So you guys! We’ve had this Maytag maxima front loader for about 4 years and I’ve never liked the way my clothes feel after I wash them. When I was 4-5 i always used to go to my aunts house and she had a GE top loader from about 2000-2001 and i always liked how it sounded. Yesterday I was on Craigslist and saw a very similar model for about 75$ so I bought it. I hooked it up today and i wasn’t used to the smaller capacity (i think it’s about 2.7 c.f.) but man oh man it’s been a long time I haven’t felt clothes that are actually clean. The smell is wow and even thought the straight vane agitator takes a long time to turn clothes over it actually washes them. I’m so happy of my purchase and will sell my maxima pair and will never look back to front loaders again. Also the sound of that washer takes me back when I was in my aunts bathroom and used to put my finger in the lid switch and watch the washer do it’s thing and feel the steam of the hot water hit my face and the smell of bleach (she liked her white sheets to be really clean) and would get my stool that was at her house to reach the lid. Man those were the good times and I would give anything to go back.
