Why not a front loader? I’ve been told they don’t clean as well, stinky water gets left behind, and it would be harder for me to bend into one, hit my head. I want a top loader like I bought 30 years ago before the manufacturers started to change all the models.
IF those things were true they wouldn't sell any. It's not true. They clean fine. No water gets left behind plus they have an option to stir them up to keep the load fresh if you leave them in the washer overnight. They make pedestals to raise them up to prevent you bending over much.
