New Speed Queen Models Coming Soon!

The excitedly-touted new feature on the TR models seems to be a delay on locking the lid until the first spin.
A comment on the video says that the TR7X35 is an export model rated 3.5 cu ft based on the Canadian IEC standard vs. 3.2 cu ft based on the US DOE standard.
The machine in the video thumbnail is a toploader with the combined washer-dryer control panel from the SF7 stacked frontloader set on it ... photo editing or fake/AI.
The 6th character position TR700xWN (or BN for Black Matte color) probably is indication of a minor engineering revision moreso than a substantial new model.

This guy is an idiot , there is no larger TL washer coming out, there is no reason for a larger machine, a. dryer is always at least twice as large as a washer.
If you are interested in a larger washer get the FL models, they wash much larger loads than SQs top load machines.
The only change is the TR machines do not lock till the spin cycle.

Another website offering the machines for ordering has the front loader detailed with a steam refresh cycle.
An obvious typo, imo.

With all the conjecture of SQ listening to their customers and giving them what they want, I thought maybe Boosted Hot was making a comeback to the FL machines.
As I have stated before I wish that speed Queen would put a heater in their front load washer and John I am adamant about that feature I use the heater on my LG all the time
People have been too brainwashed with the wonderfulness of cold and basically barely warm water washing
When I put a 50/50 358277 mixing in my Speed Queen it was a noticeable improvement for the better. Personally I discovered that Tide Professional and many other detergent labelled for cold water washing actually do best not in cold water or hot water, but in warm water around ~100*F. Clothes come out clean, fresh and bright while saving energy.
I think ATC that guarantees true warm water washing should become standard on all MOL and TOL top load washers as this would provide the best results while using the least amount of energy. And yes, I do agree that heaters should be put in front load washers with cycles that provide various levels of assured temperature from 50*F to 195*F.
Personally my dream Classic Clean Speed Queen would have the control system of a early 2000s Kenmore washer. 3 Speed motor, motor speed selector switch with fast/fast; slow/fast; slow/slow; extra slow/slow; intermittent extra slow/slow; slow/fast, ATC, variable water level, extra rinse selector, pre-wash, soak, Ultra Clean with Ultra Rinse system, Permanent Press II with half tub drain cool down, fabric softener dispenser, dual action agitator and all porcelain on steal cabinet.
I remember the boosted hot on the speed queens that were from the '90s and I'm disappointed they never brought it back but then again it wouldn't be a speedy Queen

I used to appreciate Speed Queen's designs, particularly their mention of having an all-metal gear transmission for ruggedness and durability.
I also was impressed by their use in commercial laundromats, where breakdowns would cost the owners time and money. - so they were made to handle abuse by customers.
But was that all just marketing talk?
I suggested SQ to a few friends, who thanked me and got SQ's - the older models. - so far, so good.
But that contraption shown here, with its "busy" panel of computerized controls turns my stomach.

I remember seeing the user manual for those and wanted one so bad. I think they should've just kept the heater as it wasn't forced to be on. Users could choose if they wanted the heat boost or not. I still think it would have been worth it instead of removing the feature altogether.
