My new SQ is here!

Fill Zone:

During those "Spray Rinses," does the machine spray over the top of the tub, to actually "Rinse" the suds away, or does it fire in via the side or onto the door. I know from our Miele that spraying over the door does little to rinse the clothes, if used in the manner described, as is the same with just standard water input through the top left of the drum. 

 

Do you know how high the water level is during the rinse? Do you have some sort of reference? I'm just curious, as this will be my first washer when I leave for University in a couple of years time.

Spray

Its hard to see exactly how far the water goes when its coming out. I tried looking the other day but right now my tap water is pretty cold that it clouds the glass a bit. I will try looking again next time I do wash. Also I dont use that much detergent that I have a lot of suds, so I may not be able to answer that question.

You cant see the water level during the rinse. The machine is set so that when the water has filled you can still stop the machine and open the door. If I remember, I will do a rinse/spin cycle so I can stop the machine and open the door to check and get back to you, k? If I stop it during a regular cycle and restart, it will go back to the start of the wash cycle - it wont pick up where it left off.

OK!

Sounds good to me!

Spin spray

The spin spray is from a nozzle over the door. The spray is a misted fan spray that is directed into the drum onto the spinning load of clothes.

On the delicate cycle, the tumbling speed is reduced. The Perm Press cycle uses a shortened wash time and a shortened final spin.

Sure wish they had kept the boosted hot model around.

Congratulations! My local LG dealer recently added the Speed Queen brand. I stopped in Saturday morning to check them out---he had both a TL and FL pair on the floor---and I can see why people at AW rave about the build quality. Here's to many, many repair-free loads of laundry.

Update on Rinse Cycle - washer111

As Malcolm says the spray reaches all the way to the back of the drum (allowing that the clothes only half fill the machine when wet).

I also stopped the machine to check how much water is in the drum during the rinse cycle. I was doing a queen size bed pad. I moved it aside (soaking wet) and there is water up to the lip of the drum.

Hope this helps! Any other questions, feel free to ask

I love the Speed Queen "Q" lights.
