My husband and I have been trying to get our dryer fixed for 2 months now. Every time I call Speed Queen to get an update, they tell me the part needed is on back order. It has been two months and this situation has forced us to spend lots of unbudgeted money at the laundromat. Speed Queen hasnt tried to offer us any alternatives to our situation. Our washer also had an issue when our dryer stopped heating, as well. It wasnt dispensing fabric softener into our laundry and kept it retained in the area it was poured into. I was able to find someone to fix it rather quickly.These appliances came with a seven year warranty, so I submitted a claim to be reimbursed for the repair on the washer several weeks ago. I have received nothing to date. We have only owned this set for two years. That is SAD, given Speed Queens reputation of having good quality, long-lasting products. This is why we purchased this brand in the first place, but are obviously extremely disappointed that the standards they advertise are inaccurate. We will NEVER own a Speed Queen appliance AGAIN after this horrific experience.Customer service isnt the best either. One of the agents I have spoken with during this long and drawn out ordeal told me that they had changed their policy regarding reimbursements and tried to tell me because I had to get a third-party person to fix my washer, that they werent going to reimburse me. I have emails I have saved which contain another agent telling me I COULD get a third-party person to fix it because the service people they recommended refused to come to my area. How CONFUSING and UNCARING. Even the agents arent on the same page. The one who tried to tell me they wouldnt reimburse saw that the claim for the washer had been approved despite what she had previously told me. Unfortunately, it has taken 2 months for us to realize Speed Queen isnt the company we thought they were and we regret ever doing business with them. Buyers BEWARE.

I love my washer Model # AWN412SP111TW01. It washes great and it is much better than the ones with all the fancy technology features on them. This washer operates more like the washers I used to have and it washes in an appropriate length of time. I love the fact that this washer does not have the feature that locks your lid when you start your wash. My washer is more like the way washers used to be built years ago and not just some fancy technology that quits working right after your warranty goes out. The only thing that could be improved is that the water could be spun out a little more so that the clothes are not quite as damp when the wash cycle is over. This isnt really a problem but just a preference for me.

I really thought I was getting the best! I who worked for Maytag owned a 34 yr old Maytag had no problems. As many folks know, Maytag washers are not the same. And, like many other did some research. Seeing that this units normally cost around $1,000.00 for just the washer, was getting great price of $833.24, Yeah! and that a price is crazy too! When I installed it. (And Ive installed my Maytag and Dryer 34 yrs ago.) I can install appliances. I felt really good. I had it for 10 days and its looks and feels very solid! However, the washer stopped or would not go into a spin mode. Only the two blue lights would flash. Since, I tried calling Speed Queen (no one returned my call). I researched YouTube to see how to do a Force Spin. I also wanted to make sure that my drain line was clear and no clogs. (No Clogs.)The next day, I drove over to the Appliance Factory and Mattress Kingdom Store to explain my Dilemma. I wanted to bring it back and purchase a Classic model and pay the extra $200.00. (My wife thinks Im nuts to stay with Speed Queen.) We cant do that, unless Speed Queen approves the return. So, I thought, Well lets have Speed Queen send someone out to repair it. If they cant repair it, the store will take it back. The store sent out a repair man, and he looked professional. But, I could tell hes never worked on TR3003Wn Speed Queen. After he replaced the door switch, he called Speed Queen. They too thought it had to be clog, but he even said, no it has a good stream of flush water. Seeing that he replaced the door switch, and called to learn how to do a force spin, I thought it was fixed! I felt good.Two days later, at 7 Am. I did another wash. At 7:20 I watched the machine and it seemed like it was trying to go into a spin (click, click, click) And, then the lights (Wash/Spin) switched to blue and began to flash. So, I unplugged it (waited 30 sec.). Powered it back up and after 2 attempts was able to get into a force spin. What a pain in the **! So, I called the repair place again, and explained to the repair man what happened. I explained to the guy, the Store is willing to exchange the unit, provided it cant be fixed! So repairman, says hell will order a complete New Control Panel and New Pump. Thats where we are at as of 3/11.You should know that Im disputing my Credit Card Payment Via US Bank and hope theyll see our side and I plan to just drop off this Washing Machine back to Appliance Factory & Mattress Kingdom off where I bought it. My wife thinks Im nut dealing with this store. Look Lowes has Maytag and Whirpool for only $649.00. Im sure theyd replace it if you had a problem. My wife can not figure out how to put this unit into a spin mode. Too many procedures to follow to get the water out. Bottom line, do not buy this Speed Queen Model TR3003wn, However, if it has to be a Speed Queen, buy the TC5000 Classic. And, your wife and your life will a lot happier.

I love this washer. It is the same washer they put in coin operator cleaners. The drum is made of steel and takes a lot of heavy clothes. I am amazed at how quiet it is. What I like best is that if I forget to add something, I can open the top and add it. Many washers lock the door once it starts. This washer is the only one made totally in the USA and comes with a three year guarantee. I have heard people say that their Speed Queen has lasted the 20 or more years.

I purchased a TR5 Speed Queen Washer in December 2019. It started malfunctioning even before the delivery truck was out of my driveway. The whole control panel was then replaced at the end of December 2019. Today, January 12, 2020, it is malfunctioning again. The lid locking mechanism works sometimes, but not other times. Im afraid that this will cause the machine to stop working completely as did the prior problem. This machine is not living up to its reputation. Maybe this one is just a lemon, but hopefully I can get a replacement or a working machine at some point. This was a $1,000 machine.

La mejor lavadora y secadora que se ha fabricado nunca - ¡superior a cualquier otra del mercado! Es un producto fiable y seguro: lo he tenido durante más de 4 años sin necesidad de mantenimiento. Compraría otra Speed Queen antes que cualquier otra del mercado.

We have had both the washer and dryer for seven years with no problems or service calls. Ten year guarantee on the washer is comforting and they both perform at a quality level. The only complaint we have is that the washer does not have a buzzer, but the dryer does.

I wanted a good reliable washing machine, like the good old days! It didn�€�t matter about looks, or fancy stuff, I needed a workhorse that would clean clothes with heavy usage. I couldn�€�t take a chance. Speed Queen is the brand used in laundromats. I got a Speed Queen, and couldn�€�t be happier!

I recently purchased a 2020 Speed Queen top load washer and matching gas dryer. The products were highly rated and I must say they perform well. I did find an issue with the washer only. When the machine is running it generates an RF field that almost totally interferes with AM radio broadcasts. This happens when a portable (battery powered) or plug in radio is used. This never happened with previous GE washer or Kenmore washer that I owned over the past 40 plus years. I contacted their service dept. online and explained the situation. The response was, We sell a filter kit to remedy this situation but it is not covered by your warranty. I priced the kit at various sites and they run anywhere from $145 on up. Now mind you this is for part only. Installation was not even mentioned. I find this unreasonable as they admit to a problem by offering a fix at the consumers expense.

We bought this because it was big and the salesman said it was reliable and it fit our budget. So far so good. It seems to do a pretty good job cleaning our clothes. Our old washer and dryer were Maytag and they lasted 22 years and cleaned well. At the time we were buying new ones we needed something less expensive. They seem to be doing a good job.

Purchased Speed Queen washer and dryer from Orvilles in Buffalo New York. 4 years later the heating element stopped working. 10 day lead time for part and half the cost of the dryer. Will never purchase a speed queen again, piece of junk.

I bought the Speed Queen for several reasons, their reputation, it was made in the USA (I thought) and the reliability. Ive had this washer over two years. It washes without issue. I can wash a large comforter with no problem and I havent had any service needs. HOWEVER, it DOES NOT get clothes clean. Ive tried switching detergents, smaller loads, everything. It simply doesnt get the clothes clean.Also, on Normal Wash, they should tell you that that means COLD WASH. There is no way to wash Normal on hot or warm, even if you have the temperature setting on hot or warm. It washes cold, ice cold. Prior to purchase, I did research and there was another Speed Queen that had reviews of not getting the clothes clean, but it was not this model. Add the TC5 to the list of disappointing washers. This washer was 3 times the price of washer with these options. Speed Queen is very basic. No fancy bells and whistles. What a huge waste of money. I do not recommend this washer and after my experience and I dont recommend Speed Queen.

