We just bought the Maytag Bravos XL. It was a floor model with a decent markdown. I was nervous about getting a high efficiency washer, but saw enough helpful reviews to be okay with buying one. I came across this video and all of the negative comments after the fact. But I have to say we've had no problems with our new washing machine. It does what it needs to do and works well for us. There is plenty of water to get the clothes clean, and it agitates the clothes enough to do the job. The spin cycle is pretty awesome and gives our dryer less work to do. It's a matter of loading the clothes differently, making sure you measure the correct amount of HE detergent, and using the right wash setting. Now, for heavily soiled clothes, we haven't tested it yet, so we'll see. But it does just as good of a job washing the clothes as a machine with the old agitators. Plus it's made in the U.S. We'll see if our water bill does better than in the past. Will keep you posted.
BlooMoonface Is it still working ok for you? I'm sorta nervous now. Yesterday, we bought a matching Whirlpool HE top loader washer & dryer pair (it's not being delivered until the middle of the month, we're moving in a few weeks). Anyways, looking at the video, I never expected it to use so little water. We have pets, so I'm kinda worried if it actually gets things clean.
BlooMoonface I just bought a HE topload washer and was a little concerned by some videos of low water washes but my clothes do come clean. However, you must learn how to use the cycles and sometimes use DEEP water option w/heavy soiled settings and extra rinse if you have kids with food stains all the time. Also I have found my washer to use plenty of water and clean well with normal cycles without selecting extra water if theres no significant stains. Ive had my washer for about 1month(5.3 Cabrio).
This video really helped me because I thought I had a malfunctioning machine which was just installed. I wasn't use to all of the weird sounds and thought my agitator was broken because it sounded like it was working very hard and my old machine was quiet, and a front loader. This video is so worth watching!
Having worked on major appliances for 40 years, I can say with some authority that the top load HE washers, no matter which brand it is, are cheaply constructed, and will not clean clothes as well as a traditional washer that fills with 20 gallons or so of water, and has an agitator to move the clothing within that water. Although Whilp does have a machine with an agitator currently, water levels are still reduced by comparison, and it, like almost all washers made today, are computer controlled. This presents it's own set of problems. Sure it can somewhat diagnose it's own failures, and point you in the right direction to repair, but the operational parts and the control are pricey, and if you cant repair it yourself, it will cost half as much as a new machine or more to repair the washer. Whirlpool washers built before 2011, referred to as Direct Drive models, built between 1987 and 2011, are by far the best and easiest machines to repair when they break down. If I were forced to buy a new machine today, the Speed Queen analog timer or the computer controlled machines are a good option, they should last 15 or more years and have a good factory warranty as well. Other than that, as they cost a lot more than the VMW, Vertical Modular Washer by Whirlpool, at 400 bucks, would be my choice. Roper is made by Whirlpool as is Amana, Kitchen Aid, Estate, Maytag, and several more brand names. The VMW is a belt driven system with a reduction gearbox, and other more expensive models use a direct drive motor under the tub, not to be confused with the earlier models I described as Direct Drive. Good luck.
I agree! HE models are useless for cleaning even summer weight down comforters or bedding. These machines were designed by bureaucrats that have never done a single load of laundry in their lives, or there would have been provisions for heavy loads and comforters!
Got a new Samsung, doesn’t fill with enough water. Worthless piece of junk. I guess I’ll just wash my clothes in the creek. HE is a scam, I bet the politicians invested heavily in this garbage technology.
I have one also and it works great. My clothes are always fully cleaned. Not sure why you are all having so much trouble. This was the best washer I have had ever. It's been great for pillows and bulky sheets as well. Sucks to be you people. I love my HE no agitator washer!
What brand do you have? I bought an LG. One of the problems I have is if I set it up and it starts filling and then I realize I've used the wrong setting, ie normal and need bulky. If I change it, it then senses the water already in it to determine how much water it needs, thus wasting water.
A front loader washer is always the best I been buying front loader washer for such a long time and don't forget the.old Wrangler type machine that bring back old memories smile grandma use to have when we younger
At the end she says that it spun so fast that it left dry patches on the shirt...are you kidding me? If she believes that, then I have some swamp land that has dry patches where she can build her new house. But she needs to hurry because I'm selling it cheap!
Dry patches on clothes at the end of the cycle?? Of course - that's because the clothes never got totally wet to start with!! LOLOL!!! What a load of *** she is trying to sell.
@Kevin Cook Are you correcting me? I give everyone an extra second so they don't miss anything. Because 1.) I am a courteous guy & 2.) This is important stuff!
@Kevin Cook lol ok no worries. I'm just being funny. It's a weird video. I don't even know why I watched or commented. I just thought that was a funny thing for the narrator to say.
Just purchased my first speed queen set. Water fills all the way up and clothes are forced down. No wonder people are preferring the old fashioned water and dryers
ShyRage1 Wise move! You should get years and years (20-25 years) of service from your Speed Queen set! There's a reason why the laundromats love these machines. Sadly, even the new Maytag commercial (read: COMMERCIAL) grade machines are cheap garbage, since they use a plastic clutch and a plastic outer tub.
I have a 20 y.o. front-load washer 4KG ~ 8.8 lb. The shortest programm is around 40minutes and it does the job. (washing, 2 or 3 rinses and spinning around 800rpm) Sometimes if I use too much detergents, cloths need one more rinse so I can not believe that one rinse in this video work.. Also I can decide how much kilograms I put into it (1, 2, 3, 4) so it doses the water accordingly to the amount of clothes. I would never but this HE machine lol
Funny. The Westinghouse Front load washer from about 1940 was a high-efficiency washer that used less water . One use ALL detergent to not create mess of suds. All was a HE detergent 50 years before the term was coined.
I know Im randomly asking but does anyone know a way to get back into an instagram account?? I was stupid forgot my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
My roommate bought one for the house to replace our old broken down washer. I don't care what any of these high tech geeks say. No way these H.E. washers clean better than a traditional washer. It saves water & energy? Yes I'll definitely give you that . Clean better? F__k no!
Wet your clothes before starting the cycle and your tub will fill! The sensor weighs your clothes..that's why it doesn't fill..which I agree was a stupid idea!
I want a washer with an agitator. In the 60's we had washers the were advertised as having a "jet actio" agitator.'..... NOW, we lightly toss them around, and coax the dirt out of them by being "gentle".......... I want a washer that all but rips my clothes a new one, and is dancing and bouncing across the room with my clothes in an effort to get them clean. Then when it is finished it's smoking a cigarette........... THEN and only then, will I know my clothes have been cleaned.
That is what I found. If we could only learn how to manage the water we have available to us we wouldn't have these BS "saving water", disaster machines. We've had tons of water here in Texas in the last few days........but it simply runs in to rivers....... then in to the Gulf...... hmmm, gotta think up something for that. That should be the focus...... by those smarter that me.
+Mickey Cook Speed Queen is still out there, and they're pretty close to the same as the ones you remember from the old coin laundry. They weigh a bit more than a '54 Packard Patrician, and they have the best warranty in the industry. Expect to pay MSRP, but they're competitively priced with mid-range home center models.
I just got the Samsung washer today.I have to say it depends on which cycle you put it on.If you want the machine to fill with a good bit of water put it on the permanent press cycle....I did it and my clothes were fully submerged in the water and got very clean...Also washed a king size comforter in the machine and it came out very clean and very dry...Don't knock it till you try it,and make sure you test all the cycles to find out which works best for you.Good luck folks.
I got mine today & I've been looking online & reading the manual to see about foaming but I haven't found anything. Mine doesn't seem to make absolutely any foam, I use the HE detergent like it says in the manual. Does your washer do the same or is mine defective?
Yeah, same here with me. It looks like it doesn't have enough water and doesn't clean well. I will probably have to wash my clothes twice to get it clean. These washers are very expensive. I am glad I bought a dual action agitator top loader.
I owned this washer for 8 years and it died do to a motor problem, our washer was the dud, it worked extremely well in 8 years we had 3 issues one of them being caused from user error. It would clean clothes provided you loaded the clothes no higher then halfway, and even that was pushing it. Our model had no controller issues and in fact used more water then most other models of the bravos at the time. The washer would clean best on the bulky cycle for obvious reasons, but i was able to get a half tub water level on most cycles by tricking the washer. All in all I give my maytag bravos a solid 6.5/10 star rating and I'm glad to get a new washer.
I'm in appliance repair business and 70% what we fixing these days are all new style HE washers. Old school Kenmore (Whirlpool ) washers are bullet proof ,last for 20 years and more and if something happened repair parts still available and estimates are 2-3 times less then those fancy full of plastic and electronics HE washers. Old is gold!
With these POS washers, it's better to always use the 'bulky' setting with the 'extra rinse' option. As well to add laundry boosters such as Oxi Clean or Baking Soda.
When using fabric softener, you will also need to push the fabric softener button to ensure dispensing at the appropriate time and at the proper amount of rinse water.
Thank you. I recently bought a 2 year-old Wirlpool h.e. washer ($220) and was concerned about the motor noise. I'm glad to know mine sounds normal now.
***** First of all, front loaders use even less water. Second, I'm sure your nurse maid is still trying to clean the skid marks from your tightie whities. Do the world a favor, learn, educate yourself. Don't be an ignoramus all your life.
