“We’re gong back to a top loader “

Good decision. I’ve always had Sears (which I think is Whirlpool)

Some of the Sears machines are Whirlpools. If you look at some of the top load Maytags they are about the same machine.

Maytag changed things a few years ago. The good old design looks like this:

The above is the classic Maytag, a great design.

No, Sears is Kenmore. They may have an agreement, though, for slapping their name on it. Which they always did in the past.

My mom was way ahead of the times many years ago with her old side wringer top loading washing machine. She did all the wash in one fill of water because she had to heat the water on a stove before starting the wash. She started with the whites and finished with the overalls. If the great engineers of today wanted to do it right, they would install a system to save the water between washes. There used to be an option where the top loading washer would discharge the water into a side tub and then after spinning the clothes dry, the operator would take the clothes out and put the next batch into the washer. The washer would then suck the water out of the tub back into the washer for the second wash. Front loaders are just a very expensive and worthless idea in my opinion.

I have whirlpools for 17 years now. Easy to fix.