Bought matching set in April of 18 after much research. Was not aware of redesign which changed everything! Reviews were based on 17 models and older. This washer is loud... Filling, running, just loud! Does OK job of washing... Just OK. Failed to start several times. Technician says sometimes computer board goes to sleep... Thats nice. Paid way too much to have sub-par performance right away. Better honor that long warranty they have. Thought we had made a long term purchase. Dont take my word for it. Check the web and YouTube videos. Made in U.S.A. used to mean something. Too bad.

Purchased a washing machine in September 2020. Upon the first use, the machine made this horrible annoying knocking noise. It is now February 2021 and after multiple service calls, we still have this machine with its horrible annoying knocking noise! A local technician was just here yet again today, and was even on the phone with Speed Queen for over an hour trying to get help to repair it, and still nothing. No one seems to know what is causing the noise, or how to fix it. Wouldnt it make sense to replace the machine? Perhaps its defective? Or am I just suppose to take multiple more days off work to accommodate technicians until they get it fixed?

We purchased a Speed Queen washer and dryer for our new home in December 2017. I was surprised to see that were making these for home use as I used to work for a man who had several commercial washing centers in Philadelphia. These were the best machines ever. Now after using this for a few months it takes so long to dry towels and when washing new towels this week they came out with all kinds of pulled loops on towels, hand towels and washcloths. Very disappointed with this dryer. Washer also does not have a longer time to wash. Only 29 minutes max for heavy duty. What�€�s up with that?

I could not be more disappointed in an appliance, and Ive been buying them for my home for over 40 years. We had our Speed Queen dryer one month (!) and it stopped working. Cracked terminal block. Part not in stock! Long wait for repair.

I purchased a New Speed Queen Electronic Front Load Washer and matching dryer in 12/16. I have had problems with them since day 1. The washer is not wringing out the clothes causing issues with the dryer. The washer drops fabric softener into the wash cycle so the clothes do not come out soft. I have had 8 service calls so far and they have fixed NOTHING! I am getting ready to contact the Attorney Generals Office to see what can be done. This washer is supposed to last for 25 years and be fully warrantied for 5. I am so unhappy with Speed Queen and Freds Appliance who sold me this JUNK.

My mother normally used the Speed Queen ringer washer to wash clothes for 7 people on a regular basis and there were no problems with it as I recall. She was hospitalized for a while and that was when I used it when I was 18 years old -- Im now 65. It was a pretty basic ringer washer, but its features were fine at the time because me and my family lived on a small farm in the country. There really wasnt space for what was referred to back then as an automatic washer. So the ringer washer suited fine. The main features were a stainless-steel tub and the ringer. It was of course portable (on wheels).

We purchased a Speed Queen Washing Machine in 2017 after it was highly recommended to us by a trusted appliance technician and internet research. The washing machine worked satisfactorily until approximately five weeks ago. Water was noticed under the machine after doing a load of laundry. We thought it might be due to our water well/septic system because of very wet weather. We waited to do any further laundry until the septic tanks were drained. After the septic tanks were drained, a load of laundry was started and our laundry room flooded. We contacted an appliance technician who informed us the wash tub was cracked. A major repair. Since he did not perform warranty work on Speed Queen machines, we contacted Speed Queen customer service and a technician came out. He informed me that he ordered the tub replacement from Speed Queen but could not give me any information about when the tub would arrive. I contacted him two days later since I had not heard from him about when to expect the tub replacement, and my husband had an upcoming surgery and would need clean sheets, towels etc. after surgery. The technician informed me that he still had no information about the parts arrival from Speed Queen. I called Speed Queen customer service the same day but they had no information on the arrival of the part. Two days later, a Friday, I was able to learn from customer service (when I called back) that the part would arrive the following Tuesday. I contacted the technician, who still had not been notified of the parts arrival by Speed Queen, and we scheduled an appointment for Wednesday morning. The tub replacement arrived in a defective state and could not be installed. The technician contacted Speed Queen before he left my home that Wednesday morning to request a second tub replacement since the one sent was defective. No one could provide him with an arrival date for the second tub replacement. I called Speed Queen the same day and the customer service representative told me shipment of the part would be expedited. When I checked with the technician two days later, again on a Friday, he informed me that he had heard nothing from Speed Queen. I reached out to Speed Queen immediately and after numerous phone calls learned the tub replacement was not expedited (though I was previously told otherwise) but was due to arrive the following Tuesday. The technician was again scheduled to install it on a Wednesday morning. This never happened because the (second) tub replacement did not arrive according to the technician. Speed Queen claimed it did. Both my husband and I contacted Speed Queen customer service that Wednesday and both of us were informed by two different representatives that the tub replacement (now the third attempt to obtain this part) would be overnighted directly to our home, not the technicians address. Based on their representation, we scheduled an appointment with a different Speed Queen technician to install the tub replacement. The representation by Speed Queen turned out to be untrue. The tub replacement did not arrive the next day as we were told. The repair appointment had to be cancelled. That day, customer service told us the matter had been turned over to management and they had no details or information about when the part would reach us as technical oversaw that. We requested a call back from customer service once they were able to obtain this information from management or technical but no one contacted us. I received an email letting me know that customer service did not know anything about when the part would be shipped. In frustration, I reached out again to customer service several times the following day. They had different stories every time; no one could give me any information on when we would receive the tub replacement. A week later, Speed Queen has yet to contact us about the status of sending the tub replacement to repair our washing machine. Speed Queens misrepresentations and inaction forced us to purchase a new washing machine this week. Its customer service department is unlike any I have encountered. They give misinform nation and misrepresentations. They provide no actual information or assistance to the customer. They demean customers and give the clear impression that Speed Queen could care less if the customers washer is repaired or not. Because of our awful experience with Speed Queen, I cannot recommend its washing machine to anyone. Instead, I recommend avoiding this brand.

I purchased a new Speed Queen Commercial Top Load washer and front load dryer in June 2016. Within a week I had service come out to try to fix the thumping in the dryer. Repairman came out 3 times and decided I needed a new drum! That helped but didnt really fix the noise. Today, Dec. 2019, the repairman told me my washer needs a new motor and some other parts, that is why it wont start or just cuts out. It trips the circuit too. Ive had clothes with water sitting in the machine for a week waiting on the repairman to get here to fix it. He had to install new roller bars in the dryer for the thumping, and I guess we will see how long that lasts. I am very disappointed in this set. I want my old Maytag set back that I had been using for 15 years with no issue, but the buyer of my house wanted them so I let them go. I should not have done that. Today I paid $157 and who knows what the washer repair will be.

Compré mi Speed Queen TR5 en diciembre, después de haber tenido varias Whirlpools mediocres a lo largo de los años. Antes de tomar mi decisión, miré más lavadoras de las que me gustaría admitir, leyendo reseñas, comparando características, viendo vídeos de YouTube de gente revisando y lavando ropa en varias máquinas. De verdad. Mi cabeza se sentía como el ciclo de centrifugado.

I have to say something because Im disgusted with this machine. Probably the most sturdy machine out there but simply does not clean good. My wifes dress clothes come out with the white marks on blacks. We have tried different soaps, and every possible setting to no avail. Extra rinses and all. Forget about my work jeans. They come out of this machine looking just as dirty as I put them in. I wish I kept my good perfectly running old washer with the good old agitator. I seriously dont know what Speed Queen was thinking of when they designed this machine. Think about this review before you buy this $1000 machine.

Huge, clean laundromat that has all you need. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I highly recommend Speed Queen for your next laundry day. The dryers are huge and the washers cleaned clothes very well.