Bryan Hodges Pretreating stains???? What??? Why have a washer for if I have to pretreat? A good machine should and would get them clean without you having to do anything else than just drop 'em in, add detergent, select cycle and that is, I have never pretreated anything on my ge filter-flo and my speed queen top-loaders, can't really say that of the front loaders, even less the HE toploaders like this. I also have a small italian/european 220 volt front loader with an heater and even by selecting boil wash (water actually boiling) delivers whites with stains etc, my toploaders always delivered spotless whites with 140F tap water at max.. the laundry coming out my toploaders is always spotless...I have seen how the laundry comes out these HE toploaders and they're not even worth being called "washing machines"..... it's not that they don't wash well/good, what they do it's not even classificable as "washing"...
Can you cut the price in half and give me a washer and dryer that doesn't have 100+ "special" features to it. Just wash and dry the damn clothes, all this extra crap is not needed. Just leads to more issues and stuff messing up.
There will come a time when something on your old washer breaks that cannot be replaced and you are forced to replace it. That is what happened to my 28 year old Whirlpool washer. I was forced into the market for a replacement pair and ended up with a Maytag model 950 pair. I am very happy with the results. I will say the new set is unlikely to last 28 years because they just do not make them like they used to so I enjoy them while they are working fine.
I spite of many negative reviews I have to say that my 9 year old Maytag Bravos X cleans well and spins the clothes very dry. It took awhile to get used to the new sounds but I like the machine.
I never knew how top loader HE washer worked. this was very informative. thank you so much! it was quite interesting. my front loader HE washer spins at 1800rpm. it sounds like a rocket taking off
Laundry detergents of greater concentration promote wear on clothing. I often offset the water to detergent ratio to keep my clothing clean, colorful and strong in resistance to tearing or fraying for years to come. Obviously, never putting concentrated detergent directly on clothing but rather diluting evenly as possible while the tub fills with cold water. Another advantage of having your laundry displaced with a greater amount of water, is due to the water providing abrasion resistance. This allows your detergent to serve its purpose, rather than removing debris by means of friction.
I HATE my HE washer !!!!! The old ' agitator' washer was the best !!! I guess I will have to look for one at a second hand store--New is not always the best !
I just bought a GE from Home Depot, no returns. Called GE to see about exchanging it for one with water fill selection and agitator.... they are sending a repairman out! I'm out 600.00 when all I want is an exchange! These washers will never clean your clothes!!!!!
Speed Queen AWN632SP116TW01, product code TC5000WN. Not inexpensive, but they use enough water to clean the clothes, and the machines are designed for twenty-five year longevity.
I feel for you, and I am sorry that you had to go through this kind of experience of wasting your money on this new technology. I hope you can financially recover and get an old-style washer again. That's the way new technology works when manufacturers upgrade downward. No doubt there will be thousands of these HE washers ending up in landfills to pollute the earth even further as thousands of homeowners go back to old-style washers and leave thousands more of the new washers sitting unpurchased and unused in manufacturers' warehouses.
I'm an Appliance service technician. You cant sell me on the wash plate. I sat an agitator unit and a wash plate unit side by side after servicing. First I ran a load of blue jeans with the wash plate unit. Then ran the same load over in the agitator unit and the amount of dirt that the agitator beat out of the jeans was quite a bit. So the wash plate unit only rearranges the dirt.
John Culbertson, if you're an appliance service technician and you say those kinds of things about wash plates, that only validates what I have thought about wash plates and these new washers all along. These clothes washer manufacturers really annoy me with their new clothes washer washing ideas that only a stupid public would buy into, and then the public has to learn the hard way, and then when the public does learn the hard way, thousands of new modern washing machines will end up in landfills after those who bought all the new washers throw all the new washers out and end up buying REAL clothes washers. All the manufacturers are trying to get is sales without considering whether their new machines actually work. They ought to be ashamed of themselves.
It really depends on the design. A friend has a .8 gallon Toto toilet that will seriously flush anything. The 1.6 in my apartment is utterly useless requiring holding the handle down until it uses a good 2.5-3 gallons. A well designed HE washer will clean very well and be efficient, but only a well designed one. Since most people are enticed to write reviews with a sweepstakes or giveaway promotion it's tough to know what you're buying until it's too late.
Thank you...this video really explained the functioning of my machine and I have been using it improperly now for almost a year. But now it all makes sense.
Get a Speed Queen when you are ready. Go to their website and have one deleivered. It's what the laundromats use for a reason. The home use washers are the same thing.
My mom used to work for Sears more than 5 years ago before they went out of business. She had went to a seminar 10 years ago, and there was a demonstration of a he top loader washer, and everyone just walked away because it wasn’t doing the right job. That’s why I will never own a HE top loader washer, especially if it is goin to use significantly less water, meaning that there would be no possible way that the clothes would get clean, because using lots of water and detergent to clean clothes effectively and thoroughly is part of what’s considered personal hygiene. I sure miss the good old Kenmore washers from the 1970s. Why? I love the old school knobs, rotoswirl agitator, belt drive, lots of water, each load takes a half an hour, plus clothes are completely clean every time. Plus it would save me time and money.
Finding ways to conserve resources and energy is not and should not necessarily be a bad thing. However, when certain ideas such as he low water appliances (which are horribly ineffective and unreliable) are forced down the public's collective throat, without regard for sound design and consideration of the right to choose, people can feel and clearly see their rights are being violated. The clueless idiots in the regulatory ivory tower responsible for creating this debacle need to wake up and realize there are many ways an individual or community can conserve water and energy other than solely pointing the finger at washing machines. Using an adequate amount of water to EFFECTIVELY wash clothes is not and never has been considered a waste of resources because it is considered part of our personal hygiene. Something has got to give already!
Nick You're right about that. The low water toilets are terrible also. These enviromentalists need to learn how to find more meaningful ways of protecting the environment other than influencing the Government to create stupid and baseless regulations.
I just read that NY Times article. I also remember the testing results where he quoted from Consumer Reports. John Tierney wrote a grossly inaccurate comment. When he quoted "Not so long ago, you could count on most washers to get your clothes very clean. Not anymore. Our latest tests found huge performance differences among machines. Some left our stain-soaked swatches nearly as dirty as they were before washing. For best results, you’ll have to spend $900 or more." End of part 1
I am glad I never owned (and never will own) any of this HE washers. I understand how people feel about this top load HE washer. I have a front load LG steam washer and dryer and i had problems with it too. I have to even run the dryer twice to get my clothes dried totally. When my LG set breaks, then My next set will be the vintage old school washer and dryer set from the 70s or the 80’s. Notice that the clothes barely even got wet during and after the wash cycle, the dry spots on the clothes indicate that they might still be dirty. My mother would never own this washer. I have used one of these before and my clothes were still not clean, stunk pretty bad. Either the LG Gets replaced with a vintage set, or as a last resort, we will be getting a SPEED QUEEN.
Agree with Jerome! the blue shirt didn't move very much during the wash. Clothes 'rubbing against each other' doesn't clean them. HE means Hee hee, sucker you fell for the oldest con in the book! Less water and less detergent means cleaner clothes by rubbing them together! What a scam. I think I will go with agitator version.
These people think we're stupid! HE washers are the biggest scam in the HISTORY of humanity! Point blank period! Do yourselves a favor and get a Speed Queen Classic set. Use the heavy duty cycle for everyday loads.
I have had mine for 3 years, and I NEVER knew that I was supposed to spread clothes around the outside of the basket and not over the center of the wash plate!!
They do still make top load washers with agitators. I buy and sell washers and dryers and I get them in all the time. I have several right now. I actually try to stay away from the washers that don't have an agitator and I never buy or sell a front load.
what's the problem with a front load? I had one once, it was ok, but when i moved i got rid of it and got a maytag bravos which i regret. Neither clean as well as an old fashion washer imo.. but i'm all ears as to what you have to say
Tip to manufacturers of this type of washer... it is not high efficiency if the clothes are twisted up damp for twenty minutes. Double the water and install a side vessel to save the used water in. We will do whites first and darks second, in enough water to save our clothes and the water.
We had this type of washer (Maytag Bravos) and liked it at first until we noticed our clothes weren't getting clean. So, we sold it on Craigslist (although it should've just been thrown away) and bought a Samsung front loader. I modified the front loader so it adds more water and it's worked great for us. However, once it dies, we will be getting a Speed Queen. By the way: the "Clean Washer" cycle on the Bravos/Cabrio models throws the HE of these machines out the window. It uses a TON of water. This cycle has to be done monthly or a dirt ring will develop around the tub.
Sorry, just seeing this now. The Samsung front loader worked quite well for several years. I ended up getting rid of it when it took longer and longer to spin out a load (maybe a balance sensor going out?). Also, I saw spider arm bits in the drain clean out basket. It was replaced by a LG front loader (SQ got pushed off for now) which has been an alright washer. I'd definitely recommend a newer LG front loader over a newer Samsung. Let me know if you want more details.
This is the funniest video I have seen in a while. Watching these barely damp clothes spin around while the narrator pretends that they are being cleaned has me crying with laughter. Run this exact video as an SNL skit and it will get many laughs.
