Are you talking about a 24" wide full height machine with the control panel on the back or the 24" wide compact machine with the controls on the front? | ||

Here is a picture of a unit extremely similar to mine and the agitator I'm pretty sure it has; it may even be the same model. | ||

Well, that was a poor agitator for turnover. There is, I believe, an auger-style agitator that would help turnover. | ||

That's what I was afraid of. What is the best way for a layperson to get ahold of a cheap used agitator? I tried Googling for appliance salvages but didn't really find one. | ||

a dual action like this would fit and work......for some of the 24" models, the base had 5 smaller vanes, but this one will still work fine.....
this one is called a 'plus' version, only because the spiral vanes are slanted, and aids in pushing the clothing downward.... shop around for the best price, and free shipping if possible.... a softener dispenser is available to fit on top let us know how you make out.

You need a dual action agitator with the raised base/skirt for the narrow tub. The agitator on ebay is for the wider super capacity tub. Clothing can get caught at the bottom of the tub or under the agitator skirt. | ||

heres the base part everyone is talking about......
I have used both, they work fine for either machine.... if you have to, just compare the base to the one you already have..... CLICK HERE TO GO TO Yogitunes's LINK on eBay | ||

I actually am the one that bought the one I linked. Hopefully it works, we shall see. Washed another load tonight and again, mediocre turnover. | ||
