Bret, Recently bought a top-loading washer and dryer too. Went with a less- expensive brand... BUT wishing I'd gone with Speed Queen even though the price as almost $500 higher than the set I did purchase.
ONE CAUTION: Just because a new machine has a for-real looking agitator pole... does NOT mean that it will really agitate!!!
My new machine's version of agitation is a feeble, pathetic, paltry, and woefully inadequate: "reh---reh---reh"... as opposed to ALL of my former washers: "WHOOOSHA-WHOOOSHA-WHOOSHA".
ANDDDD you cannot pre-fill the tub. You must toss in the detergent, then the clothes, THEN press start and it will fill up.
ANDDDDD you cannot pre-soak in the manner that I used to do... because after the bleeping thing sets for 10 minutes, it will "auto-empty". Soooo, then you have to refill it and start again... I'd like to know how THAT is energy efficient. Sheeesh!
PLUS, I have to set it to the two-rinse cycle to get a decent rinse... because it just sprays water while spinning. Sure - that'll get all the detergent out... NOT.
Next time I'm looking for an antique one - like grandma had, with a wringer... and have my husband throw a new motor on it. LOL!!
Again, wishing I'd gone Speed Queen. But even at that - be sure to ask them if it TRULY agitates because the Speed Queen sales person told me the new models this year must be High Efficiency... so maybe the "talking heads of regulation" have taken away their power-agitation too! I don't know.

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: Fordson Major - by Anthony West. George bought his Fordson Major from a an implement sale about 18 years ago for £200.00 (UK).
