NO WAY, this one is the one that really knots up clothing, and there is no FULL tub of water to keep it from beating and tying things in knots. Do anything to keep yours running. And, if you find out where a truly old fashioned one is actually sold to retail customers, help everyone by letting them know where and the price. My Maytag is a little less than one year old and yet I'd try to sell it if I could get an old style Whirlpool, one I could fill with water to the top and soak items all night if needed and the "old style" agitator ! Only one place could offer one very small Hotpoint that was pretty much "traditional", but it was too small to do something like bedding or throw rugs.
Maybe some manufacturer will realize there is such a market for traditional ones ??

The manufacturers already know we want the old style full tub and agitator and they would love to sell it to us but they can't. The Environmental Protection Agency has made this the law that we must use these "water saver" and "safety" washers. That is how and who is responsible for this disaster.
