Maybe a lesson to learn here is that it can be risky to buy things
that deviate from the tried and true designs? I've never seen an
agitator-free model, except for front loaders, but then I haven't been
looking at washers in a long, long time. Seems to me, agitation is a good
and necessary thing. I would suspect a big potential problem today is
that manufacturer's are being pushed or forced to use less and less
water and energy.

We bought a Maytag top loading washer a few months back. I don't think
you could call the thing that sticks up about 3 inches an agitator.
Atleast not what I am think of that goes up and down. This machine has
a clear top. Youcan see the cloths just swishing back and forth.

That thing sure makes funny noises as it works. It messes aorund for a
short time to weigh the cloths and then puts in the ammount of water it
thinks it needs. Only thing it does like the old one is spin dry.

I hope it holds together. It does say a 10 year wattenty on the motor.
