[RE-wrenches] Front Loader Washing Machines and Modified square wave inverters

I have a client that just purchased a Fisher Paykel, F-P claim it is
inverter friendly and the washer has great specs, runs up to 1000 RPM in
the final spin. And it runs pretty fine on a SW4024. Purchased @ a local
appliance center, so if it needs repair you are not your own repair person.
Cost was $600+ and is ½ of a Staber at $1200 plus freight, which I used to
sell.
I will probably replace my Staber when it dies with one of these. I did not
run a watt hour meter on it but will at some point to get a usage and will
report back.

I would not recommend it at all. The new Stabers are hard to get to work
correctly even on the SW+ inverters. I love my Sears front loader, but I
have an Outback.
I recommend a top loader or sinewave inverter.
I have customers with relatively small systems (under 1000 watts) that are
running top loaders (with the simple mechanical dial control, no
electronics) on mod sine.
They have done fine for years.

Any current recomendations for a front loading clothes washing machine to
run on a modified square wave (aka mod sine wave) inverter? Client is
using a Magnum RD3924.