The higher voltage also makes a difference when it comes to vacuum cleaner suction. Which might explain why Scandinavian homes always look so immaculate... :D
At 7:00, “you may notice some dry spots on some clothes.” Yup, that part of the clothes didn’t get cleaned or agitated to the bottom where the water is.
How soo?? Just because you could have a dry spot on a certain part of the clothing, does not mean that it did not get washed. Perhaps the spinning made it like that.
Andrew Addison seeing the way this thing agitates with so little water, I can see how it’s possible for maybe a small part of the clothes to never touch the water.
@@boostedmaniac Actually the water pushes up within the clothes due to the friction. Certain parts of the clothes will stick out and go right into the water in which is normal. Just do not mixed heavy set of jogger pants with clothes that are less heavy, which is why I will do my shirts/underwear/socka all together first before doing my shorts/jeans/jogger pants next. Lastly is when I will do my cmforter or bedding sheets last, which is why they recommend sorting out your laundry first before entering them right into the washer to be washed. People tend to forget to sort out their clothes first before entering them right into the washer itself.
Andrew Addison if I’m ever forced to go HE, I’ll prob try to find a way to fit a front loader in my laundry room. My room is small and the laundry room door opens right in front of the washer which makes it’s preferable for top loader, but so far I’m not too convinced of the performance of these.
I wish I would have seen this video sooner I purchased mine three weeks ago and it is a piece of junk it does not wash your clothes do not waste your money
+Sabrosita Pr You're 10000000% correct. I also wished I would have seen this video before. I purchased a GE HE and I can't tell you how much I miss my old Whirlpool and agitator. This thing is a freakin' joke. Mine has a huge drum but doesn't make use of it because the water only fills half the drum. It tears my clothes up because it doesn't have enough water. There are more stains on my clothes than ever. I purchased the GE with the "deep fill" option, but that's a joke. They call "deep fill" water option that only fills halfwayl. My clothes were cleaner with my old Whirlpool. I don't care that this is HE and saves water, what good is it if doesn't get clothes clean? I rather spend more money on water and have clean clothes than deal with stains and wrinkled up clothes. This isn't energy efficient because since you could only use small loads at a time, you will be washing clothes for a longer period of time. Each load on my GE is an hr because it takes a longer time to get clothes from the top to come in contact with the water on the bottom.
How is this different than if I were to haul all of my laundry down to the river, evenly distribute a load onto a rock, splash some river water and spritz a bit of premixed soapy water onto the load then commence beating it with a stick??
I really NEED a mechanical washer, with maybe three cycles and three load settings and definitely with an agitator. These crazy sensors increase the price and decrease my patience! I'm NOT a rocket scientist and not about to start being one now. Please, I BEG YOU! Make a purely mechanical washer again! Please!
Speed Queen Makes The TC5, although it is heavy duty dials connected to a panel, that is the same panel that are in the commercial machines at the laundromat. It has no lid lock, 5 Cycles, You set half or full water level and it washes just like the 70's machines.
I bought a HE washer a few months ago and hate it. I've tried everything to get it to clean my clothes and have had to resort to presoaking certain things to get them clean. I just bought a used agitator washer and am happy as heck to have a good washer again! But I'm out a lot of money on the new "efficient" Maytag that I don't use anymore.
This water savings mantra has got to stop. Water is a continually renewable resource. We are being force fed this propoganda to use less so the elites can have it all. Just goes to show what happens when a country forgets God and pushes him out of public life. We have sewn to the wind and we will reap the whirlwind.
pat cola sir I am not sure about the west but there are countries where there is severe water scarcity and times where we don’t take bath for a week to save water for drinking . Countries like this do exist but whichever country you are with abundant water God bless you
Perhaps the only way for these type of washer to work effectively is to install a gravity plate from Star Trek to one of the sides. During operation, clothes will gravitate toward the side with the plate and be tumbled by the rotating basket akin to how front loaders work.
I have been using a Maytag Bravos washer for about a month now and I am amazed at how clean the clothes are after they have been washed. I usually use the deep water wash setting with medium soil and I can definitely tell how much cleaner the clothes are now than when I was using a washer with an agitator. At first I thought I would return it, thinking, how in the world can the clothes get clean with that little amount of water. The key is the clothes get so much cleaner because the way the washer works it is like it is hand washing the clothes. My wife is from the Philippines where most people hand wash clothes and always complained how the washer would not get certain clothes clean so she would hand wash them. Since this washer uses such a small amount of water the clothes are like being hand washed by the machine since they rub together, get agitated, etc. If you use the machine the way the instructions say the clothes should be MUCH cleaner than with an agitator. I am not exaggerating when I say I can definitely tell a difference in the clean of the clothes. We also were using a top quality whirlpool washer with agitator before it quit, bearing went out. I hope to fix it and use it for back up.
I have sold appliances for over 10 years and I TELL YOU these HE washers work amazingly well! The only thing I disagree with on this particular video is that when you put the clothes in, you should put them in like you are putting them in a hamper - do NOT only put the on the outside of the tub. When you do that, it is harder for the washer to fully agitate and THAT is what causes some of your clothes to have dry spots. BUT having said that, dry spots does NOT mean they did not clean well. We are all used to water = clean and that simply has been disproven. The fact is that you need enough water to dilute the detergent and disperse the cleaner throughout the clothing but you do NOT need gallons and gallons of water. With lots of water, you need to use lots of detergent. Less water, less detergent is needed. I know these aren't for everybody but despite a lot of comments here, they absolutely DO work and they are very gentle on your clothes too.
Hi Susan, I would love to agree with your comment here, but then we would both be wrong. The truth of the matter lies with the chemical and hydrodynamic properties of water itself. Water has a finite saturation point. It can only adsorb so much soil matter / contaminate into solution or suspension before it be becomes ineffective. Laundry, when placed into a given volume of water and agitated will impart whatever soils and contaminants present into the water. The job water has to accomplish is to dilute, absorb, and flush these contaminants from the clothes BEFORE it reaches its saturation point. Once this point is reached, you are no longer cleaning. You are rearranging and spreading around soils not removing them. The smaller the volume of water used, the sooner you reach this saturation point. This is why water volume IS crucial and the more the BETTER. This is also why he washers need self cleaning cycles. There simply is not enough water volume used in the washing and rinsing cycles to flush out the residues from the machine. Bacteria, soils, bodily fluids, surfactants etc. build up in the outer drum of the washer causing it to smell bad. The he concept is an example of a complex government agenda once again overreaching and abusing it's authority. An average size American family uses more water using the lavatory in two days than a traditional washer uses in two weeks.
+Susan Headley I bought a new washer this year. I bought a Speed Queen, the Mercedes Benz of washers. My Speed Queens washes in 28 minutes start to finish, clothes NEVER have to be rewashed, ALL the soap is rinsed out, and, yes, it uses 54 gallons of water PER CYCLE. I'm happy.
+Susan Headley Sorry, I've got one and disagree. So I would say I'm speaking from experience. I think you are biased because you sell them. If I wanted to be crass I would say you've been drinking too much of the kool-aid.
+Mike Bennett Bravo; well said. It sounds like an answer by someone with some actual education about the subject (and not a salesperson who has an agenda).
+MB MC Thank you for the compliment MB MC. Lately, it seems quite apparent to me that most of the major appliance manufacturers care more about profits and less about engineering quality products with sound designs. The regulators and environmentalists behind this he washer debacle seem to have little to no scientific knowledge. It is obvious their regulations were made without having adequate scientific research to base them on.
I have a Maytag Bravos top load, and I love it! My clothes come out very clean, stains and all! I have never pulled out any clothes that had “dry spots”.
I'm about ready to go to an appliance repair store and find me an old fashion washer and dryer. We paid $1000.00 a piece for this crap. Feel like an idiot. This young repair guy came out and said , you need to only use a 1/4 cup of detergent in a full load. And ma'am your not doing your laundry correctly. I looked at that little boy and said young man I have been doing laundry before your mother was born. You have 30 seconds to get your computer and your ass off my property.
After watching this, I think my several year old Maytag Centennial is, in fact, broken, and always has been. It doesn't seem to spin/agitate/whatever you want to call it like the way this top loader does. It moves a tiny bit each direction, not early as much as this does. (it does spin to rinse, though)
Nothing beats the old tried and true front loading washer. They are naturally efficient, gentle on clothes and the basic design has been around for many decades. I love my Samsung. It has performed flawlessly for years..
Save your money people,buy a washer that has an agitator,I made the mistake of buying one of these new washers and dryer and they use twice as much water because you have to wash the clothes 3 and 4 times and that's no lie,and the cycles are much longer than the old washers,and they cost a lot more mine was 900 and some change what a joke
Even washers with an "agitator" are still HE washers. The only old school washing machines still around are Speed Queen unless you buy an older used washing machine.
@@jeromedavis8575 that’s exactly what I went to buy unfortunately the wife wanted matching washer and dryer so here we are,it is fine for people that work in an office,but if you get good and grimy as I always manage to do im using a bit of Dawn dish washing soap and bleach to try to get my hi vis shirts clean they always look like I didn’t wash them it’s embarrassing 😳
I can see from the comments below I'm not the only one who thinks these new washers are all BS, save your money and buy a washer with an agitator,the type that pull the clothes under and through the water to get them clean
My family had our washer for more than 15 years. It was only until Summer of this year that it finally broke beyond repair and found out about HE washers. I don't mind the change. The agitator would always tangle my clothes when finished.
