Hello, and thank you for reaching out. The end of cycle signal volume can be adjusted by selecting the Signal keypad on the control pad. There are four volume options that you can choose from: Off, Low, Medium, and High. Additionally, we're sorry to hear that you are not fully satisfied with the cleaning ability of your washer. We would like to recommend a few tips for using your TR7 top load washer. Preparing Wash Load: Make sure to sort items according to the manufacturer's care label. Sort by color, fabric/construction, temperature, and amount of soil. Pretreat: Pretreat collars and cuffs with pretreat product or liquid detergent when placing in washer. If any special stains are present, treat individually. Loading Washer: Always add low sudsing, High Efficiency detergent to the washtub before loading items. Load larger and heavier items first so they are at the bottom of the washtub. Load items by the amount of space they take up, not their weight. Mix large and small items in load to get the best washing results. An out-of-balance load may limit spin speeds and affect wash quality. Wash Temperature: Hot water is most effective for cleaning. Warm is useful for providing a thorough cleaning on light and moderately soiled clothing without damaging fabric or adding to color fading. Cold water is ideal for delicate items. Please note, in wash temperatures colder than 60 degrees F, detergents do not dissolve well. This may cause ineffective cleaning, or lint and residue to form. Your washer's water temperature is determined by the temperature of incoming water supply. In cold, winter months, consider using Hot water instead of cold and warm water in order to obtain the most effective clean. Cycles: With the TR7, you can use the Soak option in order to treat heavily soiled items before the wash cycle begins. Maximum Soak is 24 hours. The Heavy Duty and Super Soiled cycles with Extra Rinse can also be selected for best wash results with heavily soiled items. We hope this all helps!
Have to was everything on heavy duty or end up with spots on clothes - spots that were not on clothes when they when into the wash. It was like the laundry soap wouldn’t rinse out. Tried several different soaps still happened
I am not impresed with this machine at all. My wife washed my sweat pants and when they came out of the dryer they had fabric softner stains all over them.

Hello, and thank you for reaching out. We recommend that if this continues to occur, that you request technical service from your local dealer in order to confirm that there are no technical issues with the machine. However, we can provide tips on avoiding undissolved fabric softener: Fabric softener dissolves best in hot or warm temperatures and with a sufficient amount of water. If using the Normal Eco Cycle, please utilize the Extra Rinse option if using fabric softener.

We purchased the TR7 washer and dryer the beginning of Dec 2019. I have done several different types of loads now and honestly love these new machines. They are quiet, efficient and our clothes are clean and amazingly almost wrinkle free. I love the different selections that are available for both washing and drying and have even used the delay feature to have the wash done while sleeping, and using at a lower electrical rate time, in order to just pop it into the dryer when I get up. The only features I'm not crazy about are the lid lock on the washer and it stops filling when you raise the lid. But, I just put the soap in, let it fill for just a bit to get the soap mixed, and before the lid locks, open it and put the clothes in. I also love the top load style over the front load. Anything new though always takes a bit of adjustment to get used to doing something different. All in all, even though on the higher price side, I am VERY VERY happy that I spent the extra money and look forward to just as many years service as my old Lady Kenmore set gave us.
Brought Speed Queen TR7 washer 3 weeks later brought TR7 dryer. Absoutely amazing products. Love the fresh smell of my clothes. Using less soap and softner and saving $$.
We bought this washer because ours went out and of course it is also a “ heavy duty “ washer I was a little disappointed that the washtub wasn’t bigger /deeper! However it washes just as much laundry as I used to wash in my last washer without any trouble it is very easy to use and a lot quieter than I would have expected!! I Love It ! Thank You
We love our new TR7, by Speed Queen! We only have 1 issue, when using liquid fabric softner , it sometimes stains clothes, and have to rewash the entire load.. We only use a small amount and this still happens. Overall, love the washer, and couldn't wait too have a washer with an agitator again!
Clothes Finally Clean - so grateful for a machine that has a center agitator, uses enough water to actually clean the clothes and has plenty of wash cycle options. Sometimes the older technologies are the best solution. Is it really high efficiency (HE) when you have to wash your clothes multiple times using longer cycle times? And then still have to use one of the scented products flooding the market to cover up the smell of unclean clothes? No thank you. Speed Queen + Charlies Soap = CLEAN
