I do hope these regulations do NOT go into affect as others have said here the water regulations have gone too far already. I agree to save resources, but there is a limit. We went from having machines that lasted 12 to 15 years or longer to machines that are going to the dump after a few years...

My earliest memory of interest was when I was probably around 5 or 6 when my grandmother would wash clothes in her wringer washer and I would stand on a chair to watch and listen to the 'chug chug' of her Easy Spirolator wringer washer, it just intrigued me so. My other grandmother I remember...

Looks similar to the Maytag 4.7 with agitator!

Welcome to the site. Several of my relatives have the LG top load washer, and everyone including myself think they are a great machine. It uses the right amount of water and wash time and every bit of clothing circulates in my opinion better than any other I have seen run on youtube that has...

I forgot to mention that the Speed Queen technical support also told me that the new 2018 models will have 'lid locks' as well.

when I recently spoke to a technical support guy right at Speed Queen, he told me when the 'new' models are released after this year, Speed Queen will no longer be offering any models with 'dials' they will all be electronic only. I was very surprised at this statement, not sure if it will...

I agree as well that the fun of this site is to actually see ALL the different machines and hear about their functionality and what folks think of them. I am glad there are all different machines as that is what makes it interesting, if everyone had the same design or everyone owned the same...

OK Malcolm, what can I say, mine does NOT spin fast after wash, and even my dealer told me that is the way they are made. No sense in going back and forth on this, I have it straight from Speed Queen technical support that this is the way mine was made, perhaps the model you show was not, I am...

Hi Malcolm, no the fabric switch is proper, I was told by Speed Queen themselves that all washers do a slow spin after wash no matter what cycle is chosen, as I looked into this shortly after having my machine. I have good knowledge of the features on my machine, it is just the design that...

The Top load SQ I have from 2008 does a SLOW spin after wash on every cycle including the normal cycle. The only time a fast spin happens is after the rinse cycle.

I love the 'LOOK' of the classic washer, so much more attractive and sharp looking and easy to read, rather than many of the 'new' flat control panel machines out today which in my opinion are very ugly (like Whirlpool, Kenmore and Maytag just ugly to me and have to stand over the washer to see...

When I had my issues with Speed Queen, my dealer told me that they really don't care about home laundry customers because their main focus is on commercial laundry. I never got them to help me with issues on my dryer or washer either. The parts for my washer are still covered under their...

It looks like these models only spin at about 700 RPM? I'm wondering how the extraction is on large loads since most machines now have higher spin speeds. Maytag does not seem to list the RPM on their website.

Thanks again for the additional posts. To answer the question about the 2nd repair man, no I didn't tell him anything about the first repair man's advice, I wanted to see what his independent opinion was. The last 2 posts here just about sum it up as to what they told me about seals, bearings...

My Brother just replaced his GE washer which was bought in 1986!! It had the mini basket and lasted all these years which was amazing to me, it was just last week that he replaced it with a Speed Queen top loader. I believe he never even had a repair on it until it dies a few weeks ago...

Thanks! I live in New York Hudson Valley area. As you wrote I thought the same things that my machine should just need the idler and belt, and this is why I had a 2nd guy come look at the machine. I do have 2 small videos of the machine running showing the grinding and squealing sounds it...

Neither of the repair men actually changed the belt, however one of the guys was an 'authorized' Speed Queen warranty repair guy so he knows the machine well. He told me there was nothing wrong with the belt, said the motor was not running at the speed it should to have enough strength to power...

I recently moved into a place that has a Bosch dishwasher, it is not a top model, probably the lower end, but I have to say the cleaning in this machine is great. No matter how packed full we make it, nothing comes out with any left over food spots or sediment It is quiet, but does run 2 hours...

Thanks to everyone for their replies to my post, very much appreciated. I am glad to know that the experiences have been very good with those here who have this machine, it is the first machine with agitator other than Speed Queen that seems to have a good response in reviews from folks who...

I was researching top load washers and saw the new Maytag 4.7 Top load washer model MVWB765FW which looks like it offers both deep fill or water saver options and an agitator, agitation from what I see on youtube looks good, and spin speed is 900 RPM which sounds good as well. I am wondering...
