I am using LG front washer for almost 2 years.... very wash run in 1200 rpm, so far the clothing is ok never torn or change shape...... hang outside for 2 hours dry oredi.... save electricity no need dryer
if leather or pvc should be ok, but not for fabrics........ just keep no leg and having meal on the sofa..... my sofa is pu leather (very very light greyish white), just wipe with wet cloth once a week will do....
