And when you mentioned computer problems down the road I absolutely agree. I have a whirlpool cabrio set and the dryer doesn’t start sometimes it does sometimes it doesn’t.👍

When this man enters the store, temperature drops 10 degree (in Celsius)... crows silence themselves and hold their breath... employees whisper to the backlot folks, hide the tubs, hide them all... and to the display units they say, sorry, boys, but be brave!

Whirlpool and GE over LG is insane. But ur spot on about Samsung.

25 years ago, most top loaders were well built and did a great job cleaning clothes.

In 2023, most top loaders are poorly made and share the same suspension design flaw that ensures they won't last, except for Speed Queen.

How well were the old machines made? There's YouTuber who refurbishes old washers and films it. He ran a load in a 70-year-old machine, PRE-REBUILD, and it worked great.

The agitator plunged up and down vertically instead of spinning, clothes fully circulated about once every 60 seconds and were clean.

Um our service technician recommended us either a LG or a Samsung over a Whirlpool or GE. That's what we went for is an LG, best washer we've ever had in our house. Also you say that GE is American made, well did you know that both GE and Whirlpool are using parts that are globally sourced? And did you know that both LG and Samsung are now assembling washers in America? Unlike GE or Whirlpool, LG and Samsung make their own parts.

I would prefer a used Whirlpool Direct Drive or Newton Built Maytag washing machine if I can't go for Speed Queen.

Watched a few videos of top load agitators, TR7, TC5, and an LG. TR7 seemed to only slosh back and forth and cloths stayed in same general spot. TC5 moved the close, but seemed to just beat the ones next to the agitator until they would sink after a few minutes. The LG agitator had a spiral that kept pulling the cloths down and cycled everything at a constant rate.
I have also read a bunch of forums where repair techs say SQ isn't recommended by them for reliability, it's for how easy they are to work on.

Actually, LG washer made in America.
LG washer factory locate in Clarksville, TN.

My problem with speed queen is not cost but capacity. We have king size bedding and typically do large loads. Any advice?

My Samsung front loader washer and dryer running strong after 7 years.

My hotpoint lasted 12 years and I just replaced it with an LG.
Look for the price of a speed Queen that would probably last 25 years I could buy about four or five LG's or hot points that will probably last 10 to 12 years each.

I agree all the way around; especially regarding Speed Queens; BUT ONLY THE TC series would the curves in the column of the agitator NOT the TR; with the straight vane agitator. With all due respect; I think the TR is the biggest mistake SQ made but thats just my opinion although if you google you will find out for yourself. The Speed Queen TC are the only "old school" washers still made to the best of my knowledge. They are worth the money. So glad they brought it back and still make it!!!! Only thing I miss is the "manual timer dial"

What is your opinion on the Whirlpool Catylist washer?

[ladylyonteeth]

Love your videos. You have the insights, and that’s why I’m here. I’m confused though. You said the GE dual action agitator is best. But, you also said the direct drives by LG look good. Since GE doesn’t make supposedly direct drive, would you still go for it since LG doesn’t do dual action? (for some reason they say it’s four way action, but I don’t know what that means. ) I’m surprised all agitators don’t provide more than just a one way. It should be easier to pick a washer. 😮

I….I….I… it’s all about him. Make your own choice people

My samsung has been amazing it saves me 50 dollars a month in water bills it washes my clothes well only issue is it’s starting to smell

[FilipTarnawski-mf]

I have samsung ecobubble for over 9 years and never had any problems till now, and I ll get another samsung

[xmsteel]

Bought a GE after my Bosch finally gave up after 20+ years. Nothing but problems with it, been fighting with GE for 6 months so far, had 2 repairs, and 4 service calls. Refusing to replace or refund and keep saying its "repairable" and throw more parts at it. Been an absolute nightmare!

[geefim]

Got the whirlpool with the removable agitator. Will see how it does. Replacing a 10 year old whirlpool with agitator.

[basketballhoops]

I’d rather have a Maytag or Lg but I’m still grateful for whatever
