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.

I had these appliances when my family was young (in diapers through grade school), and found them to be reliable and dependable. They were purchased more than 30 years ago in Columbus, NE and I chose them because the laundromat had that brand. I remember there was an extra prewash cycle that worked well for doing cloth diapers. I really liked the prewash cycle for rinsing diapers before doing their regular wash cycle. Alas! Few people use cloth diapers anymore! Then, as my sons got older, and into sports, I found the prewash cycle handy for tough, messy dirt and spills on their clothes. But when we moved to Sheboygan WI, we decided we would buy new appliances rather than move the ones that were over eight years old. The store in Sheboygan did not carry the Speed Queen brand.

I bought the Speed Queen for several reasons, their reputation, it was made
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.

Prior to purchasing this Speed Queen AFNE9B-AWo1 Front Load Washing Machine
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 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.

I purchased a new Speed Queen Commercial Top Load washer and front load dry
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.

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 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.

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.

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 above S Queen washer and dryer almost five years at the strong sugge
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”

I really like my Speed Queen. I had a new LG front loader before. My clothes just kept getting dingier and dingier. But when I switched to speed Queen they were so much cleaner. It has all the settings you could want. From gentle cycle to permanent press to regular. You just can't beat the good old agitator.

Purchased a Speed Queen washer & dryer from Gerrits Appliance in Grand
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 Maytag dryer died & they could no longer get a circuit board for it
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.

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!

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 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.

I made a HUGE mistake not taking my Whirlpool W/D set to my new house. I had heard so many wonderful reviews about Speed Queen - workhorse, great warranties, etc. Now Im stuck with a horrible washer and disgusting mildew smell. I contacted the dealer - the mildew problem is not covered by the warranty. They suggested I contact Speed Queen directly which I did but never received a response. Ive tried everything - vinegar/baking soda, Affresh, always leaving the washer door wide open - nothing works. Twenty years ago I purchased the first front load washer Maytag made. It had the same mildew problem and Maytag contacted me ahead of me contacting them! The problem was fixed at NO CHARGE. My opinion - dont buy Speed Queen.

Spent a lot of time researching a new gas dryer as I discovered that Samsun
Spent a lot of time researching a new gas dryer as I discovered that Samsung & LG are not considered great buys with the service calls that ensue. As a previous Samsung owner I was particularly concerned about quality. Found that Speed Queen had a pretty good reputation, was made in the US (Wisconsin) & had options of 3, 5 or 7 year warranties depending on the model. Chose the 7 year model & was very excited to try my new dryer. It stopped working on day 1. The sensor settings would not work. Called for service & was referred to one of their service companies, they came & assessed the dryer, it needed 4 parts, a board, a thermostat & two sensors. I was told the dryer would work just fine on regular settings until the parts came in. That was not true. A week later it stopped working on any setting. Called the servicer & Speed Queen, another service call, another part, the ignitor was bad. Here is the part that is truly sad. Speed Queen customer service has still not managed to get a manager from their company to give me a call. They are rude, absolutely indifferent to how poorly this looks for their brand. I see no pride in their company name & no effort to attempt to make a customer happy. Its like you are bothering them. I can accept defects, indifference is not acceptable on a 2 day old dryer regardless of the warranty. They could not even be bothered to get the correct parts to the repair team. Im truly disappointed & disgusted at their customer service teams attitude & their management teams inability to actually manage. If you manage by hiding behind your customer service team, you should not be a manager.

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.

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.

We have owned expensive LG front load and numerous top load washers and dry
We have owned expensive LG front load and numerous top load washers and dryers over the years. I read several negative reviews of the 2018 Speed Queen washers and dryers, following its redesign. Made in America means a lot to me, this along with the 5-year parts and labor warranty is the reason we decided to pay up for the Speed Queen 5000 series washer and dryer and give them a try. We decided to purchase this model because it has 6 cleaning cycles and easy to use knobs vs. the push button control board. We are very pleased with the performance of our new appliances. The washer is quiet, and exceeded our expectations in cleaning our clothes. Every load has came out clean and smells nice. I believe this is the result of adequate water usage and Speed Queens design to push water along with the cleaning agent through the cloths. The only con I see with the washer is it has a safety lock while in use that requires you to pause the cycle to add items to your wash. The dryer is efficient, my clothes are usually dry in 35 minutes.

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 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.

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.

