They rely on the drum rotating back and forth to swish the clothes and water. When you see them operate on you tube they don't pull the clothes in and down toward the bottom - just twists back and forth. I can't see how they get anything clean.

From my research, Maytag has a commercial technology unit and speed queen has a "commercial" unit that has an agitator that works like the old style agitators. Seems no one has any in stock. Have to place an order for one.

Which brand/model are you looking for?
I my last house I had cheap Amana pair and in 9 years not one issue. Thinking of going with them again. Only issues is can’t wash King comforter in it
