Crosley claims it fills to the top of the tub,but still uses VMW tranny and such.

Hi J.W. that model washer at home depot is a VMW washer.

NTW4501XQ1 Appears to be a direct drive to me 
The reason I knew it was is because a vmw washers controls do not flip up like a direct drive does. You have to remove the rear panel of the control panel and then slide the top forward and the top raises up. That is how I changed the lid switch. The direct drives top does not pop up.

If you click on NTW4501xq1 model it take you to Appliance Pro parts and the model is a NTW4500vQ1 and that model is direct drive.

Seems JW posted one model, but linked to another. I fixed his link so the model he posted goes to the correct APP page.


It's really easy to post model and part number links in your topics now.

I,m like J.W  and you A.J i wish the direct drive was still there main washer but it is not.What kills me is that VMW washer is not front serviceable.
