Peter I use the Auto fill for about 90% of the loads that I do unless I know for sure that I will need the Large load setting... I did many tests with this washer myself when I first got it and was totally amazed by the outcome of every load... I have no regrets about buying this machine whatsoever, People just have to understand that these are washing machines and not miracle workers... No washing machine gets out every stain the first time without a little help from soaking or pre-treating!!! Thanks for the video and have a great day!!!
Yes Robert I think these were designed for Auto Fill I just did it to test out full fill. Too much water and the clothes flow I just like a-lot of water.
@@petermaz701 Oh I knew that Peter, I sometimes do that myself when I have something that needs to be able to move around freely for the best cleaning results like a throw rug or something...
Even when I had my direct drives if I had stains I always pre treated them and let the treatment set in for a while then I’d spot the same spot with liquid detergent and let it set for fifteen minutes before I throw it in the machine with the rest of the load add the rest of the detergent and start the machine. It never fails and I’m certain that with this machine set to maximum soil it won’t fail either because it’s the way it was designed to work with detergent.
Hi I just bought a new TR7104WW. Huebsch (speedqueen sold in canada are called huesch). Anyway, I have not seen anyone mention this particular model number. But maybe its different because im from Canada. On another note. Im 32 and cant believe im watching videos on washing machines 😂
Hey, I always had an interest in Washer from when I was a little kid now I'm not a little kid anymore and I still watch. It is not strange, and you're not alone.
@@petermaz701 I've just figured out the tricks to make this washer really do a good job in addition to Auto-Fill. Also I pretreat stains with Shout or Spray & Wash or using store brand equivalents of these pre- treaters. Use top rated detergents like PERSIL or TIDE HE TURBO POWDER WITH BLEACH or LIQUID TIDE HE TURBO STAIN RELEASE LIQUID.
Look ok considering I believe there are only two agitub washers that I’m aware of. I feel this does very well. Look I was never a fan of Wash plate washers but the LG does well for those types. So did the GE my only issue is the low water levels. I like water. Lol.
We should put you in charge of naming the cycles. You can get a nice lucrative job with speed queen better yet will ship you off to whirlpool so you could revamp their entire corporation, especially the Washer division.
@@petermaz701 Pat recently told me that he hates Speed Queen so leaving him to name the cycles won't be so much a good idea. I think that you should team up with Speed Queen since you like this washer--besides Peter this is the washer of the TR series that many people cringed the most because of the wash action. Remember Speed Queen pulled the plug on Eugene from Lorain Furniture & Appliance for dissing these machines.
@@erg844 well in 2018 it was a novelty concept so people are naturally resistant to change. Tried and true is easier to accept. I have both, for different reasons, and am very satisfied with having the best thats out there.
They’ve modified the rotation? stroke? agitation? action between the initial first iteration of the TR washers and this third iteration series making the changes in rotation? or direction shorter and eliminated a one hundred and eighty degree rotation it did regularly during the course of the cycle because all of it wasted hydrodynamic force. The more concisely controlled movements now I surmise produce better results. I’ve watched closely. Also, LG shortened and slowed the periods where their impeller washers spin during their wash cycles and the customer complaints in the review sections of Home Depot and Lowe’s have faded away regarding stretched shirts and gym shorts.
I agree in the beginning everyone jumped on the bandwagon to condemn this wash style but I find with the refinement they have applied, it is a great performer thats gentler on clothes.
What detergent do you use, powder, liquid? Honestly i wouldnt mind to know your entire laundry/bedding washing regimen. Im a young man and new to washing clothes. I did buy a new tr7 set about 6 months ago.
@@MrJoshdixon123 as long as you buy a brand name like tide or gain, you know you're getting top quality cleaning. I've used powder when I wash my towels and socks, the white socks. I use liquid or pods when I do my colored clothes or sheets. The pods cost a little more, but they are easy and they do work really very well. Lots of luck with your new machine and don't worry you'll get clean clothes. 👍😊
Depends on what I’m washing. If I’m washing a set of sheets I just throw in gain pod, I’m washing colored clothes I use Woolite Dark defense. If it’s white towels and socks, I will add a Clorox pod to the gain.
@@petermaz701 thank you. I have the same model speed queen and mine does not even look like I put soap in. I use 1 tide pod for a medium load of clothes or towels. The clothes come out clean so I guess I should not worry if it doesn’t look soapy like yours. Thanks for the reply. I enjoy your laundry videos
My tr7 agitator does not move and my clothes do not come clean. When I complained to where I bought it they said the agitator was not designed to move.
