Speed Queen FULL 'Heavy Duty' Wash Cycle

Model AWNE82SP113TW01
Washing a full load of towels on the "Heavy Duty" cycle. This cycle gives a full wash and full rinse, and you can also select a pre-wash and a second-rinse, which were not used during this cycle.

[@georgeyeager108]

This washer is amazing - kicked my HE to the curb several months ago - can't believe I found a washer that washes clothes again! Yay - a machine that fills with water - agitates - washes - spins out - and voila! clean clothes again!

[@kagome122885]

This, right here, my friends, is how you do laundry. High efficiency machines just don't cut it.

[@HarleyBadger]

+Joel Hunt Very true.

[@jeromedavis8575]

High efficiency washers are stupid!

[@CanonWoof]

So, I turned this on and let it play while I was making dinner... It was a surprisingly relaxing experience, haha

[@HarleyBadger]

+Organgrinder010 Yup, one of the settings on my sleep sound app is a washing machine.. so you know, you could just play this video repeatedly for a good night's sleep! [don't forget to click on the advertisements xD]

[@HarleyBadger]

+Jerome Davis Yes, and there are surprisingly few manufacturers left. LG and Whirlpool are major consumer-grade mfrs, with Samsung being closely related to LG. Maytag, GE, Roper, Hotpoint, Kenmore, etc are all rebadged. Frigidaire is part of Electrolux [Sweden] but it has NOTHING to do with the "original" Electrolux. The only remaining commercial laundry big-wig is Alliance Laundry Systems, which makes IPSO, Huebsch, Primus, UniMac, and yep... Speed Queen.

[@kagome122885]

It looks like you have me sold on Speed Queen. If my 2006 Roper washer ever fails, which I hope doesn't, I know what to get.

[@EmersonCollie]

The only real washer and dryer you can buy brand new today.

[@Smurdle450]

Oh, ya think? No i don't think. I KNOW. I agree Emerson.

[@fargeeks]

Even the 2019 tc5 model

[@Joemil271]

I asked the appliance store owner where I bought my SpeedQueen why the mainstream stores won't carry them and he told me that they don't want to carry speed queen because they are too well built

[@yambo59]

Im still amazed by mine, how it never shakes at all during the spin cycle, best tub suspension ive ever seen - even my 40 year old GE filterflo isn't this smooth. that spin cycle is a thing of beauty.

[@themaritimegirl]

That was majestic.

[@HarleyBadger]

+themaritimeman weknowmemes.com/2013/05/majestic-as-fuck-2/

[@jaykay18]

Excellent washing action, I wouldn't expect anything less. That spin drain really sounds like it puts a load on the motor, but the machine is designed for it.

[@jaykay18]

***** Have to see what kind of laundry I have that day!

[@Sharkie626]

+jaykay18 Looks like we just killed California even more!

[@HarleyBadger]

+jaykay18 I'll put it this way... if the motor's horsepower rating were any higher, it would have to be three-phase. Not even kidding. :-) It's the same motor as their coin-op machines, and even though the motor (and only the motor) was made outside the USA [Mexico,] it dates back to 1982.

[@Smurdle450]

Then again, it is a 1/2 HP motor.

[@Smurdle450]

I believe. I saw a few mentions on it being 1/2 HP.

[@waynemorris9903]

Hi Guys, We have a Hoover 620 automatic washer that was made in Sydney Australia in 1975, It was my parents when new and we have had her in our laundry since 1990 after my parents updated the laundry. So 40 years old now It still goes well and is all metal like the fantastic Speed Queens.

[@yambo59]

I love the old heavy duty washers, I also still have my aunts heavy duty1977 GE filter flo washer and only recently has it needed any repairs. Sadly the outer wash tub is beginning to rust and one day I wont be able to fix it, but for now it runs rings around the junk in the stores. I also have the matching dryer as well, both are still going after 40 years. I've never even seen a Hoover washing machine, love to see a video of one of those in action-!

[@kellysavage7073]

i"ll say one thing this a powerfully built washer and it is easily turning over that heavy load. man you gotta love things made in America

[@HarleyBadger]

Yup!

[@brianengineering9001]

+Harley Badger I just got the 9 series washer and dryer, love them. I can't believe the quality of these machines and I am a mechanical designer. These are like mil-spec machines. How did you get it to run with the lid up?

