Oasis was Whirlpool’s first-generation Kenmore high-efficiency top-load platform, replacing the center-post agitator with a low-profile wash plate and a much larger basket. That basket sits on a suspension system doing considerably more work than a traditional agitator washer’s, which is why worn suspension components are one of the more common wear-related complaints as these units age into their second decade of service.
