Overview
With a 4.4 cu ft capacity, a Triple Action Agitator, 10 wash cycles, and Express and Accela Wash options, this Kenmore top load washer targets tough stains and faster cycle times.
The Triple Action Agitator combines a spray jet, a rocking wash basket, and a traditional center agitator, a step up from a single-action agitator in how thoroughly it works detergent through heavy loads. Express Wash targets small loads at 28 minutes and Accela Wash speeds up full loads by roughly half versus a standard cycle, both measured against specific baseline settings rather than every cycle.
- 4.4 cu ft capacity, 10 wash cycles
- Triple Action Agitator: spray, basket rock, agitator
- Express Wash (28 min) and Accela Wash (up to 51% faster)
- Cold Clean uses up to 90% less energy
Who it's for
Suits households replacing an aging top load washer who want agitator-style cleaning with faster cycle options rather than switching to a high-efficiency impeller or front load design. Less suited to anyone who specifically wants an impeller washer or the largest capacity available in this class.
