My mothers Kenmore that she bought in the 1960's worked until 2000! They could not repair it so they replaced it.....that replacement was still running perfectly 20 years later when I left it up North when I moved in June....wish I would have brought it with me!!!

I have the same SpeedQueen, and I'm also quite pleased with it. I really like the adjustable water level.

My daughter just bought a GE top loading washer and gas dryer combo with an agitator and a soak cycle. Loves it. Make sure the spin rpms is sufficient to dewater the type of clothes you wash. Jeans and denim require a rate over 900 to do a good job. Top loading washers may allow a soak cycle. Front loading washers often have a higher rpm spin cycle. I soak and pretreat in a bucket. Darn singing Samsung.

OMG I want one. Darn there goes all the $$$ for a less than year old Maytag. One last question, can YOU set the amount of water YOU want in the tub ? Like if you want to just fill it, like a bathtub, LOL, and soak things in the water, can you do that ? Lowes and HD did not have one when I was looking.

Considering they have been around since before AOC was born Dont think the green new deal was part of it. more like capitalists after more profit.

I purchased an LG washer a year ago. It had a good agitator. I can set my own water levels or use the auto Water setting. It does everything the old washers used to do. I really like it.

Had front load Samsung in NC, washer lasted 4 years before inner tub collided with outer tub and starting smoking. Repairman said, most complicated fix of the washer, would need to remove from laundry room and put in front yard to repair and would cost $1000. Bag that...Bought a Speed Queen -- 5 year warranty!

Samsung dryer died around a year later -- bought a Speed Queen -- 7 year warranty!

If I had SQ from the start, both would have been repaired under warranty.

Love our SQs, so we brought them down here. When we built we said, we don't want those Samsungs...they stink! We don't care that we paid to have them moved. Well worth it.

I am getting an appliance warranty after 1 year mark. Only Samsung products worth a darn are their TVs.