We had a Kenmore washer for over 25 years, but had to leave it in the house
We had a Kenmore washer for over 25 years, but had to leave it in the house when we moved. I decided to upgrade to a Speed Queen when replacing the Kenmore. Because I wanted a top-load machine without a computer and many settings, I decided upon the TR3...and am every so disappointed. One problem with this machine is that clothes do not come out clean (too little agitation?), so every little spot or mark or stain must be hand-scrubbed before being put into the washer. A second problem is the minimal number of settings. If the load of clothes seem to need an additional spin, they must go through the entire wash cycle first. There is no way to select just one portion of the cycle. It is all or nothing. I had not noted this feature of the machine before purchasing. I am so very sorry that I spent that amount of money to be so very disappointed. Will be replacing this washer soon with something other than a Speed Queen.

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!

After being told by several washer repair personnel, and being told by the appliance salesman, that if I wanted to buy the best available washer, even though it was much more expensive, to buy the Speed Queen that they had on display. (Model AWN43RSN115TW01 from Edwards Appliance in Depew, NY). Delivery was made exactly on time and after the installation was completed, the delivery man said load her up and enjoy your new washer. The first several loads were, I would say, average loads, but eventually I loaded her up with a large load of colored clothes. Washing process worked well and the tub drained for the most part but would not spin. Even after removing some of the wet clothes, there is still no spin cycle. I will contact Edwards, (whom I am not blaming for the problem) to send out a repairman. In my opinion, THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING TO A TOP-RATED, EXPENSIVE WASHER IN THE FIRST MONTH OF USE. I would caution anyone considering this Speed Queen washer. I will gladly change my rating if this situation improves.

My family is very active. My daughter rides horses and works in a barn so we have a lot of very dirty, smelly laundry, including horse blankets and saddle pads. When my Maytag broke I went to a small local store that had several brands of appliances for sale. I told the salesman our situation and said I did not want anything fancy, I just wanted a "workhorse" of a washer and dryer. He recommended Speed Queen.

My wife & I had a top-load Sears Kenmore (manf. Whirlpool) Heavy Duty Series 60 washer we bought (along with the dryer) 2nd hand & used for 20+yrs, along the way replacing agitator dogs & 2 lid switches, and a couple of other things I can't even remember, keeping it going long after many would've given up & tossed it. Finally, sometime in 2017, it got to where it would cycle fully on only 1 of the main switch settings, so I had to decide whether to chance buying a new main switch at roughly $140 & installing it correctly, or take the plunge & get a new washer entirely.

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.

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.

I like the timer on the Speed Queen because it lets you know how long you have left until you have to deal with your laundry. I also like the large size of the machines especially when you go to wash blankets and comforters. But, I hated my washer, nothing came clean and the dryer never dries everything. The only place I have ever used one of these was at the laundromat so it might have been bad up keep on the machine. I would make it that it washed better and maybe increase the heat in the dryers so they dry better. I would also move the area that you add the detergent. It is always on the top and really hard for someone who is not tall to reach it.

Because it never waste solved but after warming up it would stop. Now six months after warranty is out the timer won’t turn off the dryer. It ran for four hours before I realized it. Lakeview Service came out on the washer problem was very rude and abrupt. Do not use them. He wanted to charge me a service call charge. The washer was a yr old and Speed Queen advised me to call them. I am a married 70 yr old only user of this machine and so very disappointed in this Product. Buyer Beware.

Purchased a pair of coin-operated commercial washer and dryers both back in
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.

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.

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.

After one year I had to wash my clothes by hand. The Speed Queen model AFNE9BSP116TW13 totally stopped working. It took almost 2 months to get a service person to repair it. Then to add insult to injury the Alliance customer service Chat was a total joke, no response even though I was number 1 and so was trying to get through on their phone number. I hung up after 25 minutes. I need moving bolts and cannot find anywhere to get them. It puts me at risk for totally damaging the machine in my upcoming move. The dealer lied to me about it being a 10 year warrantee. When the machine broke down I opened up the sealed package (no manual) and it said 5 years. The dealer denied he ever claimed it was a 10 year warrantee. What a racket.

On top of lousy functioning, the top of the top loading washer is warped. The manufacturer says they make them that way on purpose. WTF For???? GIVE ME A BREAK - BUILT WITH A WARPED TOP???

