Now and then I have only a shirt or two or a particular pair of pants to wash. The little top-loader would be perfect for such loads. Looking forward to reading reviews when the first AW member finally springs for one. I use every square inch of the pedestals under the Maytags for storage and a shirt or two wash well in the Maytag's 4.5 cu. ft. tub.
The little LG is certainly a sure-fire collector's item. Twenty years from now they'll be a jewel in the crown of some future AW member's collection.
