Dang............ The wife & I, both engineers, tune in for the science and, don't forget, the Quest. For only $49.55 + tax + a little more labor, we would all have known for sure. All kidding aside, our direct-drive Whirlpool wasn't in much better shape. I revived it to help avoid...

Left-Hand Thread One of our local experts has confirmed you should be tapping your spanner wrench in the clock-wise direction, for this particular washer.

Thanks, Everyone.......... This is exactly the kind of insight we were looking for.

Thanks, Washer........ Believe we're thinking along the same lines.

Washer 111....... Outside of this forum, we haven't run across much anecdotal evidence of sub-standard tub seals on the SQ top loaders. Please, advise. Thanks!

Thanks, Helicadrive....... It wasn't a bore to us. Nothing else really matters. Thanks, again.

Hate to put you on the spot, but....... .......we were wondering if the extra-clean clothes were the product of a stuffed tub, or one of the smaller (thump, thump, thump) loads, which aren't supposed to clean as well?

Thanks, Laundress..... So, king-size comforter? We'll continue to leave it to the professionals. No top loader buyers remorse for us. Thanks for your insight.

Sounds Great........ Just out of curiosity, do you think a king-size comforter would fit in there? We were just curious. Thanks.

Correction.... I meant low agitation speeds for the Bulky Cycle through the wash & rinse cycles. Miss read the table, again. It's easy to do.

Well Said A small but heavy lump of wet clothing resting at the six O'clock position, just before spinning. For most any front loader, we were thinking it would sound something like thump, thump, thump for awhile. Our sometimes smaller loads not a good fit for the FL's, we think.

Congratualtions......... There is probably going to be a learning curve with the new FL. Eventually, you'll probably find the right formula. We came very close to purchasing this same front loader as a daily driver, but got cold feet. We already knew how the Speed Queen top loaders...

6,796 Posts Pretty sure my dad wanted to live in a world where everyone was just like him. We're not like that. Acute observations, balanced with subtle humor are lost on some. Within reason, we try to accept people for who they are. Thanks for listening, and have a nice day.

Yes, This Top Loader Is Perfect........ Couple of decades ago, I may have mentioned something about not drying my jeans in the dryer, due to shrinkage. Since then, have been doing my own laundry - which actually turned out to be a good thing. Today, I can actually get away with washing one...
