LG is finally making "agitator" top loaders!

Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Video

LG realeased a video, showing the wash action for a brief period. Even as slow as it was agitating you can see the fins pulling in the shirt that had an air bubble and almost popping the air bubble. Looks very good. Behaving like a good old rampie agitator! Like the 1964 EASY!
 
Lol

Thomasortega, me too! Haha, i feel like veruca salt, i want one now daddy. Lets hope our friend eugene from lorain appliance does a review! He is a fan of lg and so am i, now if they would add a tub light that would be great!
 
Steam

Appnut yes i agree, add steam and a heater, i'm hoping they will add the agitator to their upper end units, i'm guessing they are going to see the popularity of the agitator model first. They could at least do what ge does with their "sanitize with oxi" cycle which is nothing more than just allowing 100 percent tap hot water, according to ge it makes sure the water is "at least 125 degrees for optimal results using an oxygen based additive"
 
LG Agitator Top Load Washer

Load large items first on the bottom....... [ Where they will likely stay ]

 

This machine is a joke, it should at least have a Dual Action Agitator like the Maytag Commercial TL 575.

 

Hopefully states like California will ban these waster wasting TL machines.

Eh well

Yes it is of my buisness.
Greatly actually.

Not wanting to sound rude, but by most measures of statistics, I have about 30 years more left on this planet than you.

And if you use twice as much water for the same laundry with (probably) worse results, more chemicals and more energy as well and thus leave me without the possibility to - lets just say - take a bath once in a while when I'm 70....

Well, yes, I will tell you what you can use.

And drinkable water is verry much not an infinite, limitless renewable resource.

You know, droughts, melting ice, shrinking rivers.
Such.

Desalination uses obscene amounts of energy.

Water treatment to a lesser extend.
Still, significant.

I mean, it has been said often, but not saying it would just be wrong...
 
On the topic of TLs being banned

Don't think this will happen in the short term.

Midterm maybe.
But not really banned outright.

I do think that regulations should and hopefully will become more realistic covering more than just one cycle on one machine in a way the the automotive industry does it with their fleet emmison ratings.
Basically that with that usage pattern of that appliance calcilated for each appliance that you offer, overall, you are not having more than that impact.

Would allow for example the adoption of EU DW systems and their usage while givong a manufacturer some way to get proper rinsing in label cycles.

Or for them to just not offer certain energy hogs like some fridge/freezer designs and use those savings on proper wash temps.

Basicly saying that all of the appliances of a manufacturer combined can only get that certain usage or they will be fined.

Further that certain performance has to be met.
Like in the EU, the new label for washers coming next year checks for rinsing and for temps of cycles.

And at some point those metrics will just not be achiveable with TLs built like they are today.
 
Henene4 put your trust in the LORD JESUS. You or I didn't create the world we live in, YET all of the things that man has made has come from preexisting material on the earth.

Man can't even recreate a blade of grass.Do you realize who holds all things together?

Go ahead guys.Use your water guzzling washers with praise and Thanksgiving to JESUS our LORD and savior who died for our sins and rose again on the third day !

These things are a gift.Receive it as such.
