This machine is great. Yes, as some of the other reviews have mentioned, the instructions are a little tricky at first to get the hang of. But don't worry once you have its straight forward and a great buy. It's really quiet. It has a 30 min and 60 min cycle are the shortest cycles. You can also put the dryer on for 30 mins, 60 mins 75 mins 90 mins and much more. I really like the choice of dryer times.
