Up close with Kenmore's Elite 31633 washing machine

The Kenmore Elite 31633 washing machine is available in the United States.

It's a high-efficiency (HE) appliance that uses HE detergent.

It also has a whopping 6.2-cubic-foot capacity.

That means this washer can fit at least two standard-size loads of laundry in a single cycle.

It also looks quite high-end.

$1,530 is quite a lot to spend on a washer, but it is currently on sale at Sears for just $915.

It has 10 cleaning cycles.

Use the central dial to select the option you want.

Then, use the touch panel to select the water temperature, spin speed and soil level you want.

The digital display will tell you how long the cycle takes -- and track the time remaining throughout the cycle.

The touch display "buttons" are very responsive.

Simply tap the option you want and you're on your way.
