Thank you very much for posting those pictures.

Wasn't there a Canadian Speed Queen model which had a pressure switch instead of a timed fill? Watching the videos here, timed fill kind of rubs me the wrong way, especially on the wash cycle. (All that soap going down the drain.) Although, I can see the need for the overflow rinse with this...

The digital LCD readout models remind me of the same LCD readouts one would see on older photocopiers, with the distinctive blue and white displays.

Could you please get some good close up shots of the control panel for both the washer and dryer please? Thank you!

1960 is my favorite model year of Frigidaire washer/dryers. I admit I even like it more than the 1957 models, as cool as those are! The tread I attached shows the beautiful symmetry between the washer and the dryer, I couldn't see not having one without the other...

Nothing washes clothing faster than a conventional top loading machine. My 2004-era GE washer could do a load in about 25 minutes. Even my Huebsch FL (Aka Speed Queen) takes about 40 minutes for a load. What front loaders make up for capacity and cost savings, top loaders make up for it in...

You know.. this got me thinking.. Is it just the design of the washplate combined with the lack of water that provides for the relatively slow turnover shown in these videos? (The bright whites cycle looks like it is turning over really well though.) Honestly, I'm not really impressed with the...

Without beating this thread to death... My 2004-vintage GE toploader consumed 180 litres of water per cycle. 90 litres every single time the tub filled. If a second rinse was selected, it would consume 270 litres of water. Comparing that to my Huebsch, it normally consumes about 83 Litres of...

I'm coming into this a little late in the game... You don't know what the "Tech" did to the machine. Thereby, you can't trust it. The solution is to back up any important data on the machine, wipe the machine using Darik's boot and nuke and then completely reinstall the operating system from...

Hello everyone. Currently, we use a Roper Range, which is basically a rebranded Whirlpool contractors special. I'm considering replacing this range even though there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. The reason being is that it lacks a self-cleaning oven and the kitchen gets quite hot when...

Another note, even though these are based upon international models, none of these washers have a built in heater. I have to admit that now I find it mildly annoying that on the Speed Queen site, you can still buy a rear console front loader, but the Huebsch brand doesn't have them...

Wow. Looking at the site, it looks like they've severely reduced the amount of selection and models down to just a few. BOL or TOL with not much in between. They're down to 16 different products, about as much selection, but some things to note: - You can't buy rear console front loaders...

Hmm.. I can see this system having a short lifespan due to GE getting tired of having to replace burnt clutches from lots of customers using gentle cycles on a frequent basis.

Imperial70: The new line up of machines has a dryer which can sense moisture, unlike the existing dryer which can only sense temperature. I would have considered a Whirlpool dryer myself, as I admit that I do like the top lint screen idea a lot, but I wanted a proper matched set.

The Canadian line of Huebsch washers is at the link I posted below... Unfortunately, the new line up isn't there yet. The Huebsch site you linked to is the American Huebsch site. In the USA, Huebsch is Alliance's commercial brand while Speed Queen is their consumer brand. Same machine...

This POD is an interesting ad involving a GE Versatronic Filter-Flo. This is my dream GE Filter-Flo, although the Dispense All would come in second. So, I know that GE did a bit of "Solid State" trickery to get these machines to run at different infinite speeds. How exactly did the...

I found a new RCA washing machine for sale here. I haven't seen RCA branded machines for a very long time. It's a portable fully auto machine with a tub capacity of about 1.0 cu.ft. I have no idea who actually makes it, but my guess is that it is probably some Chinese manufacturer. Anyway, two...

Back in 2004, I bought a TOL GE washer/dryer set.. After about 7 years of use, the washer started making this noise, but only occasionally. I could have lubricated the tub suspension, but between that and using 180 Litres of water per load and ripping my sheets, I decided it was better to be...

That's because he posted the body of his message into the "URL Link to Share" area. Of course, it was cut short, but here was what he posted: "I'm new here but I'm very interested in washers and dryers. I have all sturdy cotton clothes of all color types: dark colors, light colors, and all...

I bought my Huebsch ZFN50R (Which is the same as this machine, just branded differently with French labelling) because of these reasons and more. (BTW, My Huebsch actually has a warm rinse option.) Considering that this company puts three times the warranty of other washers on the market means...
