get a speed queen

WalkerLoop 09-22-2020 09:13 AM

We got rid of our Samsung and bought both a Speed Queen washer and dryer. Speed Queen is rated, by far, the most reliable brand by Consumer Reports. They do thousands of hours of testing on them and don't use all the fancy electronics that always fail on the Samsung ans similar machines.

I can set the water level.
I can change the setting without all the water and soap going out.

Any recommendations?

Thanks

I would go on Craig’s list find old Maytags made around 1996-2005 they have no circuit boards simple parts last forever. Should have kept mine too they all suck

I know its Down By The River But that doesn't match the OP'S Screen Name to well! :1rotfl: It's all for a little fun.

I don't know why it's so important to me to see that these people conquer the Washing Machine Problems they have but unless you have experienced the aggravation of this unidentifiable stank it's very hard to describe and not be too dirty for the Forum. If I could have a Freebie, Forum Wise, then I could describe the smell clearly in one sentence.

It stinks living with an appliance that you don't care for. I just took a chance on a Samsung Stove. I went against Consumer Reports.

I'm glad you got the joke jbrewer70, Good Job. Chris Farley was really something else! :mademyday: :clap2:

The Speed queen top loader we bought about 5 years ago is awesome! They have since changed to a lower amount of water to comply to government standards which makes the newer ones not as good, I heard.

Yikes, it was expensive and we were planning on SP lasting a long time. If we move to the villages to be snowbirds, we will buy a cheap one. And eventually will bring our speed queen to be with us in the villages once we sell our home north.

We love our Speed Queen also.

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.