I purchase a Speed Queen because I had the last one for over 30 years. I wish I had researched the new machines better. I bought a top load TC5003WN and it is terrible. It has very few options you can choose for yourself. For example, you cannot control the water level. It has a small and large load water level, nothing in between. The autofill barely covers the clothes in the tub. Ive had to wash my clothes twice and we are only 2 adults here who do not get that dirty. Secondly, the fabric softener gets on my clothes and again, I had to wash them again. There is no rinse only cycle on this machine. I have added water to the fabric softener to dilute it, but it still stained a nightgown. I wish I had my old machine back. Id spend whatever it took to get a new tub on it, at least I could control the washings. I really hate this unit. The only good thing I will say is that it is very quiet. Unbelievable that this made in America product from this company is so bad. Sorry to be so negative, but I wish someone had warned me about these details before I bought.

I purchased a new set of Speed Queens on 2/28/17. These are commercial grade Washers & Dryers. I have NEVER had a problem with other dryers and a friend raved about her new Speed Queen product so we decided to look into them. Since purchasing this �€�High Efficient�€� washer and dryer I have had to dry my clothes, towels, etc. twice each time. How efficient is that? I had a repairman come out. He told us the problem was in the vent. My husband had cleaned out the vent before he showed up so afterward he did it again and was given the �€�all clear�€� from another service. The Speed Queen repairman came a second time. The only thing he could tell us was that there was nothing more he could do and it�€�s something we have to put up with. What??? Put Up With??? Not acceptable. Today we had another repairman come out to test the heating element. His answer was the heating element was not running as it should. He will order a new part. WHAT??? A new part on a brand new Dryer? Now I realize I said it was purchased in February and this is November but please take into consideration that we are gone from June-October so this dryer was not in use at that time. This is totally ridiculous. I can�€�t believe Speed Queen, a company that is supposed to be the Number 1 seller of Washers & Dryers, would not replace this unit. So wrong. I will NEVER buy another one.

Mi esposa andamp; Tuve una carga superior Sears Kenmore (manf. Whirlpool) Heavy Duty Serie 60 lavadora que compramos (junto con la secadora) segunda mano andamp; utilizado para 20 años, a lo largo del camino reemplazando perros agitador andamp; 2 interruptores de la tapa, y un par de otras cosas que canandt incluso recordar, manteniendo que va mucho después de que muchos wouldandve dado por vencido andamp; tirado. Finalmente, en algún momento en 2017, llegó a donde sería ciclo completamente en sólo 1 de los ajustes del interruptor principal, así que tuve que decidir si la oportunidad de comprar un nuevo interruptor principal en aproximadamente $ 140 andamp; instalarlo correctamente, o dar el paso andamp; obtener una nueva lavadora totalmente.

I should have did more research before I bought this product. I was looking for a top loader with an agitator that actually agitated like the washing machines we use to buy back in the 70s & 80s. Machines that were made to wash your clothes and not give them a soothing bath. First of all with this washer the lid locks and I feel that is the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen. I would give anything to break it off and shove it up the persons butt who came up with this stupidity. If parents today cannot control their kids and keep them away from things that are not there for them to play with, then we should not have to have a locking mechanism on the lid. Secondly, I would like to be able to open the lid and see if there is enough soap as the machine is working; this does not happen. And as for cleaning the clothes; not frigging likely. It is a bigger piece of crap than my front loader was. I would gladly send these pieces of garbage back to Speed Queen and get my money back and go and buy back my front loader. I am so upset every time I use this machine it gives me a headache. I am tired of dealing with all the stupidity that there is in this world. Something seriously needs to be told to these so called engineers to try and stop re-inventing the wheel. If it aint broke dont fix it. Leave the damn thing alone. It was working fine without your intervention. As for the dryer; not to impressed with that either. Stupid place for the lint screen; at the front of the door and wide open. Not too bright.

Purchased a Speed Queen washer & dryer from Gerrits Appliance in Grand Rapids Michigan. Both appliances have all of these light brown spots on them. Gerrits came out once to clean them but they only returned. Have been trying to get Speed Queen/Gerrits to take them back to no avail. Also, when drying clothes when you open the dryer door the lint gets all over the clothes. SQ sent me something but I already had one which does not work. Also, the timers are so quiet you cannot hear them when the cycle is done on either the washer or dryer. I have never had such poor service from either place, but especially SQ. I spoke with a man by the name of John and he did absolutely nothing. I then left two messages for him but he never returned my calls. I would not buy another SQ. Both appliances and customer service are worthless. Be very careful before you buy.

Our Speed Queen washer and dryer are separate units, bought at different times (washer 4 yrs, dryer 2 yrs). Both very ample capacity, perform well, and have been reliable so far. The only negative thing is they are more expensive than many other brands, but maybe they will last longer, too.

We bought the Speed Queen front load washer and dryer in the fall of 2017. Its now almost a year later and we are absolutely as pleased as is humanly possible with them. The washer is fast and quiet and the dryer does an amazing job of drying. Doing laundry has never gone this fast! Zero problems, using less detergent than ever and saving $$$. Thank you Speed Queen!

TR3 and DR3 washer and dryer. Told the sale man we are farmers and get pretty dirty at times. He said Speed Queen without a doubt, which was the most expensive. Well it cant clean worth a **. Found out the drum and agitator are one and locked together, so no agitating. Just spins the drum back a forth. My pant legs come out dirty in the folds. Went as far as stapling, yes stapling the fold open and re-washing again. I find more dirt in the lint trap of the dryer then lint itself. Speed queen calls it gentle I call it **. Replaced it with a used dual agitator washing machine for 1/5th the cost and now just lint in the dryer and way, way, way cleaner clothes. The dryer has needed to be serviced twice with all this being less then a year old. Things get caught between the spinning drum and the seal and some load sensor turns the dryer off. Feel completely ripped off. Now Im going to sell it cheap and honestly cause cant stand seeing it sitting there unused.

Two weeks after I got the set the washer would randomly not turn on. If I let it sit for awhile it would start but this happened constantly. Turns out this is a known problem with some of the control panels. Why on earth would they continue to sell washers that they knew might not work! I have been waiting almost 3 weeks for a replacement part but no end in sight. If Speed Queen had any integrity they would give me a new machine. Quality workmanship and putting the customer first is a thing of the past.

I really loved Speed Queen. I bought it because that is what my mother used and I am a traditional person, she was so pleased with her machine and is one I knew and grew up with so I knew I would love to be the owner of a Speed Queen washer and dryer. When I married and began my family we used it daily when the children came along and loved the experience of being owners. I enjoy that it is simple to use and so easy to operate, I could hold my child in one arm and add the softener when needed, I could unload and place in dryer with child in my arms, my husband could and was able to use this machine with ease and enjoyed the fact that it was very easy and simple to use, he never messed up the clothes he washes or dried. I was so grateful for that.I would love it to have an alarm or bell to tell when wash is completed and would love a signal for when to add the softener so that I could do other things while waiting for the chance to add. I would love to see it improved for the younger generation and also my two sons will know what brand to purchase when they marry or move out on their own.

I used my neighbors brand new Speed Queen top load washer they had just bought to try it out. I was shocked at how really poorly it washed my clothes. The dirt and stains on my clothing were all still there when they came out of their new 2018 washer. There was even some undissolved soap still on my clothes. I immediately went to the local laundromat, which I dread having to ever do and rewashed my clothes to get them clean and took them home to dry them. Needless to say, I will NOT be buying a speed queen when I replace mine. Amazing that Speed Queen would make something that this bad.

I purchased this machine new in late June 2017. However, Monday, August 7, 2017 I put a load in the washer, it gets off-balance and I find my garage full of smoke. The repairman later informs me that a belt broke, wrapped itself around the pulley and broke that as well. Here I am 6 days later, brand new BROKEN washer in my garage next to the growing mountain of dirty linens and clothes. Speed Queen apparently feels little incentive to get the parts to us as the appliance store is still waiting for them to arrive. Wow, I would say this is exactly the circumstance I hoped to avoid by buying this so called reliable brand. Yet it couldnt even handle a small off balanced load. Never been so unhappy with a purchase.

