    TC5000wn Inaccurate Reveiws / Price

    Compared to the plastic guts/coat hanger suspension Maytag 575,the SQ is worth the $1039,maybe not much more. (Glad I got my '12 AWN 542 for about $800.) Possibly an exaggeration,I think my TOY '61- '64 Wolverine washers (crank or battery op) had more metal in the drive units than the new 'Tags...

    Is there anyway to stop Speed Queen INDEXING?

    While the DD's ARE good all around machines,they are not 'perfection'. We had 2 from new incl a '96 90 series KM. The norm wash speed da-da-da-da sound is ok. The KLUNK into spin is sometimes startling and neutral-drain issues do occur. Spray rinse on last spin sorta' dilutes softner. Spin NOT...

    3 YO GE Dryer Catches Fire

    Completely unimpressed by this plastic POS. 'G E'. What a shame.

    You asked for a Horizontal-Axis Top Load washer?

    Not really my bag,but "no spin"? The laundry just tinkles on the floor?

    Is there anyway to stop Speed Queen INDEXING?

    The indexing will diminish. If you're not getting good turnover in the Queen,you have too many items in there! Why wear out your clothes and the machine while getting poorer wash/rinse? "Overstuffed" IS overloaded. Load properly and enjoy.

    Time for a new washer/dryer

    ea56,the agitator cap on that $300 washer sure looks like the cap on the '63 Frigidaire we had. I thought that cap/agitator was the best looking one Frig ever made and it sprayed out water in a cool pattern w/cool 'squirt' sounds on 'Normal' speed. Off subject but what the hey.

    VMW WTW4930XW1 Trouble

    Seeing this for the first time today. Should've S-canned this self-destructed POS. A used DD/SQ seems an idea if avail. Oh well,spend more on boards/whatever since you're in this deep. Sheesh. Sorry for the rough IMO but dang...

    POD 6-14 Jet Action typo?

    Frigidaire being 'cute' with their ad. I agree the pull-down not that fast with typical washload. I DO wish I had my moms '63 Imperial now as a novelty change of pace to our SQ pair. I think the agitator and cap on that model were efficient and sharp looking. I initially liked the '64's...

    Do you prefer drop down or side open dryer door?

    young/old Not as easy to reach in back when the bones are OLD also! :)

    Do you prefer drop down or side open dryer door?

    '60 Norge At about age six I was leaning on the halfway down door our new,not even hooked up yet 1960 Norge dryer,peering intently into its newness. Matching new washer by its side. Under my 'leaning on' weight,the door suddenly folded to its full down position that I did not know it had. My...

    Maytag Commercial Washer MVWP575GW Warranty Repair

    dang it... I had told a friend about the 'Tag 575 when his 24 year old WP was needing at least a timer. Yep,''The Maytag is what I'd buy'' I said. Two days after telling him this,I see the '19 SQ 'Classic' here. I immediately called him and said "I know it's more $$,but the SQ is a KNOWN...

    Modern Speed Queen classic

    Glad to see this,though at $1029 SQ is capitalizing on demand for 'classic' system. The Maytag at approx $150-200 less is competitive esp with their warranty. It's what I WAS recommending to washer hunters. The 'Tag does look a bit 'rough' in person and knowing the plastic/invertor guts leaves...

    Speed Queen washer tub tilt

    Sunday I replaced the belt kit (belt,idler pulley & shaft,and tensioner arm & spring). The kit is somehow cheaper ($33) than the belt alone. ? Our 542 is 80 months old and the experts on this site have said about 7 years is plenty for a SQ belt. The belt looked fine overall,not much belt dust...

    Speed Queen washer tub tilt

    The sounds and smoothness of the SQ alone compared to the DD are worth it to me. We had a '96 90 series KM. Ran good over 18 years. 3 speeds good. Neutral drain not consistent esp w/cold trans. BIG clunk to spin. Spin vibes more noticeable. Dumb spray rinse on 2nd spin,not 1st. More shreading...

    Speed Queen washer tub tilt

    My 2012 542 leans straight forward about an inch. I would be upset/concerned if mine leaned like yours. They're not great,but far from POS johnb300m.

    Can you spot the faux pas?

    Can you spot the faux pas?

    The orange and green towels not color folded 3 and 3?

    Can you spot the faux pas?

    The red item in dryer with lighter things? The totally bogus outdoor backdrop with ''rain'' falling? Me not know.
