Wow! Thanks for the thorough responses And for including links to the products as well. Very appreciated.

The cheap Amana/ Whirlpool listed above only rated better than 6% of dryers. I'm not looking to ruin clothing, due to the high heat, as I dry plenty of clothing, and not only towels. The lint screen on top/ digital version seems to be the Cabrio, and based on an above comment and some online...

I wanted a TL because I have a family. I need to be able to stop the cycle in the middle to add something in, and to allow overnight soaking etc., even though the machine is smaller than a typical FL.The SQ washing machine was cheaper than the dryer price I wrote above. I was also looking for...

Thank you for the suggestions.

I'm looking to buy a new machine, as delivery is needed, so Craigslist is not an option- and that's the only place for older models. There are way too many choices, and I did already go to an appliance store to see some, and spent a few hours online reading. I kind of need the list narrowed...

Thanks for the reply. Good to know there are cheaper machines that are good. I will consider the SQ if it really is that much better than the others. We're a large family, and I do about 20 loads a week, so it needs to last a while. Thanks again.

I purchased a SQ/ Huebsch washing machine based on this forum. I don't really see a big difference in cleaning/ stain removal from my previous machine. With regards to a dryer: I need something that doesn't take too long to dry,(as the SQ has a slower spin cycle), is white and not the most...

I read on another thread here about the noise, and it was recommended there to oil the metal. What kind of oil should be used? Thanks

The sound is a squeaky metal sound, and the machine agitates fine. It almost never happens in the spin cycle. I've watched you tube videos where the machine was loaded more than my was. Noise from the machine doesn't bother me, but this is an unusual sound that happens almost every load. I...

When washing a load, even if it's only 2/3 full, with the water manually "reset" to the top, my washing machine makes sounds like it's overburdened under its weight. I had a technician come 3 weeks ago, and he said everything inside is fine, but I'm probably overloading the machine. There are...

We just got it installed. Thanks for the tips about the vent. We renovated our kitchen now, so the tip is right on time. I'll be making my first load now.

I don't have space for another machine, so that's not an option. In the regular clothes I didn't feel it, it was in the towel load, and even more so with the cloth diapers. I'll have to space out my laundry to have enough space to hang it all. I do over 10 loads a week. Thanks again for all the...

It's on regular cycle. The drain is above the washing machine. I'm using regular amount of detergent. The same I used in the past.

I am enjoying the smooth, quick loads. I did notice that my clothing is coming out heavier and wetter than any previous washer I've owned. I tried a second spin, but it didn't help. Is there anything to do about it, or am I stuck with longer drying times? (This is why the salesman recommended...

What is your policy? Do you allow customers to cancel like that? Is there a fee? Tell her to come read here. That's how I made my decision.
