Hi Malcolm. Can you actually see the water and suds sloshing? Would be nice to know that these machines do add a little more water?

Thanks

Speed Queen Values from 1960...

From a magazine ad in 1960...

IF you are more interested in built-in quality than exterior frills...

IF you want the joy of a consistently clean, lint-free wash...

IF you prefer simple, easy-to-understand controls that give you accurate dialing for all fabric and soil conditions...

IF you'd like a dryer that can be cycled either to stop when the clothes are dry [thermostat controlled], or according to specific time...

IF you want the most trouble-free home laundering service you can possible get...

THEN, before you buy a new washer or dryer, DO SEE the new 1960 SPEED QUEENs!

Looks like they're still holding true to these values. These were the reasons that I chose Speed Queen in 2009.

Water and Suds

Yes, I can see water and suds sloshing around with the clothes. The water level doesn't come up on the door mind you, but there is plenty of water in the machine to adequately wash and rinse a load.

Malcolm, did you decide to keep the pedestals? If so, would mind to snap a pic of them with the pedestals? Thanks!

Pedestals

Yeah. I decided to keep them. I'll try to take a couple of pix tonight when I get home and post them.

Stainless dryer interior...

Cool, if you could snap a pic of the stainless dryer, that would be awesome too.

When my Oasis keels over, I will definitely replace it with a SQ. I miss hearing belt drive noises, REAL detergent and seeing WATER.
