Hi guys! My 2000 GE washer has broke down. Tub basket hub is destroyed.
No complaints with that washer. We beat the heck out of it, averaging at least one large load a day often 2. So I wasted no time researching what's out there now and speedqueen seem to get the most consistently positive reviews. Sticker price scared me at first, but since my family of 5 give washers a good workout I figured I'd look for heavy duty. I read that new water and energy regs have made some newer washers less effective. Plus the made in USA factor was also a factor. I just ran 2 washes and am impressed with the quiet fast spin.
I happened upon this forum while searching for reviews.
My only trivial complaint so far is the cheapie plastic knob.
I happened upon the trick for increasing water level here. I got it just below the top row of holes. Should I crank it beyond that?
I would like to bypass the lid switch, but not sure I want to start removing panels yet. Any other simple tricks or suggestions appreciated welcome.
