Approximately 28.5 inches from bottom to top. It is very deep. I am 5''5" and I have to really reach to get the items out of the bottom of the washer. My husband is 5'10" and even though he doesn't have problems, he feels it's really deep as well. I will sometimes have to ask him to get the items from the bottom of the washer for me. To be honest, if we had known how deep it was, we probably would not have purchased this large of a capacity top load washer.