We researched on Consumer Reports, as well as online, to find the best washing machine for our needs - top loader agitator, gentle on clothes, extra spin, easy to use. The Speed Queen TR5 seemed to fit the bill. It comes at a hefty price tag but the 10-year warranty, along with a built-in surge protector was very appealing. Purchased it 11/2019.PROS: if you want a user friendly machine without a bunch of digital malarky, this is it. If you prefer an old-fashioned, simple look, this is it. If you need a top-loader agitator that wont chew up your clothes, consider the TR5. If you like a 45-minute cycle, youve got it. If HE is important, its here. If all you need is small, medium, large loads, check it out. Is a great warranty, excellent reliability and made in the USA important? Speed Queen provides. CONS: if you want to throw in those extra socks, the lid lock does not make it easy. You need to pause the machine, wait for the click, toss in extra item/close and press start again. I was told it was only locked during the spin cycle but thats not true.Speaking of spin cycle, the TR5 doesnt spin strong enough, so I have to do an extra spin (no matter if perm press or heavy duty) and even then, it still feels wetter than my previous GE washer. And the slow agitation is good for the clothes but perhaps not so great in cleaning. Thank god were not miners. The machine is a little noisy.CR did not rank the Speed Queen well (it tested the TR7) and normally I would not even consider anything with such a low score but it gave very high scores in nearly everything except cleaning..and so many other washers had at least something that wasnt rated well. So...our previous GE was a much better washer all-in-all and if I was to grade our Speed Queen TR5 today, it would be a C+.

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.

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.

Quiet running, cleans well, runs an average load in about 30 minutes. Spin is especially effective, resulting in shorter drying times as compared to our old Whirlpool. It has an upright agitator, a feature we wanted. Since Speed Queen has done away with the transmission, the agitator is fixed and the drum moves to swirl the clothes thru the water. It runs with a gentle whooshing sound instead of the old thrashing sound. So far, it has worked well. Our machine has analog controls, not the digital control panel. All the controls are marked understandably and are easy to use. My wife likes the delicate and hand wash cycles, something our old machine did not have.

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!

Purchased a matched set Speed Queen washer/dryer in June of 2013. We experienced burning smells from the dryer from day one, but really didnt think much of it. Finally, in September of 2017, the smell got really bad so we called the repairman. When he opened it up, he couldnt believe the mess he saw inside. The machine had bad connectors from day one and they had finally gotten to the point where they burned so badly inside, they almost started a fire. The repairman said it was a manufacturer defect and to contact the company. We did, and they did nothing. They didnt even apologize that they almost burned our house down. Considering I frequently run the dryer during the night, a fire could have easily started while we were sleeping. I am stunned by the lack of customer service and am afraid to continue using the unit. The washing machine has made a noise from day one, as well, but the repairman cannot figure out where its coming from. I am so upset that all my long research to find the best, longest lasting machines still turned up junk.

Speed Queen was front loading and very modern looking, and worked very well. My clothes were very clean and soft. I liked it but it had a lot of different settings which I didnt understand. But for someone who cares it would be a dream to use. I wish it had a just wash the stuff mode. For someone who doesnt get too involved, it would be very confusing to use. Otherwise everything was great.

This is the second set of Speed Queen Washer/Dryer that we have purchased. (We sold our house and left the set for the new buyers.) Speed Queen is made in the USA of high quality steel and lasting products. It is the brand they have used in laundromats for years for their lasting durability. It doesn't have a lot of bells and whistles. It is a top loader washer and a front bottom dryer. I have never had any problems with smells, not drying, washing etc. They do cost more, but they are well worth it. I WOULDN'T BUY ANYTHING ELSE BY SPEED QUEEN!!!

I recently was given an almost new Speed Queen electric dryer that was discarded due to a problem that was going to cost over $400 to repair. The problem was definitely a factory defect. The problem involved the factory leaving a component out when it was assembled. This model ADEE8RGS173TW01 was repaired by me using new parts and now works properly... I have an older Speed Queen washer and gas dryer in my house and they work great but this factory defect situation on an almost new unit makes me wonder if the factory has the proper QC in place to make sure new units will indeed last a long time. I work on washers and dryers daily and I have seen the good, the bad, and the ugly. Hope they correct this type of problem...

Bought a Speed Queen washer in 2013. Just recently started making noise. Called in repairman who found that a bolt had broken causing other damage to the tune of $800. Contacted Speed Queen, and Andrea in Customer Support said sorry, out of warranty, nothing we can do. So, when their website claims they can last for 25 years, Im not sure I believe that. I would think a good quality bolt would last a long time.

After buying washers from big-box stores and poor service/quality, I elected to purchase a 2018 top load washer from Speed Queen. Decided to support products made in USA and a brand known for quality and integrity. Within 2 weeks after purchase of new washer, it would not turn on. Started keeping log of events and now (week later) the same occurrence. It has been reported there are known issues with control panel and I am very disappointed that Speed Queen would sell washers under this circumstance. I only hope that I can get a repair or a refund.

I have used this washer for over a year. The tub barely fills to 2/3 and I was told by customer service this is because of government regulations. Very annoying if you would like to wash what is normally considered a full load. My MAIN COMPLAINT is the problem I have with bedsheets becoming literally knotted and twisted so badly that I must continually monitor my washer as if a naughty child! I’m over babysitting my washer.I have tried so many techniques when washing bedsheets, one at a time with small miscellaneous clothing or pillowcases, a top and bottom sheet with a few other items. Ninety percent of the time I’m untangling sopping wet clothes so they will at least be clean, as well as monitoring the rinse cycle. Has anyone found an answer for this problem?

