I would only buy a top loader.  

What's this about a "cupful of water"??

Off topic, I also would be careful to buy a new toilet and shower head.
Unless you like  low water showers and multiple flushes of the toilet to get
things moving, DOWN.

Kenmore Elite front loader.  The Gibson, as chronicled here, was an RFI
producer of the highest order.  It also leaked water, and I had to retorque
the drum flanges about twice a year.  I was glad to see it go.  I could hear
the VFD on my HF mobile rig when pulling into the driveway.  It was curable,
but I still greatly disliked the machine.  All details of curing the Gisbson
are in the archives, here.

ability as a washer goes, I still take issue with machines that use
seemingly only a cupful of water to wash clothes.  And it seems to gum the
laundry.  I want to see some agitation-action.  A thing of the past, I
guess.
