Love this machine!

By Eddie's Mom from Chicago on 02/5/2010.

Best Uses:	Bedding, Heavy/Bulky Items, Everyday Clothes, Towels, Delicates
Describe Yourself:	Frequent User
Pros:	Large Capacity, Spins Clothes Dry, Adjustable Settings, Energy Efficient, Clean Clothes Well

This machine is so quick and efficient and gets clothes much cleaner than my old fashioned set in the basement. Love everything - including the loud buzzer so I don't forget!

Energy star - works well!

By Kahanatina from Chicago on 01/11/2010.

Cons:	Can't shut-off buzzer
Describe Yourself:	Frequent User
Best Uses:	Heavy/Bulky Items, Bedding, Towels, Delicates, Everyday Clothes
Pros:	Large Capacity, Energy Efficient, Clean Clothes Well, Spins Clothes Dry

Just got it today and have done 5 loads. It runs quietly and seems to clean everything quite well. The lint tray is small and somewhat flimsy; lint seems to fall inward pretty easily. Agree with others that a buzzer shut-off would be nice--it is a bit long and def. loud but I can deal with it as it was more important to me to have a quality product, a front loader and an energy star appliance.

Good choice

By jkchicago from chicago, IL on 10/3/2009.

Pros:	Clean Clothes Well
Describe Yourself:	Frequent User

I'm very pleased with this purchase. I like the front-loader washer, because it leaves the shelf for folding clothes. The machine is extremely quiet while it's running -- all you hear is when the water fills and then the extremely loud buzzer at the end. I also think it leaves the clothes cleaner and smelling fresher.

IS IT WORKING?

By tangodancer from South Pasadena, CA on 10/2/2009.

Pros:	Adjustable Settings, Spins Clothes Dry, Clean Clothes Well, Energy Efficient
Describe Yourself:	Frequent User
Best Uses:	Towels, Bedding, Everyday Clothes, Delicates

All the reviews are on target. The Frigidaire GLGH1642FS is quiet, and just right for my needs. I live in a loft space and the washer/dryer closet is in the main living area, so I wanted to be sure I had a quiet running machine. Simple to use and I'm happy with the results.

I Luv it!

Best Uses:	Heavy/Bulky Items, Delicates, Towels, Bedding, Everyday Clothes

Yes, is does make a loud noise at the end of the cycles, but I Love that. It saves me time because I know exactly when to set up next load. Warning: It is so efficient I actully called for a service call at first. I couldn't see alot of soap suds, so I thought there was a problem. Turns out, it is designed that way for efficiency.

Excellent Product- Small Space Must

This machine is really excellent and I am happy with my purchase. I find my clothes are cleaner and my clothes do not get as wrinkled after drying. Great machine for small areas and recommend this product for anyone who is interested in a stackable.

Really like this washer/dryer.

By Shannon from Chicago, IL on 11/20/2008.

Pros:	Clean Clothes Well, Adjustable Settings, Energy Efficient
Describe Yourself:	Frequent User
Best Uses:	Towels, Everyday Clothes, Athletic Clothes
Cons:	Very Noisy Buzzer

We have had our new washer/dryer for three weeks and I really like it. Our clothes seem to be a lot cleaner. The only downside is that both the washer and dryer have very noisey buzzers at the end of their cycles with no way to turn them off. But with stackable machines you don't get a lot of choices so I think this is a great product.

Pros:	Adjustable Settings, Quiet, Clean Clothes Well, Large Capacity
Best Uses:	Athletic Clothes, Bedding, Everyday Clothes, Towels
Describe Yourself:	Occasional User

[...] The washer Dryer works very well for all items. We have done sheets and towels and it seems to have a larger capacity than you would think looking at the washing drum. The front load is nice as you have a shelf to fold clothes on.

Loud Machine

By DeaffromBuzzer from Chicago, IL on 06/21/2008.

Pros:	Clean Clothes Well, Large Capacity
Best Uses:	Everyday Clothes
Describe Yourself:	Heavy Duty User
Cons:	Noisy

This washer and dryer works great...but the thing is so loud during it's cycle and also the buzzers. We live in a condo unit and these buzzers scare the living !#@ out of us. Not only does it go off once, but 4 times during the drying cycle for about 20 secs...ridiculous. They should use these buzzers instead of our fire alarms.

It was like Christmas in march

Cons:	Shakesmoves on wood flr, Shakes only in spin cycle
Pros:	Washer spin cycle loud, Adjustable Settings, Large Capacity, Wash cycle really quiet, Clean Clothes Well, Energy Efficient

The machine is wonderful! It cleans clothes so well. I love the front loading. I can put alot more in a load than my previous model. The Dryer is Huge. It really dries the clothes in record time. I'm not crazy about the slide mechanism for the laundry additives slots. I feel that the plastic slide handle may cause problems in the future, but I hope not because I just love this washer and dryer combo and want it around a LONG time. dryer combo and want it around for along time.

Best Uses:	Everyday Clothes, Towels
Describe Yourself:	Frequent User
Pros:	High speed wash, Adjustable Settings, Large Capacity, Clean Clothes Well, Energy Efficient

I was skeptical of Frigidaire because it is an old name that you never see any more but the front load washer and dryer are awesome. I just sold my place and hate to leave these behind. Hoping ABT will have the same set I can buy for my new place.

Washer & Dryer works well. Only complaint is a noisy and long buzzer at end of wash and dry cycles

Large capacity, yes!

By kev from chicago on 07/10/2007.

Pros:	Energy Efficient, Large Capacity
Best Uses:	Everyday Clothes
Describe Yourself:	Practical

At install, the dryer did not work. [...] When the service tech finally arrived, the problem was a simple electrical connection that was not pluged-in. To quote the tech," someone was asleep at the factory". I'm thankful it was an easy and quick fix and hopefully does not reflect on the overall qaulity of the product ( it's been working fine so far ). One more thing, it's true from reviews I read about this and other models of one-piece laundry stations, the buzzer is indeed very loud.

Frigidaire Gas Stack Laundry Center -

By The Retired One from Aurora, Illinois on 04/23/2007.

Cons:	Buzzer on dryer is long
Describe Yourself:	Enjoy Tech Gadgets, Practical, Informed
Pros:	Quiet, Easy to operate, Energy Efficient, Adjustable Settings, Clean Clothes Well, Large Capacity
Best Uses:	Whites, Everyday Clothes, Bedding, RUGS

This is the second stack unit that I have owned; the first being an apartment size; and the one I just purchased being a large-size unit. Prior to my purchase, I had done considerable research into the different type washer/dryer combinations so when I made the purchase I was prepared. Actually, I was so confident in what I was purchasing that I made the transaction over the Internet. Delivery and setup was handled very professionally. I wasn't quite prepared for the pleasant surprise as to how quiet this unit is. I put the first load into the unit (front load washer) added soap softener, selected the water temp and cycle. I turned it on and the water entered the washer. I was waiting for the unit to start and much to my surprise, the washer was already in motion. It is so quiet that I often check on it to make sure everything is okay. I am also pleased by the High Eneregy Efficiency rating. I am very pleased with this purchase.

Excellent Buy

Cons:	Buzzer
Best Uses:	everything

Product works great. The only issue I have is that there is a buzzer when the loads are complete. It is super loud and cannot be turned off.

Great buy!

By Elizabeth the choreographer from Chicago on 07/14/2006.

Pros:

Energy Efficient, Clean Clothes Well, Quiet, Adjustable Settings

I love the front loading of the washer and how truly quiet this machine is! It is also very contemporary looking and is perfect for a condo or apartment.
