I think the model matters, the brand is in the top ten but this particular model was declared second worst in oz by our consumer reports equivalent https://www.choice.com.au/home-and-l...d-in-the-sales

Speed Queen AWNA62

The Speed Queen AWNA62 uses a staggering 171 litres of water per cycle.

CHOICE Expert Rating: 59%
Dirt removal score: 54%
Capacity: 7kg
RRP: $3295
Not only does the Speed Queen have a relatively high ticket price of $3295, it'll also end up costing you a lot more over time, with a 10-year running cost of approximately $1959 (more than twice that of many of our recommended models).
Panasonic comes out best though all behind a paywall so I can’t see which models

ETA, helps to include the problematic model, laghing at the “relatively high ticket price”, plenty of more highly rated small top loaders under $700!

To be fair we do emphasise water usage more than other continents
