Spiral Hole Pattern Yes, believe that is one of them. Wonder if there's a number we're supposed to call for the warranty. Bought mine before the Speed Queen (same dealer.)

Thanks........... It's a WP. Will be approaching the original dealer, this week. Not sure how cooperative they will be, since I'm a civilian (not a certified repairman.)

Lots Of Good Information....... Thanks for the feedback, everyone.  Also, that was a very interesting read on the SS basket replacement.   We gave away our last Whirlpool D.D. to a needy relative.  As it turns out, the rusty basket has the spiral holes.  The written warranty offers the...

We are shopping around for a used 2nd washer.   Prefer one of the Whirlpool/Kenmore-type direct drives that existed before the high efficiency madness.   We know we'll be able to find one, but was wondering if any came with stainless steel baskets?   Thanks.

Thanks, everyone, for the insight.

appnut Good to know. These are intriguing machines. Would like to know more, too.

WashSmart & New Maytag As mentioned earlier, we were thinking about the WashSmart, so decided to find every on-line review we could find. Sounds like we may have been mistaken about how F&P controls the incoming cold temperature @ 20 degrees Celsius. Noticed several comments about how The...

The soil-level part should be easy: Change the soil level, while filling, and the total wash time should change on the digital readout.

Buyer's Remorse Bought our 92 Series Speed Queen a couple of years ago. It's a nice machine. We are satisfied with how well it cleans & rinses. It, also, appears to be gentler on our clothes than the old Kenmore direct drive. We are intrigued by the new clean-sheet design SQ has rolled out...
