[Greenbuilding] spin phycle

[Clarke Olsen]

I looked at Consumer reports, saw the local Sears had their basic model on sale. Very little vibration, 
easy choice of wash levels, water temp, spin speed. I had bought a Whirlpool earlier (for another location),
and it is not working well: poor controls, not intuitive, a piece-o-shit.
