Heh heh, we only have one half of the duet, still using the Kenmore dryer. The washer's sitting beside it and no, they sure don't look like a matched pair.

Yeah, the fast spin is pretty cool, they do come out a lot drier than I've ever experienced before.

My Duet looks very different from Tom P.'s Must be a different model.

The beeps/chime sounds are more pleasing that I expected...a little oh-who-cares that my wife and I ended up appreciating more than we expected

The only thing that bugs me is that the liquid detergent seeps out of the dispenser cup (addressed in manual, they recommend powder for some situations) if you do a pre-wash, so the pre-wash ends up having all the detergent in it. No biggie IMO, haven't noticed any problems.

AL-53- Glad you like the LG, it *is* a great washer. Part of the "parts issue" supposedly is that they (factory parts source) send the wrong parts most of the time. The repair guys really rant about it as they're the ones who end up dealing with the problem (and the irate customers). With any luck you won't even *need* parts, I just have really bad luck with certain appliances so I didn't want to take any chances.