The agitator does not move. It moves in conjunction with the tub that moves the clothes all around try a long cycle, heavy duty, heavy soil, or max soil level.
YOU PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE TC5, WHICH THAT ONE LITERALLY BEATS THE CLOTHES UP . Which that is the one that I will be getting simply because I'm a male and our clothes are usually a little more soiled than the ladies.
That has to be a good machine in which to wash a queen size winter comforter without flattening or beating the feathers out where you find a basket full of them.
How does your washer keep pouring water when you open the lid? Mine stops pouring water when I open it and it won’t start pouring until I press start again. I just got mine. Maybe it’s new
You have to override the safety switch in the back so when you open the lid, the machine still thinks that the lid is closed. There are many videos explaining how to do it. It's really very simple just type in. How do I override speed queen safety switch. Even if you do this, the lid will still lock so you don't have to worry about kids putting their hands in there while it's spinning.
@@heyzeus_23 no because it's nothing permanent. If God forbid you need a service Repair just take the little thing out from the back and nobody will be the wiser. Some people use a close pin. I use a little piece of Styrofoam just comes right back out.
You trick the locking mechanism, but before that you have to disable the switch in the back very simple procedure just type in on TH-cam. How do I disable the lid switch on the speed washer.
You have to disable the lid switch on the speed queen it’s very easy look up a TH-cam video that says disable lid switch on a speed between some people use a clothes pin others use a piece of Styrofoam or something under the back. It’s really easy. Now the lid lock, you have to do what I did get a pen cap the minute it’s ready to lock you push the pin cap down and you’ll trick the machine into thinking that it’s locked but you have to do the other thing first the lid switch they have nothing to do with each other. It’s two separate procedures.
4 small wash clothes, two face towels, and two regular towels, isn't really much of a load at all. Any machine will get such a small load as this clean. I'd like to know if this machine will get a normal, full load clean. Huge waste of water on such a small load.
That demo was to show that a lot of water is not conducive to proper washing with this machine using the auto fill feature uses much less water. It definitely has the power to move around a full load.
I bought my new TR7 washer and matching DR7 dryer two weeks ago and love them! According to the documentation that came with the washer, a "full load" is considered to be 18 regular sized bath towels or the equivalent. I've used auto-fill on almost every load I've done with exception of a load that consisted of 3 blouses and I set it as "small load" and "handwash." I have now washed all of my winter blankets for storage until next winter, and they all did wonderfully well, even the super heavy ones, using auto-fill (they were all queen-sized blankets and quilts). Everything comes out so clean and fresh!
@@KayKayClaudette-mh4wc I'm glad things are working out with the Washer. Lots of luck you made a good purchase. You'll get years of service out of that machine.
@@royjohnson9043 it gets a lot of hate because the traditionalists like a regular agitator washer and how they wash this uses a completely different approach to washing garments.
@@Shalompaz-m7w go on TH-cam and look up Speed queen TC 5. I think that has the agitation as well as the tap hot water and Washington tub that fills all the way to the top that a lot of us are looking for.
A terrible machine. So little action and force of agitation, I can't believe anyone would think their wash could be clean. I could run some toilet tissue through this cycle, and it still would probably be in tact.
Everyone’s entitled to their opinion, but I own this machine, and it works exceptionally well, probably the most versatile machine out there. Get a whirlpool wash plate, washer or the one with the fake agitator and see if your clothes will move around at all.
I agree! I think this is a fake review. Mine can't remove any stains and my whites never look clean even with all the hot water and bleach. This machine is a piece of junk.
This machine is really nice with my north face T-shirts and Nike T-shirt’s. They are thinner than my carhart’s. it’s nice to see when each cycle is done. The bottom of my socks is clean and fresh and with a pre-soak and other options(I don’t have to use all the time ) I can get the crusty stuff clean now or overnight This washer is really interesting :) comments on TH-cam almost had me in tears about getting this washer but Reddit reviews are better !
This is the best video I have seen on this. Looks like it works like a charm !
It actually works very well. Once you understand how it works different from the traditional agitation.

@@LlyleHunteryou have this model? I am hesitant for some bad reviews but tc5 is out stock at my local store
I like how it circulates in the opposite direction as traditional agitators -- up and out.
It's really a different washing method and I believe does a very good job. People just have to understand that it's not traditional.

Another great video! So, I’m assuming Large Load on a TR7 is equivalent to Deep Fill on a TC5? Thank you
Yes, you’re exactly right except the TR 7 goes a little higher than the TC 5. it goes to the top row of holes
Relaxing
It is the sloshing of the water definitely has that effect.
