In Reply to: OT- washing machines posted by Bret4207 on February 14, 2018 at 05:36:02:

Bret,
Recently bought a top-loading washer and dryer too. Went with a less-
expensive brand... BUT wishing I'd gone with Speed Queen even though
the price as almost $500 higher than the set I did purchase.

ONE CAUTION: Just because a new machine has a for-real looking agitator
pole... does NOT mean that it will really agitate!!!

My new machine's version of agitation is a feeble, pathetic, paltry,
and woefully inadequate: "reh---reh---reh"... as opposed to ALL of my
former washers: "WHOOOSHA-WHOOOSHA-WHOOSHA".

ANDDDD you cannot pre-fill the tub. You must toss in the detergent,
then the clothes, THEN press start and it will fill up.

ANDDDDD you cannot pre-soak in the manner that I used to do... because
after the bleeping thing sets for 10 minutes, it will "auto-empty".
Soooo, then you have to refill it and start again... I'd like to know
how THAT is energy efficient. Sheeesh!

PLUS, I have to set it to the two-rinse cycle to get a decent rinse...
because it just sprays water while spinning. Sure - that'll get all the
detergent out... NOT.

Next time I'm looking for an antique one - like grandma had, with a
wringer... and have my husband throw a new motor on it. LOL!!

Again, wishing I'd gone Speed Queen. But even at that - be sure to ask
them if it TRULY agitates because the Speed Queen sales person told me
the new models this year must be High Efficiency... so maybe the
"talking heads of regulation" have taken away their power-agitation
too! I don't know.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo. ... [Read Article]
