Does anyone use a Maytag Bravo? (or rec your top loader!)

AimeeL85

We are in the market for a new washer and (thanks in part to advice from this board) have decided on a top loader.  It seems like the Maytag Bravo would be a good choice.  If you wash your CDs in one, do you like it and have you had any problems getting them clean?

It's an HE and doesn't have an agitator. However, you can adjust water levels for when you wash CDs by using the bulky cycle, which seems great (have an HE washer but not use it as HE for CDs).

Any insight on this washer would be appreciated. Thanks!

I have a Whirlpool Cabrio which is also a HE toploader and I love it...haven't had any problems with the CD washing.

I am generally very happy with it, and bought it two years ago thinking that I might want to wash cloth diapers one day. I use flats and PUL covers, and have found a pretty good wash routine that is getting all the stains out: rinse and spin cycle in cold water, followed by running the Bright Whites cycle (hot water, cold rinse) with a soak at the beginning and an extra rinse. My only complaint is that the "hot" wash options are not truly hot; the machine is a "cold water" machine and thus for the first 45 seconds of any hot wash cycle, the machine fills with a mixture of hot and cold water before filling with just hot. So at the best the water is warm when the diapers are soaking. But, it hasn't affected the cleanliness of the diapers.
