    GE filter-flo washer serving food.

    Wha... ''Interesting''? Bizarre maybe. Sorry to be COLD-wash,but IMO the food/Filter-Flo is not appetizing. Now if you want to hear MY dreams...:)

    New owner of a 2015 Speed Queen TL washer!

    My 3 yr old AWN542 had a cabinet buzz occasionally when newer. Lately it makes a slight ''meow'' sound when washing ceases/pause for spin. Way less drama/racket than our DD Kenmore,more ''old school'' sounds.

    Speed Queen wrinkled chothes?!!!

    Uh,maybe that timer aint QUITE done... My 3 year old (almost) AWN 542 timer DOES make a final,quiet click-click about 10 seconds after tub stops on the final spin. Doesn't seem to do/change anything,but if you haven't modified the lid lock and lift lid immediately after final spin tub...

    Videos of my Kenmore 28102!

    I may be out of line,but there doesn't seem to be much ''wash'' (clothes) being washed in the vids. I wash approx 17-20 pieces in our tl SQ. 7 T's,6 shorts,2 pr jeans,2 pr khaki's is a typical load with good turnover. I seldom see that much in tl HE's. If there IS a big he load, the 'bloom'...

    Teeny Tiny Toy Washer Set

    where oh where... Around 1960-63 I swear I saw a toy automatic washer at Christmas time in a grocery store. Next to big toy tanks,trucks,other flashy toys. The washer was about twice as big as the crank or battery powered Wolverine washers(I had about 4 of those over the years). This bigger...

    Got my new Speed Queen AWN542 but have some questions/issues...

    esty,my 2 1/2 year old SQ AWN 542 used to rattle the side side cabinet at times. Pretty big noise and irritating. I'd stuff a Q-Tip between the top and cabinet,which seemed to help. Noticed about a year ago the Q-Tip had fallen out,but the rattle hasn't returned. My wife (who is usually very...

    1967 Lady Kenmore Portable Rotorack that needs help!

    I talked my dad into buying this exact machine in Avacado. Loved the look,sounds,lights and Roto-rack!!! I was 13 and did ALL the housework as my mom was a sweet but housework-averse lady. Lucky me also had new '67 LK washer and tol KM canister vacuum w/Powermate. Garage held '67 white Pontiac...

    New SQ vs. Maytag DC vs. Whirlpool DD

    sounds like... I look at BD KM/WP vids lovingly for their symphonic sounds. Then comes the spin cycle. So much rattling/squeaking on many.(Our '67 Lady was pretty solid). POINT being,our 2.5 year old SQ 542 operates quickly,quietly,and with more than a bit of BD washing sound combined with...

    FREE Kenmore DD series 90 washer Baltimore CL

    They ARE great! Tons of features/options and runs forever. I want check the mechanicals on our 1996 90 series and probably put it back into service. Our 18 months old SQ TL is fine,but we could sure control water temp and speeds more closely with that KM.

    Speed Queen dryer arrived

    I somewhat like the swish on our tol SQs. I don't like/trust the excessively clicky timers on both. Feels cheap to me and I've experienced many washers/dryers. As far as styling/design 'conservatism',I think SQ is just saving money not redesigning the Amana panel/basically whole machine. Not...

    Speed Queen TL washer walks out when unbalanced

    My SQ can't spin just 1 pillow. It bangs TOO much and appears to have put a slight crease in the front cabinet panel! I was there to watch its spin attempt or otherwise I'm sure she would've gone for a precarious walk! Our '96 DD protested 1 pillow,but would spin-up,especially if I squeezed the...

    Help needed 1999 (not quite vintage) Amana washer question

    Adjusting the water level ourselves is great,but isn't it a sin that the new machines ruin themselves AND our clothes set the way the factory/government mandates. Is bad enough for our laundry equipment to come under such ''penny-wise,pound-foolish'' thinking,but it seems nearly everything the...

    Speed Queen dryer arrived

    SQ not perfect,but close Interesting how your dryer has gray plastic and my 2012 SQ has white. The gray looks more ''business-like'',but I like the white just fine. I don't like the noisey/clicky timer or the fact you have spin it all the way around to add time once you've 'set' the time. The...

    Assuming the AWN 542 goes away at end of 2014

    To rapunzel Amazing how most old hospitals had smooth 'granite' looking walls/floors that could/would be washed and sanitized. What do we have now? Carpeting in some areas and clothlike material EVERYWHERE on walls. I'm sure THAT gets 'sanitized' often! We seem to be great at coming up with...

    SQ FL or TL

    I like the 30 minute normal wash cycle of our AWN 542,the spin drain,water fills tub quickly,and my favorite;normal wash speed makes great 'slosh' sounds along with a slight 'woo-woo',depending on proximities to the machine. :)
