Washing machines are a big deal in most households, making it easy to wash everyone's clothes without the hassle of going to the laundromat or dry cleaner. A laundry appliance is used several times a week, so it's important to have one that can handle all that use and won't break down.
If you're in the market for a new washing machine, you'll run into three main types: top load agitator, front load, and top load impeller (or high efficiency), and as an added bonus, we'll also take a look at the washer dryer combo. Each one has different pros and cons, and with the right information, you'll be able to choose the ideal one for you. So let's dive in and learn more about the different types of washers available at Duerden's Appliance and Mattress so that you can find the right washer for you.
Top load washers with agitators are traditional and still common, even though they’ve been around for 60 years. When you open the lid, you'll see the long agitator in the middle, which is the main washing power. During a cycle, it swishes against the clothes to get them clean.

Front load washers are a great alternative. Instead of using an agitator to wash the clothes, front load washers depend on one article rubbing against another, so the cycle is gentler on clothes. These models don’t use much water, only filling to just below the door. Large items will wash better in a front load and spin very fast, giving you a head start on the drying process.
Cycle times are longer - up to 1.5 to 2 times longer than top loads.

Top load impeller (or high efficiency) washers are the newest category of appliances. Rather than an agitator, they use an impeller at the bottom to swoosh the clothes back and forth, and the tub itself moves as part of the wash stroke.
They are comparable to a front load, but some models - GE and Maytag included - allow you to fill them to the top with water if needed. Now, when you have large or very dirty items, you can get them cleaner than you can with a front load. Otherwise, you can use the high-efficiency cycle for most loads, which uses less water.

In addition to washing clothes, a combined washer and dryer also dries them in the same drum. This offers a great space-saving alternative and eliminates the need for two different appliances. Compared to stacked laundry centers, all-in-one combos often have a front-load design and offer more settings and possibilities.

Learn more about washing machines by taking a look at some of the most common questions we've gotten.
Which type of washing machine is best?
Even though they have somewhat longer cycle times, front load washers are typically more efficient because they are made to use less water. Even though top load washers' cycles can be shorter than those of front loaders, they nevertheless use more water overall.
Is an impeller or agitator better?
A washer with an agitator uses more motion and water than one with an impeller. It moves laundry from the outside rim of the wash basket to the center, using a minimal quantity of water to maximize friction, and is made to provide laundry greater space to move. This is what makes it possible to clean thoroughly but gently.
Do front load washers last longer than top load?
Although top-load washers often outlast front-load washers, front-load washers generally require fewer repairs over their lifetime. However, because to the numerous additional functions and optional wash cycles, repair costs are often higher.