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!

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 inherited my dryer with my house 22 years ago, and I love its simplicity and reliability. However, its starting to need replacing. Now, sometimes a piece will get caught in the exhaust filter now, and I doubt that there will be replacement parts available for this antique. I like its simple dial for time and/or cycle, clothes get dry, and the lint trap is in the front and very easy to clean out. I also like that its a gas dryer and not an electric. I wish that I had a separate lower heat setting for delicates - the air-only setting gets nothing dry. Other than that I wouldnt change a thing, and when I get a new dryer, I will definitely get another Speed Queen.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

My husband and I bought a Speed Queen Washer in 2018, might I say it was not cheap. We had heard good reviews and wanted to get one that would last. We have now had it two years and now I am having to wash each load twice to just get most of the stains out of the clothes. My husband is a farmer and can go thru two to three pairs of jeans a day depending on what he is working on. For what we spend I could have bought a cheap one every six months for what this one cost. If you are looking to do heavy duty laundry the Speed Queen is not for the job.

We really love how simple this machine is to operate. I love that you can fill up the tub and soak stuff without it automatically getting rid of the water you have in the tub soon as you decide to shut off. The other type that are top-loading but are similar to front loaders they would always empty out the tub in. That isnt what I wanted to do. I love this machine because it works like the machines I grew up on where you can start and stop it wherever you want without it emptying. Does a great job washing our clothes no matter what cycle we use. Definitely would recommend.

And as such, I wouldnt recommend this brand to anyone. My next machine will be a Miele or Bosch. I hear they are still producing high quality and most importantly DURABLE products. Very disappointed!

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.

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 our Speed Queen washer (TR3000WN) through Amazon in Oct. 2016. This is the old school model; not computerized. Formerly we went through several brands and models of different big-name washers, some of which were rather expensive, and most of which lasted only a few years at best. While many of the reviews of the newer Speed Queens seem to indicate that the brand is no longer as good as it once was, I can attest that so far ours has been WONDERFUL. IT WASHES THE CLOTHES. We live on a farm and have lots of dirt. The Speed Queen does not play around, but washes the clothes quickly and gets them clean. Our former eco-friendly washer took FOREVER and still did not do as good a job. I recommend this particular model of Speed Queen, if you can find one.

My husband surprised me with the Speed Queen washer (TR7) and dryer (DR7). The washer is fabulous. The dryer is awful! The metal plate in the back immediately turned black as it was burning our clothes. We cleaned the vents, replaced the panel and started drying everything on delicate and it is still burning our clothes. Called the store we bought it from and a technician called us and said it would be $150 to come out and basically told my husband it was user error and all the panels turn black. I am not spending a 1/3 of a new LG or Samsung for a tech to come out and tell me user error. All my boys underwear, socks, multiple shirts, countless blankets/comforters and 3 sets of sheets are burnt and ruined. Do not spend the grand on this dryer! My 8 year old Samsung dryer ran circles around this one - we should have never gotten rid of it!

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. :-(

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.

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).

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.

Updated on 04/28/2021: We purchased a TR5 Speed Queen washer/dryer in June 2020. The washer has never worked right and the place of purchase Big Sandy Dublin, Ohio keeps sending out repairman that cannot fix it. Yesterday we had a 3:00 appointment after waiting another 2 weeks and repairman canceled. Next month the washer warranty will run out and I’m wondering if that’s the goal. I will never buy anything from Big Sandy or Speed Queen again. They don’t treat the customers right or back up their product. I’m reading many customer complaints of these newer speed queen appliances not working so this is definitely an issue they ARE aware of... There needs to be a recall and these customers need refunded the money they spent on these appliance lemons!! I spent the extra money for the speed queen name and quality and I’m now regretting it!Original Review: BUYER BEWARE???? Warning on buying Speed Queen appliances.??? We purchased the TR5 washer and dryer around this time last year. Almost immediately the washing cycle would stop and 4 lights come on simultaneously. The repairman have been to our house 3 times and the last time they replaced the control board but that didn’t fix it. Now they’re saying it’s a balance issue. We were sold a lemon and I have asked for a refund since we alerted them to this problem from the very beginning. I was told in an email that the manufacturers warranty covers repairs; there are no provisions for returns/exchanges so I’ll have to keep the lemon they sold me! I spent the extra money on this set because of the Speed queen name and quality and I’m deeply regretting it. I will NEVER buy a product from this company again nor will I recommend them to anyone.
