Please, guys, tell me about agitators

[toggleswitch]

In my simplistic little mind I think of it this way:

In general:
F/L-er moving clothes through water
T/L-er moving water through clothes (which I suppose would make the GE filter-flo and similar, by definition, superior).

Love your agitator modifications and SS filter, *the 7*

and look at the interior photo, to see an example of an agitator with a smaller diameter center post and shallower fins all'round. These worked just as well as the newer ones in this thread that have deeper fins; they just did it differently: longer arc, slower speed, rather than shorter arc and faster speed.
