what is inside the Speed Queen TC5 Classic?
• What's Inside a Speed ...
#SPEEDQUEEN #WASHER #AGITATOR
I have the Speed Queen washer you feature in your video and we love it. I won't part with it. We drove 20 miles out of town to the only store that sells Speed Queen and it was well worth it.
We bought a Speed Queen washer and dryer when we purchased out home in 1991. We replaced the washer about 4 years ago after too many horse blankets and saddle pads killed it. We still have the gas dryer. I have had to replace rolling stock and a belt when a tennis shoe stopped the drum on the inside and the motor dutifully burned right through it to complete the cycle. I replaced the igniter once. It's about ready for a rolling stock rebuild which isn't much trouble and I will replace the igniter just because. It will take a couple hours and and about $180 bucks for everything and that isn't too bad for all the service that machine has produced. Now I have to get my original Trane Executive air conditioning system cleaned, lubed, and fired up for this summer.
I bought my speed queen 9 years ago and I'm still happy. I wanted a machine that was made in the USA and Ripon Wisconsin is my neighbor to the north and laundromats have speed queen washers and they really take a beating and that says a lot about their quality
I just scored a speed queen washer and dryer at an auction for $25 each!! I took them home and they work perfectly. They’re 4 years old but work and look new.
Yep. I have a AWN542SP that we bought in Dec. 2013 and it is the BEST!!
Even Speed Queen, it has no comparasion with the old direct drive whirpool. Old direct drive is a testament to what was whirpool corporation.
They also had a 40-year run with the original belt drives.
Having had a 2013 Speed Queen that I gave to a member of a club that still working I believe, I would take a direct drive new over a Speed Queen new. The direct drive washers especially with three speed motors or versatile machines.
You speak the truth , I work on all of them for a living, I own a 2016 speed queen
Had mine delivered yesterday and it wont start. It lasts forever because it doesn't run!
How about plugging it in first.
We have that Speed Queen. Got it June of 2013. Works great.
What about an old school Whirlpool / Kenmore Direct Drive washer. Those where also built to last and they where way cheaper.
I have the model show and it washes great , never given me a problem and looks new.
Same here. Mine is a 2013 AWN412 with matching dryer. I chose these used units over the new Speed Queen models. Nothing like the latest " old school" technology. LOL Other people in this video comment on rust as in the washer featured in the video. Hey , its just like your car. Wipe up the detergent , bleach, and fabric softener spills and keep it clean. The result......no rust.
I had all those other junky machines that didn't last very long and that's why I went to a speed queen because I need a washer that I can depend on year after year and not the serviceman!!!
When you get tired of making the service man's boat payments, get a Speed Queen
I still want to know why a bunch of websites rated the new speed queens so poorly in cleaning performance. It's nice that they're built well, but if they clean as bad as the reviews say then whats the point.
I am beginning to think some of these places that do testing like Consumer Reports, out of all the load loads LG had top 3 out of 4 & I have heard so many problems with them , bad. I had decided that's what I wanted til I read reviews & talked to our local appliance dealer. She knew a hell of alot more than what I read anywhere abt the HE impeller top loads, I had a front loader I loathed so knew I wanted top loader & I like to conserve water & energy but what I didn't know was that even though they have huge tubs even a deep wash only fills up abt 3/4 of the way then I started reading those complaints online abt clothes not getting dry or putting a king comforter in & when done, the impeller was not strong enough to pull the comforter down into water & too was bone dry.
Speed queed has plenty of water & you can fit comforter in there & agitator will swish & move it around.
I wnded up getting the TC5 w/5 yr warranty parts & labor which is unheard of in appliance world. So far super happy, & when dryer goes I am replacing it with the speed quees. All the washer bodies prettry much look the sane but SQ is so much better made & it is simple, the more moving parts, the more technologies tou add, the more problems you will have. I don't need to control my washer from grocery store. You should never leave any appliance like that running & always, turn off water when you are done washing. Only takes sec to turn back on
I'm running my 1986 Maytag until it dies!
Cheaper to repair that superior machine anyway.
They wash well, they're built tough, and they fill up with the proper amount of water!
... they actually fill up with water, Whoever thought they would see the day that a washer would not fill up with water?
@Makin Shooties They do a real rinse too, not this spray rinse unless you use the fabric softener option!
The powers that are in place are trying to make us believe that the water of the earth is running out. Many of these people actually claim to believe in science... Science fiction maybe.