[@yambo59]

They are in fact commercial washers, and its easy to defeat the lid switch (not if there are kids or idiots around-!-lol) - its in the back under the control panel, no need to even take it apart. Look in with a flashlight and while its washing open the lid to stop the cycle, then looking in you can pull down the switch flap and start the cycle with lid open, then its more evident how to rig it. Some use a clothes pin, I have a small piece of hard rubber wedged into the bottom of the control panel hold the switch lever down. Theres YT videos on it. This is the highest quality of any appliance ive bought in the last 20 years.

[@HarleyBadger]

Brian Engineering Nice!!! And yep, what yambo59 said. We used a thick rubber pad to keep the switch from closing.

[@yambo59]

I used a surplus piece of Rubber from the edge of an interlocking harbor freight floor mat kit, that way if the machine ever needs service I can yank the rubber without having to lay a wrench on it, but most anything will work. Don't want the service man to think ive been tinkering now do I-? lol You can also raise the top of the washer and make a short two female terminal jumper wire to bypass the lid switch electrically, be sure to tape or insulate the terminals if you do this so it doesn't short out on the underside of the cabinet-! Its easily done but its a little more involved and takes a bit more time to reverse if that becomes necessary. You can also tweak the water level to come up to the top set of tub holes on the (extra large) water level setting, though its not really necessary. If you decide to do it unplug the machine while working inside the control panel. It requires a (slight) adjustment to the screw on the water level control going in quarter turn steps, usually no more than one turn total clockwise depending on which control valve your machine has, and you must reset the water level knob on the front of the control panel fully to the right after each adjustment till it clicks each time you change the setting inside to observe the water level results of each adjustment. Its easily done and there's a couple videos for it on YT, check the videos first to make sure you have the jist. But do it carefully in small quarter turn inicrements as you could end up flooding the room or maybe damaging the control if too heavy handed, the hex headed screw on mine was small and the adjustment is fairly sensitive. I only had to bring my water level up about an inch or so to just below the top set of holes - do not go any further than the top set of holes.

[@willthetrill4849]

Nothing but the sound just EXACTLY like a vintage washer. It has the woo woo sound which is awesome. I'm actually waiting for our front load Whirlpool washer to fail

[@borregoimages8117]

[@Bluethunderboom]

YES!! =D American Made Washer is one of the best appliance. American Pride is what we like. =)

[@kagome122885]

+Bluethunderboom Amen to that!

[@andrewg593]

Very nice. We have a Speed Queen washer from 2014 with mechanical controls. It's awesome. Way better than the washers you featured a few videos ago.

[@Sharkie626]

+Andrew Gallucci Actually, their's is electronic.

[@andrewg593]

Sharkie626 That is true, but I doubt that the control board is made in China like all other washers.

[@Sharkie626]

+Andrew Gallucci Yeah, it's probably better.

[@andrewg593]

Sharkie626 The modern electronics are ridiculous. I haven't seen many modern electronics last more than 5 years.

[@HarleyBadger]

+Andrew Gallucci Nope, the control board is made in the USA by Raytheon. The relays and motor are manufactured in the USA but assembled in Mexico. Every other component down to the nuts and bolts are made in the USA.

[@oreotcat]

Great video, thanks for sharing! Did you fix the Maytag yet? I love those machines.

[@HarleyBadger]

+focusonthegreen Thanks for watching! The Maytag pair is in the warehouse still, we have all the tools and access to the parts, but haven't had the time to do it. Lately, we have been working on the house a lot. It's also a time issue, between our schedules, Spats and I only have two days off together (and my job keeps me away from home for 3 days at a time.) One of those days we run errands and go shopping (that's when we VLOG,) and so it ends up really being only a day and a half. No place to use them yet either, our laundry area and basement are getting ready for a complete remodel.

[@yambo59]

I have a newer SQ and was a little concerned about the loud humming during the spin cycles, but S.Q. says its normal for a commercial duty motor, and now I hear this one and others on line sounding exactly the same so must be normal. Best washer ive ever owned.

[@HarleyBadger]

It's the sound of POWERRRRR (say it like Jeremy Clarkson)

[@yambo59]

LOL - Miss him on topgear - but don't have cable anymore anyway so...

