inner workings and colorful loads

I'd like to see a full load of colors with a premium HE laundry detergent and fabric softener. I'd also would like to see the inner workings of this machine running. What is the model number of this machine?
 
Speed Queen is so clever. They achieve agitation by rotating the tub back in forth rapid enough such that the clothes are stationary with respect to the agitation so you get the same agitation effect of a stationary tub/moving agitator. It's turnover is slower. But it seems to be a great idea. Should be extremely reliable too.

Way to go. I may have to get one.
 
Give Speed Queen a chance!

I think we should give Speed Queen a chance. I know, I hate what the EPA/DOE has done, but at least Speed Queen had the the customers' wants and needs in mind. This might just as good, if not better than the old method of washing clothes despite the gentle splaching noise. If you think about it, the wash action is turbulent underwater. I'm not happy about what the EPA/DOE has done as moch as I want to rant, however.
 
It's like the Frigidaire Immersion care with an agitator, LOL. It will probably clean just fine, really.

I just don't understand why with that much water, they couldn't stick with a normal agitation? I was expecting it to use like a lot less water for all the redesign they did.
 
This could lead to Speed Queen's demise, and I'll laugh when people stop buying Speed Queen washers and dryers.
 
I was thinking...I wonder if the current FlexVane agitator would fit in this washer and how much more water and load movement would be created....it’s funny how something that was tried back in the 70’s by Frigidaire GM comes back in this incarnation. I am looking forward to see what CU has to say about this washer design.
 
new 2018 speed queen

Speed Queen must've really done their homework despite all the feedback from the environmentalists. They've decided to make their machines more tough, but more gentle and more energy efficient. Less parts to go wrong. I'd bet everything I own that these electronics that they use are built to tough military specs. Who can say that about their washers? Nobody can! I'd use Tide pods original laundry detergent, Downy April fresh liquid fabric softener, and Clorox bleach packs when washing whites. I'd use the heavy-duty cycle with the heaviest soil level at all times and leave the machine at auto fill. The only thing that changes is the temperature. I hope people will give these machines a chance. I know Maytag85 feels. As much as I hate the change, I'm willing to wait and give it a chance. Give Speed Queen a chance! They've been doing laundry for over a century - come a century and a decade!

I would definitely do a variac overload on the 2018 Speed Queen washer!! I would make EOL videos and put them on YouTube like Shango066 does!!!
 
Too early to pass judgement

So I only did 3 loads so far, one empty, one with a few items, and this full load. I was impressed how well it was able to circulate the clothing. I’ll video a few more loads tomorrow, maybe a side by side comparison and an internal view.

Those towels were already washed before I put them in and the new queen managed to squeeze more dirt out of them. That was very impressive to me.

It’s going to be a busy week but I’ll try and post more thorough videos and ultimately my review.

So far though I like it, and I think it will do well.