September 2018 we purchased the new washer. We had heard that they were a top notch machine since they were considered commercial. Well last night we had the machine shred plastic into our drum. We have no idea what happened. Today is Sunday so I have to wait until tomorrow to contact the supplier for service. Since the shredding of plastic was so bizarre I decided tonight to read some reviews to see if anyone else had this issue. Lo and behold sure enough Suresha of San Anselmo, CA posted a review about this exact same issue on Jan 20, 2019. Seems this machine is a lemon and defective.I will be taking this information to the store where we purchased our machine. I do not even want to go thru what she already went thru. I will see what our distributor does to correct this problem but I dont see anything other than replacing it with a new machine and even that based on the other reviews I have read about Speed Queen I dont want to stay with Speed Queen but I may have to just to try and get some of my money out of it.

We bought the SpeedQueen Commercial Heavy - Duty grade Washer (AWNE82SP113TW01) & Dryer (ADGE8RGS113TW01) in Feb 2018. Washer Cons: Short wash cycle does not get clothes clean. Additionally, the timed wash counts down even as it fills. It may use up 5 mins of the wash time before even being full. Cannot chose warm in its default ECO mode- essentially very cold only. Ridiculously loud wash cycle.Dryer Cons: Wetness Sensor doesnt do anything. However wet the clothes are at the end of the timed cycle - thats how theyll sit. Clothes are often damp after cycle finishes. If were not home to immediately start the Fluff cycle, clothes sit damp for hours/days. In short, the limited number of cycle options dont dry clothes. Im very concerned about energy efficiency, but not drying clothes doesnt make it a better unit.I did a good deal of research on this product before purchasing and really hoped for a better than box-store experience. (My wife has been very kind in not complaining about my well-reasoned choice.) Technically, the units work; we have not had any non-functional issues as some have reported here. And we make adjustments to get clothes clean & dry. In short, I wouldnt recommend either product and we regret our purchases. I hope the American made brand can get their act together going forward.

Researched washer and dryers for over 2 years while in the process of saving for the new machines, saved a little longer and a little more because the decision was made to get the reputable, American made, commercial quality �€�Speed Queen�€� brand. Certain I was getting what I was paying for, boy was I wrong. We settled on the old school simple styled TC5 and DC5 dryer, the washer has been okay but is actually worse than our previous GE top loader as in you can�€�t fill it with clothes and soap as the machine fills with water, the cavity is smaller and the water level is shorter, not to mention sometimes stains are not being removed and forget about deodorant stains without scrubbing first compared to our old washer, also at times the clothes I put on the top are still on the top at the end of the wash cycle so it�€�s as if the agitator hadn�€�t worked.My biggest complaint and problem however has been the dryer, right from day one it took 2 cycles to dry loads. We purchased this set in October 2020 and by March 2021 the dryer is now taking 4 and sometimes 5 restarts to completely dry loads. When I first tried to claim my warranties, which is only online Speed Queens request page was down for maintenance for weeks and I finally had to get through to them via Facebook and email to send me my warranties. In March being fed up with the length and energy it takes to dry a load of clothes we contacted the store we purchased them from �€�Rochester Appliance�€� and they said they wouldn�€�t service us under warranty because we are a county over, then tried saying it was our dryer vent (no) and then gave us a number of another service man.We called him and he won�€�t service us under warranty because we didn�€�t buy them from him. Called Speed Queen and they too gave us contact numbers for servicemen that wouldn�€�t work under warranty or that just didn�€�t exist. So ended up taking it to Facebook where I�€�ve met up and actually joined a group of others who have had the same issues, and discovered from them another common problem we all share is a burnt, melty, sharp (from melting/burning) grate at the back of our dryers starting to rip and burn our laundry, so now we also have a potential fire hazard. And many others are experiencing their dryers running and never turning off, sometimes the whole time they�€�ve been at work, serious scary stuff and absolutely NO help, the warranties are essentially useless. I now despise this company and the dealer.

The Speed Queen washer that we purchased at Warners Stellian, is model #AWN432SP113TWD4. Had repair person out 3 times due to water on floor after washing. Unable to determine problem. Problem continues daily, leaking water on rugs and shoes. Contacted Warners Stellian and they want their repair person coming out a 4th time. Company will not issued a new washer due to daily leaking from this Speed Queen washer.

May 2021 bought a brand new washer and dryer Speed Queen. Did a read a reviews and heard how great it is. Washer won�€�t even get a little dirt out. I washed twice and still dirty. Try so many times to called Customer Service. Cannot get a hold of no one. Only auto play of computer voice telling you to hold on. Nobody ever answer t by e called of mine. Horrible customer service. I regret buying Speed Queen! I paid $1,000 for washer alone. I just lost $1,000 down the drain! I�€�m so mad and sad. DO NOT BUY SPEED QUEEN!!! Good getting a hold of customer service!!!

I have been waiting for an element for 2 months for my dryer. Of course due to the pandemic it is on back order. I was told when asked about a replacement to contact the retailer I purchased it from. The would not send them a return authorization. When I asked for a manager the rep refused and hung up. I am spending money going to the laundromat when I have a dryer at home. I wish I could give them zero stars at this time. They don�€�t deserve not 1 star!!!!

Thought I was buying a quality product, it definitely is not! Was told it will last 25 years. Wrong! Lucky if it makes it to six. Had nothing but problems with this Speed Queen Dryer since we purchased it in 2014. The thermal fuse 4 times, the thermostat, the timer. It doesnt dry clothes. Had it fixed 3 times in the last few months. Twice within 10 days and now it isnt drying my clothes again. Sick of this piece of crap. Do not buy a Speed Queen nothing but trouble!!

I really don�€�t want to give this rating a star but I had to select at least one. My one star is under duress. This machine doesn�€�t even deserve one star. I bought a top load Speed Queen washing machine a year ago and used the �€�eco�€� setting which didn�€�t rinse the soap out of my clothes and I developed a terrible skin rash that I had to treat with **. The customer service rep at Speed Queen said the �€�eco�€� setting is to comply with government regulations and I should not use it and I should always use the �€�auto fill�€�. My clothes never were clean, in fact they became dingy. The biggest test of all was that none of my dog toys ever came out clean, they came out with the same dirt they had when I put them in the washer. I called customer service at Speed Queen 3 times to discuss the machines disappointing performance... �€�Don�€�t use eco setting�€�. �€�Small loads won�€�t get clean if there�€�s not enough clothes in them�€�. �€�The machine is designed so that the clothes rubbing against each other will clean�€�. In the end after a year of frustration I bought an Electrolux and my clothes are clean again.

Purchased a pair of coin-operated commercial washer and dryers both back in 2016 and had to return both after the washer started giving away free washes. All you had to do was press the button and it would start up again without coins. Service operators came out repeatedly until the west coast regional manager for Speed Queen came out: the mother board was even entirely replaced and still the washer would give away free wash. The dryer started out with a swishing noise with each revolution and would not stop. The entire drum was removed and replaced and the same thing repeated itself. It was rubbing somewhere but the service and SQ rep couldnt figure it out. Both machines were returned.Fast forward, November 2019 and my son buys Speed Queen washer and dryer hoping for the best. The washer fills with hot water to about 1/8 of the drum and then stops. Then the cold water fills the drum and by the time the wash starts, its not a hot wash, it is barely a warm wash. The hot water is shutting off too soon. And the dryer is doing the same thing again, it is rubbing somewhere as it makes it revolution. WHAT IS THE MATTER WITH ALLIANCE/Speed Queen products?!?! There seems to be no quality control. These are brand new machines with problems already out of the manufacturing company and theyre brand new? We are not pleased with these machines at all.

This washer was bought in November 2019 and started malfunctioning in June 2020. It refused to go to the rinse cycle. After several calls to Speed Queen they said it needed repair and recommended a repair service. After over 4 months of waiting, the motor has been replace along with a main computer board and still the machine wont work. they are coming to replace a second computer board today. thats three parts being replaced in a machine that is under a year old. Ive had washers over a decade old that never needed parts replaced. Speed queen refuses to replace the machine. Their warranty only covers repairs, not replacements. Even if its made in America its still garbage and a lemon that should never have made it to a showroom. This is what happens when sales top quality control. its the most expensive machine Ive ever owned and the absolute worst. Stick with Samsung, Whirlpool, anything other than Speed Queen. Dont believe the hype and advertising.

