Good to know
Agitator or Impeller: Which Top Loader Do You Own?
Older top loaders use a tall agitator in the middle that twists clothes. Newer high-efficiency models use a low impeller plate that moves clothes with water flow. They fail in different ways. An agitator may lose its dogs and stop moving. An impeller model may have coupling or motor faults.
