Well goddamn ! I top load and I am proud of the fact !

I would recommend those who strongly advocate one position to at least try another position. <see Kama Sutra page 1221, for discussion of diagonal loading>

Ummm....Capt. M were talking about Washing machines unless thats your thing which is cool too. Not that theres anything wrong with that. Plus, I didn't know that Kama Sutra had anything about washing machines in it. Those Indians were way ahead of their time[:D][;)]

You know how, when you find a stain on a valuable piece of clothing you will moisten it and apply a drop of soap then gently rub the stain between your two fists. That's how a front loader works. (Less effort, less water and more care.)

Remember in the old days when you had to take your clothes down to the creek and pound on them with rocks? That's how a top loader works. (More energy, more water and more damage)

Front loaders are used more in the UK because they have their washing machines located in the kitchen.......I don't know why that is, you'll have to ask a pom.

I guess it's because most 3 bedroom houses in the UK do not have utility rooms - they are either bolted on to a 3 bedroom house by the owner by way of an extension, or they are on 4 bedroom properties and above "as part of the package".

So it comes down to what you can afford. In fact, I don't know about other countries, but not only are houses egtting smaller, so are the gardens that come with them - and yet housing prices are climbing all the time! Sheesh! Capitalism!
