My 6 year old heavily used Series 8 Speed Queen has started to make a squeaking sound during agitation (not the whole time). It’s concerning. It’s very hard to source parts in Canada for Speed Queen machines. Any ideas of what this sound may be? I have a video on my iPad but I can’t figure out a...

Good morning, I have a whirlpool cabrio natural gas dryer. WDG6400SWO. I believe it’s about 15 years old. It has had very heavy use over these years. Presently it tumbles but has no heat. My husband thinks it may be the coil pack which is a pretty cheap fix. Do you think it’s worth fixing a 15...

Hello Everyone, I have a speed queen series 8. With the rising costs of EVERYTHING I’m wondering if anyone uses normal ECO mode exclusively on their machines? For the last 4 years I’ve been using every other cycle as I like the idea of a full tub wash and rinse. But…. I am considering using the...

So today my local grocery store was clearing out of the small boxes of Sunlight laundry soap. 40 washes for $1.49. That’s a bargain because the regular price is $7.99. It is not HE detergent. I have a speed queen series 8 and it calls for HE detergent. If I went ahead and used it would I be...

I’ve had the SQ series 8 for a couple years now. I’ve started using the eco cycle just to see how it work. I’ve always used the heavy duty standard setting. Do you think the spray rinse is enough for rinsing clothing clean? Between watering my garden, topping up pool and changing hot tub water...

Purchased a new dishwasher a few months ago. Tight budget right now. So this was a $400 purchase. I previously had a whirlpool dishwasher that gave us many good years of service and I picked this one because it had the same configuration of the inside racks and cutlery basket. This new...

I made a nice discovery about my speed queen series 8. I have been mostly pleased with its cleaning ability and short cycle times. Although at times I am in need of a longer wash time. Yes, I could use prewash, and I do. But I can’t use fabric softener during that cycle as it dispenses during...

Got a speed queen 2017 in Feb. Today it’s making a hum/rattle as it agitates and the tub is not rotating in a counter clockwise manner as I remember it doing. Before I call and schedule service on Monday I want to know if that seems normal. I wish I could post a video of what it’s doing but it...

Hello, Wondering if anyone out there could take a nice pic of their control panel on speed queen series 8. I need to make a copy, laminate it and post it in my laundry room for my hubby, kids and house guests who may need to use it. My washer only has pictures on the electronic panel. Thanks.

So I’ve had a speed queen series 8 since Feb 2018. Now the company would like my opinion. Does it even matter? Will they post it? The new machines are out, so why bother asking about the old model. I will give my thoughts on this machine. Overall I like it ok. When I look at what else is out...

Hey there, Wondering if anyone can help me here. I’ve read the manual, gone to website, cannot find the answer I seek. I’m wondering if normal eco agitation speed is any slower than heavy duty agitation speed? I’m still finding this machine to be rough on my clothes. If I use perm press which I...

I just noticed my new washer doesn’t even have words on the control panel!!! Weird eh!

So my 3 1/2 year old GE gtan 4250 HydroWave washer died (tub and bearings). It cost around $450. new so we decided not to repair it. I’ve long been an admirer of Speed Queen top loaders. Just got a brand new 2017 Electroic control machine last night. I understand there are some learning curves...
