  • It does kinda create the illusion of soapy bubble filled white water. If you change thinking about the ‘white water’ section to actually be the see through part in between clear round water droplets (the ‘bubbles’) that are clinging to the side of the container.

    It’s most likely someone recently poured some water out of it from the spout at the bottom and what water is left on the sides from the former water line slowly makes its way down to the new water level.


  • According to the lyrics, they aren’t exclusively complaining, they’re telling “good stories” about their not-so-great experience which is a different thing. Also, they never tried to be a ‘good guest’ at parties, merely that they were found to be ‘interesting at parties’ because of their ‘good stories’.

    That said, I really wish they didn’t repeat lyrics so much and instead told more of those “good stories” they keep boasting about.














  • 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!