Did you cover the center of the wash plate? I just used one of these washers for the first time and did not read the part that said not to cover the middle of it. It didn't fill with water like it was supposed to, but when I restarted the cycle with it loaded correctly it filled with water. Hope that helps
I hope Kenmore manufacturers see this, this is a joke! I purchased the 500 Series yesterday and it's going back! Water doesn't even fill 3-4 inches and the rest of my clothes smell more than before! Lol I'm very disappointed!
---- NEWER IS NOT BETTER --- it's just new --- I was excited the day my Bravos arrived, thinking my clothes wouldn't be twisted into knots or buttons torn off by a poorly designed agitator (I called my Kenmore "The Ripper"). I chose the Bravos for spin speed and the expectation of clean and unmolested clothes. Unknowingly I GAVE UP A WAY OF LIFE my appliance afforded me to have. NOW I give up days instead of hours to do the same amount of laundry. NOW waste water in the kitchen sink to pre-treat / soak items that once were taken care of inside the washer with the lid open while the tub filled with water. NOW this "Soak Joke" Bravos makes water fill sounds, does nothing for 20 mins, then drains gallons of water and soap. NOW gallons of wasted water vs previously able to fill tub, open the lid, soak overnight then in the morning close the lid and the wash cycle continues, not wasting an extra drop of water. Bonus: No extra rinse was needed. NOW the Bravos it never, never gets all the soap out, no matter how little I use. NOW I'm forced to use the Extra Rinse all the time. This thing twists and scours clothing ruthlessly due to lack of water. Washed a queen size mattress pad in this pathetic machine, yet still caked in YUCK! Maytag will not get another penny from me for the rest of my 60+ years on this planet. Newton IA manufacturing plant will have layoffs and that's bad for our fellow families must suffer because of piss poor decisions and practice. I am ashamed of US manufacturers, they just make sh*t and expect us to like it. As long as I have free will and live in the United States, I will never, never buy another Maytag nor any other "New" washing machine. They can kiss my ass*.
@@JoshuaAndMom The reason my Kenmore didn't make it was the Great Flood of 2008, my home was no match for 31' of river water. Everything I said is true... I did nickname my washer "The Ripper" due to its aggressive agitator and fell for Maytags' marketing, but you'll be glad to know I did replace the hated Bravos with a manual knob control Speed Queen! She absolutely RULES!
I have this machine. It seems to wash ok. What I do not like is that apparently some water is left behind and not drained. This causes a sewer odor that must be remedied by running a special "clean with afresh" cycle. You can see it on this video. This cycle can have no clothes and uses 100% hot water. The Afresh tablets cost about $5 each and this must be done about every 2-3 months. I wonder how much of the efficiency this cancels out?
Older models don't get your clothes clean because there is little to no water. Newer models use more water and actually gets your clothes clean. They are also more reliable.
To think I replaced a 30 yr old GE top loader having an agitator, lint basket, recirc pump, and mechanical selector switch for an HE Maytag Bravo top loader that doesn't clean clothes. It takes water, an agitator, and lint basket to really clean clothes. It has no way to remove pine needles, wood chips, or grass clippings, so leaves them in the bottom of the wash tub. That means you need a shop vac stationed near the washer to clean it out. It captures coins under the pretend agitator and ties clothes in knots, intertwined with other clothes. It prides itself on creating the sharpest wrinkles clothes ever had. Need to select "Bulky" setting to use any water. Sets LD (long drain) code frequently, then won't drain without unplugging for 10 minutes, then trying the drain and spin cycle which takes another 10 minutes. If there is so much as one or two soap bubbles, the LD code crops up. Yep, you can disassemble the thing and keep cleaning the pump and filter but these parts should be easily accessed like the old lint basket. I'd swear that the engineers who design this stuff don't do their own laundry. Four years of aggravation from this POS. The high dollar "clean washer" pellets are a joke, too. No money saved, there. Time to find another brand with agitator. Money saved on water doesn't make up for having to service or buy a new washer this often.
+old 50Grit "to remove pine needles, wood chips, or grass clippings", there is no washing machine on earth that can flush that stuff down the drain. I know, I not only repair washing machines but also do laundry. What ends up happening is that garbage gets stuck under the agitator, eventually winding up on future laundry loads. you need to more thoroughly remove debris from your clothes or suck it up and vacuum the machine if you're going to be putting that stuff in there.
You should have held on to the old GE and just got it fixed. Thank god I never owned an HE top load washer because running the machine for 2 hours costs a lot of money on the electric bill, even on front loaders. I have an LG front loader and it does its job. And hopefully it will last me a long time, and if it breaks, I guess I will buy a speed queen or a vintage washer from the secondhand appliance retailer. I would NEVER recommend wasting money on a HE washer to anybody, especially over the fact that the clothes aren't even getting cleaned. and all this HE nonsense that EPA and Energy Star just started. You can also still find a 1975 Whirlpool washer, or a 1980s Kenmore 70 Series Heavy Duty Plus, or a vintage 1980s GE filter Flo at a used appliance shop or marketplace, thrift store, or even at a local flea market. They just don't make appliances like they used to.
My clothes move through the time it takes for a whole washing cycle. The video only shows a short snippet time of the washing cycle. So far, my clothes come out as clean as the front loader I had before this new one.
We just bought the Maytag Bravos XL. It was a floor model with a decent markdown. I was nervous about getting a high efficiency washer, but saw enough helpful reviews to be okay with buying one. I came across this video and all of the negative comments after the fact. But I have to say we've had no problems with our new washing machine. It does what it needs to do and works well for us. There is plenty of water to get the clothes clean, and it agitates the clothes enough to do the job. The spin cycle is pretty awesome and gives our dryer less work to do. It's a matter of loading the clothes differently, making sure you measure the correct amount of HE detergent, and using the right wash setting. Now, for heavily soiled clothes, we haven't tested it yet, so we'll see. But it does just as good of a job washing the clothes as a machine with the old agitators. Plus it's made in the U.S. We'll see if our water bill does better than in the past. Will keep you posted.
***** Yup. So far, so good.
BlooMoonface Is it still working ok for you? I'm sorta nervous now. Yesterday, we bought a matching Whirlpool HE top loader washer & dryer pair (it's not being delivered until the middle of the month, we're moving in a few weeks). Anyways, looking at the video, I never expected it to use so little water. We have pets, so I'm kinda worried if it actually gets things clean.
BlooMoonface I just bought a HE topload washer and was a little concerned by some videos of low water washes but my clothes do come clean. However, you must learn how to use the cycles and sometimes use DEEP water option w/heavy soiled settings and extra rinse if you have kids with food stains all the time. Also I have found my washer to use plenty of water and clean well with normal cycles without selecting extra water if theres no significant stains. Ive had my washer for about 1month(5.3 Cabrio).
This video really helped me because I thought I had a malfunctioning machine which was just installed. I wasn't use to all of the weird sounds and thought my agitator was broken because it sounded like it was working very hard and my old machine was quiet, and a front loader. This video is so worth watching!
Does she think we're stupid? Clearly the clothes NEVER touched the water. Not a goddamn piece!
@@jeromedavis8575u have a dam good point
Having worked on major appliances for 40 years, I can say with some authority that the top load HE washers, no matter which brand it is, are cheaply constructed, and will not clean clothes as well as a traditional washer that fills with 20 gallons or so of water, and has an agitator to move the clothing within that water. Although Whilp does have a machine with an agitator currently, water levels are still reduced by comparison, and it, like almost all washers made today, are computer controlled. This presents it's own set of problems. Sure it can somewhat diagnose it's own failures, and point you in the right direction to repair, but the operational parts and the control are pricey, and if you cant repair it yourself, it will cost half as much as a new machine or more to repair the washer. Whirlpool washers built before 2011, referred to as Direct Drive models, built between 1987 and 2011, are by far the best and easiest machines to repair when they break down. If I were forced to buy a new machine today, the Speed Queen analog timer or the computer controlled machines are a good option, they should last 15 or more years and have a good factory warranty as well. Other than that, as they cost a lot more than the VMW, Vertical Modular Washer by Whirlpool, at 400 bucks, would be my choice. Roper is made by Whirlpool as is Amana, Kitchen Aid, Estate, Maytag, and several more brand names. The VMW is a belt driven system with a reduction gearbox, and other more expensive models use a direct drive motor under the tub, not to be confused with the earlier models I described as Direct Drive. Good luck.
I agree! HE models are useless for cleaning even summer weight down comforters or bedding. These machines were designed by bureaucrats that have never done a single load of laundry in their lives, or there would have been provisions for heavy loads and comforters!
I pray my Kenmore 70 series keeps running like a champ! No issues as well as my Kenmore dryer ... Old School and clean /dry very well....
Got a new Samsung, doesn’t fill with enough water. Worthless piece of junk. I guess I’ll just wash my clothes in the creek. HE is a scam, I bet the politicians invested heavily in this garbage technology.
so cool, now I know why my new washer sounds the way it does. Thanks for this very informative and professional video.
