Product review (5 stars): So easy even a tiny woman can replace the agitator "dawgs"
My husband does not enjoy it when I emasculate him, but sometimes I have no choice. Replacing the agitator dogs in the washer is one of those times. I'd noticed the washer wasn't cleaning as well, and I noticed the agitator wasn't moving the clothes around as well, put 2 and 2 together which sadly took longer than it should have, and I realized there was an agitator issue. I went to Google to research this and sure enough already on youtube were atleast 100 videos of men (always men for some reason) explaining what to look for when your washer isn't agitating correctly and how to fix it. After watching a few I realized not all washers are the same, one video showed how the washer has to be turned on it's back and a motor removed just to fix this issue, but perhaps those are fancy high priced rich people washers. I own a used top load washer like most poor people who proclaim they will refuse to buy a washer that requires a technician to install and can wash 3 king sized comforters. I then decided to narrow my search to my specific washer model which must be very common because I found a video that showed my model and how to fix it. It looked so easy, the video had step by step instructions, I had a screw driver, this was going to be easy as cake. Then it came to finding the $5 part, the agitator dogs which I will call "dawgs" it just sounds better that way. Don't go to Lowe's or Home Depot, they sell the washers that use the dawgs, but they don't actually sell the parts that they know will break eventually and are easy peasey to replace, nope. You may be able to find them at a super hardware store, they kind that employs really old men who know how to fix everything, but the one near me burned to the ground and has yet to reopen. So I went to Amazon and found exactly what I needed. While my husband played a video game I went out in the garage to the washer and removed the broken dawgs and replaced them with the new ones, it took less than 10  minutes. Now my husband's underwear gets clean.
