Here's a short video of my Speed Queen washer, an earlier model with a smaller door, but it has the same tub and wash action. I was told the water level was lowered on the big door models.

Same dryer
I have the same SQ dryer, but have the TL washer instead. 2 years now and still going great. Knobs haven't yellowed yet in spite of being next to a window. The finishes still look like new. No unbalanced spins on my TL machine.
Congrats on your purchase. If I had the $$$ I'd buy the FL unit too. Yes, they do drip quality. The steel on these is simply solid. I went to the store the other day and felt-up the competition. Tin cans I say... On one competitors unit - when I went to open the dryer door the whole dryer lurched at me. Tin cans I say...

Made in Wisconsin
Last I checked, these SQ units were made in RIPON WISCONSIN.
In my book - that is a big plus...

Quality and Simplicity!
Hi Tom,
Great pics of your new SQ's! Love 'em! I love my TL and my gas dryer. Last Monday I did 9 pairs of jeans in the washer and handled it perfectly! It took a little while longer to dry them but with all that denim I can see why! They were perfectly dry and ready for the hangers when the buzzer went off.
I know you'll be very happy with you new machines and they will give you years and years of service! I love the "Q" on the front - mine has that too on the washer. Quality!
Take Care,
Mike

Congratulations

Congrats on the new Queens, I have had mine since March 2005 and love them. Unfortunately the booster heater was not an option on the waher when I got it.

So, can you adjust the fill level on the SQ to get the water level up a little higher??
Keep us posted on these machines as you get to know them better. It's good to know there appears to be a high quality option for those of us who only found Whirlpool, Frigidaire and LG out there when we were shopping for our FL machines.

Those machines are not "cheesy." Definitely well-built. By the way, thanks for sharing that FL demo. Do you still happen to have the file that I might be able to collect? Imagine having both TL and FL SQ sounds to enjoy in my Vintage Appliance Videos folder.--Laundry Shark

I went to SQ web site but these models arn't there. Is there a site to get more info? Do they offer a stacking set?
Pulsator,
Thanks, I saw that set. It doesn't indicate that the washer has a heater. Now that I have one in my current Danby, I won't buy a washer without one.
