| Ask the salesman what the warranty covers.  We didn't get a front loader specifically because we were told that the warranties don't cover anything that would happen to the computer.  The machine won't work without it which means if you get a power surge and you didn't go through the expense of getting a 30 amp surge protector, or your protector fails, you're going to be paying 1/2 to the full cost of the washer to get it fixed.  
 May not be a big deal to you - but I like to be able to fix my own appliances and I couldn't do that with any of the front loaders.
