, and tough stains can be easily pretreated. Efficient and quiet (except for the buzzer) and has a GREAT dryer, and the washer and dryer capacities are fabulous for the unit's size. Thumbs up -- highly recommended!!

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

I just bought the unit in March, and I love it!! The stackable I had before didn't dry my clothes well at all which led me to hang them instead of throwing them in the dryer, I thought this was the way all the electric stackables worked, BUT I purchased this one and I love it!! Just like the other reviewers the buzzer will scare the bajesus out of you, because it is loud, and it buzzes when the clothes are done washing not just drying, I wasn't used to that. But it washes clothes and spin dries very well, and the dryer is full capacity I love it!! The guys who installed it were very nice also made sure it was set up correctly and everything!! Now I don't mind washing, I just make sure I am close by when it's almost done so I don't have to listen to the loud buzzer!! I stay in a condo so this is perfect!!

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

The front load design of the washer of this laundry center is a nice change from my previous 11 year old Frigidaire top load washer/laundry center. It holds more clothes, is more water efficient and easier on the clothes. It is quiet, except when it spins it sometimes rumbles a bit for a moment, but this is common with front load washers. The spin is super fast and extracts water from the clothes very effectively. The dryer also has a very large capacity although the laundry center is only 27 inches wide. The dryer is relatively quiet and dries very effectively. The noisiest part of the laundry center is the very noticeable buzz at the end of the washer and dryer cycles, but it does not really bother me since it is rather short in length and it does notify me of its completion.

Service & Delivery comments:

Delivery was prompt and the laundry center was in perfect conditon. The 2 Abt delivery and installation men were very courteous, efficient and professional in the delivery and installation of the laundry center and removal of my old one. I also like the fact that Abt recycles the old laundry center and does not simply dump it into a landfill.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

I've used this for just over a year running 4 loads a week and it is a great washer and dryer. Works great with all my clothes. I have it located right off the bedroom and I was surprised at how quiet it is, sometimes I have to double check to see if it is running. The buzzer is loud and I can't figure out how to turn it off but I really have no complaints with it.

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

I love this washer and dryer - although I agree the "buzzer" (aka - the alarm) is very loud. Personally I like the loud alarm as I am typically doing other chores while doing laundry so this loud alarm reminds me of laundry. But this unit is like a full size washer/dryer - I love it! Stuff it full and it cleans and dries very good. This is a safe purcahse for Apt/Condo or even single family home owners.[...]

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

I think this washer and dryer is great, outside of the terrible buzzer. [...]Other than the buzzer issue, this unit is great. I had a GE space saver before this, and this unit cleans the clothes much better. It actually seems to remove many stains and what not.The capacity of the washer is large, and the dryer is HUGE.If you are in the market for a new stack washer and dryer, I would recommend this one only if you do not have to have it in your main living area, as the buzzer is insanely loud. If you can wait, I would wait until the newer models come out, because I would imagine a volume adjustment or on off switch will be added.

Fabulous product from size to power

Comments about Frigidaire Frigidaire Electric Stack Laundry Center:

Great size for stackable. I would recommend it to anyone that is confined with space. The washer spin cycle almost drys the clothes which makes the cost of dry time very managble. I've not experienced any smells or mildew and have left the clothes in the washer for 1+ days.

Service & Delivery comments:

The two guys were a delight to work with. They had everything in place and tested in about 30-35 minutes. They knew I had used a wash/dryer before, so the conversation was an educated one. (ex: they didn't show me how to push a button)
