New Washer Delima

[desmoface]

I’m in the same boat, my washer has been acting up lately, so I have to research new ones. I was set to bite the bullet on a Speed Queen TC5, but I ran across a Facebook group called “Speed Queen, Rinse and Regret.” The group is chock full of unhappy Speed Queen owners. Some of them recommended the Maytag MVWP586GW commercial grade, but I’ve read about them having issues. I’m tempted to just buy another cheap one, like my current Kenmore/Whirlpool, but they really stink compared to what used to be available. Kinda sad.

My brother's Maytag bit the dust and it's not even five years old. I already recommended them a TC5 or a used direct drive Whirlpool but it sounds like they're looking to upgrade to a LG front loader. I really don't see how you can go wrong with the SQ as I think that's the last good top loader on the market today because it works like old school.

It's a front loader and that gets my big vote over anything else!! Generally I've come to loathe top loaders. Nothing beats an old school belt drive Whirlpool product.
