I found this at a thrift store today for $4.00. It works and is very quiet. I don't think the bowl is correct and it is missing the beaters, but I felt I just couldn't leave it for that price. It is a model 11. What kind of beaters did it have and where is the best place to find them? If...
Thanks
I guess I am worrying for no reason. The machine works great. I just wondered if it should work like those in the videos. Maybe the machine in the video was just made differently since it was 2009 machine.

AWN412 Tub
I bought this Speed Queen washer in February and we really do love it. It washes and rinses great. However, I watched a You Tube video of a similar washer and noticed the tub actually agitates during the wash. So I used a clothespin to override the lid switch to see if mine does...
Speed Queen
We purchased a new Speed Queen set about a month ago. It is the best washer/dryer set I have ever used. My wife loves it. She has told several people how well it works and what a good job it does. It is a very well made solid machine. Very old school, but modern too. I haven't...
Thrilled
My wife has been thrilled with our new set. She has told everyone how well it works and how fast it is. Needless to say that makes me happy too. Thanks for recommending Speed Queen.

I agree
It is only two speed, but who cares? We only use regular and gentle anyway. We have had extra rinse on our other machines, but rarely used it because we try to use a small amount of detergent anyway. If something does need to be rinsed twice, we can turn the dial to rinse again...
SPEED QUEENS
In all of my searching, I found a Coast to Coast store 40 miles away that had Speed Queens. He only had 1 pair in stock. It was the basic level washer (AWN412) and dryer(ADE3RLG). I got the pair for $900. Wow! They work like a charm and we are very happy with them. The only thing...
Still haven't bought anything
I took the GE front loader apart tightened everything I could, made sure the water pump hose was attached firmly, and put it back together. It has worked OK but it still isn't right. I have called four dealers in our area about Speed Queen. They won't even consider...
Thanks for the info.
I should have gotten the model numbers. We didn't buy them today, but had planned to go back and get them tomorrow. I'll check the letters. This helps so much.

Maytag Legacy
No luck on Speed Queen here and we HAVE to get a washer. I found a Maytag Legaxy washer/ dryer set for $400. It is a belt drive machine and very clean. Is this the line of bad Maytags or is a true made in USA Maytag? Stay away or not?
I know everyone has said Speed Queen, but I'm...
Qualin
Thanks for the info. The email I sent you didn't go through either. Our laundry is on the first floor. It is on a wooden floor. Try [email protected]. Waiting on a call back from a store to see if they can order SQ.

Speed Queen
Looking for a SQ dealer in my area. Nearest one is in Alabama. I can order on line I guess but I'm guessing shipping would be unreal. Going to check with Lowes to see if they can order them.

Sent you an email. Not really limited to a budget but I'm not sure I want another FL. I just think the best option for a TL is used not new. I've heard bad things about new TL.

Ok, after 4 years our GE Front Loader was finally deemed too costly to fix by the repairman after 6 service calls. I really want a good, dependable top loader that will last. I really like vintage but don't know if they should be daily drivers for a family of 4. The used appliance stores around...
Scents
I found a product on line that is used to scent oils, soaps, and candles. There is one that is supposed to smell like April Fresh Downy. Has anyone ever tried this stuff? I just wonder if it is the current Downy scent or the original? I am suspecting the current scent.
I also did...
Hello guys. I have a Bosch SHU53 that isn't working properly. It will not cycle off and the display window says 2H. I had a repairman out today, and he showed me to depress the scrub and delicate buttons together to reset it. When he did it, the dishwasher worked fine. I paid him his...
Foca
I have done two loads using the Foca today. One load I used 2 TBS. of detergent. No sudsing, but the clothes were very clean. The second load I used 4 tbs. I saw a few suds at first, but then they diminished. The clothes were equally clean. If anyone uses this in their HE/FL, let me...
Foca Detergent
I purchased a bag of Foca detergent. It smells great. It does say that it has phosphates in it. I hope it cleans well. How much should I use in a HE/FL machine? ( I was thinking maybe 2 TBS. Is that enough?)
