Product review (5 stars): Highly Recommended!
Purchased from a local dealer but wanted to provided a review after 1 year of use. Bottom line: Highly recommended! Has operated flawlessly for our family of 4. Good, solid metal construction. Does an excellent job cleaning clothes. And it's fast and clothes are spun nearly dry! There are plenty of videos online comparing the Speed Queen to other brands. Simply put, the metal parts in this thing are the difference compared to the plastic junk that is built to fail in all other brands.  If you can spare the extra few hundred dollars, then you shouldn't hesitate to purchase this washing machine.
