    Positive experience with small independent dealer

    Independent dealers are a great resource. Did he say if he serviced Palm Springs for repairs? Hemet is pretty remote unless you're in the Temecula, Murrieta, Menifee or Palm Springs area versus B and B in Escondido or hitting something in Riverside. San Diego has a few good independent but we're...

    2018 Speed Queen...my thoughts have changed..

    It's strikingly similar to the rollout of emissions regs on gas vehicles and later diesel vehicles. The first emissions saddled vehicles were terrible but automakers eventually got it right. Diesel regs came later and they're still figuring that out with SCR and Urea, EGR, and DPF and trying to...

    Compact/ Apartment sized Fridge options under 28"Dx28"Wx70"H

    Thanks, I'll look at the 18 cu ft too but it may be little too deep. Wire shelves are a plus for a rental and the less there is to break the better. I look for simple things that do what they're supposed to do well and are easy to work on. On a fridge that's keeping food cold or frozen...

    Compact/ Apartment sized Fridge options under 28"Dx28"Wx70"H

    Thanks! That GE is GPE12FGKWWSKU is around $750.00 locally and a little roomier would be nice and 28.625 inches should be workable.

    Compact/ Apartment sized Fridge options under 28"Dx28"Wx70"H

    We're replacing a fridge in a rental property and looking for options under 26-inch depth (up to 28-inch ok but not preferred), up to 28-inch width, and up to 70-inch height. Any recommendations? Old fridge (Whirpool ET0MSRXTQ) was a 10 cu ft Whirpool that had some room to spare around it. We've...

    Vintage Maytag at the Laundromat

    Sounds like the Maytag is a step down from a Speed Queen or Dexter. That 80 pound Dexter 1200 at the laundromat was $7.00 plus and a quarter more for hot or warm water so $15 sounds like a lot for a 100 pounds. Dexter, Speed Queen, and other Alliance brands seem to do well with Continental and...

    It's the ultimate irony that Speed Queen a company that grew out of Barlow and Seelig improving existing machines in the 1900's is now controlled by investment bankers in the 2000's (BDT Capital). Any coincidence there have been so many changes since 2015 when BDT got a major stake in Alliance...

    Thanks for the heads up and link. Apologies for putting in the wrong forum.

    Vintage Maytag at the Laundromat

    Took some big bulky items to a laundry mat and they had four vintage TL Maytags. One I photographed was out of service others were in use most of the time I was there. The rest of the machines were modern Dexter the biggest the 1200. Nice laundromat with all Dexters except the vintage Maytags...

    What's worse than hiding negative reviews? Gaming the review system with testimonials. And full disclosure I have no proof SQ or Alliance is doing this but some reviews are very positive and read like testimonials. Other companies have gone down this dark road and if SQ (again no proof yet) is...

    Miele Dishwasher Extended Warranty

    Looking at the Miele G 4948 SCU and looking for thoughts on the Miele 5 Year Extended Service Contract at $299.00 vs $200 or so for square trade or keeping the $300 to pay out of pocket if repairs are required. Want to get something that will last for at least 5 years with no major out of...

    Is it ever worth it to replace a main computer control board?

    You'd think a Raspberry Pi or old laptop would be able to run a washer or dryer but getting the software and programming down plus making the wiring connections could be challenging. But imagine what you could do with 100 percent control of your washer or dryer and what you could program it to...

    Looking for agitator washer enthusiasts for buying guide

    We're in a throwaway disposable economy where consumers expect to buy a car or appliance use it for 8-10 years (some a little more some a little less) then toss it or trade it in on something new restarting the cycle. Through getting a washer past the 5-year mark without major repairs in...

    Looking for agitator washer enthusiasts for buying guide

    Liam, thanks for your interest in top load agitators. Top load agitators like my Speed Queen AWNE92SP 2017 model do a good job of moving water and detergent through clothes and getting soil out. There's also good clothes turn over and movement from the agitator. I went back to the agitator style...

    Speed queen scrubbing their reviews

    Saw the video and there's definitely a difference in cleaning. Do the 2018 Speed Queen top loaders let you do deepwater full fill loads and turn off the auto fill setting? My 2017 SQ FL doesn't go all the way to the top because of DOE regs. Anyone know the last year they did the real full fll?

    Is there a consensus? SAHM needs a washer!

    I've seen the LG's and a few others at Costco and hope yours works well. The 2017 and earlier Speed Queen top loaders are great machines but a SQ FL could be a better for a family or bulky loads. They say to size a washing machine for your daily use and I don't mind running bulky items to the...

    2018 Speed Queen model abberviations

    Anyone notice the new top load washing machine model names. They're washers AWNEXRS and dryers ADGXXRGS. At least SQ is being honest about the new machines and labeling washers RS (Really Sucks) and dryers RGS (Really Good Sike).
