We're looking for a new clothes washer, and checked out Corripio near Price Smart
We've only owned traditional top loaders with the agitator in the middle. Now we're seeing a bunch of washers without the center agitator that have diamonds and other non-smooth shapes on the wall of the drum. Some seem to be decent quality, but I find them somewhat odd. Even the high-end agitatorless models have what appears to be a flimsy lid. The lower price ones ahve really cheesy lids. The high-end ones can be fully automatic while the cheaper ones have a separate washer drum and spin drum...and seem like a lot of work
We asked the sales guy what the difference was with the agitatorless models, and he said they are "Latin America" models, that many LA's don't "trust" the center agitator with their clothes. He alluded to the fact that many don't know how to use the center-agitator models.
I'm just wondering about the functional differences? Do the "Latin America" models clean and spin clothes as well as what I think are the more traditional models?
And BTW-the nice front load stack washer/dryers are well over $US2400 for the set.aranoid: A "normal" washer/gas dryer can be had for around $US1000.
