I guess this explains why the 666 is so fitted.

Also, to throw in another youtube recommendation, specifically for stretching/stretches, is livingleggings. Personally, I appreciate how she approaches everything and presents it with many options to help those that arent built like her.

I will say no agitator.

My wife is insisting on a top loader due to the smaller space of our laundry room. Leaving the door open all the time on a front loader to dry it out when not in use is something she says is a must to prevent mold, and that would cramp the space even more. I've learned when she has her mind set on a detail like this it's best to let her have it how she prefers.

@sabergirl does it have an agitator? Our current top loader came with out house too...but it has no agitator. It also does a horrible job and leaves soapy residue on our clothes.

I kinda dislike front loaders just because of how little water they use for cleaning really heavy items like IH jeans or UHFs. There have been a couple of times my jeans have come out with visible dirt dried on the outside of them if I didnt aggressively pre-soak and rinse before putting them in the washer.
I think they make top loaders with a minimal agitator these days?

@Mizmazzle our home came with a front loader and was mold ridden. We replaced all of the gasketing and did a deep clean. Now we make sure to leave the door cracked + wipe down the gasket after each use. It will usually dry out within a day or two and stayed cracked. May not be ideal but it does beat having the door wide open all the time. We also have a small laundry cove.

The day is young, but this is the funniest thing i've heard so far today!

@Mizmazzle the agitator is the thing in the middle, right? If so, then yes

We have a front loader (always have, top loaders are as rare as rocking horse shit in the UK). Have zero protocol for how we leave the door; open, shut, cracked, whatever, and we have never had a problem with mould....
Miele, front loader, always, probably the last true bastion in german engineering

@northsouthdenimguy seconding this. I had my knee ripped apart in a jiu jitsu match and knees over toes helped tremendously.
He has a back ability zero book that I use also. I did the online coaching thing for a month and wasn’t worth it to me. There are plenty of videos online of how to do the exercises.

Front loader, always on a 30 or 40 degree wash, no issues with things not coming out clean.
The door is shut most of the time and no mould in there.

You can get a top loader with or without agitator. The front loaders do not have agitators.

@Mizmazzle we have an old school “Speed Queen” top loader with an agitator. It’s built like a tank and made to last. Delicate setting has been fine for my denim. I recommend them because they can be repaired. The newer stuff feels to me like they’re made with “planned obsolescence” in mind. Just my 2¢
