Product review (5 stars): LOVE THIS SPEEDQUEEN WASHER!
We bought this washer a year ago;  not sure if I ever reviewed....but I LOVE this washer! Now, it certainly has had some test of time.  After having a Maytag washer & dryer last 30 years, I anticipated good results with our second set.  Not so.......one broke down after 10 years doing light laundry for 2 retirees! We researched the Speed Queen as my father-in-law sold them years ago, and swore by them. So, this basic machine had the features I wanted, and the price was much more affordable.  This machine is great......washes well, uses the green detergent, is QUIET! My last Maytag sounded like percussion when spinning!  I'd highly recommend this washer; the bin is large, the cycle is not lengthy like my daughter's LG, it does not have a lot of electronic controls to have one go, and then the entire washer needs replacing.  Again, this washing machine does the job, and well! I'd give it a good look if you're researching new machines.
