OMG, what a technological nightmare. Has China increased their recycling efforts over the years? There's gonna be a lot of these in the trash within 2yrs of sale.

Wow I’m surprised to see that! It’s kinda been Speed Queen’s thing to mostly ignore the residential market and let them take what Speed Queen has. These are popular features that make SQ dryers (IMO) actually competitive with the existing mass market brands. Interesting move.

You guys are off your rockers. There’s another thread already talking about how WP can barely stand on their own right now. AND, they still make the DD transmission but the tooling is so worn out, they’re not very good quality anymore. It’s not really the government preventing the DD from...

John, you make valid points on Whirlpool’s footprint, impact on community, technology and innovation. But none of that matters in our financial infested world, in light of this press release: “A Look at Whirlpool Corporation's Growth Numbers” “Over the last three years, Whirlpool Corporation...

I’ve also noticed a lot of reviews will be negative more about the “delivery service” or the store service vs the actual appliance. And it’s not uncommon to see reviews under a cereal washer, to actually be a different part number. Or! Not a washer at all, but the dryer, or a refrigerator...

That pan came out awesome! I’ve noticed that the thunderbolt arm scrubs stuff like this a “little” better than the hydro sweep arm. But I keep the hydro sweep in more often because it’s great and gentle enough for me to put wine glasses on the bottom rack.

This isn’t a Bobload post but a fun cleanability post. Glass baking pan and lid. Baked beef braciole in marinara. KUDS25 Finish Power pac in the main wash. 7th Generation powder in the long 30min PreWash since I ran Soak & Scrub. Really not bad results for what I thought was more burned...

Cascade powder is intermittent in my area. And all stores seem to only designate one slot for it now.

I would argue the DD large tubs needed dual action. The tubs were so deep and skinny there was no way a single action agitator would turn over a load of towels or jeans.

I’m pretty sure SQ hasn’t has flex vanes in decades, maybe forever. Their vanes all look very rigid. One piece with the agitator bell.

Oh yeah did anyone need bigger Platinum packs? I’ve steered more of my money away from PG the last several years. One caveat I would still buy powder Cascade regularly except the stores around me only carry it intermittently now. It’s all about the pods apparently 👎

Woohoo!!! Congrats!

Whirlpool; “ because they try to maintain their top notch status for reliability in the laundry industry.” Hah. I think that ship has sailed in the post-Covid years. WP reliability is slipping a lately.

Agreed with William. When the bladders go out, they can lose elasticity or rupture. Which diminishes how much pressure they can create per fill. That’s how my aunts’ tank failed also. Started short cycling. https://plumbingsniper.com/how-to-test-a-bad-pressure-tank/

The brain drain in the USA is real.

You know these things have torque multiplying gearboxes right? You’re slandering a company that has a decent warranty on their motors. Often 10yrs. This is a non-issue. You hear more about bearing, suspension, shifter failure of these washers than anything about their motors.

lol Chet you’re not gonna see it unless you’re willing to pay for it. And good luck with that with tariffs coming in, making machines get more expensive. You’re going to see both price increases and MORE value engineering /cost cutting.

Phwwww you guys live in a fantasy land.

Jerome you are so full of nonsense it’s not even funny. Here’s a list of 18 washers, that are all HE top loaders, that have four stars are more in reviews. This took me 2min. to look up, while laying in bed...

Low water washers Just your inaccurate opinion. Some low water TL washers can have issues, but lots of people around me have them and their clothes are pretty clean. You’re just spouting baseless words again.
