Thinking to buy Speed Queen Washer & Dryer? Think twice...
If you have really dirty laundry, like from a blue collar job or kids that play football/baseball/soccer, or a farm/ranch, then you probably want the TC5. If you have more delicate, expensive laundry, like from an office job, then you probably want a TR model, and the TR7 is the most popular because it can be programmed to either be as gentle as hand washing or can wash for up to 90 minutes to get extra dirty stuff clean. There are three TR models that so have the same wash system but different controls and different warranties. Simple TR3, medium TR5, fancy TR7. The number in the “name” is how many years warranty.

Splurge on the washer, save on the dryer
That's exactly what we do. Speed Queen TR7 washer and a $500 Amana dryer.

Does anyone regret spending more for SpeedQueen?
The TR7 is much more gentle on clothing than the TC5. I provide wash, dry, fold service out of my home using the TR7 and have had nothing not perfect results every time. It's extremely versatile and can handle any fabric, heavily soiled, delicate... You name it!

Does anyone regret spending more for SpeedQueen?
I had a maytag commercial. it started acting up after about a year. I moved, so i got rid of it. My girlfriend had the same washer, and it eventually started not completing cycles, not emptying the water, and a few other annoying problems. We could reset it, and/or unplug it for a few and re do the load to completion. I think we got a total of five years out of the two identical machines.. The matching dryer is doing fine. We Just got the speed queen tr7 washer. Here's hoping it's all the say it is.

Unpopular Opinion: “Researching Before Buying” as an Excuse for Overthinking
I absolutely agree with you and I’ve had analysis paralysis about things I shouldn’t have. My husband is a lot more likely to just buy things and that causes issues, too. Like, we got a tv on a great deal, but it doesn’t support some apps that we use a lot. If I were the one deciding I would have known. I also think some “buy it for life” stuff is just more expensive and not that much better. For example. I bought a speed queen washer, the tr7. I love it and I was so mad at my Samsung washer breaking all the time I was willing to spend money. I have wondered over the years if spending double was actually worth it though. But I can’t really know until it lasts 20 years or not! I also had my last Bosch dishwasher go out after less than 6 years. I was pretty mad and almost went with a Kitchenaid, but got another Bosch for about $400 more. Will it really be worth it, or am I just a snob because of Reddit reviews and needing to have something other people think will last a long time? Maybe I would be better off without analyzing everything.

Are Speed Queens actually BIFL?
I have a TR7 and it’s working great. They redesigned them in 2019 and 2021, but places stopped reviewing them. They all have electronic controls. The TR series had better features that I use a lot. TC was too bare bones for me. I’ve had it about 4 years.

Speed Queen TR7 DR7. Buy once, cry once.
Speed queen is smaller than my Samsung. After I was sick of the front load Samsung that was a nightmare. I got a cheap GE top load set because I was done with the front load. Well, the GE wasn’t very good on the clothes and had too many repair repairs over the years. Sick of buying washers and dryers. I bought a speed queen. I feel like my clothes feel clean, They feel like they’re in better condition, it just works perfectly. I can’t see enough about it. Even though the tub is smaller, you can put more clothes than I ever put in anything else. And that is because you can stack it all the way to the top and the water literally fills to the very brim. Now I’ve only had it since this year so I don’t know if there will be any warranty items but if so, I have a seven year warranty with my TR7 and DR7.
