Has anyone else thought that it is unusual that SQ has never felt the need to produce a dual action agitator? |

Frankly, I never liked those dual action things. My first Dependable Care Maytag had the straight vane agitator and I though it worked fine. Unfortunately that machine was damaged when packed and stored by a moving company, so I replaced it with another Dependable Care which had the dual action. The tub seal needed to be replaced so I replaced that machine with a Whirlpool with a dual action. For some reason, the Whirlpool agitator develops a kind-of scum on the top. That didn't happen with the Maytag dual action. Anyway, now that I'm getting a SQ, I'm happy to have the non-dual action.

I hate the "Cruel Action Agrivators" I had a Maypool one week and it tore up 7 dress shirts I had in a mixed load of colors.I would say that the SQs agitators are good,especially the ones with the flex fins at their base.Like the older Maytags with their Power fin agitators, they too get out the air bubbles in loads of bulky clothes like sheets, blankets and beach towels.The Wpools,kmores,GEs,and WCI washers just never cut it.Even the bd wpools didn't do half as well in turnover as the SQs and Mtags did. I never had any clothes damaged in my Maytags or Frigidaires.Of course, the GMC/Frigidaires were the best in clothes turnover but they always had issues with tangling and wrinkling. Give me a front loader and I'll proudly wear my whitest whites and colorful pastels using less energy,less water and less drying time.
