6. An appliance salesman told me, when those things first came out, to not waste money.

Expensive bullshit, is what he called it. They save a bit of water, but unless you're washing a ton of clothes your savings are negligible. Also, they do have the mold problem, AND you have to bend down to load/unload them. Top loaders are way easier to operate, don't stink and are way, way cheaper. A three hundred buck machine does everything an average person would need, and it does not smell.

Same deal with the stupid dryers--who wants a round door to open, when a flat door that opens so you can stage the clothes on it makes so much more sense.
