Ive checked.... In fact a bought and returned a couple of them.
Speed Queen is the only washer made today that functions like one made 20 years or more ago.
So unless you like cheap build quality, crappy wash cycle and computers, don't by a new one unless its a speed queen.
Old washers are great and easy to fix.
The new front loaders are nice I guess, but I have seen a ton of them broke down with mold, crapped out seals or just a computer that refuses to function, when you can buy a speed queen for the same price or less, why bother.
