I think the biggest difference is they do a better job agitating the
clothes. In a top loader, the agitator tries to swish the clothes
around in the tub. In the front loader, the clothes are constantly
falling on top of each other. IMO, that does a better job of
circulating them all around constantly and randomly. In my Kenmore
toploader, on the normal speed setting, I can see clothes that stay in
the same position for a long time, like on the outside of the tub, not
moving much at all.

Exactly. Also, since there is less water in the machine,
the water/soap solution is more concentrated. Also, the front
loaders are very quiet compared to the top loaders, especially
during the wash cycle.
