So I'm going to stretch MY definition of "Value"
I would recommend Speed Queen

Made in USA. Best warranty available. Built like a tank and will pretty much last forever.
Also it's NOT High Efficiency. I don't like the government mandating companies to produce High Efficiency washers that use less water and therefore don't clean as well.

Speed Queen front loaders are high efficiency. I'm pretty sure all modern front loaders are. Their top loaders are not high efficiency.

Speed Queen for the win!!!!
Look at Consumer Reports. Also look for one that can be repaired via a front panel removal vs pulling the dryer and fixing the washer.
I have a 1/2 of a frigidair bought in the mid 2000's ( washer part) with top mounted controls. Been. Ok so far. Don't like the bleach dispenser - too touchy - but udder dan dat, it's OK.
This is interesting but scary: a combo wash dry in one machine with condensing no vent option.

They make top loaders that are stacked. Whirlpool/Kenmore maybe Frigidaire make them still with and without the old fashioned agitator. They wash loads faster and are less deep in dimensions like the old machines. I used to have one and liked it better than what I have now.
SEARS Kenmore. Just wait for a sale.
- Modern top loaders don't clean. Consumer Reports recently published an article on the subject, saying the top loaders use so little water they simply don't get the job done.
- For those who dislike front loaders, take your existing clothes & throw them into a front loader. Don't add soap. The front loader uses so much high pressure that it will "extract" the soap your old washer left behind. That's how much improved technology has become.