I have one also and it works great. My clothes are always fully cleaned. Not sure why you are all having so much trouble. This was the best washer I have had ever. It's been great for pillows and bulky sheets as well. Sucks to be you people. I love my HE no agitator washer!
What brand do you have? I bought an LG. One of the problems I have is if I set it up and it starts filling and then I realize I've used the wrong setting, ie normal and need bulky. If I change it, it then senses the water already in it to determine how much water it needs, thus wasting water.
I've had the HE washer for about 6 months. Am very pleased with it. ( Whirlpool)
A front loader washer is always the best I been buying front loader washer for such a long time and don't forget the.old Wrangler type machine that bring back old memories smile grandma use to have when we younger
At the end she says that it spun so fast that it left dry patches on the shirt...are you kidding me? If she believes that, then I have some swamp land that has dry patches where she can build her new house. But she needs to hurry because I'm selling it cheap!
Best thing I've read all day
Lol! 😂 Yes ma’am I agree!
The new products are becoming more of a headache than helpful.
Dry patches on clothes at the end of the cycle?? Of course - that's because the clothes never got totally wet to start with!! LOLOL!!! What a load of *** she is trying to sell.

MOst of those clothes stay on top. They dont even go down to get cleaned..
I traded my washer in for a tub and boardnow my clothes come out stotless
My phat azz is buying a speed queen!!! WHoo!! hoo!!
right
Just purchased my first speed queen set. Water fills all the way up and clothes are forced down. No wonder people are preferring the old fashioned water and dryers
ShyRage1 Wise move! You should get years and years (20-25 years) of service from your Speed Queen set! There's a reason why the laundromats love these machines.
Sadly, even the new Maytag commercial (read: COMMERCIAL) grade machines are cheap garbage, since they use a plastic clutch and a plastic outer tub.
Thanks to your video, I have decided to stick with my low tech, low efficiency washing machine!
+Dominic Fong I should have repaired my old machine instead of buying this crap. No agitator with HE = no clean clothes w/ stains!
Lucky you! You can't buy them any longer.
The worst invention ever. My $300 washing machine got the clothes clean. My $1,000 washing machine doesn’t get anything clean at all. I hate it.
Best decision because this washer is BS! They should be fukn recalled because they leave all the dirt on the clothes....its unbelievable
I have a 20 y.o. front-load washer 4KG ~ 8.8 lb. The shortest programm is around 40minutes and it does the job. (washing, 2 or 3 rinses and spinning around 800rpm) Sometimes if I use too much detergents, cloths need one more rinse so I can not believe that one rinse in this video work.. Also I can decide how much kilograms I put into it (1, 2, 3, 4) so it doses the water accordingly to the amount of clothes. I would never but this HE machine lol
Funny. The Westinghouse Front load washer from about 1940 was a high-efficiency washer that used less water . One use ALL detergent to not create mess of suds. All was a HE detergent 50 years before the term was coined.
You explained it PERFECTLY but I hate my H E washer. There's nothing like a washer with an agitator
There will never be!
Silly head there is such thing as an HE agitator
@@nazli601 They don't work!
Kenmore 700 HD washer is a total piece of CA CA. How

I was stupid forgot my account password. I would appreciate any tips you can offer me.
Thanks..this was very informative.. I have only had my new washer for 2 days and was worried about the agitator noise..now i know its normal. TY
My roommate bought one for the house to replace our old broken down washer. I don't care what any of these high tech geeks say. No way these H.E. washers clean better than a traditional washer. It saves water & energy? Yes I'll definitely give you that . Clean better? F__k no!
+Jerome Davis yes
Baller P it does clean better
Get a front loader i would suggest some cheaper LG model, i have it myslef its very efficient and cleaning performanse is impressive
They spread dirt all over your dirty laundry! That's even worse!
That was a STUPID decision! He should've gotten a Speed Queen Classic Pair!
I’m going to keep my old agitator washer as long as possible.
Those dry spots are dirty spots that never got cleaned
Fegelein The man of antics exactly total nonsense
If you got a speed queen, none of this would've happened!
buy a Samsung 7.5kg instead although it’s an he it can let u choose the water level
Wet your clothes before starting the cycle and your tub will fill! The sensor weighs your clothes..that's why it doesn't fill..which I agree was a stupid idea!
IF they think that is coming clean they are crazy. It just sits in the tub, No agitation, no roll over. Pitiful.
This is so stupid!
I want a washer with an agitator. In the 60's we had washers the were advertised as having a "jet actio" agitator.'..... NOW, we lightly toss them around, and coax the dirt out of them by being "gentle".......... I want a washer that all but rips my clothes a new one, and is dancing and bouncing across the room with my clothes in an effort to get them clean. Then when it is finished it's smoking a cigarette........... THEN and only then, will I know my clothes have been cleaned.
That is what I found. If we could only learn how to manage the water we have available to us we wouldn't have these BS "saving water", disaster machines. We've had tons of water here in Texas in the last few days........but it simply runs in to rivers....... then in to the Gulf...... hmmm, gotta think up something for that. That should be the focus...... by those smarter that me.
y7
+Jerome Davis Yeah, dufus, I'm pretty sure that's what OP was getting at.
+Mickey Cook Speed Queen is still out there, and they're pretty close to the same as the ones you remember from the old coin laundry. They weigh a bit more than a '54 Packard Patrician, and they have the best warranty in the industry. Expect to pay MSRP, but they're competitively priced with mid-range home center models.
+Gary James (Asheville) GE equals Ghastly Experience. Never again in my house!
I just got the Samsung washer today.I have to say it depends on which cycle you put it on.If you want the machine to fill with a good bit of water put it on the permanent press cycle....I did it and my clothes were fully submerged in the water and got very clean...Also washed a king size comforter in the machine and it came out very clean and very dry...Don't knock it till you try it,and make sure you test all the cycles to find out which works best for you.Good luck folks.
There is no permanent press cycle on my new Maytag.
I think it depends on the brand and how many cycles it has.One thing I learned early on, is the bedding cycle fills up the tub the most.
I got mine today & I've been looking online & reading the manual to see about foaming but I haven't found anything. Mine doesn't seem to make absolutely any foam, I use the HE detergent like it says in the manual. Does your washer do the same or is mine defective?
@@vanessahernandez9810 HE detergent doesn't foam ... HE washes use less water so low "sudsing" soap is imperative
I hope you had good luck with that! My experience with Samsung was not good!
Yeah, same here with me. It looks like it doesn't have enough water and doesn't clean well. I will probably have to wash my clothes twice to get it clean. These washers are very expensive. I am glad I bought a dual action agitator top loader.
"Let's listen to the drain sounds" - kills me
7:00 No honey who do you think you’re kidding that dry spots because that damn part of the garment didn’t get cleaned
She thinks we are too stupid to figure it out. We're not! I'm not! Absolutely not! I know what clean clothes look and feel like!
I owned this washer for 8 years and it died do to a motor problem, our washer was the dud, it worked extremely well in 8 years we had 3 issues one of them being caused from user error. It would clean clothes provided you loaded the clothes no higher then halfway, and even that was pushing it. Our model had no controller issues and in fact used more water then most other models of the bravos at the time. The washer would clean best on the bulky cycle for obvious reasons, but i was able to get a half tub water level on most cycles by tricking the washer. All in all I give my maytag bravos a solid 6.5/10 star rating and I'm glad to get a new washer.
This is one good reason why I miss having an old-school Kenmore washer that people had 50 years ago
just bought this, used once and i thought the machine was defective, i love water levels at the top cause i feel assured the clothes are CLEAN!!
I'm in appliance repair business and 70% what we fixing these days are all new style HE washers. Old school Kenmore (Whirlpool ) washers are bullet proof ,last for 20 years and more and if something happened repair parts still available and estimates are 2-3 times less then those fancy full of plastic and electronics HE washers. Old is gold!
Actually they wash VERY well. I had my doubts too, but they're quite nice!!
With these POS washers, it's better to always use the 'bulky' setting with the 'extra rinse' option. As well to add laundry boosters such as Oxi Clean or Baking Soda.
When using fabric softener, you will also need to push the fabric softener button to ensure dispensing at the appropriate time and at the proper amount of rinse water.
My daughter loved this washer.
Wow, I hope my "inefficient" washer lasts for ever, at least it gets the cloths clean!
I have a older washing machine.it dose do the same thing
Hallie Galvalisi dose it? *does!
The older washers are the best!!!
Lol 😂😂😂 inefficient is irreplaceable.
Thank you. I recently bought a 2 year-old Wirlpool h.e. washer ($220) and was concerned about the motor noise. I'm glad to know mine sounds normal now.
Cleans just fine for me.
Mine works great too. I love being able to wash five queen size sheets in one wash load.
***** First of all, front loaders use even less water. Second, I'm sure your nurse maid is still trying to clean the skid marks from your tightie whities. Do the world a favor, learn, educate yourself. Don't be an ignoramus all your life.
There is the "super wash" setting and pre-treating stains is always a good idea.
Bryan Hodges Pretreating stains???? What??? Why have a washer for if I have to pretreat? A good machine should and would get them clean without you having to do anything else than just drop 'em in, add detergent, select cycle and that is, I have never pretreated anything on my ge filter-flo and my speed queen top-loaders, can't really say that of the front loaders, even less the HE toploaders like this.
