Looking to buy a Speed Queen
Comments (1)There are hundreds of threads on the Laundry Forum on Speed Queens. Here are links to the top 2 threads that came up when I did a search there for "Speed Queen", but you could keep reading on that forum for hours. Thread called 2015 Speed Queen Washer/Dryer Thread Called New Front Load Speed Queens...See MoreGE seems ready to launch a Top Load Speed Queen Rival
Comments (20)Front Loaders are great machines, but they're not for everyone. Many of the "early adopters" in North America were disillusioned by machines that were fraught with problems (Maytag Neptune anyone?) ....... and of course the mold issue. Americans also do laundry differently than Europeans do. Research has shown that we like to do the bulk of our laundry on a single day as opposed to the European method of doing multiple loads throughout the week. Longer cycle times than top loaders make that more difficult. I also think we in the USA are somewhat resistant to change. Top loaders are still the preferred format as evidenced by the 75% of the market they hold. Manufacturers will have to get creative but as long as the demand is there, they won't be disappearing anytime soon....See MoreSpeed Queen Front loads have arrived!!
Comments (9)WOW...they are gorgeous!!! I was really, really considering this set. The only thing that kept me from ordering, was the dryer does not reverse tumble & when I called SpeedQueen in Wisconsin and I asked how sheets and blankets do not get rolled into a tight, hot and moist ball.....The lady told me: "They will sometimes unfortunately". PLEASE let me know how the dryer does with these items. Also, the Rep. told me on the washer, if you DO NOT use the Eco mode, you should be able to see water levels for the wash and rinse cycles....can you let us know how much water? CONGRATULATIONS!! Very happy for you! Impressive units!!!!...See MoreNew Speed Queen washer louder than older Speed Queen. Normal?
Comments (14)TR3, TR5 and TR7 models have a different type of motor and no mechanical transmission/gears so they operate quieter. They have no spin brake (takes a while for the drum to coast to a stop if the lid is opened during spin) which is why the lid is required to lock (for safety). The TC5 model, which apparently is your new unit, has an old-style motor (noisier) and transmission (noisier) to drive the agitator, and a spin brake which stops the drum quickly if the lid is opened so it doesn't need to lock....See Morelaundryvet
