Speed Queens TC washer definitely wouldn't cut it. I could see an extra rinse for filthy loads. On my old 35 year old Maytag, if something was really filthy, I would stop it after first spin, put in a little more soap, and restart it. So two washes, and one rinse. Your last paragraph was...

I give up. He said he never used bulky/sheets, but he has tons of experience with it, and says it won't clean well. I mean, if I was really that worried about clean clothes, I would never use a public machine. Who knows what's been in there? Disgusting. You win.

dishonest? Where did I say he was being dishonest? He has never used one on bulky/sheets. He said so. And after all that he replies "/does it matter? The wash action is generally the same." Personally, I think using a machine once, on one cycle, is tons of experience. As he claimed that is...

I have empathy, but I'm baffled as to what that has to do with the subject of wash cycles, agitation, or anything else here. Or why he just revived another 2 year old thread below this one, to repeat himself again. It gets old. If I recall, we have actual blind members here, who don't behave...

I live by experience No you don't live by experience. You've never used a TC5 on bulky/sheets, or you would know that it moves the clothes more than effectively. And that they come out clean and spotless.

Reply# 142 OK, but he keeps telling everyone how to use the TC5. Which he has never used. It has a deep rinse on every cycle. You can even add it to ECO if you want. But he clearly stated the agitation is too gentle. Again, on a machine he has never used. And if you need to do a load of...

washing everything on bulky The agitation on bulky is very strong, the clothes turn over freely and often. You should actually use the machine before giving us your opinion on how to use it. I use bulky as it uses the proper amount of water, and in theory will cause less wear on the clothes...

Maytag BTW, even my old Maytag LA211 would fill over half full when set to the lowest point on it's continuously variable water level. Still too much if you just need a couple items washed. So I stuck to full loads.

worse than having load sensing How is it worse? I know what the levels are, I listed them before. Eco cycle = 12.5 gallons per fill or 14.5 gallons with deep fill. Permanent Press/Heavy Duty = 14.5 gallons per fill or 19 gallons with deepfill. Delicates/Bulky = 16 gallons per fill or 19...

The TC5 does not have load sensing. It fills to the same level every time, based on the cycle you choose. It has a pressure sensing switch. https://partsdr.com/part/203843-pressure-sensor-switch...

I've never needed a second fill rinse. How much soap are you using? There are no suds in the rinse cycle, I've checked.

BTW By the way, there are 4 levels that you can choose on the TC5. 12.5. 14,5, 16, and 19 gallons. Seems Eco with extra rinse would work fine for small loads, if I wanted to waste the time.

What do you mean by "auto fill"? That would imply it fills on the amount of clothes you put in, like some washers do. The TC5 doesn't do that. I use bulky - 16 gallons. I looked how full that is, and it's perfect for a full load. Why would I do a half load? Why would anybody? I don't want to...

I don't need an engineering degree to know that my clothes come out perfectly clean, with no soap residue. What is the imaginary problem again?

Looks like an ad to me. That's not where I look for facts, or the truth.

TC5 low first spin? According to the TC5 user's manual (revised May 2023), heavy duty and bulky both have high speed spin for both wash and rinse. Delicate and permanent press have low for both. I certainly haven't noticed the first spin being slower. Not sure why he keeps going on about it...

Not sure what model he uses, as he refers to it as a SQ Classic? And tells everyone to get a TC5 and ONLY use heavy duty. I don't miss the EM dial on the Maytag at all. Not sure how it offers more flexibility. I could set it from 2 to 12 minutes agitation. Always set it to 8, which...

Why? That machine has 3 temp settings instead of 4, less cycles, and no labor warranty. I don't see any advantage. Besides, the local dealer will not sell them. He said too many didn't understand the no warranty part. and got upset. I love the TC5 so far. Washes everything very well in 35...

Yes, gallons are "per fill". Wash and rinse. Eco cycle = 12.5 gallons per fill or 14.5 gallons with deep fill. Permanent Press/Heavy Duty = 14.5 gallons per fill or 19 gallons with deepfill. Delicates/Bulky = 16 gallons per fill or 19 gallons with deep fill. I find the bulky setting perfect...

Just stop! The U.S. Constitution? This is getting ridiculous now. Which amendment gives us the right to appliance choice? As far as Jerome losing the freedom to choose? He uses the appliances his apartment complex supplies. When did he ever have "freedom" to choose?