I also have a small italian/european 220 volt front loader with an heater and even by selecting boil wash (water actually boiling) delivers whites with stains etc, my toploaders always delivered spotless whites with 140F tap water at max.. the laundry coming out my toploaders is always spotless...I have seen how the laundry comes out these HE toploaders and they're not even worth being called "washing machines"..... it's not that they don't wash well/good, what they do it's not even classificable as "washing"...
Can you cut the price in half and give me a washer and dryer that doesn't have 100+ "special" features to it. Just wash and dry the damn clothes, all this extra crap is not needed. Just leads to more issues and stuff messing up.
I prefer the old time machines we didnt have these problems i help my machine with water
Buy a speed queen washer. Easy to use.
Ghost Buster
absolutely agree. I know im late
Marc Cortez not anymore
I put in on the “Blow me” setting. Doesn’t clean very well, but it sure does feel nice.
There will come a time when something on your old washer breaks that cannot be replaced and you are forced to replace it. That is what happened to my 28 year old Whirlpool washer. I was forced into the market for a replacement pair and ended up with a Maytag model 950 pair. I am very happy with the results. I will say the new set is unlikely to last 28 years because they just do not make them like they used to so I enjoy them while they are working fine.
Glad I watched this it was very informative and helpful!
I spite of many negative reviews I have to say that my 9 year old Maytag Bravos X cleans well and spins the clothes very dry. It took awhile to get used to the new sounds but I like the machine.
I never knew how top loader HE washer worked. this was very informative. thank you so much! it was quite interesting. my front loader HE washer spins at 1800rpm. it sounds like a rocket taking off
Laundry detergents of greater concentration promote wear on clothing. I often offset the water to detergent ratio to keep my clothing clean, colorful and strong in resistance to tearing or fraying for years to come. Obviously, never putting concentrated detergent directly on clothing but rather diluting evenly as possible while the tub fills with cold water. Another advantage of having your laundry displaced with a greater amount of water, is due to the water providing abrasion resistance. This allows your detergent to serve its purpose, rather than removing debris by means of friction.
I HATE my HE washer !!!!! The old ' agitator' washer was the best !!! I guess I will have to look for one at a second hand store--New is not always the best !
SQ TC5000WN, available through mom-and-pop "furniture and appliance" stores.
Right these suck and they have like 6 buttons i miss the old 2 button washers cycle and water level lol
I just bought a GE from Home Depot, no returns. Called GE to see about exchanging it for one with water fill selection and agitator.... they are sending a repairman out! I'm out 600.00 when all I want is an exchange! These washers will never clean your clothes!!!!!
My top loader wont drian had it 4 3weeks...Ugh!
Speed Queen AWN632SP116TW01, product code TC5000WN.
Not inexpensive, but they use enough water to clean the clothes, and the machines are designed for twenty-five year longevity.
I wish I had my old washer fixed instead of wasting my money on the HE washers. I literally have pains in my heart over this purchase!
I feel for you, and I am sorry that you had to go through this kind of experience of wasting your money on this new technology. I hope you can financially recover and get an old-style washer again. That's the way new technology works when manufacturers upgrade downward. No doubt there will be thousands of these HE washers ending up in landfills to pollute the earth even further as thousands of homeowners go back to old-style washers and leave thousands more of the new washers sitting unpurchased and unused in manufacturers' warehouses.
I totally agree
I'm an Appliance service technician. You cant sell me on the wash plate. I sat an agitator unit and a wash plate unit side by side after servicing. First I ran a load of blue jeans with the wash plate unit. Then ran the same load over in the agitator unit and the amount of dirt that the agitator beat out of the jeans was quite a bit. So the wash plate unit only rearranges the dirt.
John Culbertson, if you're an appliance service technician and you say those kinds of things about wash plates, that only validates what I have thought about wash plates and these new washers all along. These clothes washer manufacturers really annoy me with their new clothes washer washing ideas that only a stupid public would buy into, and then the public has to learn the hard way, and then when the public does learn the hard way, thousands of new modern washing machines will end up in landfills after those who bought all the new washers throw all the new washers out and end up buying REAL clothes washers. All the manufacturers are trying to get is sales without considering whether their new machines actually work. They ought to be ashamed of themselves.
@@MyNathanking A lot of these so called "he" washers will become collector's items just like lemon cars.
Same as a low-flow toilet, if you gotta flush more than once, you've defeated your purpose!
It really depends on the design. A friend has a .8 gallon Toto toilet that will seriously flush anything. The 1.6 in my apartment is utterly useless requiring holding the handle down until it uses a good 2.5-3 gallons. A well designed HE washer will clean very well and be efficient, but only a well designed one. Since most people are enticed to write reviews with a sweepstakes or giveaway promotion it's tough to know what you're buying until it's too late.
Lmao 😂
That's exactly what I do.

I have a HE washer...... I never feel like my clothes are clean and it takes FOREVER to wash a load. Im not impressed.
My mom used to work for Sears more than 5 years ago before they went out of business. She had went to a seminar 10 years ago, and there was a demonstration of a he top loader washer, and everyone just walked away because it wasn’t doing the right job. That’s why I will never own a HE top loader washer, especially if it is goin to use significantly less water, meaning that there would be no possible way that the clothes would get clean, because using lots of water and detergent to clean clothes effectively and thoroughly is part of what’s considered personal hygiene. I sure miss the good old Kenmore washers from the 1970s. Why? I love the old school knobs, rotoswirl agitator, belt drive, lots of water, each load takes a half an hour, plus clothes are completely clean every time. Plus it would save me time and money.

Finding ways to conserve resources and energy is not and should not necessarily be a bad thing. However, when certain ideas such as he low water appliances (which are horribly ineffective and unreliable) are forced down the public's collective throat, without regard for sound design and consideration of the right to choose, people can feel and clearly see their rights are being violated.
The clueless idiots in the regulatory ivory tower responsible for creating this debacle need to wake up and realize there are many ways an individual or community can conserve water and energy other than solely pointing the finger at washing machines. Using an adequate amount of water to EFFECTIVELY wash clothes is not and never has been considered a waste of resources because it is considered part of our personal hygiene. Something has got to give already!
+Mike Bennett Like our toilets don't flush well.

You're right about that. The low water toilets are terrible also. These enviromentalists need to learn how to find more meaningful ways of protecting the environment other than influencing the Government to create stupid and baseless regulations.

I just read that NY Times article. I also remember the testing results where he quoted from Consumer Reports. John Tierney wrote a grossly inaccurate comment. When he quoted "Not so long ago, you could count on most washers to get your clothes very clean. Not anymore. Our latest tests found huge performance differences among machines. Some left our stain-soaked swatches nearly as dirty as they were before washing. For best results, you’ll have to spend $900 or more." End of part 1
I am glad I never owned (and never will own) any of this HE washers. I understand how people feel about this top load HE washer. I have a front load LG steam washer and dryer and i had problems with it too. I have to even run the dryer twice to get my clothes dried totally. When my LG set breaks, then My next set will be the vintage old school washer and dryer set from the 70s or the 80’s. Notice that the clothes barely even got wet during and after the wash cycle, the dry spots on the clothes indicate that they might still be dirty. My mother would never own this washer. I have used one of these before and my clothes were still not clean, stunk pretty bad. Either the LG Gets replaced with a vintage set, or as a last resort, we will be getting a SPEED QUEEN.
Get the Speed Queen...we just took delivery on the TC5003wn....excellent machine.
@@BillofRights1951 absolutely
Agree with Jerome! the blue shirt didn't move very much during the wash. Clothes 'rubbing against each other' doesn't clean them. HE means Hee hee, sucker you fell for the oldest con in the book! Less water and less detergent means cleaner clothes by rubbing them together! What a scam. I think I will go with agitator version.
Get a speed queen!
These people think we're stupid! HE washers are the biggest scam in the HISTORY of humanity! Point blank period! Do yourselves a favor and get a Speed Queen Classic set. Use the heavy duty cycle for everyday loads.
I have had mine for 3 years, and I NEVER knew that I was supposed to spread clothes around the outside of the basket and not over the center of the wash plate!!
Me either!!
Does yours sound like it's about to take off when it spins??? I swear this is the loudest washer i have ever had!
@@isabelleslayavods I have Maytag and the dryer is really loud, too!
I love mine. If you follow the directions they work very well.
no they dont
i hate my HE washer..wish they still sold the top load agitator ones. my old one lasted 24yrs
I'd like to know how these are he when they take an hour or more. Might save water but not electricity
they do
Sue Doe
They do still make top load washers with agitators. I buy and sell washers and dryers and I get them in all the time. I have several right now. I actually try to stay away from the washers that don't have an agitator and I never buy or sell a front load.
what's the problem with a front load? I had one once, it was ok, but when i moved i got rid of it and got a maytag bravos which i regret. Neither clean as well as an old fashion washer imo.. but i'm all ears as to what you have to say
yeah, super thrilled to hear somebody reading from a script
ya
Tip to manufacturers of this type of washer... it is not high efficiency if the clothes are twisted up damp for twenty minutes. Double the water and install a side vessel to save the used water in. We will do whites first and darks second, in enough water to save our clothes and the water.