Speed Queen is the monster washer, it never fails, it handles large and small loads and frequent use, it is not fancy but it is sturdy and reliable and cleans in a much faster time. This washer is made for families with a lot of cleaning needs. These are the same washers that they use in car washes and laundromats, you will spend about 500 more but the machine is superior and saves you on the extended service plan.

Purchased my set 1-8-18, was told by the salesman this set is laundry mat quality and it�€�s backed by a 10 yr warranty. If it breaks Speed Queen will have a repairman in your house the next day. I said man that�€�s good, the set was pricey but I liked the warranty. Well, as usual that turned out to be horse **, the dryer went out. I called Speed Queen and was told, �€�We don�€�t fix nothing.�€� We look for somebody local to fix. Speed Queen should pay me the 3000, I have in their overpriced fake warranty that they are selling.

Prior to purchasing this Speed Queen AFNE9B-AWo1 Front Load Washing Machine we had an old LG 10kg machine and as we are in our 70s decided to pay the $3.5k so the machine would outlast us. Unfortunately lasting ability is no use if it doesnt do the job. IT DOES NOT CLEAN YOUR CLOTHES! This machine has NO lint filter so flecks of lint cover your freshly washed clothes and in the folds of the clothes there is often dirty marks which have to be rubbed off in a clean tub of water despite using the second rinse cycle on the machine. My advice is AVOID THIS MACHINE at all costs.

I think they are very good machines to use. Have used them at same washteria and were excellent in cleaning the clothes. Only once in awhile they were unreliable when were out of order!! They are dependable in getting the clothes washed and cleaned!! The machines are so quiet you dont even know that they are running until the light goes out and know that the clothes are done and ready to be put in dryer!!! The machines are so reliable and dependable that you simply cannot think of anything that will make you dislike the machines. I understand the clothes have to go in different cycles to get cleaned but you have to be patience until the machine stops!!

Bought two new speed queen dryers. Both starter buttons are defective. After time button came apart inside. Tried to repair, but came apart once again. Now have it put together with plastic wire ties.

We bought this commercial washer for our apartment complex which we manage. Within 10 days of installation the machine was smoking and flooded the basement. When we contacted customer support, they said they would come out to repair it. It has now taken 3 service trips, and 6 weeks to try and fix the machine. Our tenants have been without a washing machine for nearly 2 months now, and they still refuse to simply replace it. I am extremely dissatisfied with this washer, and believe it is a LEMON! Customer service should replace it, as this is a huge inconvenience for us - but they still refuse! We are very frustrated over here.

I was shocked to see the low ratings on this site. I breed Golden Retrievers and to put it mildly I wash dirty stuff. From muddy dog towels to poopy puppy pads. Dirty Stuff! My Speed Queen (TC5000WN) does a wonderful job on my dirtiest loads. It washes faster than my old machines, (GE & Maytag) and has an option for a larger fill. It is a workhorse, which is what I want in a washing machine. I had an LG Front Load washer and hated it! You cannot properly soak anything, and I was constantly cleaning the rubber gasket to keep it from smelling.

We bought a Speed Queen washer 4.5 years ago. We were told they can last up to 20 years. Imagine my surprise when it started leaking a week and a half ago. We had a certified tech out to look at it 3 days later. They opened it up and said it was shot and closed it back up. Apparently it had been leaking into the motor and transmission. We had no signs of water until 3 days prior to the service call. I called Speed Queen. They said only a 3 year warranty on motor but 15 year warranty in transmission. I was told that possibly parts could be sent out, but I would have to pay labor. Okay, if that�€�s what I needed to do. After several calls I received a crappy email from them on a Friday at 5 PM, saying the machine is 503 days past the warranty and no parts would be provided. Nothing about the 15 year warranty for the transmission. Their late email prevented me from obtaining a new washer at my local appliance company in a timely matter. I sent an email back saying I would file a complaint with the FTC for fraudulent claims about their product as well as my state attorney general�€�s office. We spent $900 on this and expected it to last. This is unacceptable on every level.

I purchased a Speed Queen top load washer 5/14/2018 ran 60 loads and it broke. Called Speed Queen and they said I have to get service thru the selling dealer which is 200 miles away. They have no authorized service company within 200 miles of me. Dont buy Speed Queen!

My Speed Queen washer is a replacement for a Maytag Neptune that I had for many years. I am very pleased with the performance and especially the amount of water it uses during a cycle. It gets the clothes just as clean using about 1/2 the water, very important as we have well water. It is not as pretty as the Neptune was, but thats extremely low on my list of requirements.

We purchased new washer and dryer from Speed Queen base on Old School performance recommendations. The washer seems to get overloaded when there are 2 or more pairs of jeans in the load being laundered.

Cuando mi lavadora de cinco años (Whirlpool) murió la semana pasada, le pregunté al técnico que la declaró muerta qué tipo de máquina debía comprar. Su respuesta: Speed Queen. Ni siquiera tuvo que pensarlo. Seguí su recomendación y compré una Speed Queen TC5 de carga superior. Las opciones son sencillas, pero la limpieza es eficaz. No es necesario que el panel de control de una lavadora parezca un mando de lanzamiento de cohetes. Sin embargo, hay algunos consejos para obtener el máximo rendimiento de la máquina.

Our machine is less than eight months old or machine and we have two major problems. First the inner plastic ring is falling apart. We have chunks of plastic in our clothes. Eventually the entire ring is going to break down. Our second problem is we have a internal water leak in the tub. Fortunately we have a plastic liner under the machine, otherwise our wood floors would be ruined. We are called Speed Queen twice and talk to someone by the name of Tim, who seems to have absolutely no information on anything. We had someone come out to repair the machine and we were told we should just get a new one. It�€�s in pretty bad shape. He came out again the following week and was told that he had to replace the tub the liner and and find where the leak in the tub is. Today a week later we called Speed Queen. Spoke with Tim once again to find out what the status of our parts and repair was. He knew nothing. We called the appliance repair place directly and they are trying to track our parts but they said Speed Queen sends things through some super cheap delivery service not a UPS or FedEx and it�€�s hard to even find out where the parts are since there�€�s no tracking number. Meanwhile every time I do a load of wash there�€�s white chunks of plastic in my clothes. Oh and I forgot to add the machine makes these horrible clanking noise as well. That�€�s important. Anyway I thousand dollars for this machine what a joke customer service from Speed Queen. Disgusting. Do not buy this machine or actually anything from Speed Queen.

In April 2021 I bought the top model dryer of Speed Queen to match our new washing machine. I immediately had issues with the dryer taking too long to dry the clothes on lower settings or burning and melting the clothes on the regular and permanent press setting. The technician came out to look at it and said it is a common problem due to how the dryer heats up and the stainless steal vent in the back that get extremely hot so when your clothes brush against it it burns or melts the fabric and leaves an imprint of that vent or black marks on your items. It ruined a new set of sheets, several shirts and a couple of blankets. So my options are to dry clothes on delicate and take twice as long. So disappointed. This was an expensive dryer and the company does not back it up. I would think they would recognize this problem and come up with a solution. Or let me return it.

We purchased the TR5003WN washer and dryer only seven months ago and the washer has already broken down three times and the dryer has also broken down. To make matters worse, the parts they need to fix these machines are on back order indefinitely so we are just without the use of a washer and dryer even though we are under warranty. Speed Queen via their retail partner has been non-responsive in helping to fix these ongoing issues. This is the worst buying experience, don�€�t go with speed queen.

I used Speed Queen at a laundromat, and they are amazing! You can get more into your loads without worry. You know all of your clothes will come out clean. Sometimes I go to the laundromat to use their machines for my bedding. With the ones I have used it was nice to have a presoak option. Plus I like the high speed cycle of removing water. You dont have to worry about your clothes being so heavy with water when you go to dry. However, the ones at the laundromat take forever because of the presoak cycle. It would be nice if it went a tad faster and it would be cool if it cleaned itself out after every use LOL!

I had a Speed Queen for many years and I was very happy with its performance. It didnt spin too long like some washers do but it still spun out good. It lasted a good many years without any problems. My Speed Queen washer had just one feature that I really liked and that was the permanent press feature so clothes wouldnt wrinkle. Best as I can tell it would wash in warm and rinse in cold or something to that effect. Its transmission worked fine the entire time I had it.

