It never occurred to me that a Toploader would fit better in a narrow room. Good point!

As a repair technician, I certainly wouldn’t buy an LG top load washer. In my experience, they’re notorious for off-balance issues with their TrueBalance feature. This manifests as the uE or UE error code and causes the washer not to spin out the clothes. There are many causes for this failure (for which there are service bulletins recognizing this issue by the way), but the worst and most common cause is that the algorithm on the main control board fails to properly sense the basket. The solution is to replace the board, which is an expensive repair. In my opinion, this issue is the achilles heel for these LG top loaders. Otherwise, I do agree that they’re good units - yet they are in no way superior to Speed Queen!

Interesting… I’ve been in the Appliance business my entire life. I’ve done every single job from Sales to Service… parts department, service manager, etc. etc. etc.… How anyone can say an Electrolux product is actually good is just mind-boggling to me. I think they’re the absolute worst appliances on the planet, I wouldn’t recommend them to anyone…😅 At any rate… I love your channel and find it very interesting to see other peoples points of view… Have a great weekend 😅lol I’m also in the HVAC, plumbing, and electric business… I find that across all businesses you can line up 10 HVAC technicians, 10 appliance technicians, and ask them all the same question and they were all give a completely different answer…😂…

We bought a matching pair of Speed Queen units 8 years ago, the ones that still have the working Agitator, and these units have been fantastic so far with zero issues.

When I had to purchase a new washer six years ago, I shopped with the intention of getting the matching dryer. The salesperson suggested that I keep the dryer if it was still working. Well, here it is six years later and the dryer is still functioning, knock on wood. I have a small laundry closet. Im the only one who sees the washer and dryer. Makes no difference if the two match as long as they do what they are supposed to do and do it well.

Nothing wrong with a mismatched washer and dryer if it doesn't bother you! Glad your dryer's still working well.

I heard Speed Queen is developing a larger capacity washer (top loader and front loader). Hoping they give us a 5.5 cu ft front loader and 5.5-6.0 cu ft top loader!

I bought the TR 7 last year. A couple of weeks ago dryer stopped working. I was annoyed when I called for service and I was told next available appointment was a month away. The next day I tried the dryer again and it was working. It's an electric dryer, we did unplug it etc. Did not cancel the service appointment, thinking it might stop working again and there is a strange code on the display. LG was my second choice, hubby talked me into SQ. We shall see ... Blake your wife is right, they have to match!

I wish Electrolux offered a full size heat pump dryer. Don’t matter how good your unit is. If it’s never going to be financially an option.

I thought you had said in the past top loaders are better than side loaders…. Or at least more reliable. Why did you day ‘unfortunately’ this time?
@BoulevardHome
@BoulevardHome Ай бұрын
In this case it's simply because Blake would have picked an Electrolux front loader if his laundry room had the space. We'll admit saying "unfortunately" was a bit misleading! There's totally nothing wrong with going with a top load versus a front load. Thanks for watching!
