Orrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr you can rinse the cup while the washer is still filling up with wator

Edit: Definitely did not think about newer washers. The one we use was made before the 00’s. Sorry folks!

A lot of the newer washers, especially the ones without the center agitator do not start filling up with water until you close the lid. When you open the lid up again, the water stops. It kind of sucks.

Mine locks the lid as soon as it starts the cycle. I heartily dislike the set, especially since I can't figure out how to turn off the stupid song-alarm on the dryer.

Did you read the manual? Can also find them online if you threw it out

This is a rental, so the manual either is with the owner or got tossed. I’ll try online again — I did once before but got distracted by prices and never followed through.

This is how I did it until I got a high efficiency washer that locks the lid before the water starts. It hasn't been a problem since switching, though.

I think mine was from the '90's or before. I hated it until it broke, then when it was so easy to repair - a few screws - I started to love it.

That’s going to get messy with a front loader (more popular than top loaders in many European countries)
