I suppose it's a cultural thing. I never saw a real-life top-loader in my whole life. (or a leaking seal on front loader either for that matter) ...bunch of burnt-out heaters on old ones though, if water supply was cut short heater overheated.

Re: dryer, we got one with heat pump. The old ones were real energy hogs. Heat-pump equipped ones draw 1/4 of energy compared to old ones.
