Our front loader is crap at cleaning DHs clothes. The machine does use less water and is gentler on the clothes, but TBH being gentler has made it crappier for actually washing the clothes. I usually have to put DHs through twice with extra rinse cycles, when I didn't have to with the top loader. Also another down side is if you find something else once you've started it you can't add it. I wish I had of gotten another top loader and when this one dies I will be.
Hmmm, I have found a top loader and a front loader I like so will go on Wednesday and see how I go. I really need something that washes really well because DH works with animals, we have animals here and the girls spend most days outside in the dirt and mud. The top loader I have was origanally my dads and he gave to to me about 6 years ago and he had it for about 6 years. Never had a problem until today.
Your answers have helped and confused me even more
Have noticed though that some went to FL after having TL and wish they had stuck with TL but no one has gone from FL to TL and wished they had stuck with FL.
DH worked at a mechanics for 5 months and our front loader did the job perfectly fine, also DD and her clothes are constantly covered in dirt, glitter, glue, sand, paint etc and it washes her clothes perfectly as well.
I think it comes down to what you get, as with everything there will be good ones and bad ones, good brands and not so good brands.