In the 2 weeks we have had the front-loader (AFN50RSP113TW01), it has ruined 10 pieces of clothing. It is gentle but doesnt get out the stains produced by our 2 boys. Our previous washer from a big-box store lasted only 8 years, but at least it cleaned the clothes. Now were stuck with this well-built but poor performer for a very long time. The customer service personnel at Speed Queen were very nice, but very disappointed that the company wont replace the machine with a better model at this price point.

I �€�inherited�€� the Speed Queen dryer with the bed and breakfast business I bought 9 months ago. It�€�s commercial grade, heavy duty. It drives me to distraction! Despite buttoning up the duvet covers (I live in Australia) things still manage to get caught up inside and from time to time, the duvet cover even manages to get turned inside out, as do the pillow cases. How on earth can this happen??? And then there are the many, many times the sheets get twisted up like corkscrews. How can that happen?? I�€�ve had many dryers in my lifetime, none as expensive as this one, but every single one of them was 100% better than the Speed Queen. I HATE IT! Do not buy one! Rosie **, Australia.

When washing Speed Queen does an amazing job. Its super fast and has multiple settings for washing. The dryer dries fast and doesnt take a long time to dry. Its just a little too expensive for my taste. This washer and dryer have amazing settings and multiple settings when it comes to washing and drying. One of the favorite things about it is the length of time it takes to dry. The cost of the Speed Queen washer and dryer is on the more expensive side for me. It does a good job but I could find something cheaper that could do the same job just less money.

Bought a Speed Queen washer at Tasco Brampton in 2018 and its broken down 3 times. Under warranty repairs take at least 3 days for the repair technician to contact me and then over a week to actually attempt to repair. Will never deal with tasco or speed queen ever again.

I call myself being smart being buying true iconic American brand washer and dryer set, and to my surprise, my 15 year old Roper I got on Craigslist for $75 out washed this almost $3,000 stainless steel washer. What I immediately noticed that all my clothes were coming out this front loader smelling like Tide pods, after a complete wash cycle. This machine doesnt wash clothes, because it doesnt tumble in enough water. Im a truck driver and travel the country on a regular, and ran across a similar machine at a Flying J, it did the same thing. So I complained and demanded my money back because this machine left my clothes smelling worse, prior to washing. And I was told that the government had decided on how much water is needed to wash your clothes, which is at least two gallons short, therefore, no I find my myself using a extra rinse cycle, which extends my cycle to an hour, just to remove the smell of tide. I tried contacting the manufacturer to figure out some kinda hack to add more water, and was basically told by these people, good luck with that. Ok let get this straight, I paid nearly $6,000 for this washer/dryer combo, and I kid you not, my hundred year old Roper will clean ten times better, and I paid less than $100 bucks, used, over 15 years ago. This doesnt make any sense.

I purchased a TC% washer in October 2019. A couple of weeks ago the machine smoked and had a burnt wire smell. Then the machines drum would not turn. Authorized technicians came out a found a broken belt which they say appeared dry rotted. Replaced the belt and left. 1st load after that the machine would not drain. Techs came back next day and replaced the pump, After replacing the pump I had them try to run a load and the machine would not fill with water. After consulting with Speed Queen authorized techs they then discovered the transmission was locked up and the control board was malfunctioning. Replacing all these parts on a machine that is less than 6 months old is not acceptable, Speed queen needs to replace the machine. Their tech department then tells me I need to go back to the distributor to see what they will do?? Why is that my job? The distributor tells me they cannot do anything unless Speed Queen authorizes them, leaving me in the middle. The machine is junk and the customer service is unacceptable as well.

I find when using the washer it is extremely noisy. My worst complaint is that even using (1) king size sheet (not the full set) to wash, it comes out in a tied up knot. Its put in loosely. Its really bad if I put in the full set. What in the world is the agitator doing?

My Speed Queen washing machine works great! My clothes come out much cleaner than with the last two washers I used. The Speed Queen dryer is fine. I wish it had a moisture sensor to prevent me from over drying my clothes. They could really use a styling makeover for those people who care about the appearance of their washer/dryer.

I used a Speed Queen triple load washer at the laundromat. I think they work well and takes about 25 minutes to wash everything. I like the size of it. I can fit a lot of clothes in the triple size washing machine, and it seems like it holds a good amount of clothes. I try to put as much stuff as possible in there so I dont have to pay as much money. But when its full it doesnt seem to want to wash all the clothes.

I purchased a 2018 Speed Queen washer in Sept of 2018. It was delivered mid October. I have not had a single load of clean clothing since. It has had problem after problem, and the repairman has been out four times in the last month alone. The washer fills with water, but doesnt agitate half of the time. When a load is finished, the soap and scent booster is still on the top of the clothing. We have been working without dealer, and Speed Queen, but so far all I have had is disappointment. I do believe they desire to help, but they have no idea why the machine isnt working, and would rather replace parts weekly than replace the machine. Never again!

Very first use of this dryer with only a light, partial load, and either the belt or the pulley broke! Actually, for the record, not VERY first use, as I tried it briefly after installing it with no load just to make sure all was well. It survived that initial test, but not with clothes in it. Very disappointed. The seller is going to make it good, but thats besides the point. For $950 I expect a product to actually work.

I can choose the amount of water I need for the size of laundry I�€�m washing. It cleans a very large or a small delicate load equally! It is quiet and very user friendly. And best of all, it�€�s faster than the average washer even when I use the twice rinse cycle.

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. Purchased in October of 2019. From the very beginning there has been an undetermined leak. It appears that when in the spin cycle and the load is not balanced, but that is just my uneducated guess. A service rep has not been able to replicate the leak. I cannot use a spin cycle other than low spin. So much for warranty - the place of business where it was purchased (Dr. Appliance in Delmar, IA) has washed their hands and told me to deal directly with Speed Queen. That is a JOKE. Speed Queen has done NOTHING to resolve the issue - so much for the 10-year warranty! Now the Washing Machine wont even turn on. And by the way, most dealerships who service Speed Queen Appliances wont ever service if it was not purchased by them.

We LOVE our Speed Queen TR7 washer and dryer system. Dont be misled by negative reactions based on how it washes. This washer does not drag expensive clothing through the washer like machines of the past. Rather, it moves the water at high speed around the tub and through the garments. The end result is the best wash AND gentler on clothing. Weve had fantastic results. Heavily soiled clothes from yard work and gardening came out beautifully.The machine is very sophisticated with so many options for wash settings. Im enjoying the process of discovering how to wash different clothing in the best manner possible - which this machine does. Theres an extended soak option available along with a pre-wash cycle. You can even delay start the machine so that the washer sleeps until you want it to start. This allows for the ability to have the wash finish just as you arrive home which in turn eliminates standing wet clothing. Then just toss the clothes immediately in the dryer and the wash is done! (Not leaving the clothes in the dryer after they dry helps greatly reduce wrinkling.) Thorough cleaning PLUS preserving expensive clothing makes this the best washing system available.

Agitator is too slow - doesnt clean clothes. Not enough depth on the fins on agitator to move back and forth either. Spin cycle is too slow - some clothes are dripping wet and other clothes are too wet to put in dryer. I thought with a tall agitator, it would move back and forth quickly to actually get a clean wash. Some of my clothes have residue left.

I have had several washing machines and dryers in my life. I bought a Speed Queen washer and dryer last month thru recommendation of my appliance repair man. He told me if people would buy them they would never go back, he said I would get at least 20 years out of them. Thank goodness for him. I got the top load commercial and it is wonderful. You can actually adjust from mini loads to extra large loads. It takes 30 minutes to wash a normal soil load of clothes instead of the 116 minutes on the other. The clothes are much cleaner. The energy and water savings are great. You can have any appliance in my house. Just dont take my Speed Queens.

