Always admired the speed queens when I did laundry at the laundromat it's over the years at a younger age. So now having the opportunity to purchase one for my home I had high expectations and I was not disappointed. The dryer is rock solid and of the highest quality it just gets it done And with our family of 5 we need something that keeps on going. You may pay a little bit more but you will not be disappointed I trust speed Queen with all my laundry needs. For a little bit more you get a lot more quality and peace of mind no junk here.
Ive owned a Speed Queen washer & dryer for over 10 yrs. I wash/dry at least 20 loads per week for my family. ( Lots of very dirty work clothes for my hubby) I bought my second SQ dryer this month. I love the quality built machine made here in the USA. Made the way we used to make products to last. This is s strong, hard working, thoroughly drying your clothes, no frills machine.( I buy the basic; you can get the more frills SQ machines) I believe it would last up to & beyond 20 yrs with "normal" use. I work them extra hard with so many loads per week which equal out to about 20 yrs for normal use. Im trying to talk my husband into a new SQ washer since they have 10yr parts & labor right now. He will not give due to the fact that our 10 y/o washer is still working like a charm. He says he expects it to last another 10 yrs. Honestly I do too. But would love a new one to match my new dryer. (Just a woman thing) LOL Speed Queen please keep up the good quality workmanship & service. We truly need that in this country again!!
The first dryer I had was a lemon. Heating unit was bad -- had to wait a week for replacement. Dryer performs fine. takes longer than my last dryer to dry clothes (formerly had a Maytag)
These machines are great!! Very well built, very large capacity and beautiful stainless steel tub. The washer works very quickly with lots of options for wash style and load size. I can’t recommend them highly enough!! They are easy to keep clean and are pretty quiet.
Not the most beautiful washer and dryer but the washer sure does a great job compared to the front loader that it replaced. I have no doubt that this washer and dryer will last us for decades.
Great dryer. Really quiet compared to my old Kenmore. I don't care for the lint screen. It is not removable and you have to dig the lint out. Seems kind of flimsy. But, that's my only complaint. Overall, seems like it is built like a tank and should last a long time.
