If u get a top load washer without the agitator like a whirlpool cabrio high efficiency the only difference is about $400. If you are talking about the traditional washer the washer fills up and the agitator cleans the clothes. With the front load and top load HE models they use way less water and friction cleans the clothes.

The major difference between a front loader and top loader washing machine is the front loader washing machines are more energy efficient. Some other differences are there is no agitator in the front loader which is easier on clothes and you can fit more laundry in the front loaders.
