This is the classic mid-2000s Whirlpool-built Kenmore top-load washer platform — mechanically simple, extremely common, and still widely serviced. On the digital-display versions of this same Whirlpool platform, drain and suds problems are well documented, and even the mechanical-timer version shows the identical underlying signs: a timer that won’t advance during a drain problem, or excessive foam preventing the basket from agitating normally.