@@patcola7335 They're trying to eliminate real motors and transmissions in washers. Does whirlpool use synthetic or non synthetic oil in their direct drive transmissions? I heard that stuff is super heavy.
@@jeromedavis8575 I personally don't mind the reversing motors. What I do mind is less user flexibility. Whirlpool needs to stop with the restrictors on their fill valves. Cold water shouldn't take half the day to fill up the tub.
People should be able to choose a warm rinse if we want that and not be dictated to. This isn't about choice anymore but "what's best" or "greater good"....according to whom ?
I'm so weary of it I don't even really care anymore. My trust is not in the policies of man but in the LORD.
I love this brand! Top notch.
I’ve got a Speed Queen AWN412-in my little building-the plumbing went south in the building-the last time I used the washer-it fired right up-now it is sitting in there, collecting dust.
Wow, that's definitely worth keeping
The Speed Queen TC5 "CLASSIC" washer is the ONLY machine to purchase in today's appliance market!
If you have the money. $1300 for just a washer is insane.
@@andybub45 Well... after spending $400-$500 on 2-3 cheap-plastic-junk washers that last 4-5 years... it makes sense to initially purchase a Speed Queen "classic" washer that lasts 25-30 years, fills-up with water to the top & actually gets dirty laundry clean!
why everyone WANTED a Speed Queen before they changed them. Now, they're junk
What exactly changed? What year did the junk supposedly start?
You have to get the TV2000
So are a lot of people excited about Speed Queen washers because they wash ‘just as good’ as the older Whirlpool direct drive washers? Is that it because I have only used old Whirlpool washers and never had complaints about clean clothes or it breaking down. The one I have now was built in 2005. Probably the newest one I’ve ever owned (or used for that matter). I replaced the agitator dogs and the lid switch on this one so far. There is a little rust around the bleach filler which has me thinking about replacing it down the line. If the Speed Queens only do “as good of a job” as the old type then I would probably try to find an old rust-free direct drive washer and be happy.
The thing I wish they would fix is the fact that the cabinet and lids rust. I had a wonderful Speed Queen set with the stainless steel tubs and it did last 25 years but the lid rusted and it would leak down and ruin your white clothes. Why can’t they cover the lid and the top part with some kind of plastic or porcelain or epoxy coating to prevent the rust. Then they would be perfect.
The Speed Queen outer tubs are porcelain so I don't know why they couldn't do it with the tops and lids. I mean they cost enough money as it is.
Why does speedqueen washers uses Steel around the drum? why not a stainless material ?
Would be nice if they could at least galvanize the upper panel so it wouldn’t rust.
I know for what you pay for a Speed Queen they should at least porcelainize the top and lids. Their outer tubs are porcelain so I don't see why they just couldn't do that.
I have the speed queen washer and love it. I would love to fins a speed queen front. Loader and a old Maytag as well. Can you help me?
Obviously Longevity and quality!
TC5 Classic Clean AMEN !
Even the classic clean doesn't have adjustable water levels and it has a control board behind those knobs.
Can you still get replacement parts for these ???
The old amana was a speed queen
The other washers and dryers be like the crowd
"Why everyone want's a Speed Queen"
-- want's = want is?
-- want's = the want owns something, i.e. a Speed Queen belongs to the want?
Auto-correct doesn't fully grasp spelling and grammar. :-)
Speed queen knows what they're doing. Even when they made the 2018 flop washer, it was still better than anything else on the market and will outlast anything made today.
It's a shame how hard it is to find a decent and reliable machine today outside of Speed Queen washers
LoL.. even their "flop" is better than whirlpools best effort today
@@appliance-insider yeah, I owned a bravos for 8 years. How it even got to be that long without dying is beyond me. But regardless it was a piece of crap that did a mediocre job at best with most loads and if I wanted to get anything thoroughly cleaned it would have to go on a ridiculously long cycle.
Now I own a ge as when the Maytag died the only speed queens being sold were the 2018 ones.
The GE can not compare to a direct drive or modern speed queen. But comparing it to the other he machines on the market, it does a decent job. Especially with its deep fill option. But honestly if I could make that choice over, I'd buy a used direct drive washer.
@@appliance-insider I'll take the Maytag commercially even over a TC5. Had a 2013 Speed Queen washer and it was a good machine. Been there done that.
Also are you refurbishing this thing
Which is better...a tr5003wn or a tc5003wn
TC
TC5!
Ten Times Better? doubt it.
