No, it is the top loader, but it doesn't have an aggitator, it has a 
little thing that moves though.  It is on the same principle as the 
front loaders, little water, and does clicks, and new sounds and 
jirations, but the close coome clean.
I had a front loader and it twisted the clothes up and was a pain.
Although it is set up like the new front loaders, it isn't rough on 
clothes, and so far not too twisted up.
