We purchased a top loading HE washer by Whirlpool and it is a total disappointment.  The water level is not sufficient to clean your clothes. The agitation is so poor it swishes the bottom of your wash but two-thirds of the wash is just damp.  Period!

I would suggest if you want your clothes clean do not buy an HE washer!