Old washer r the best wash clean no matter what state the clothes in he don't do that
Great washer I have the kenmore version and it rocks
We had this type of washer (Maytag Bravos) and liked it at first until we noticed our clothes weren't getting clean. So, we sold it on Craigslist (although it should've just been thrown away) and bought a Samsung front loader. I modified the front loader so it adds more water and it's worked great for us. However, once it dies, we will be getting a Speed Queen.
By the way: the "Clean Washer" cycle on the Bravos/Cabrio models throws the HE of these machines out the window. It uses a TON of water. This cycle has to be done monthly or a dirt ring will develop around the tub.
Hey it’s been 6years. How’s the front loader? Is it leaking or anything. I’m thinking about getting one.
Sorry, just seeing this now. The Samsung front loader worked quite well for several years. I ended up getting rid of it when it took longer and longer to spin out a load (maybe a balance sensor going out?). Also, I saw spider arm bits in the drain clean out basket. It was replaced by a LG front loader (SQ got pushed off for now) which has been an alright washer. I'd definitely recommend a newer LG front loader over a newer Samsung. Let me know if you want more details.
@@ikeb3146 i love my LG front load it’s a top of the line it one
You wanna know how you "load sense?" You adjust yourself the amount of water needed to cover the amount of clothes. That's how you "load sense."
Amen!
I long for the days when you could adjust your settings yourself!
This is the funniest video I have seen in a while. Watching these barely damp clothes spin around while the narrator pretends that they are being cleaned has me crying with laughter. Run this exact video as an SNL skit and it will get many laughs.
It’s called a “ washing machine”
@@kimberleyander Clearly HE machines are not "washing" machines then
The higher voltage also makes a difference when it comes to vacuum cleaner suction. Which might explain why Scandinavian homes always look so immaculate... :D
At 7:00, “you may notice some dry spots on some clothes.” Yup, that part of the clothes didn’t get cleaned or agitated to the bottom where the water is.
EXACTLY
How soo?? Just because you could have a dry spot on a certain part of the clothing, does not mean that it did not get washed. Perhaps the spinning made it like that.
Andrew Addison seeing the way this thing agitates with so little water, I can see how it’s possible for maybe a small part of the clothes to never touch the water.
@@boostedmaniac Actually the water pushes up within the clothes due to the friction. Certain parts of the clothes will stick out and go right into the water in which is normal. Just do not mixed heavy set of jogger pants with clothes that are less heavy, which is why I will do my shirts/underwear/socka all together first before doing my shorts/jeans/jogger pants next. Lastly is when I will do my cmforter or bedding sheets last, which is why they recommend sorting out your laundry first before entering them right into the washer to be washed. People tend to forget to sort out their clothes first before entering them right into the washer itself.
Andrew Addison if I’m ever forced to go HE, I’ll prob try to find a way to fit a front loader in my laundry room. My room is small and the laundry room door opens right in front of the washer which makes it’s preferable for top loader, but so far I’m not too convinced of the performance of these.
The clothes were half dry after the final spin, because there was barely any water in the washer at all!
You can't clean clothes without water, period!
I wish I would have seen this video sooner I purchased mine three weeks ago and it is a piece of junk it does not wash your clothes do not waste your money
+Sabrosita Pr You're 10000000% correct. I also wished I would have seen this video before. I purchased a GE HE and I can't tell you how much I miss my old Whirlpool and agitator. This thing is a freakin' joke. Mine has a huge drum but doesn't make use of it because the water only fills half the drum. It tears my clothes up because it doesn't have enough water. There are more stains on my clothes than ever. I purchased the GE with the "deep fill" option, but that's a joke. They call "deep fill" water option that only fills halfwayl. My clothes were cleaner with my old Whirlpool. I don't care that this is HE and saves water, what good is it if doesn't get clothes clean? I rather spend more money on water and have clean clothes than deal with stains and wrinkled up clothes. This isn't energy efficient because since you could only use small loads at a time, you will be washing clothes for a longer period of time. Each load on my GE is an hr because it takes a longer time to get clothes from the top to come in contact with the water on the bottom.
okay you're on every video.
Chantel F
And you must have watched every video :)
I call bullshit
Shenanigans!Shenanigans!Shenanigans!
How is this different than if I were to haul all of my laundry down to the river, evenly distribute a load onto a rock, splash some river water and spritz a bit of premixed soapy water onto the load then commence beating it with a stick??
I really NEED a mechanical washer, with maybe three cycles and three load settings and definitely with an agitator. These crazy sensors increase the price and decrease my patience! I'm NOT a rocket scientist and not about to start being one now. Please, I BEG YOU! Make a purely mechanical washer again! Please!
Speed Queen Makes The TC5, although it is heavy duty dials connected to a panel, that is the same panel that are in the commercial machines at the laundromat. It has no lid lock, 5 Cycles, You set half or full water level and it washes just like the 70's machines.
I bought a HE washer a few months ago and hate it. I've tried everything to get it to clean my clothes and have had to resort to presoaking certain things to get them clean. I just bought a used agitator washer and am happy as heck to have a good washer again! But I'm out a lot of money on the new "efficient" Maytag that I don't use anymore.
The best washers are the front loaders with German technology
This water savings mantra has got to stop. Water is a continually renewable resource. We are being force fed this propoganda to use less so the elites can have it all.
Just goes to show what happens when a country forgets God and pushes him out of public life.
We have sewn to the wind and we will reap the whirlwind.
pat cola sir I am not sure about the west but there are countries where there is severe water scarcity and times where we don’t take bath for a week to save water for drinking . Countries like this do exist but whichever country you are with abundant water God bless you
@@aswin5868 Yes this is true. We should all thank God for what we have and ask him for what we need.
I like the rear loaders
4:45 what water?
Perhaps the only way for these type of washer to work effectively is to install a gravity plate from Star Trek to one of the sides. During operation, clothes will gravitate toward the side with the plate and be tumbled by the rotating basket akin to how front loaders work.
I got a new house with this and this chick helped my ass out😂😂😂😂
I have been using a Maytag Bravos washer for about a month now and I am amazed at how clean the clothes are after they have been washed. I usually use the deep water wash setting with medium soil and I can definitely tell how much cleaner the clothes are now than when I was using a washer with an agitator. At first I thought I would return it, thinking, how in the world can the clothes get clean with that little amount of water. The key is the clothes get so much cleaner because the way the washer works it is like it is hand washing the clothes. My wife is from the Philippines where most people hand wash clothes and always complained how the washer would not get certain clothes clean so she would hand wash them. Since this washer uses such a small amount of water the clothes are like being hand washed by the machine since they rub together, get agitated, etc. If you use the machine the way the instructions say the clothes should be MUCH cleaner than with an agitator. I am not exaggerating when I say I can definitely tell a difference in the clean of the clothes. We also were using a top quality whirlpool washer with agitator before it quit, bearing went out. I hope to fix it and use it for back up.
The best junk washer
I have sold appliances for over 10 years and I TELL YOU these HE washers work amazingly well! The only thing I disagree with on this particular video is that when you put the clothes in, you should put them in like you are putting them in a hamper - do NOT only put the on the outside of the tub. When you do that, it is harder for the washer to fully agitate and THAT is what causes some of your clothes to have dry spots. BUT having said that, dry spots does NOT mean they did not clean well. We are all used to water = clean and that simply has been disproven. The fact is that you need enough water to dilute the detergent and disperse the cleaner throughout the clothing but you do NOT need gallons and gallons of water. With lots of water, you need to use lots of detergent. Less water, less detergent is needed. I know these aren't for everybody but despite a lot of comments here, they absolutely DO work and they are very gentle on your clothes too.
Hi Susan,
I would love to agree with your comment here, but then we would both be wrong. The truth of the matter lies with the chemical and hydrodynamic properties of water itself. Water has a finite saturation point. It can only adsorb so much soil matter / contaminate into solution or suspension before it be becomes ineffective. Laundry, when placed into a given volume of water and agitated will impart whatever soils and contaminants present into the water. The job water has to accomplish is to dilute, absorb, and flush these contaminants from the clothes BEFORE it reaches its saturation point. Once this point is reached, you are no longer cleaning. You are rearranging and spreading around soils not removing them. The smaller the volume of water used, the sooner you reach this saturation point. This is why water volume IS crucial and the more the BETTER. This is also why he washers need self cleaning cycles. There simply is not enough water volume used in the washing and rinsing cycles to flush out the residues from the machine. Bacteria, soils, bodily fluids, surfactants etc. build up in the outer drum of the washer causing it to smell bad. The he concept is an example of a complex government agenda once again overreaching and abusing it's authority. An average size American family uses more water using the lavatory in two days than a traditional washer uses in two weeks.
+Susan Headley I bought a new washer this year. I bought a Speed Queen, the Mercedes Benz of washers. My Speed Queens washes in 28 minutes start to finish, clothes NEVER have to be rewashed, ALL the soap is rinsed out, and, yes, it uses 54 gallons of water PER CYCLE. I'm happy.
+Susan Headley Sorry, I've got one and disagree. So I would say I'm speaking from experience. I think you are biased because you sell them. If I wanted to be crass I would say you've been drinking too much of the kool-aid.
+Mike Bennett Bravo; well said. It sounds like an answer by someone with some actual education about the subject (and not a salesperson who has an agenda).
