Yes, we need to get a set for the house and I'm starting to shop around, but would love to find out from all of you what you have, your experiences and if you've heard something about another model/brand.

We're looking I'm looking for a front loading, energy efficient machine that has a larger capacity (for those bolts of fabric we buy)... :)

I have Kenmores from 1993 still going strong without any breakdowns. I have a Kenmore sewing machine too that has been very reliable as well.

I was looking at the new steam machines and I think the salesman gave it to me pretty straight. He said that you get the same result putting in a damp towel into the dryer for de-wrinkling, and that the washing results on the top vs. front loaders was not appreciable for the money. I don't have much experience with the front loader, but I did get the top of the line large capacity top loader that takes king size comforters plus.
