Is it constant regardless of wash cycle selection?
How about rinse cycles?

I read another post that stated normal wash cycle is often water saving for He modern washers but not necessarily all cycles are as stingey.
For some reason i imagine that it refers to TL machines more..
But then again may be not.
Anyhow all thoughts on the matter appreciated, thx in advance.

For the 2015 Speed Queen Front Load Washer

The water level is consistent during the wash and rinse part of the cycle. There is less water used in the normal/eco mode cycle, which is the water conservation cycle, but I only use the heavy or white cycles. The clothes are always saturated with enough water such that they are dripping wet. With larger loads the washer does add more water to ensure the clothes are saturated. The washer does seem to measure the water level in the tub to ensure there is always water at the bottom of the drum to keep wetting the clothes as they tumble.
 
There is no means to reset the water level that I am aware of. If you hit the pause button the washer drains the water then stops to allow you to add more clothes or redistribute the clothes, etc. Then when you restart the wash it refills and continues. That is all I am aware of.
 
Just saying...

Oh, so the only option is to drain perfectly good hot (luke?) soapy water and start over from scratch? Oh yeah, that's 'eco' alright.

Funny, my illegal-alien Frigidaire-badged 1998 Electrosuck euro FL will let you open the door and add at any time. It also takes less than a half hour for a full cycle and has 5 rinses using actual water. You know, water? That stuff that falls out of the sky for free except in California.

I'm reminded of Back to the Future II where the timeline skewed and Biff was a national hero. [eyeroll] [groan] Great Scott!
