Product review (5 stars): Best washer you can buy
Best washer you can buy! For all you buyer's out there about to buy a fancy top loading with all the water saving features,,,,, RUN!
I purchased one and in a 12 month period it was repaired some many times you would not believe it if I told you. To spare you the long story, we finally had the non-water saving machine removed and bought a Speed Queen washer and dryer. To our amazement it washed clothes and dried them with no problems and very fast. Just like the old ones use to 30 years ago. The biggest problem with the "new water saving machines" is that they don't save water at all. They take 3 to 4 hours to wash and are constantly refilling the tub in the attempt to balance the load. Not to mention all the codes they throw because they can't balance the load or low water pressure codes. It was the worst 12 months for my life.
Don't let the salesperson tell you all the problems with the machine as if it's not a problem. They cannot wash worth a darn because they don't use enough water while washing and they use a ton of water trying to finish the spin cycle.
The Speen Queen washer is amazing, you can throw anything in the washer and it wash it! ( This Is a Guy thing) The Speed Queen dryer works great! The dryer has a simple lint catcher that doesn't allow tint to build up on the inside the machine like other lint screens.
I hope this helps you from making a very painful mistake.
