Hey was just checking out the CR buying guide for 2021 and here is what I found. They tested a total of 17 agitator topload washers. The TR7 came in 3rd while the TC5 came in 5th. A much greater improvement than in recent years.
The TR7 scored a total of 63. It earned excellent in predicted reliability, owner satisfaction and vibration. It earned very good in gentleness, noise and energy efficiency. Good for water efficiency and fair for washing performance.
The TC5 scored a total of 62. It also scored excellent in predicted reliability, owner satisfaction and vibration. It got a very good in washing performance, a good for water efficiency and gentleness. Only receiving a fair score for energy efficiency and noise.
I know a lot of you don't care for these reports but I think they are fascinating. One thing I've noticed in recent years is it seems they go into much less depth than they used to.
