top loaders
Lid-opening laundry machines
Top loaders are washing machines that open from the top rather than the front, allowing users to load and unload laundry while standing upright.
The term also applies to other devices with top-opening mechanisms, such as certain video game cartridge systems or protective sleeves for trading cards and photographs.
My grandmother still swears by her old top loader.
In the trading card hobby, top loaders are rigid plastic holders that protect valuable cards from bending and wear.
