I just purchased this washer as a second washer and because of its multiple rinses feature. Overall, I like the washer but I wish the spinning rpms was faster than 700rpms. It would be nice if it was 900rpms or faster for more water removal. I plan to record and post videos of the wash and...

Speed Queen Switch Ryanm, The SQ switch is located in the right back corner of the tub's opening. You have to pull the tub up a little, reach back and press the switch up to activate it.

I had the Oasis (Sears version) I had the Sear's version and this washing was a complete and utter mess. It didn't clean well and my control board arrived with a defect. If you want some real opinions, go to www.epinions.com and www.sears.com. Read the reviews of real owners who have or have...

Johnb300m..... I had a friend that worked at a laundromat. At first his employer used the GE Filter Flo coin-op washers. After they kept breaking down, the owner switched to Speed Queen. He told me that Speed Queen broked down far less that the GE's did. Also, he told me that customers would...

Irishwashguy..... The top spin speed is 710rpms, and it takes about 45 mins to dry a heavy load of clothes. I set my timer on less dry and high heat, and a load of jeans if completely dry around 45 mins. The Speed Queen dryers get hot.

I Purchased Two Pairs.... I purchased two sets of Speed Queen washers/dryers. I lost the first set due to a divorce. I purchased another set (models AWS52/AES68)and I, absolutely, love them. I wouldn't replace them with anything that is being sold in today's market. The washer performs very...

Mark, Thanks for your response. I had, already, found out that information from a service tech. There's nothing wrong with the agitator that's already in my Speed Queen. I just wanted to change it. Thanks again.

Hi Everyone, I retrieved the agitator (dual-action) from the old Maytag SAV model washer I gave to a friend a while ago. I would like to put it in my Speed Queen washer because it looks so cool. The problem is the Speed Queen agitator has plastic nubs at the bottom that attaches it to a drive...

I Have One In My Storage Closet Mike, I have one that I barely use. It's stored in my storage closet. It's a great machine. Washes great and spins fantastic. Also, the spinning rpms is 1600.

Speed Queen Perhaps????? I have a Speed Queen washer/dryer and I love them. It has stainless-steel tub and a metal outer tub. Also, it has a metal transmission and a long-stroke agitation unlike the Whirlpool-made washers. I can't recommend them enough.

IMO, nothing beats an old fashioned toploader to get those clothes clean and smelling fresh. Clothes get to swim in enough water and leave all the dirt and pet hair behind.

Gansky1, Launderess, Whirlcool, and Panthera Thanks for taking the time to answer pturo's question. It's refreshing to see folks take the time to answer a question instead of posting a useless, sarcastic statement. I was curious about this machine myself.

Answer For Mrsalvo... The rinse cycle last about 2 minutes. Not very long but very effective. The TOL models have the Extra Rinse Option. I have model ASW52 which has the Extra Rinse option. I love my machine.

I Have To Agree.... Gansky1, I have to agree with you. A couple of years back, CR stated the Maytag (model SAV4655AWW) was a good buy and I went out and purchased it. That washer didn't last but 2 years. The Kenmore washer and dryer I gave my mom is still kicking strong after 5 years. I will...

Question????? Easyspindrier, How did you get your washer to operate without pressing the lidswitch? I have the ASW52 model and I have to press the lid switch up in order to get it to operate. As for my tub indexing, I just washed a full load of jeans and there was no indexing at all. Maybe...
