Product review (5 stars): American built...and built to last!
We had our Maytag A712 washer and dryer set when we were first married, that went with us on each move..to graduate school...back home...and moves within the city.  They were bulletproof... washed and dried great...then finally the dryer died after many, many years.  We tried the Eco scene...twice..and the last set, which was quite expensive, the dryer died, was fixed and then died again after only a total of 5 years. So we started shopping 1 month ago. Every appliance store sales person that we talked to said "expect these sets to last for 4-5 years". That was not acceptable. Then I set out to find what I had in the Maytag...solidly built, water that covered the clothes, and an agitator, not a 'wash plate'.  All of that found in the Speed Queen set. American built...and built to last. My wife and I are looking forward to many great years together with this set ...and not having to look for another disposable another set in 4-5 years