+MB MC
Thank you for the compliment MB MC. Lately, it seems quite apparent to me that most of the major appliance manufacturers care more about profits and less about engineering quality products with sound designs. The regulators and environmentalists behind this he washer debacle seem to have little to no scientific knowledge. It is obvious their regulations were made without having adequate scientific research to base them on.
I have a Maytag Bravos top load, and I love it! My clothes come out very clean, stains and all! I have never pulled out any clothes that had “dry spots”.
I just got mine today. I admit I was VERY skeptical, but it seems to be doing okay.....
I'm about ready to go to an appliance repair store and find me an old fashion washer and dryer. We paid $1000.00 a piece for this crap. Feel like an idiot.
This young repair guy came out and said , you need to only use a 1/4 cup of detergent in a full load. And ma'am your not doing your laundry correctly. I looked at that little boy and said young man I have been doing laundry before your mother was born. You have 30 seconds to get your computer and your ass off my property.
After watching this, I think my several year old Maytag Centennial is, in fact, broken, and always has been. It doesn't seem to spin/agitate/whatever you want to call it like the way this top loader does. It moves a tiny bit each direction, not early as much as this does.
(it does spin to rinse, though)
That's not enough water, and she says that is normal. Normal for crap, i guess.
Joe Smith I totally disagree
i always say its not enough water, but i have a washer that adds the same amount, and my clothes are always clean
You will have clothes that'll look feel and smell like they've had diarrhea on them!
Clothes should move freely in the basket atleast if not swimming. Here they are not even moving. How are they getting cleaned. Just a crap.
@@avinashs.m3213 They're not!
Nothing beats the old tried and true front loading washer. They are naturally efficient, gentle on clothes and the basic design has been around for many decades. I love my Samsung. It has performed flawlessly for years..
Oh yeah. I have had a Samsung for almost 4 years now. Much better than my previous HE top loading machine!
Save your money people,buy a washer that has an agitator,I made the mistake of buying one of these new washers and dryer and they use twice as much water because you have to wash the clothes 3 and 4 times and that's no lie,and the cycles are much longer than the old washers,and they cost a lot more mine was 900 and some change what a joke
Even washers with an "agitator" are still HE washers. The only old school washing machines still around are Speed Queen unless you buy an older used washing machine.
Rockie mountin I'm good
The new Speed Queen is also junk. They changed the way the agitator functions. It doesn’t “churn” the clothes anymore. It’s more like an impeller now.
Get a Speed Queen Classic and be done with it. Plain and simple!
@@jeromedavis8575 that’s exactly what I went to buy unfortunately the wife wanted matching washer and dryer so here we are,it is fine for people that work in an office,but if you get good and grimy as I always manage to do im using a bit of Dawn dish washing soap and bleach to try to get my hi vis shirts clean they always look like I didn’t wash them it’s embarrassing 😳
Agitators work so much better, and it doesn't matter if they lay in the "wash plate".
I can see from the comments below I'm not the only one who thinks these new washers are all BS, save your money and buy a washer with an agitator,the type that pull the clothes under and through the water to get them clean
Great Video. Explained everything in great detail.
My family had our washer for more than 15 years. It was only until Summer of this year that it finally broke beyond repair and found out about HE washers. I don't mind the change. The agitator would always tangle my clothes when finished.
Until your motherboard dies in 5 years and you realize an impeller does not do a good job at cleaning.
Did you cover the center of the wash plate? I just used one of these washers for the first time and did not read the part that said not to cover the middle of it. It didn't fill with water like it was supposed to, but when I restarted the cycle with it loaded correctly it filled with water. Hope that helps
I hope Kenmore manufacturers see this, this is a joke! I purchased the 500 Series yesterday and it's going back! Water doesn't even fill 3-4 inches and the rest of my clothes smell more than before! Lol I'm very disappointed!
It is important to understand that each cycle has been designed to optimally clean specific load types and soil levels.
---- NEWER IS NOT BETTER --- it's just new ---
I was excited the day my Bravos arrived, thinking my clothes wouldn't be twisted into knots or buttons torn off by a poorly designed agitator (I called my Kenmore "The Ripper"). I chose the Bravos for spin speed and the expectation of clean and unmolested clothes.
Unknowingly I GAVE UP A WAY OF LIFE my appliance afforded me to have.
NOW I give up days instead of hours to do the same amount of laundry.
NOW waste water in the kitchen sink to pre-treat / soak items that once were taken care of inside the washer with the lid open while the tub filled with water.
NOW this "Soak Joke" Bravos makes water fill sounds, does nothing for 20 mins, then drains gallons of water and soap. NOW gallons of wasted water vs previously able to fill tub, open the lid, soak overnight then in the morning close the lid and the wash cycle continues, not wasting an extra drop of water. Bonus: No extra rinse was needed.
NOW the Bravos it never, never gets all the soap out, no matter how little I use.
NOW I'm forced to use the Extra Rinse all the time.
This thing twists and scours clothing ruthlessly due to lack of water.
Washed a queen size mattress pad in this pathetic machine, yet still caked in YUCK!
Maytag will not get another penny from me for the rest of my 60+ years on this planet. Newton IA manufacturing plant will have layoffs and that's bad for our fellow families must suffer because of piss poor decisions and practice. I am ashamed of US manufacturers, they just make sh*t and expect us to like it. As long as I have free will and live in the United States, I will never, never buy another Maytag nor any other "New" washing machine. They can kiss my ass*.
You should have held on to your old kenmore or have it fixed. Either that or get a speed queen
@@JoshuaAndMom The reason my Kenmore didn't make it was the Great Flood of 2008, my home was no match for 31' of river water. Everything I said is true... I did nickname my washer "The Ripper" due to its aggressive agitator and fell for Maytags' marketing, but you'll be glad to know I did replace the hated Bravos with a manual knob control Speed Queen! She absolutely RULES!
I have this machine. It seems to wash ok. What I do not like is that apparently some water is left behind and not drained. This causes a sewer odor that must be remedied by running a special "clean with afresh" cycle. You can see it on this video. This cycle can have no clothes and uses 100% hot water. The Afresh tablets cost about $5 each and this must be done about every 2-3 months. I wonder how much of the efficiency this cancels out?
Older models don't get your clothes clean because there is little to no water. Newer models use more water and actually gets your clothes clean. They are also more reliable.
That's a lie! Speed Queen Classic is better than the rest!
To think I replaced a 30 yr old GE top loader having an agitator, lint basket, recirc pump, and mechanical selector switch for an HE Maytag Bravo top loader that doesn't clean clothes. It takes water, an agitator, and lint basket to really clean clothes. It has no way to remove pine needles, wood chips, or grass clippings, so leaves them in the bottom of the wash tub. That means you need a shop vac stationed near the washer to clean it out. It captures coins under the pretend agitator and ties clothes in knots, intertwined with other clothes. It prides itself on creating the sharpest wrinkles clothes ever had. Need to select "Bulky" setting to use any water. Sets LD (long drain) code frequently, then won't drain without unplugging for 10 minutes, then trying the drain and spin cycle which takes another 10 minutes. If there is so much as one or two soap bubbles, the LD code crops up. Yep, you can disassemble the thing and keep cleaning the pump and filter but these parts should be easily accessed like the old lint basket. I'd swear that the engineers who design this stuff don't do their own laundry. Four years of aggravation from this POS. The high dollar "clean washer" pellets are a joke, too. No money saved, there. Time to find another brand with agitator. Money saved on water doesn't make up for having to service or buy a new washer this often.
+old 50Grit "to remove pine needles, wood chips, or grass clippings", there is no washing machine on earth that can flush that stuff down the drain. I know, I not only repair washing machines but also do laundry. What ends up happening is that garbage gets stuck under the agitator, eventually winding up on future laundry loads. you need to more thoroughly remove debris from your clothes or suck it up and vacuum the machine if you're going to be putting that stuff in there.
You should have held on to the old GE and just got it fixed. Thank god I never owned an HE top load washer because running the machine for 2 hours costs a lot of money on the electric bill, even on front loaders. I have an LG front loader and it does its job. And hopefully it will last me a long time, and if it breaks, I guess I will buy a speed queen or a vintage washer from the secondhand appliance retailer. I would NEVER recommend wasting money on a HE washer to anybody, especially over the fact that the clothes aren't even getting cleaned. and all this HE nonsense that EPA and Energy Star just started. You can also still find a 1975 Whirlpool washer, or a 1980s Kenmore 70 Series Heavy Duty Plus, or a vintage 1980s GE filter Flo at a used appliance shop or marketplace, thrift store, or even at a local flea market. They just don't make appliances like they used to.
Get a Speed Queen Classic.

True
My favorite part, “You May notice some dry spots. That’s due to the high spin.”
No, it’s due to the shitty washer never got it wet. Lol
Actually,
It's both of those it uses lil water so it can dry more
And spinning faster will make it like a weak dryer
They think we are stupid!
notice the clothes never moved under the water.
I know, right? It's so gross 😷
did you see that? they just moved around a bit, doing a whole lotta nothing....in-cre-e-ble~~
Come out nearly dry coz they bairly got washed
My clothes move through the time it takes for a whole washing cycle. The video only shows a short snippet time of the washing cycle. So far, my clothes come out as clean as the front loader I had before this new one.