Updated on 11/05/2020: Three years ago I wrote a comment on this review page about my experience with Speed Queen washers. At that time my Speed Queen was 28 years old and had never had a repair. Its 31 years old now and is still working beautifully. No repairs yet. Id purchased it new in 1989 after having such a good experience with my previous machine which lasted seventeen years of heavy use and was god-knows-how-old when I paid $30.00 for it. I have no idea how good new Speed Queen machines are but Im certainly able to vouch for the older models.Original Review: I checked this site to see if the newer model Speed Queens are as good as the old ones. Kind of mixed reviews here so Im not sure what to think. Im not really in the market for a new washing machine -- the one I have now is absolutely fine and has never had a repair -- but you never know whats in the future. My current machine is 28 years old. My kids are out of the house now so it isnt used daily anymore but I still run it four times a week. Since they took phosphates out of laundry detergent I do notice a lower level of cleaning, but thats certainly not my washing machines fault. My previous machine was also a Speed Queen. I bought it used from a neighbor -- had no idea of its age -- and it ran seventeen years. And I was doing multiple loads in those days! So are the new ones as good? I doubt it. Hope I dont have to find out for a while!

I had this same washer before they redesigned it and it was the best washer I had ever had, LOVED it! But the redesigned washer is awful. I hate to say that, but it is true. I have had it less than a year and the spin cycle doesnt work. Nor does it clean clothes! It may be easier on clothes, but who cares if they are dirty. It doesnt spin the water out and clothes have to be dried twice. How is this easier on them? I wish they would bring back the old washer! Since my expensive Speed Queen has been a total disappoint, I have purchased a new washer with no computer parts and an agitator that isnt just for looks!

Until now, I had been happy with my Speed Queen Washer. It is simple to use and does an okay job cleaning my clothes. However, after just three years of use, one of the plastic arms on the agitator inside the tub broke off after washing three pairs of jeans and a handful of shirts. Upon closer examination, I noticed that the plastic used for the arms is rather thin and flimsy, certainly not the heavy duty commercial quality that I paid a premium price for. I called Speed Queen and was told that the part wasnt under warranty which rather surprised me. So buyer beware.

Updated on 10/06/2020: Hello, this is an update to my first review, July 2020, after three washers in a week, (all had a loose control panel) then told by manufacturer to schedule a repair date (for the new washer), this is the rest of the story, to quote Paul **... so in addition to the control panel being loose, the tub was always tilted and setting off the switches for unbalanced load. As I mentioned in the first review, I will be wondering what else will go wrong...turns out the tub was always tilted because the wrong type of springs were installed when built (green v.s. blue, if that helps anyone). They have been replaced. So the new machine was delivered july-23-2020 and finally fixed on sept 5, 2020.... or until something happens for being poorly assembled / built.Original Review: I purchased a Speed Queen washing machine, tr5003wn, a month ago. There was a 3 week back-log for delivery. In the past week, I have had 3 of these machines. On the first one delivered, the control board, the part with all the knobs was very loose and wiggled. I called the appliance company, they sent a replacement 4 days later, out of the box, the second one, same problem, I said take it back. The 3rd one, delivered today, July 28, 2020, has the same issue but not as severe, so I kept it. I called speed queen, they said call for a repair, but I will need to register it online first, then schedule a repair. I was told that management will be informed and call the factory. My concern is, what else was not screwed/bolted together properly? Now left wondering what else will go wrong? A leak, a loose wire to cause a fire or blow a fuse? Whats the point of buying made in America, when built like, made in China, ggrrrrrr. There was nothing wrong with the way machines were built 20 years ago. I miss my old Fisher & Paykel, but now they are owned by China. I realize companies had a down-time due to covid, and companies are trying to build things so fast and get them out the door for a back log of orders, someone forgot to tighten down the screws? I purchased this brand based on reading a lot of reviews, hoping to get machine that will last many years, now I will just wonder/worry, for how many years, when will something go wrong with this machine. :-(

Since day one the speed queen has had issues. Lately it stops all lights flashing. Takes repairman a week then another week for parts. Wash one load without issue then it start yet again. The lid lock was said to be issue last time but clearly has more issues. Big mistake purchase.

I love Speed Queen. I like all the features. They have advanced in the technology of the world today. They are one of the oldest and new brands of all times. I can wash any size load and the washer and dryer adjust itself to whatever capacity that I have in them. I can never over load or under load using this brand. They have come a long way. I love the fact that it seems like it knows the level of clean that I require. My kids and husband used these items and they are very please each and every time they use it.

We purchased a new washer and dryer set from Albees appliances in Los Angeles in October of 2018. We have had Speed Queens throughout the years with little issue. Sadly, both the manufacturer and seller no longer stand by their product, 5 months after purchase the washer is not working, they will cover parts, not labor.

Our 4 year old Maytag was needing repairs and the repair was about 2/3 the cost of the machine. I did research to find the best reviews for a good quality washer. Speed Queen seemed to have good reviews. I paid the higher cost to get a quality washer. It is less than 5 years and we are having to pay repair bills on this Speed Queen washer. There is no difference in the quality of this machine. It has not lasted any longer than a regular brand washer. Dont waste your money, get the cheaper brand.

Bought a Speed Queen TR7000 top loading washer in Feb 2020, just before the Covid shutdown. After being handed a line about the durability of these washers, little over year later, its not fully draining and leaking. Id give them zero stars if I could.

Bought this piece of crap washer in August 2018. Since then I have had service on it 7 times and 2 complete drum and all the inside of tub replaced. Called Speed Queen and they said it was the technicians fault that it was not working right. So they sent another tub and tech replaced that too. This machine sounds like a jet airplane is taking off and you better have headphones when you do the wash. Why bother washing. Youre better off just wearing your clothes inside out as they would be cleaner than what this piece of $1000 crap would get it. Customer service specifically John in residential washers got his feelings hurt when I expressed my animus to him. He acted like a baby and threatened to hang up if I wasnt nice to him. I asked him to call Speedy Appliance and call me back when he did. I was told they had to get approval to call me back from his boss. My comment to him at Alliance was to ask him if he needed permission to use the phone. Please please DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT. I feel like throwing it on the highway with a huge sign of do not buy Speed Queen so everyone on the highway can see what a terrible product this is and let them know that Alliance who owns Speed Queen is a consumer nightmare. It appears that our dealer washed his hands of this situation. Why are they still in business if they cannot stand behind their product.

Wish I had not bought- washer foams out the drain every time- no, I am not using too much soap, no I am not using th wrong kind of soap (tried HE and regular in very small amounts), plumbing is not clogged, no issue with old Maytag for years... Also, you need an instruction guide to understand settings- seems like they just chose random words... Hey SpeedQueen- how about small medium large and cold warm hot... I know you are trying to get around Gov. efficiency standards, but whoever you pay to design these controls should be fired- Its not that difficult people.. Im sure it is made with more metal parts than most washers, but whats the point if it doesnt work? What a mess and a waste of $1,000.

Bought above S Queen washer and dryer almost five years at the strong suggestion of the appliance store owner here in Tucson. AZ. Almost five years later we are in the midst of renovation from water damage in the walls in our utility room, kitchen, guest bedroom. How long has the washer been spewing suds out of the washer drain? No answer, quiet and continual lethal damage sums it up.Three plumbers verify our house plumbing is A OK! Speed Queen appliance service manager and general manager defend the washer; problem is not the washer they say. One month of chaos from an overflowing drain pipe and still torn up. I hope other Speed Queen owners never experience this situation caused by �€�a top model washing machine�€�

After doing much research I wanted a modern somewhat efficient washing machine but with better build quality and durability than the big box stores. I love the fact that the new washing action is easier on my clothes. Some people are having a hard time with that, but this is the future. Sure the washing machines in the 70s lasted forever BUT they beat up clothes, cleaned yes, but beat up in the process. I also like the fact that they removed the transmission, one less failure point in the future. This is also the most quiet washing machine Ive ever experienced. Looking forward to getting many years of service from this unit.

