We have had Speed Queen in the laundry room for a couple of years.
At the time we bought, there was a choice of electronic dials or plain knobs. But that was the only choice to make. I picked the electronic.
Other than that, it is a basic, well-built machine. Nothing fancy. Top Load. Agitator. Nice stainless tub.
The only thing that I find not to like so much is that I wish the spin cycle would spin the clothes a little longer. But if I want more spin, I can hit a spin-only cycle for 7 minutes more -- or shorter by pausing the cycle before 7. (The laundry room is close to the living area of the house so pushing that button is no big deal. And besides, it might just be me because, in a different house, I had an Electrolux front loader than spun things really dry.)
It is also a bit of a thrill to have a washer that I actually can fill with water, if I want to, gallons even......Does that make me a bad person?
Speed Queen is headquartered in Wisconsin. I am pretty sure they make machines for laundromats, too.
I like Speed Queen. It is nice to have a simple machine that I am hoping does not have the built in obsolescence that so many appliances now have.