[@jongilbert796]

[@HarleyBadger]

Nice!

[@Joemil271]

Great, thanks

[@yambo59]

Also everyone, FYI in 2018 the govt. is making regulations even stricter and cracking down on Speed Queen specifically water levels. In another year my local salesman tells me even Speed Queen will not be what it was. Anything the government sticks its nose in gets ruined. Emissions and safety are a big part of why cars cost what a house used to.

[@KingOfBattle119]

Speed Queen already meets the 2018 regs, not much is going to change.

[@yambo59]

I just went and ordered my new speed queen top loader today-- latest info says after this year there wont be any more knob models - all SQ washers will be touchpads even the Laundromat models. I know from cars electronic circuit boards water and vibration do not mix, more to go wrong more expensive to repair - yet the major retail brands insist on shoving it down our throats with crappy warranties to boot, except for SQ who have the best warranty in the industry. Tuesday Ill have a brand new speed queen top loader and my still running 40 year old GE filter flo as a back up if needed. Ill see first hand if my new SQ is all its supposed to be and come back here for an update either way - hopefully it lives up to the reviews.

[@KingOfBattle119]

Just got my new Speed Queen washer and dryer in today. Can't wait to wash some clothes! Which is a weird thing to say..

[@yambo59]

Well in many cases this is because after experiencing what passes for quality appliances today we get a wake up call that makes us ecstatic to go to Speed Queen to get something built like it should be that works, and after those bad experiences were ecstatic to find the last vestige of quality in SQ. I grew up in an era when we took it for granted we would get longevity and performance for our name brand money, anyone remember the lonely maytag repairman-? Don't hear much from him anymore do we-? Now he's working overtime on junk appliances and we are forced to pay exhorbitant prices for cheaply built govt. reg. crippled appliances that hide behind fancy circuit boards that pretend to give us more options but really take control away from us that we had with a simple mechanical knob timer. Today Washers have software and circuit boards that, as everyone knows do not do well in harsh environs with humidity and vibration - yet they force this error and failure prone throw away scrap metal on us and expect us to buy another one every three to five years. Meanwhile we allow ourselves to become acclimated to this as the new norm. Pretty soon they will have us using machines that employ filters that recycle the same water over and over instead of fresh water in each wash to save water-LOL Don't laugh, were talking about the govt. here.

[@KingOfBattle119]

The government is singlehandedly destroying these appliances. I have a relative who works at the Ripon, WI Speed Queen plant. The engineers are doing their best to continue to build effective machines, but the govt keeps making the standards more and more stringent. SUPER stoked I got quality machines now, won't have to sweat getting a new set for another 20+ years.

[@Bunkysworkshop]

I am loving my speed queen Duo. I do have a question about the water level. The tub only fills up about three quarters of the way. I have been using the water level knob to fill it up. Do you know if the water level is adjustable?

[@HarleyBadger]

It is if you are handy. Unplug power, disassemble the control panel area, and you will see the pressure switch (has a rubber tube coming out of it.) There is a little screw on the mechanism that you adjust, 1/4 turn at a time, to set the water level.

[@yambo59]

Yeah its an easy adjustment to raise the water level, but first be aware if you should need warranty service a technician would notice this and it (might) void your warranty. Anyway, that said be careful and do the adjustment in small increments, I did mine and don't think I had to turn it (in) more than 1/4 to 1/2 turn, I stopped just below the top set of holes. theres a couple videos on how to do it on YT - I did that and with no kids around I blocked the lid switch open and now I have the old school washer like I grew up with-lol

[@Bunkysworkshop]

Well guys I just used my first gain pod and they smell sooo good. I do miss the bubbles from my persil but sometimes you have to try something new.

[@HarleyBadger]

I LOVE the smell of Gain! :-)

[@fargeeks]

For me gotta have the best top of the line detergent out there!! Persil, or laundersol or maybe some tide powder detergent. I seriously think that the gain scents could ruin the washing chemicals of my detergents 🤷🤷 My only gripe with laundersol is that it is scentless but that stuff from what i understand is REAL top of the line detergent especially since it has phosphates which i understand have been banned from consumer detergents

[@jodyjohnson265]

I miss that hissing sound when it stops at the end of the spin cycle you don't see that on he washes.

