So many variables too... I mostly use powdered or liquid detergents—Tide or Persil are my favorites. The commercial version I was using went up in price once COVID hit, so no more of that for now. I occasionally use bleach. I don’t use fabric softener at all. With cold rinses in almost all...

About this washer... Many people on this board trade washers like most people trade out their cell phones. I have nothing to gain or lose by posting this. I don’t sell or repair washers for a living nor do I get an incentives for anything I may post. However, I am an actual consumer of this...

@thomasortega / Niagara and New Products I am looking forward to seeing these new products! Please post updates and videos when these products become available. How exciting, a manufacturer that FINALLY gets it. Good washers do matter and in the end save energy, water, time, our environment...

I use Normal “Eco” on my Maytag mvwp575gw frequently... I know this is a SQ thread but some of this may be helpful to you or to others who have a different washer. My washer alternates between hot OR cold to fill the tub. My plumbing had the old wheel turn-style knobs for the washer faucet...

No edit for me... Sorry. You have to start AND THEN PAUSE normal cycle to add your own hot water. Hope that makes sense.

Normal cycle wash temp... This is the only cycle that adds cold water even though it is set to Hot. Normal "Hot" is barely warm. I marked where normal fill is, start a wash cycle, add desired hot water manually, unpause. Will continue to fill to line or will start wash cycle. If needed...

Saw additional pictures... Hard to see on my phone, but that looks like a main deep water full tub fill (3/4 full) If you choose any other option with Normal like presoak or extra rinse, it fills to same level as main cycle AND Water temp should be as selected. I will measure my water level...

Main and Normal Cycles I owned this washer now for two years. Main cycles fill to about 3/4 of tub for wash and rinse. This includes presoak--tub does NOT drain after prewash (ten minutes) and refill. Normal is half tub fill and spray rinse. If you set Normal to presoak, the tub fills to...

Retail Markup Where I live the TC5 can be found for $1k to $1499. Big difference that seems to be based on the retailer. SQ says they do not set prices. I do wish SQ would offer the AWN432 again. The price did increase significantly when they "upgraded" it to the TC5 with no real benefits...

BIH, Price, and Misc I am not one of those “washer nuts” that just want to have a reason to turn around and buy another washer. I prefer to buy American made too. It irks me to no end that people who passed these energy regulations cannot see what is so plain to the rest of us. Their well...

LG l would look at LG wm3900. Internal heater, should be able to adjust water level, half the price, and rinses well. I had one that lasted ten years until bearings went out. Drain pump was user fault and rotor vibrated loose and stripped. Less than $100 to replace and easy to do. The sani...

Internal heater? Do the new SQFL have internal heater? That is feature that worked really well when I had LG FL. I do miss that with TL.

@thomasortega You have done a wonderful job explaining how your products work. I definitely plan on looking into them as they look like they will meet my future needs well. Thank you,

If someone wants to send me a TR to try at no cost, I will. But I am not spending my hard earned money to see if the TR series will out clean the Maytag mvwp575gw I already have. My money is on what I already have :-).

About sleeping bags... I've seen demos of bulkier items being washed in the TR series. They don't move. The tub just move back and forth. There is almost little or no turnover. The wash action reminds me of the Scrambler carnival ride. As the direction changes quickly, everything goes to...

Of the SQ TL residential, I would ONLY buy SQ TC5000wn. The TC5000wn is a better value for your money. In addition to office wear, our family has people who enjoy working out at the gym, provide our own lawn care, work at technical trade jobs, enjoy outdoor sports, have pets, kids, etc. I...

Dumbed Down Water Temps The front load design uses so little water, why would they “dumb” down the water temperature? Unless you run the water until it is hot, it is coming in cold/cool anyway until the water in the lines is run out. I did not know this. At least with my top load, I can...

SQ TC5 I hope the TC5 continues to be available to the general public. However, if they only make this transmission models for commercial use, they may not be available for consumer purchase. I was unable to purchase a LWN model locally as I was told the SQ stores near me were only authorized...

SQ TC5000 Because of new energy regulations, it is my understanding the TC5000 won't be produced after the end of this year. If you want to get one, you may want to get one while you can toward the end of this year. SQ came out with a updated TR series models, so it looks like they are going...

Top Loaders In my opinion, the best top loaders to look at are the Speed Queen TC5000 with silver control panel (not the TR series with the black control panel) and the Maytag mvwp575gw(independent appliance retailers w/ 5 year parts and labor warranty) or mvwp576kw (Lowes with 1 year parts and...
