Product review (1 stars): absolutely the worst washer
This washer is not a regular agitator.  It has a different system--lots of strange sounds--but the bottom line is it wrecks the clothes.  Gordian knots have nothing on what happens to the clothes--if it weren't so infuriating it would be hilarious.  Every single time.  The clothing is twisted together mostly into one huge knot.  And, it causes holes in the clothing.  I was looking for a simple washer without all the dials and whistles, so bought this, not aware of the different washing system.  It was obviously designed by someone who sends their laundry out!
