    Speed Queen top-loader towels smell bad

    Also, that spin between wash and rinse is slow, it does not ramp up until the last spin. Plus there’s a very short spray rinse on that spin as well so clothes are still quite saturated when rinse cycle starts. They designed that for permanent press fabrics, at least that’s my understanding. The...

    Speed Queen top-loader towels smell bad

    Hi Michael, Yes! I was having about the same problems, and I own a 2015 SQ 432 as well. I think it’s the laundry detergent more than anything, I too was having the staining issue and very foul smelling towels, noticed it when the towels and wash cloths got wet after showering and hung the...

    Reckitt Benckiser and laundry detergent.

    Amen to that Laundress!!! Wish they would come out with a truly scent free version. Persil doesn’t have shelf space like Tide does, had to look for it the other day.

    Betty Crocker shrank cake mixes again

    I noticed that too that they are shrinking the size of the cake mixes, esp Betty Crocker, Usually make a cake once a week to satisfy the sweet spot through the week. Try to practice moderation!!! 😂 Barry

    The More Things Change, The More They Stay the Same

    Do you like your Apex machine? The tub looks small to me but I bet it holds a lot. Is there any fabric wear from it? I love your collection. Do you have a least favorite? Barry

    POD 10-24-23

    Thank-you!!!! I was wondering the year. Very sharp looking machines. I would imagine anyone would be happy with them. I DO remember seeing them at Sears, and thought they would have been a step up from an old loud worn out SQ my mother had at the time. My folks had some money back then and I...

    Does anyone know the model year of the Kenmore 700? Always thought it was a sharp looking machine, and probably a very popular one. Assume it was standard capacity with roto swirl agitator. Cool that it had the detergent dispenser. Barry

    Speed Queen AWN 432

    I have SQ 432SP113 model that I bought in 2015/2016 and it’s proven to be very reliable and durable, cleans anything thrown at it. It has the angled fill, which I like. For my needs, it has served pretty good, as long as it’s not overloaded. Have seen fabric damage on very heavy loads, so I...

Also wash bathroom rugs and mats when I take down the shower liners. Keeps things fresh smelling. Dry in the dryer on delicate for only a few minutes, haven’t...

    How Often You Should Wash Your Sheets

    Change sheets weekly for the most part, and sometimes in summer twice a week. Launder mattress pad cover at least once a month, have a plastic cover over the mattress and spray it down and wipe with Lysol when I launder the mattress pad. All of it washed in hot water, 125 degrees, and everything...
