Speed Queen washer and dryer. A bit more expensive up front, but definitely worth it.
Au, how cute! I guess it's also pretty metal! Maybe autistics are the.. gold standard?
How interesting! Thanks for the information and for posting! It's certainly a new idea for me to think about. Been considering chickens in the future but don't have the space where I'm at are currently. One day tho.. I will definitely look more into this.
Silly questions from the uniformed - How do ducks do with someone taking their eggs?
What's their rough time line for laying? Weeks? Months?
What do you need to keep ducks? A pond? A...fence?
Edited- to get rid of my brain noise.
Interesting read. It's nice that they called out the emotional guilt as the heavy yet unnoticed weight it can be.
In my opinion - If this were like a car race around a track, Speed Queen would be lapping all of the competition. The drums in both washer and dryer are huge, with the cycles running quickly. It seems to me that my clothes are cleaner from the wash and super fresh from the dryer. The fluff up feature and near dry feature are great on the dryer. The washer comes with a setting that you can use oxiclean to get a really really deep clean.
Ive heard but not confirmed that they use the same machines they sell to laundry mats, but just add a coin slot and allow them to go slightly faster. Anyway take that as you wish.
What you can definitely see from their website is that they stand behind and perfect a single model of gas/electric/stacked machine, rather than building multiple different machines for each. The company hasn't changed its design much in years.
Great warranty. Techs specific to the machines - I bought the stackable floor model so it had been jarred around by shoppers for years before being bought and needed simple swap. Manuals are online and easy to find. Easy to read error codes with limited items that can cause each error problem. They even have a cycle that runs through all the systems on the machine run in quick succession to check for any problems (I don't know if other machines have this too, but it's the first time I've seen a tech utilize such a cycle).
If you check out your local equivalent of craigslist, fb marketplace, nextdoor, ebay, etc. you'll find very few if any Speed Queens for sale, especially in comparison to the other laundry brands out there. Which to me, means people are likely using them til they're dead, rather than getting rid of them to upgrade to something better.
Sorry for the novel. I've never really been impressed with any of the previous laundry machines I've used before. Most brands are fine and some suck. This brand is great! I actually enjoy getting the laundry done now.. but Shhhhhh!! Don't tell anyone!
