Not everyone has a large laundry area in their home. If that describes your situation, the Bosch WAT28402UC 800 was designed for you.

It's made to fit into smaller spaces, such as apartments, condos, or tight laundry areas...but this washer is no slouch. Just the opposite, in fact. The Bosch WAT28402UC 800 washer is a lean, mean washing machine that boasts performance beyond its size.

Time is always on your side with the Bosch WAT28402UC 800.

Now THIS is a washing machine! The LG WM8100HVA washer boasts a huge 5.2-cubic foot capacity tub that allows you to stuff in a king-sized comforter...and more!
