Model numbers seem to change ..as often as I do laundry. LOL Sometimes I think it's because if a bad model gets a bad rep, they give it a new look on the outside and a new name or model number, but inside, it's the same old machine. Sort of makes it difficult to get a good reading on consumer...

mark wpduet I'm curious. Does ADI stock any SQ products? Can you walk in and actually view a SQ washer?

I had no idea ..that Syms was nationwide. I've always assumed that Cy and Marcy were just local. Well, at least they come across that way on the TV.

You're the early bird Wow, sudsman, your post is time stamped 4:06 AM. You're an early riser. Is that a requirement of the job or insomnia?

Your point well taken. We have a local clothing warehouse store down here whose slogan is, “... an educated consumer is our best customer.” That being said: There’s a person working at our place who has always purchased GM products. Even though his daughter purchased a used Ford that...

woops! I meant to say "9% to 18% available CHLORINE content," not bleach.

Cost vs. Quality My Whirlpool washer and dryer were 20 years old when I replaced them. Never required one service call on either. They were both working (albeit loudly) when they left. But I think quality, competition and marketing strategy has changed in the last 20 years. The companies can...

Can I answer the question? >>>Could it be another difference between regular home-style detergents (Sears Ultra Plus powder in my case) and commercial systems? Like, home-style detergents contain anti-redeposition agents that commercial systems don't have or need?>>> See, I’ve been here for...

Stacked Queens? Just to clarify one thing about the stacked units: They can be separated temporarily in order to get them in or out of a building, say with a low stair case going down to the basement, but both washer and dryer share the same control panel, which is mounted to the washer...

thanks loads Will start from there and see how it works. Much appreciate your taking time to read and respond... and so fast too.

Warranty & stuff It arrived in one piece in a tall box. Looks as though it could be separated if necessary to get up stairs or something, but not in my case. The distributor, who normally deals with commercial laundries, and machines in constant use, was a little hesitant to give me anything on...

Wow, Sudsman, a lot of variables to consider... Don’t know if this is enough information to go on, but see what you can come up with. For this scenario, let’s assume we’re talking about 80% cotton bath towels, Martex brand, commercial grade, used 2 to 3 times between laundering. Available...

Mysteryclock The 25 mins is just the Normal wash cycle or bath. The rinse cycles and spins are additional time, approximately 45 mins total, without the extra rinse. The Perm. Press wash cycle is about 21 mins (total about 41), and the Delicate wash cycle is about 13 mins (total about 31). This...

They've finally arrived The new dynamic duo has finally arrived. The SQ LTSA7A stacked FL machines are quite the change from the old Whirlpool egg beater I had for 20+ years. Very quiet running. Stands very solid during high spin. I've noticed that it does much better at balancing with a full...

Question for laundry managers I've noticed that the tags on my white cotton towels (Martex brand) and bed linens suggest washing in "warm water & no bleach." Of course, that's just a "suggestion." What would your wash formula be for these types of items? Also, built or non-built detergents, pH...

Creative display of color Was once driving through Province Town. Saw a clothesline with only colored items, hung in progressive order, forming an obvious rainbow. Perhaps there was a parade planned for later that day.

toploader The specs for the SQ FL state 13.9 Gal/Cycle. That's with 1 wash and 2 rinses. I imagine the optional 3rd rinse will up that number a bit. It's also a 2.84 cu. ft. tub. I don't have the specs on the LG's.

Arriving Tuesday The SQ units are scheduled for delivery Tuesday AM. Won't get a chance to audition them until after work in the PM. Will try to get some pics somewhere along the line. Don't think I'll get any sleep tonight... LOL

What's in a name? I have an outdated TomTom for the car. Works OK for what I use it for. Didn't know the difference between a paved road and a tractor trail connecting potato farms in Northern Maine LOL. But whenever I get into an airplane, one name I see is Garmin. I see other brands in...

user manuals and price I found the user manuals for the SQ OPL and the Unimac online. Their manuals are identical, copyrighted in March, 2009. They are supposed to have a normal wash bath cycle of 24 mins. The Huebsch OPL user manual (dated April, 2003) stated a 9 min wash cycle. There is a...
