- Is an agitator washer better than an impeller washer?
- An agitator scrubs clothes against a central post and handles heavy soil well, but it uses more water and is rougher on delicates. Impeller machines are gentler and more water-efficient but can tangle large loads.
- Does it need a special detergent?
- No. Use a standard high-efficiency (HE) detergent, since top-loaders of this type still work best with low-suds formulas.
- How much laundry does it hold?
- Mondawe does not publish a capacity figure for this model in the listing data, so check the drum size on the machine's label before buying for a large family.
- Can it be connected to a normal household hookup?
- Yes. It is a standard top-load washer that connects to a cold-water supply and a standard drain, the same as most US top-loaders.
- Is it good for delicates?
- Not ideal. The agitator is the harshest wash action of the common top-load designs, so hand-wash or use a mesh bag for fine fabrics.
- Where is the Mondawe High Efficiency Agitator Top-Load Washer OR-ES6612-MRS cheapest?
- At Lowe's, for $452.43, as of our latest check.
