I am Martin I agree with most of your thoughts as usual, it’s amazing how bad made tags were in overall performance in the 70s compared to the other machines that were available in the US.
But as time has gone on those older Maytag‘s actually look better, and I’m sure any Maytag ever made including the lethargic AMPs will out wash this new Speed Queen for overall cleaning ability.

I’m going to guess that this new top load washer will cost Speed Queen at least 25% of their top load washer sales over the next couple years, if Speed Queen is smart they will start emphasizing their excellent frontloading washers were they truly have a better product than anybody else.
SQ offee a front loaders with heater and I would consider it.
@johnrk: People are entitled to their opinions, and may even know something the other person does not. One thing I've noticed on this forum is that only certain view points and certain preferences are allowed to prevail. When the side disparaging has just as many flaws they refuse to acknowledge. Those wanting traditional fast agitator washers are not just a fringe minority, but rather plentiful. Anyone that has read reviews or overheard appliance store talk knows this. Second people who can appreciate something, should. Mourning the loss of Bendix and Westinghouse front loaders would be warranted even by your standards since it was the last of the HE machines in the US since the late 90s. As for people designing machines- and really any engineer- has to work on a budget and the codes at hand. They are human, make mistakes- and are really forced to do what they have to do.
machine sounds
I wonder what the new 2018 speed queen top load machines will sound like.

Thank you chetlaham, hey Yogi...you're right Yogi it is about being able to survive into and adapting to the future.
Two motors
They could have added a second motor for the spin and used the agitation motor as they designed it. The reversible agitation motor could then be coupled to the agitator but not the tub. The drain motor could be eliminated with the draining combined with the spin motor. This would result in a machine that operates as the current model does. But with no gearbox. Do I hear 1140 rpm direct drive?

Fascinating how you somehow have gleaned what my "standards" are from a few posts on here. Waiting to hear your qualifications for armchair psychiatry...
As a businessman for three decades, and a scientist involved in medical research and product design and development, it's so valuable to be educated by someone as yourself. And what is it that you do for a living--outside of armchair psychiatry, of course.

Hmm, thanks again chetlaham.
@johnrk: I'm not taking your bait. Asking people if they cried over X machine and to then get over it- then accusing me of psychoanalysis when I called you out on doing just that. I think its clear you're trying to get a rise out of me and other members.

Its not fair that forum members have to be shamed over the very thing this forum was built for: the appreciation of old and new appliances alike. But considering that his post received 4 likes as of typing this and people continually trying to make others feel crazy or inferior for liking (or even collecting) certain machines shows everything thats wrong with this forum. Many of us come here to escape the judgment and to find like minds, only to encounter the very thing we are trying to take a break from in the first place.

Oh no, it hasn't got to chetlaham, that's why I didn't respond...and of course I notice the 'likes' as well...I can care less what he think, he does not know me! Now my respond was not meant to be taken so seriously...it's just a washing machine...besides manufactures are going to do what they want...I join this club for one reason, 'for the love of washing machines'...it was exciting to learn that there was actually a community of people that shared the same love...we all have ideas, feel things about, comment on but, personal remarks to be insulting do not require responses...that's all
well why not....this design worked for the Suzy Homemaker we all had as children...
same rollover?....lol
same rollover?....lol
But a fine washing machine Good to hear you are marching on Scrubflex. There are sill plenty who share that same love with you- and no one can rain on that parade!
