Eugene, I paraded your video through the SQ twitter page yesterday and got one of the SQ loyalists who comments positively on everything to reconsider.

At 1:07, are they showing a commercial machine?
Shame on that level of deception.
I would leave a very enlightening comment, but don't want to risk my YouTube account since I am willing to bet they will give Google a ear bashing.

Nobody is mentioning the dryers. I am curious to know if there have been any improvements with their performance? The five-year old Gas one I own has always been SLOW. Especially when compared to my 1969 Whirlpool Gas dryer.
And, just like the washer, will tangle a full load of sheets. The Electric dryer at my office is equally slow.

Speed Queen dryer
Here is the truth that has stopped me from buying SQ dryer: Whirlpool top mount lint filter dryers are simply the best bar none. They are the fastest and gentlest dryers on the market. Not to mention easy to fix and parts are plentiful. I think there are more of them then actual DDs in existence. I considered buying a dryer at the same time when purchasing my washer, but the WP center dial Maytag dryer was to new and much to good of a dryer. In fact if I was a buy a laundry pair at this exact instant it would be a 2017 SQ or SQ FL with a MOL Whirlpool dryer even though style wise they are worlds apart. In fact GE's dryers aren't that bad either in terms of performance and being quiet. SQs dryers never swayed me much unlike their washers.

Just noticing-did you see the "made in China" components on the closeup of one of the boards?Guess that's the norm with all circuit boards these days.
Good eyes. I missed it, but yahhh, not surprised. I think SQ wants out of the resi market.

That was definitely NOT the AgiTub thing.

Yup- thats what I suspected. Shame on SQ. They don't want people seeing the anemic wash action.

I sent my aunt Eugenes last video and her response was exactly this: "How could that honestly get anything clean when it's not really agitating it's just swishing the clothes around you could come out with cleaner clothes washing them by hand".
Methinks the lidlock had nothing to do with keeping children's arms out during spin cycle...

Smaller Tub Size?
Not much of a difference, but the models are now live on AJMadison. The old models are already discontinued by them.

It wont take long
They will be selling 0 washers! This thing really is pitiful.I will stick to my good old antiques.

So, they can't handle some constructive criticism about their products. This highly suggests they know this is not as good as the former. Screw them and their new fangled pieces of crap. I wouldn't have that damn thing in my house!

'roo' knows...
SQ says they've sold over a million machines in Australia.(I don't know the period of time for this.) Maybe they don't give a rip about USA sales.
I don't understand what ''new regulations'' would allow the new washer and not the previous.
I love my 2012 AWN542,but the new transless makes 0 sense to me as it uses the same amount of water,but seems ineffective and sounds like it's in pain.
I wish SQ no ill will,but DAMN,who is in charge here?!
I'm 63 and hope my 542 lasts as long as I do. Cheers,Bill

New SQ TL Washer
Spins out more water and uses a 1/4 of the electricity to run the motor, it also for the first time has auto sensing for load size to use less water on the Eco-Normal cycle.

But I have to disagree... I really don't care what the usage is on this machine. It just plain S--ks.
Watching all of Eugene's Vids, what is there to like ???
Poor turnover, Lame Washing, Wadding sheets... reminds me of a Early Westy Front loader.
This would never be in my collection even for shits and giggles.
Just Horrible. In my own opinion, there is not even one thing to like. And I understand John being a SQ guy and distributor, but I ( not being in the business) think this line will hurt you. Just on the consumer end.
But I love that New Maytag Commercial made by Whirlpool.
Speed Queen's new Top Loader will be nothing but a head ache.
Nonsense... SQ Small load of Whites.
Maytag vid is small load of Whites.
Which would you choose ?

high hopes washed away
I had high hopes for this machine. It did okay with the first load. However, the more videos I saw, the less hopeful I became. They really had something going here.

I keep watching the Maytag vid and it reminds me of a Old School "Tag" but with a smidgen quicker stroke than our beloved Helicals...
There’s no way they didn’t know
I think they are trying to shift away from the working class person to the upper middle class. I noticed their front page went from dirty construction workers to housewives.
Their new machine checked a lot of boxes
1. Agitator
2. Quiet
3. Reliable
4. Full tub of water
Like I said in my review, I’m sure there will be a large group of people who think this washer does well. Sq just alienated their entire fan base (betrayed really). This washer may be well received initially, but I put this washer in the ranks of the calypso washer, oasis, Neptune TL, etc.
It’s just a really expensive washer that doesn’t perform very well.
