Product review (2 stars): Speed Queen needs better quality control! Drum seams are rough & grease in tub.
The seams are very rough on the tub. Not all the time but I have had snagged, ripped & torn clothing & towels. I did not overfill the machine.  We had a service guy come to the house & he verified the bad tub. I had it replaced & this is worse. This one goes off balance & really makes loud banging noise. At least the first one did not go off balance...I wished I would of just replaced the tub in the first one. Now, the dealer will replace the tub in the first which was probably scratched being sent back & or the one I have now which goes off balance. He said he would also give me a refund...but I bought the matching dryer :(  It also seems like the replacement washer agitates differently.  I like having more water to wash the clothes but can't afford to keep replacing clothing & towels....this is why I didn't stick with the front loaders. I did call speed queen & they said they never had this happen. The guy said they are checked before they are sent out. Well, they need new quality control people!! Also, both machines had the black grease in them. I tried cleaning it out & ran some loads with hot water and tide. Even put towels in and there is still some grease film on the drum. My husband was mad that his jeans were ruined.
Tub does not fill all the way but reset button can be used to get more water. But, when the machine fills up again for the fabric softener rinse cycle,you have to catch it in time & use the reset to bring the water level back up. I do like the fabric select so that you can use a slow agitate & a higher spin to drain the water. There is a switch to use if you want an extra rinse cycle. The only thing about that is the fabric softener releases on the first rinse.