[@yesitsmario88]

I've had my Speed Queen AWN432SP113TW04 for a week now and I'm very happy with it so far. My tub tilts to the bottom right during wash cycle like in this video, I'm assuming that's normal? I made sure the washer is leveled as well.

[@ueg790]

Yes, the tubs do tilt. Mine tilts to the 3:00 position, to the right. Fabulous washer, just don't overload it and it will serve you well for many years.

[@fargeeks]

My 2019 tc5000wn tilts towards the 6 o clock position

[@JonRob134]

My AWN432 is the best ever. 25 minutes and the wash is done and clean.

[@TheUniversalDave1]

Awesome. So much better than the china pride washers at Home Cheapo. I'd rather buy a washer made in Ripon, WI any day of the week.

[@jeromedavis8575]

My sentaments exactly. I'm sick and tired of the stupid low water wash stupid crap!

[@YhwhKhaiMostHigh]

I should have purchased a speed queen before getting the crappy HE last month. Sigh.

[@mikebennett703]

Awesome washer. Speed Queen owns laundry day! Much better than the big box store he load sensing he waterless wonders being turned loose on the public these days!

[@mikebennett703]

+Mrphatbastard1 Thank You! I'm glad to see at least one manufacturer still cares about offering a quality product a person can be proud to own.

[@mikebennett703]

+Jerome Davis Hi Jerome, What's up with itsmegp46? He / She doesn't like Speed Queen?

[@mikebennett703]

+Jerome Davis I agree 100%. The way he washers supposedly and allegedly clean is based on complete misinformation. I have owned both, and there is a significant and I mean night and day difference between traditional washers and high efficiency. Traditional washers are high effective instead of high efficiency although as you said they are also more efficient because they do the job right the first time. How anyone can live with clothes that are barely clean ( I'm being very generous when I say that ) is beyond me. Some people must love stink lol!

[@HarleyBadger]

+Mike Bennett +Jerome Davis well, let me at Itsmegp46, I can tell you one thing for certain... This washer (when used as three loads per week, as we do,) costs an average of $9 a year. Again, that's NINE DOLLARS A YEAR to operate. LG's most efficient front-loader, the WM3170CW, uses $8 a year. ONE DOLLAR per year savings. However, it does not perform as well as the SQ top-loader featured in this video, and per Consumer Reports, the LG should be REPLACED every FIVE YEARS due to longevity! So the LG saves $5 throughout its useful life, and then you gotta pay another $719 to replace it. There's NO SAVINGS, only the effect of ADVERTISING and MARKETING, which makes idiots out of normally intelligent people.

[@mikebennett703]

+harleybadger1 I'm even more impressed now! 9 dollars for a year's worth of laundry is pretty small coin for excellent cleaning. The full tub traditional washers have been around for almost a century for good reason. They can't and won't be beat!

[@Sharkie626]

(Normal comment) Does it always do a delicate first spin? If it does, I gotta admit that it's irksome. (Nothing on you guys though!)

[@spatsbear]

+Sharkie626 Yup, the first spins are always low speed, final is high speed.

[@jeromedavis8575]

All of them do it even on heavy duty. It's getting really ANNOYING!!!!

[@Bunkysworkshop]

Who makes speed queen washers?

[@Smurdle450]

Alliance laundry makes them.

[@fargeeks]

A little Loraine Furniture style huh?

[@GNX157]

I just got an AWNE92S and I noticed with the lid up that the tub tilted to the right and front and I noticed yours does the same during agitate. I triple checked the leveling all good so it must be normal caused by the 210 degree shifting and rotation of motor.

[@HarleyBadger]

It's an artifact of the heavy-duty tub suspension. Totally normal.

[@yambo59]

I was concerned about it too in my SQ, but ive checked into it extensively including a call or two to Speed Queen and it appears no one has a pat answer as to why they do this, but its a fact they all do it, and the direction they lean is totally random but it appears to be completely normal. I leveled mine within an inch of its life at least three times and it still does it, really bugs me but im a nitpicker anyway. if it wasn't under warranty I might experiment with adding another tub balance spring in the left rear corner as mine leans to the right front-lol I wish someone had a provable answer on why do it. But it does not seem to affect operation in the least, not on mine anyway.

