Most Maddening Washer Commerical

[panasonicvac]

Those are commercial models. Likely from clueless people who doesn't know how to do laundry properly. That can happen to any washer really, even seen a DD video that failed from abuse. I'm convinced that as long as you take care of them, they'd last longer than you'd think like mine or John's.

Doesn't really matter which setting I'd use on my Kenmore. That fact of the matter is I've simply used better and that's why I mentioned I would've rather replaced our old FF with a front loader. Which technically, that FF was originally in our house and the washer we have now is a front loader. At one point, I thought top loaders were the way to go especially from using my Kenmore. But, I later found out that my front loader outcleans my Kenmore along with other things that I really do appreciate about front loaders.

I've seen people in laundomats stuffing as much as they could into washers, likely thinking it'll save them money for not using a 2nd machine. - typical abuse.
They're uneducated in proper loading techniques.

SpeedQueen knew this, that's why their machines held up better.

I go volunteer at a place once a week to do laundry and they have Speed Queen machines that are branded as Unimac. I'm sure no doubt commercial machines like those last longer, we still have to do laundry properly. For example we can only load in 15 towels per washer, otherwise they wouldn't clean as well or cause problems to the washers. And about once a year or so, I also go down to my mom's work to help her out with laundry as well. Like the Unimac machines, there's also a certain amount that goes into this old Milnor. As a result, it has lasted for a VERY long time.

I've been to my nearby laundomat in order to wash/freshen up my bed comforter.
Because it's obviously too much for my Maytag to deal with properly.
The laundromat has those big front-load machines as well.

While at the laundromat, I've seen numerous female customers packing those machines with laundry to the point of having to push firmly on the door to close it.
And tossing in a big cup of detergent meant for several loads!
I just shake my head and think "what morons!"
These women clearly are from other countries, and having different cultures and education than us Americans.
It's no wonder that they stink when I get near them - their clothes are dirty.