There were SQ washer in a laundromat I visited regularly, plus I owned one-inexpensive to buy. My 3.42 cubic feet washer AWNE92SP113 is dependable, no nonsense and gets the clothes clean. It comes in white which reminds me of clean laundry. It wasnt heavy like some and was easy to move when I moved from an apartment to a house. It also has top loading, two rinse cycles, I could select the water temperature and the agitator strength. I also liked the cycle only took about 20 minutes. The one I had didnt used a timer and I wish it did. I would add a mini-basket. It wastes water when you have a smaller load than the washers select small load. Make sure each Speed Queen washer has a timer.

I bought a Speed Queen washer fall 2020 based on its stellar reputation. I was sorely mistaken. I�€�ve had the tide pods not devolve and clothes come out with dirt still on them�€�-dirt �€�like something as simple as milk that should have easily washed out. Someone on these reviews correctly called the wash cycle a �€�soothing bath.�€� The drum does not agitate. Often the clothes are weakly spun and too wet for the dryer. The lid lock is a complete nuisance. They put that on there so you can�€�t see how feeble the agitation cycle is! The plastic bleach dispenser discolored after 1 month of use. The cycles are awful and LONG, which wouldn�€�t be bad if it were doing something. I have to agree with Every one-star review on here�€�HEED THE WARNING! The machine makes doing laundry an even worse task than it is. SHAME ON YOU SPEED QUEEN...SHAME SHAME SHAME...OR SHAM SHAM SHAM!

Moved to new home 4 years ago & bought very expensive SQ commercial-grade washer/dryer set as advertised, #1 recommended in the nation. Thought it would be more durable & last longer. Salesperson said true. Washer literally destroys clothes! Chews material�€�shreds towels, rips seams, trashes underwear, rips out zippers. So much lint removed from items at each washing that lint trap cannot hold it all. And that continues for months, after every washing! No towel in the house has lasted more than 3 months (good-quality towels!)! They look 25 years old!Worse, this model has no �€�balancer!�€� Clothes go out of balance constantly & washer makes a horrible, loud pounding sound & hops 6�€� across the floor! Called recommended repair service & he said nothing he can do! He cannot add one, either. Shortly after we bought this model, the company must have gotten so many complaints, they supposedly added a balancer, but that does nothing to help us. Finally, the controls on both units are annoying beyond words. You set water temp, and the unit changes the load size on its own; or you set load size, and the temperature changes. Have to keep pushing same buttons repeatedly to get them to finally �€�stick�€� where you want them! Same with dryer�€�.very confusing on how to get it to just dry. It�€�s like trying to operate it in a foreign language! Bottom line: this set is a disaster from start to finish! Save your money: do not buy!

Purchased the new 2018 TR7 Speed Queen Top Load Washing Machine after reading rave reviews on the Speed Queen washers. Unfortunately, Speed Queen changed the agitation mechanics of the 2018 models and this machine does a terrible job of washing clothes. It does not remove dirt or stains no matter what cycle you run it on. Ive tried everything to get my clothes clean and bright but after 2 1/2 months of trying, I gave up. The local dealer told me I had to get resolution with Speed Queen. Speed Queen told me I had to get resolution with the local Dealer. I sent pictures, made phone calls to SQ and the dealer, multiple trips to the dealer, comments on SQ Facebook and website etc. Working with the local dealer didnt get me any suitable resolution until I suggested that I would call the BBB and local TV station. Finally, SQ and the dealer got together and they decided to give me a full refund and take back the machine. Warning to anyone planning to buy the 2018 Models of Speed Queen...buy something else.

The Speed Queen was an excellent machine. I never had any problem with it and it cleaned the clothes completely. I liked that it had different levels to choose from. From light to heavy duty. My beddings were cleaned safely. The dryer worked well and dried my clothes quickly which was great for me. I always like to finish with my laundry as fast as possible. I was completely satisfy. The clothes came out great, not too much wrinkles. The dryer did its job and would consider using it again in the future or even buying one for my personal use. For what I needed the Speed Queen delivered. All and all great features.

I bought a stackable Speed Queen after reading about the reliability and longevity of the machines. I had read that they are workhorses and well built. Unfortunately, they are not that well designed and it is a daily frustration when I use mine. First of all, the upper dryer door is not round, it is flat at the bottom. This seems like it is a trivial detail, but because of the shape of the door opening, it is about 2-3 inches higher that I need to reach in the grab the dry clothes and for me at 51 that is the difference between being able to reach the back of the machine or not. Presumably this was done to have a straight edged lint catcher, but that is a foolish compromise.The lint catcher brings me to my next complaint. You cannot remove the lint catcher without unscrewing it! To remove the lint, you just need to swipe your hand and grab the lint - no big deal, BUT if you want to clean it properly with a brush every so often, like I do, you cannot. Most people may not clean the lint catcher and the exhaust tube from there, but I always have and I can see that there is plenty of dust that gets through the catcher and is in the tubing beyond where I can reach without breaking out my screwdriver. That is a fire hazard and a ridiculous inconvenience to the average homemaker, housecleaner or working mother.Next issue is the soap dispenser. It is so poorly designed that unless you close the dispenser immediately it leaks down the front of the machine and not only that, it tracks to yet another spot where it is difficult to reach and clean! When I take my soap dispenser out to clean, about every two weeks, the inside of the space where it fits also has dried liquid detergent in the corners and edges. This is poor design, it is not because I am using too much detergent - I am not. The lower panel at the bottom of the machine also needs to be cleaned/serviced, according to the manual every 6 months. Well this is also a major pain in the neck requiring the machines to be pulled out from their built in cabinetry positions and a couple of hex screws to be undone. Really? Couldnt they make it so the access was all from the front?As for their functionality - it is fine. They are pretty quiet machines, they do the job, though I dont believe the auto-sensor works for dryness, and they certainly havent broken, though I have only been using them for 1 year. Leaving the washing machine door open after using it has prevented any bad odors, BUT the glass insert in the door accumulates a weird soapy grime that requires a scrubby sponge to clean each week. I use the same regular eco-safe detergent (Persil) I used in my previous machine and never had that problem, which makes me believe it is the shape of the glass design. Of course also, these are a bit smaller than many of the big machines out there, but that is well stated in their literature and was no surprise. Realistically, you cannot do two sets of sheets in one load though. The machine is just stuffed then and the dryer takes forever to dry if it is that full. This is an issue if you have a cleaning lady coming to do all the sheets in one day. It will take forever. Luckily, we just change our sheets on different days, but I no longer have a house full of kids - If I did - this would NOT be family functional washing machine and dryer

Purchased our Speed Queen top load washing machine based on reviews and the excellent recommendation from our expert neighborhood appliance store. This has been the worst purchase. I agree with the other reviews. Great - wash cycle is only 30 minutes but the clothes are not clean which is unacceptable. I have been left with smelly kids clothing, stains and loads. I couldnt tell have even been through a wash cycle, plus it�€�s noisy. There are even times when globs of the detergent have been left on the clothing. Not sure about the previous history of Speed Queen (which apparently was great at one time) as some have mentioned a contrast between older and newer versions. Our old front load Maytag cleaned just fine. Wouldn�€�t recommend but if you insist, you can buy mine (humor).

Bought it yesterday at the largest hardware stores in Ohio... Hartville Hardware, after our front loader developed a motor board problem and didnt want to put any more $$ into it... Picked it up and dropped off our old one - nice to not have to worry about getting rid of it!!! Installation was easy - hose gaskets included - mesh screen for the inlet and standard for the machine attachment... no leaks - thats rare for me!!! Seven loads - various sizes - all washed very well - stains out (we have a 10 year-old so we do Spray-N-wash - have since she was 1... LOL) several pair of jeans along with towels in a load - no problem... Bought it on the recommendation of the service tech who was looking at the front loader... After reading all the comments on here - will give an update in six months... Thanks to all of you for your comments!!!!

Our Maytag dryer died & they could no longer get a circuit board for it. It was the 2nd time in 5 years to need service. We had the top of a line Maytag washer & dryer. I asked the repairperson what brand he would recommend & he stated SPEED QUEEN. He said they cost more but are very well built. They are the same ones in laundromats. I read the reviews & found the TC5 model. This is an old school, simple controls & will last 20 years washing machine. We bought the set - Washer & Dryer. The appliance person mentioned they are hard to keep in stock because of their reputation.