[@Bunkysworkshop]

GNX157 Hi. I just sent an email to alliance about my SQ washer leaning to the right front while washing. I do find this strange but the washer is doing a wonderful job. I did make the water adjustment so that I do get a full tub of water each time. Very easy to do.

[@yambo59]

Ive always wondered about the lean too mine leans to the right front as well, though some lean in other directions. I really like my washer and even though ive been told from different sources its normal im sort of an nit picker as I used to be a mechanic and it bugs me. Though as I repeatedly hear its not supposed to be a problem. Ive even looked inside mine and cant find a thing wrong. I have a couple theorys on why they do it, but im just guessing.

[@Bunkysworkshop]

yambo59 I called the company today and was told that if it leans more then an inch or doesn't return to center position when the wash is complete then do the following.....Call for a repairman to replace the tube springs and bottom ring. Please let me know what you think or do.

[@Bunkysworkshop]

What washer do you like the most? Speed Queen or Maytag ?

[@yambo59]

The new Speed Queens are much better than current Maytags. Maytag used to be top of the line, but now its no better than any of the other HE washers, in fact its made by Whirlpool, also junk. Speed Queen is made by Alliance laundry systems, they specialize in commercial laundry equipment and have the best warranty in the business. I have one and would buy another one in a heartbeat if needed.

[@GNX157]

yambo59 I have a Maytag from 2001. The transmission went. I got a SQ to replace it but I kept the Maytag and was going to repair it. Is my model year from an era when Maytag was good?

[@carbonblack1002]

IT IS PRETTY DIECENT.

[@Joemil271]

How do you make it work with lid open

[@seanschulz7373]

Are you using the TR5? If so, my appliance dealer showed me the cause. The machine goes into a "pause" state when too many buttons with conflicting commands occur. Just wait a few minutes and it will reset by itself.

[@IAmNotAFunguy]

I'm going to guess you'll never make a video of the washer on the Al Gore Cycle?

[@EmersonCollie]

+IAmNotAFunguy LOL Al Gore doesn't even use the Al Gore Cycle.. But he wants people like YOU and me to use that Cycle. He want us to drive around in an electric car while he fly's around in his private jet.

[@HarleyBadger]

+IAmNotAFunguy Actually I am going to make two more.. the Eco cycle and the Delicates cycle.

[@HarleyBadger]

+IAmNotAFunguy Check for the Al Gore cycle.. just uploading now. Not only did it STILL WORK as intended, I used a Queen-sized comforter to demonstrate.. and the comforter said "large-capacity commercial machine ONLY" and it filled the washer about 3/4 full is all.

[@yambo59]

I've also found Speed Queen is the only real high quality US top load washing machine still being made. I have a 40 year old GE heavy duty Filter flo and its really built well and still runs great. But the outer wash tub is rusting out and when that goes its all she wrote as there are no replacements unless you luck into a good used one. So I feel theres a new Speed Queen in my future. I really cant afford it as they are expensive, but I would be a fool to spend $500 on the throw away junk theyre passing off as washers now. Even Maytag is junk, I went and looked at everything and none have the warranty and build quality of the Speed Queen. At my age it will be the last washer I ever buy.

[@debmuhlestein]

yambo59 I loved my filterflo washer! I still have it sitting under the patio hoping to find a way to fix it! The tub is leaking around the center agitator & my hubby (mechanical engineer) said it can't be repaired by typical repair & needs to be replaced, probably the cost of a new washer, if they even sell the tubs anymore. SAD DAY when I had to haul it out of the house! Best washer ever in my opinion!

[@yambo59]

You cant get the tubs, but you may not need the tub, could be a seal or other piece. ive seen the seals and hub parts on ebay - I replaced the lower oil seal in my transmission with a seal I found on ebay. theres still NOS parts floating around online if you know the original GE part numbers - I have pretty much all the main ones if you want some info.

