    New Acquisition: Frigidaire 1-18 WC-6B in Harvest Gold!

    Oh,Yeah!? I say yer YELLA!! And a very nice yellow if I do say so. Great score on a great looking Frigid. Rewarded nicely for good attentive skills and reflexes!(You saw it and snagged it!) Enjoy and maybe a vid for us less fortunate? :)

    Modern Speed Queen Quality

    37 is a quick time on hot. I see if the 2nd rinse is removed from the above video then the total run time is closer to 35-40 minutes so I'll stand corrected. Still like the AWN/TC SOUNDS better! :)

    Modern Speed Queen Quality

    No Cigar.. TR's an interesting SQ IF you have TWICE the time to maybe get a similar size load nearly as clean as an AWN or TC. I like the 30 minute SPEED Queens.

    Favorite Agitator?

    I think my '12 SQ agi looks like a 4-vane mini-Surgilator. Got 'em squigles and splashy sounds! I love the action and appearance of the classic Surgilators,but was mystified with our new '67 LK Roto-Flex. Each load an adventure!

    Estate Sale Find! A 1974 Lady Kenmore Washer/Dryer Set!

    Coppertone would not ring my bell. Um,except in this case,OMG,those machines are beautiful! The wood garage doors look good with the coppertone. Hope they operate well and you enjoy the "brown" out of them!! Wash on.

    Replacement for 20 year old Whirlpool

    70skid,my 7 year old SQ belt looked fine,very little dust. I replaced it and the ''kit'' too anyway and did get quicker spin accel. Since you come off a bit harsh on the older SQs,let me say I like a 30 minute wash is DONE!! machine. I got no time for the swisher that you endorse. To each their...

    Should I swap out my Speed Queen set for this KitchenAid set?

    Totally understand. I had a '90 KM 90 series 16 years no trouble. Now '12 AWN542. Prefer the SQ's wash stroke and SOUNDS(slosh and woo-woo),after wash spin-spray rinse,SMOOTH-vibration free spin with no nasty DD spin-engage KLUNK! I kinda' think the fluted KM tub removed water better than...

    POD 8/11/2020

    Really? That seems crazy. I'm familiar with KMs BD & DD, & '63 Frigidaire. No GE machines. I don't think I missed much. Wash on.

    My new 1963 Whirlpool Imperial Mark XII set

    Coool Machine... The '63 WP was in one of my favorite movies,"The Thrill Of It All". Saw it with my parents at the Drive In when I was 9.

    There's a livestream of a Speed Queen Top Loader full of garden tools .

    just stop.. Jeez,SQ. Drop this UN-washer and do whatever it takes to build only transmission style machines in base/mol/tol. If you want adventure,offer some COLORS. But don't show us any more non-laundry items being ''washed''.

    Speed Queen: “The Legend Of The TR” Live Streaming

    Oh boy! 21 WHOLE POUNDS! How about 12 wet bath towels? What do those weigh,Speed Queen? Have your PR and Tech depts interview some one who actually has a job that gets their clothes dirty and then wash THEIR laundry.(Not their billiard set.) See what you can learn. If it's legal to build the...

    Speed queen topload

    Our 2012 started doing this I call 'clicking' at about the 7 year mark. Seems worse some days. I don't like it but I don't hate it. I put the belt kit on in 2019. Helped spin pick-up. I'll live with the clicking unless an easy fix appears. Seems there's a little slop in brake system or???

    Thank to you all - new Speed Queens up and running

    And the SQ TC5 makes the best classic sounds of any modern washer along with a very smooth (if non-supersonic) spin. Enjoy!

    Picked up a new, never used KDS-20!!

    Very nice dw! Our new house (3yrs ago) came with GE dw. Quiet,uses little water, and does NOT clean dishes. Previous 13 yr old rented townhouse had GE dw that used and sloshed water and gave clean dishes. Please enjoy your awesome machine and know you have the envy of many here!
