Use a Laundry Basket! I place a rectangular laundry basket under the door of my front load washer before opening the door, which catches any clothes that may fall out. I also do the same thing with the dryer.

Speed Queen FL Deleicate Cycle The Speed Queen FL does have a delicate cycle but as with all front load washers you need to have a minimum amount of clothes to wash in order to allow the spin to become balanced. You can also select a lower spin speed, which the Speed Queen FL does automatically...

How Wash Times are Displayed for > 1 Hour If you select sufficient wash options to exceed 99 minutes, the timer displays the time by alternating between the hours and minutes showing "1H" for the hour, then "XX" for the additional minutes. In addition you can pick sufficient options, such as...

Longer Wash Cycle Times Yes you can increase the wash cycle time in increments of five minutes by selecting different soil levels to up to 30 minutes. In addition you can add a 30 minute pre-soak and 7 minute pre-wash cycles.

Congratulations!!! You will enjoy the no fuss approach to washing and the reasonable wash times for a front loader. The dryer also works wonderfully. I have been washing with my SQFL and Dryer for just a year now and they have worked flawless. I also realized that I didn't need much detergent...

I figured out, after getting my front load washer, that I didn't need much detergent and was amazed at just how little I needed. In addition the amount of detergent and suds seem to also be related to the type of clothes and water temperature and thus I now adjust my detergent dose accordingly...

I typically wash 12-14 long sleeve oxford shirts with a couple pair of Khaki pants with no tangling in my SQFL washer. I also find that a table spoon of Tide is all that is needed.

Silver Rating Meaning "Uses More Water" So if the Silver rating means it uses more water then I think that is a good thing. The Speed Queen FL is more than frugal on water use vs. my old top load. 45 gallons vs. under 12 gallons per load. I also feel the cloths are well saturated.

Get the Speed Queen Front Load Washer, Period. I bought a Speed Queen front load washer because it is the same washer used in Laundromats and hotels but for home use meaning no coin box and more cycle selection. It comes with a 5 year warranty vs. 1 year for most other brands which includes LG...

Could be the internal shipping bracket was not removed during installation. This bracket is found behind the front panel below the door. When my SQ FL was installed the installer forgot to remove it. To gain access to it you need to remove the panel held in place with two screws. It has a nice...

SQ FL Does Add More Water When Needed My SQ FL does add more water whenever the load absorbs enough water to bring the water level below a certain level. The clothes always look saturated enough to me.

We did the same thing to my Mom! This is a very funny post for me. When I was a kid, one day, I got upset at my mom because I had run out of underwear. On that fateful day my mom decided that if she wasn't doing a good enough job, that I should start washing my own clothes. Not only that, she...

It is a good thing that they don't employ the same engineering quality principals used in the development of washing machines to the development of aircraft and automobiles.

Just a Thought. How hot does an internal water heater heat the water? For a few hundred dollars one could add a small external water heater just for laundry that is set to the desired temperature. The cost savings of buying an LG, Samsung, etc. without the water heater option plus the cost of...

Cycle Wash Time Based on Soil Level Selected stopmeister72 - The answer to your question about rinse and spin with prewash and "Third Rinse" additional rinse cycles works out to 41 minutes. Each additional rinse/drain option adds 8 minutes and the Rinse & Spin table left out the 2:30 minute...

If you don't select any rinse options in the 2015 Speed Queen front load with electronic panel you get two rinses. If you select the Second Rinse option you get a total of three rinses. If you only select the Third Rinse option you get a total of four rinses. If you select both the Second Rinse...

For the 2015 Speed Queen front load washer, selecting the Second Rinse adds one additional rinse cycle. Selecting the Third Rinse adds two additional rinse cycles. Selecting both Second and Third rinse options together will add three additional rinse cycles for a total for five rinse cycles. As...

I agree with Stricklybojack with respect to CR constantly dinging washing machines based on their load capacity. The other machines are much larger than I want or need. My largest load does not exceed 3 cubic feet. I wish CR would simply list the washer's capacity in terms of volume and dry...

There is no means to reset the water level that I am aware of. If you hit the pause button the washer drains the water then stops to allow you to add more clothes or redistribute the clothes, etc. Then when you restart the wash it refills and continues. That is all I am aware of.

For the 2015 Speed Queen Front Load Washer The water level is consistent during the wash and rinse part of the cycle. There is less water used in the normal/eco mode cycle, which is the water conservation cycle, but I only use the heavy or white cycles. The clothes are always saturated with...