[@Floridarailz]

You did the right thing

[@fargeeks]

Do not buy a washer that doesn't have a agitator, otherwise get the lg top loader with the 8 bumbs impeller, because that washer can fill up much more, and if you dont overload it then what it can do is turnover your clothes inward, but its definitely not gonna flop your clothes around like ragdolls

[@markomib]

your statement is just flat out false. i know from my own experience, our front load LG steam series does a great job and i can do a load of laundry in 15 minutes. now - we are not farmers or lumberjacks, maybe there are various sets of data that when included would make a front load not as good as an agitator - but to flat out say all washers without agitators are junk, is just to be wrong and proud of it. Millions and millions of people use them every day. so include the special data that means that FOR YOU, you believe you need an agitator to get the job done. i'm considering getting speed queen for our rental properties as 1. they seem to be built better and 2. they're not very sexy so i am thinking may not have to worry as much about people trying to move them out when they go.

[@jeanierides2232]

OMG the washers at Lowes and Home Depot are junk. Don't be memorized by the colored plastic and music, Speed Queen is the only company today building washers that will last and get your clothes clean. If you have to have a fancy front loader with bells and whistles, spend the coin and go Meile.

[@yambo59]

That was my first impression also when I looked at new washers for the first time a couple months ago--junk. Im no engineer but all one has to do is look at the marked difference in overall build quality and what passes for an "agitator" along with the comically low water level to see how the govt. regs have forced them to resort to selling these junk machines as "high efficiency innovations". Im curious how this will play out in a few more years after a larger number of consumers realize they have been scammed after having to buy two or three of these HE junk piles inside of ten or less years. Then to make matters worse, they'll also realize theres almost no real quality washers left, and the SQ washers aren't cheap either, there are no $400 speed queens-lol but theres plenty of $300 HE washers at your local box store, buy two on sale while youre there and save time, youll be needing them--lol--Or yes, get a Speed Queen.

All these new washing machines without the classic agitator in the middle replaced with the new "impeller" but the newer machines seem like they barley wash the clothes. Even though speed queen is not really HE it still cleans clothes more efficiently then the new washing machines plus they seem to last longer because my friend had a newer HE washing machine and due to imbalance it tore up the wash drum. The machine was suppose to stop the load from spinning but it failed to do so and broke it. Now he has a speed queen lel

[@HarleyBadger]

Ha! yup, they don't clean very well, in fact, some of the newer ones barely even get the clothes wet. Wet clothes tumbling around just aren't the same as them being submerged in detergent water.

[@opmike343]

Every new HE washer we've tried has been absolute garbage. Tried a Samsung front load and another top load model. The front load was the worst as if you left it to its own devices, it would just tumble damp clothes. Towels were even worse, as I'd stop it mid cycle, and some of them would actually have dry spots. It's a joke.

I'm disappointed to see that at the spray rinse feature comes in too early (11:35). Speed Queen needs to reprogram their machines so that the spray rinse feature starts when all of the water is actually spun out and the machine is at top spin speed.

[@HowsaBowsaYowsa]

That's how it works on my AWN432 machine. Only after all the water is drained and the tub is spinning fast does the spray rinse kick in.

[@Sharkie626]

By that point of the spray rinse, the water is being held outside the clothing and along the outer tub, even if not fully drained yet. The suds removal is quite effective. It also lasts 50 seconds, something no modern machine does today!

I think it has to with incase too much suds is produced then it can remove it instead of suds locking .

I agree I have a 2016 9 series and it does come on too early on the non-digital models comes on later after all the water has drained the tub.

The new redesigned 2018 Speed Queen washers are NOTHING like the 1 here in this video. DO NOT buy a SQ washer that was manufactured after 2017! They do NOT clean laundry.... they are terrible!! The 2017 SQ washers & those manufactured before 2018 are just like the 1 on this vid, they are great!!

[@fargeeks]

They have the newer tr series washers which still uses the same method of washing like the 2018 did And the tc5 seems to be the only washer currently in their line of top load products that uses old school agitation

@@fargeeks Any authorized Speed Queen dealer/store can special order the TC5. Just tell the SQ store employee that you want to special order the TC5 if they do not carry it in-stock. They can get you one in a few days!

[@websurfin9575]

@@fargeeks Actually, the coin-op/laundromat models have a stainless-steel tub that's a bit smaller than the home-style SQ stainless-steel tubs.

How?! It's a WASHER video. Everyone can make videos of a washer. Just cause they have the same washer and they are filming the same cycle does NOT mean it is copyright.
