LG is finally making "agitator" top loaders!

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

Help Support :

This morning my wife asked me to pull off the sheets and wash them. So I setup my camera phone and a few LEDs and recorded the entire Bedding cycle.

The load consisted of 1 King Size sheet, 2 deep pocket fitted twinXL sheets (I have a split king), and 2 pillow cases.

After I put the items in the washer, I felt as if I did not have enough items in the washer. I felt the tub could have handled 3 times the amount I put in.

This was my 1st time running the Bedding Cycle, so I did not know what water level to expect. To my surprise the tub filled all the way up to the top with water. I guess when the Bedding cycle mode is selected the washer does try to automatically sense how much water to use.

I will post my video to youtube and share the link as soon as I can.
 
Typo on my above msg, which should have read...

"I guess when the Bedding cycle mode is selected the washer does NOT try to automatically sense how much water to use."

Thanks for the links. I HATE when companies use non-describing descriptors for settings. For example the names of the bottom 4 settings of the dial. I have to check the manual just to get a basic idea of what the cycle does because the name says nothing...... Stupid, IMO. But check it I will.
---------------------------------
The world's supply of potable water is slowly decreasing. Like the methods of Covid-19 transmission this is not open for debate, feeling, belief, view, etc. It's the same thing that applies when one concocts the fantasy that an adapter and a converter are the same thing..... and then proceeds to plug a 120v American curling iron (with only an adapter) into a 240v outlet in a hotel bathroom in Norderstedt, Germany --> hair melts. There are no perspectives. True story, btw.

Given that, those pesky laws of physics things still insist on rearing their heads. Under a given set of washing conditions, X amount of water can hold Y amount of suspended dirt, Y reached in Z amount of time. If the wash time is shorter then Z, not all dirt will be extracted from the clothing. If Z is longer than Y, that's minutes wasted.

The advantage of a FL is that there isn't one wash/rinse cycle, but multiple. With each cycle being shorter, the chances Z occurring after Y are reduced. Since each cycle in a FL uses less water than a TL, one can have multiple fill/drain and still use less water than a TL.
 


Just uploaded the 2020 LG Top Load Washer with Agitator full Bedding cycle video. Glass fogs from hot water at around 02:20 & clear up at around 14:00.

I have the Silver / Graphite Steel; model WT7305CV, but this washer also comes in White; model WT7305CW. The Silver model has a tinted top glass and white model has clear top glass. Since the model I have is the Silver model, I had to shoot my video through the tinted top glass.

This load consisted of 1 King Size Sheet, 2 deep pocket TwinXL fitted sheets, and 2 pillow cases.

The only option selected on the washer was the Bedding cycle. The Bedding cycle defaults are.
Cycle Knob turned to "Bedding"
Wash Temp = "Warm".
Spin = "Low".
Soil = "Normal".
