I bought this washer after my previous LG front loader died.  I decided to go with a top loader this time because I was tired of the sloppy, smelly, water and dirt that laid in the rubber tubing around the opening of the machine.  I have used this washer for about 2 weeks now and I am surprised at how much I can fit in the machine!  I washed a king size bulky comforter with no issue!  The only thing I am not crazy about is where the soap dispenser is located.  It pulls out from the back of the tub (under the buttons) making it hard to fill without getting soap everywhere.  I would recommend this washer.
