Paul, you will love that Speed Queen! It has the older unique bowl shaped tub which is cool. SQ made so many interesting control panels throughout the years.

That toggle switch just cuts power to the agitate solenoid for a period during the wash. So yes, you're getting 4 minutes agitation plus a soak period in the middle with only the pump running.

Congrats Leon, that is a model I love and saw Dame Edna's advert years ago! It looks in great shape too.

Jon, my washer is also A28A. The dryer is model 109. Incidentally, the date stamped on my washer's timer is Dec 8, 1959 which also happens to be Louis' birthday...

Well Jon, we have matching twins I see! Very fun set!

Jon, you're going to have to come over here to play with it! A Canadian slap is due for that remark.

Looks great Brian! Isn't it a stroke of luck that you had the other top ready to put on? Hope you and your family are doing well. Eddy

The A-78 Thanks Dewey for the nice comments about this washer! It's one of my favorites too. Here is a picture of where it sits today in the line-up. I've now put a retro aluminum agitator in. I think this would have been made around 1969 or 70. Eddy

Hi everyone, I haven't posted in a long time but I thought I'd share this "almost" catch. I haven't found anything interesting in a very long time, and with work and personal stuff I really haven't been actively searching much. However, James' (114jwh) eagle eye spotted this set just after they...

Very good job Brad, I will have to check that out this summer. What a great idea!

Phil, I am so excited for you. These are fantastic machines, in fact it's the washer I grew up with at home. Our dryer was a Maytag HOH. Congrats!

Leon, what a lucky prize! That's fantastic, you must be holding the golden horseshoe.

That's so interesting to see Brad! This machine has really been worked inside and out now. Great job!

Way to go James! You really dove in head first LOL. All those same issues I've had too on my BD's. This will be a wonderful machine when you finish. Can't wait to see this in person.

Jon I appreciate all the hard work that went into this wonderful restoration! I think I was spoiled as my 57 only needed a new pump. Finally you have a SQ in your collection and now your clothes can experience being "Speed Queen clean" LOL

Wow Jon, you finally got a SQ set, yay! Those are beautiful! You shipped them all the way from here? Let me look to see what agitators I have.

I'll join in the wringer washer party too. This is my Viking which I use on a fairly regular basis.

That makes sense, because Whirlpool/Inglis Canada bought the SQ name after the McGraw Edison plant closed. I've seen a number of Inglis washers with the SQ name on them. The dishwashers however were D&M which perplexed me.

I love this machine too! Totally hands on, control all aspects of the wash. I think it appeals to those of us with a soft spot for wringer washers.

I thought I heard you running that machine from my place :-) Eddy
