My sister needs to purchase a washer/dryer set for a medical office. They will be washing mostly towels and cloth gowns. Maybe 2 to 3 loads for day. Any suggestions are most welcomed! Thanks!

So we did pull (or "pul" as my earlier typo) the trigger and bought the set. Was wondering, is there anything specific we should do to get the best out of this particular set? For anyone that owns these... Favorite detergent (liquid vs powder, etc)? Favorite cycles? Thanks for any advice.

Also, noticed from another thread: "it [the LG] is very sensitive to getting sudslocked, even with a full dirty load using one tide pod sometimes, my water is not soft eather, of course im sure alot has to do with it being a proctor and gamble product." Is this a big deal with the 3770...

Many thanks for the reply. Do you by chance have the sidekick as well? Can be had with this set for an additional $200. Just not sure if people find it of any value?

the LG-WM3770HVA front load washer and matching dryer. Is this set ok? Any thoughts / comments are appreciated.

Thanks for all the well-expressed explanations and replies. My new thermal fuse tripped again today. Made it five days. Wife was doing a mid-sized load of towels. Could more weight (towels) cause the drum to "sag", maybe causing the drum/tub to touch something that is tripping the fuse...

@frigilux. Just curious, why hands down the maxima over top of line LG, or even the SQ FL....since your water heater connection makes the SQ lack of heater a nonissue? Thanks.

@frigilux. Thanks. Will definitely lean heavily toward the front loader side. Also, plan to research the maxima when time permits. @bruce. We purchased a new house last year and dryer was left in house. Can't speak to how it was maintained. I will say badly...as I removed 70 coins from...

@Combo. Posted reply #21 as you were posting. Thanks for the suggestions. Will take another look inside and see if any cracks, etc.

LOL...well, I've been slamming it into the floor for months (7 times total). Continuity comes right back. Runs fine for about two weeks, then trips again. At first though vent clogged, then thought my wife perhaps opening the dryer door to check clothes was the culprit. But now, not sure...

@dadoes -- Just so I understand, which one is the thermal fuse? I am referencing the fuse at the top of the picture (or the left silver one of the ebay link). The item at top of pic (third from bottom) is the one that keeps tripping, and dryer stops heating. I "reset it" by throwing on...

Well, now I'm not sure :( On the Kenmore Elite, it is the third one back (see pic). Also, I did buy a new one after breaking off a prong during a "reset". It is the silver one on the eBay link...

@tomturbo I love to save money, and have done all I know to do save the dryer. I have taken the dryer almost completely apart, checked and cleaned spotless. Dryer in middle of house, and had a somewhat long venting run to a soffit vent. I had an excellent handy man run a brand new venting...

Thanks for all the info and suggestions. For LG fans, which model do you normally recommend....3000 series (WM3770HWA), 4000 series (WM4370HWA), or 5000 (WM5000HWA). I'll have to do some reading/googling on the Maxima. And the SQ front loader still definitely in the running, but no heater...

Our older Kenmore Elite dryer keeps blowing the thermal fuse. I have taken apart and reset fuse (slam into floor) 10 times in the past two months. Done with it. Will try and make it to Labor Day (for sales) and then pulling the trigger on something new. Maybe something like... SQ FL...

OP here.... Yep, Ukrainian trucks delivering Russian oil used make the Northern Chinese steel used to make southern Chinese parts shipped across the sea by some company based in Bermuda. Assemble and bam...Made in USA!! Guys..I'm having trouble making a decision. So...used our home warranty...

Thanks for all the replies, but now I'm really confused! LOL. Guess I'm looking at SQ FL, SQ TL, or LG FL. So many options. Guess either one will beat this (or maybe not).

Our washer is dead. Top Load vs Front Load? Have researched quite a few.....including the SpeedQueen TL and the FL washer/dryer set. Was leaning toward the SQ FL, but we have a 15 month old, and worried that his little socks, etc. will get caught in the SpeedQueen FL drain pump. Is this...
