Washing machines

always going out of balance then reprograming to start over so a half hour wash would sometimes take two hours

Mine does this every freaking time. I've never been so mad at a simple inanimate object before. Will NEVER buy LG again.

I avoid LG products like the plague. Life's not Good with them.

It is sad to spend that kind of money and then find out once again the government regulations have screwed you. When you are ready to trash it just Google Speed Queen reviews and videos. They have one video that compares the Speed Queen vs Maytag. The Maytag is full of plastic.

I researched speed Queens too recently and came to the same conclusion.

CR rates then very low based solely on water use.

I plan on getting one soon.

Love my Samsung HE. Has never gone out of balance once. Haven't had the first issue.

You will,

You will




When the problem does happen MAKE SURE THEY USE THE SPRINGS FROM THE 2015 bulletin and not the stock springs or the problem will return.

Old heavy duty whirlpool top loader is a workhorse for us!

My LG did the same thing with the balance when it was less than a month old. LG sent out a repair man who replaced a circuit board and it hasn't given the out of balance error in 2 years.

wash it with vinegar and water and run cleaner in your machine once a month. Affresh works pretty good, a heavy dose of bleach does good too (applied into the tub directly)

Generally the mold building up really bad could be a sign that the air vent is blocked. Pretty much every front loader I have ever seen has had some black on that seal, the ones that don't are people who clean constantly or keep the door open to the washer. (which you shouldn't have to do because they have a vent) Another thing is to make sure the machine is level and that water runs away from the door and quickly down the seal and doesn't build up there.

Never had a problem with my LG. cost the same. Your wife does love it, especially when I give it to her on the spin cycle.

I recommend Speed Queen, but my current machines are LG. I like to change my appliance out often though. I generally get them for free and the free LG matching set trumped my old set. Speed Queens are great, but I'm cheap.
