Samsung (junk) is on its last leg. Just replaced the pump to make it to the new year.

Looking for top load, high capacity that ISN’T energy/water efficient. I want it to use lots of fresh water and power.

What’s the OT’s recommendations?

Just bought a Maytag that actually has an agitator. They called it a hybrid. And you can make it fill up with water all the way.

At Lowe’s
Maytag 5.2-cu ft High-Efficiency Top-Load Washer with Agitator (White)
Item # 916485 Model # MVWB865GW

Make sure whatever washer you get doesn't have a lid lock. Whoever came up with that needs to be punched in the face!

hit up craigslist and buy a pre-2007 kenmore, whirlpool..ect for $100.

Might need to pick up some parts on ebay to get it running like new but you'll have a great washer for a great price.

Oh, and only buy FSP parts which is who makes OEM parts.





))))all of the above I've learned from Napolean(((

My washer of 20 years needed a new transmission. Got the OEM part and hired an old experienced hand to fix it. He said it’ll run another 20 years easy

Go talk to the guys at C&C and buy a speed queen. I bought one earlier this year and my wife couldn’t be happier. I went through 3 whirlpools in 6 years and I refuse to own a front load machine that needs to be cleaned regularly (hello it’s a friggen washing machine). The speed queen is fast and relatively quiet.

Read reviews on new speedqueen before buying. They completely redesigned the 2018 models andseems they aren’t what they used to be. Was dead set on speedqueen but just ordered Maytag instead.
