Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support :

Steve,
Were all the previous machines except the Wascomats, SQ top loaders? How many are left all together? I love the drying yard,you really don't see that too much anymore excpet in older garden apt. style complexes. Were is this apt. located, on the Island, or the city? I think these LG machines will probably perform better than the Maytag "sports" that are out there. What do you think??? They also look well built.

NEW COMMERCIAL LAUNDRY

Hi Steve thanks for the tour of the new laundry room equipment. We have a 10 year old SQ coin-op gas dryer like those and it only fires at 65,000 BTUs and some fire even less now that they have better extracting commercial washers. Try to get behind and look at the model# tag to see the BTU rating on these I would be very curious what they are installing in the NY area now. These SQ dryers can be had in models with higher BTU inputs where they are used in attended laundry installations, but for coin laundry rooms used by the general public where people can throw who knows what in a load they usally keep the BTUs down.

 

I hope that Coinmach does a better job in your area than they do in DC. I know many condo associations that have pulled out their equipment in recent years over poor repair service. I won't put in print the things I know about Coinmach.
 
LABBOY: I have no idea what's in the vending machine in term of HE or regular detergent.

ALR2903: Real-world updates. I don't reside where those machines are located but I will ask my friend to be on the lookout for down-time/ repairs/ out-of-order signs.

PETESKI50: Don't know if it takes forever, but the timer does not appear to keep moving as it gets ready to spin, so it MAY take a year and a day.........

MTN1584: Hi Mike. Previously there were two front-landing Wascomats and a slew of top-loading Speed Queens. Yah the drying yard is in the back and you are so right it is an older style garden apartment complex. The complex is in eastern Queens, so technically it is in New York City, but not far from the Long Island border. AS much as I want to hate foreign intruders in our major appliance market, I find it hard to dislike the LGs.

Methinks the USA appliance manufacturers were better off before they devoured and destroyed domestic competitors to achieve greater market-share. The vacuum apparently was filled with foreigners. And now they have to compete with novel ideas, innovation quality and energy consciousness.

Now if Europe was smart they'd get their price down(and sizes/capacities up) to reasonable levels for us and they'd flood our market in my opinion.
 
Commercial: (Marko from Croatia) Nice machine you have. I like it!

COMBO52: I will look to see what the gas input rating is for you. What you say rings true. I can always count on your words here as gospel. LOL I just don't remember things much anymore!
 
in case you did not know in certain hotels they replace there commercial washers with regular household washers like a few years back i was staying in a hotel and they had a small laundromat for the hotel residants and they had a commercial inglis dryer but the washer as a reg household toploading washer like this one the brand was admiral. and me i think that most older appartments building today where renovated to inculde washer dryer hook ups.

Laundry Solution

How much do these washing machines go for? I have been looking for a set similar to this and wanted to know what a good estimate would be? I am looking for an estimate on a complete laundry solution.
