Hard to tell what is causing the sound you are hearing without hearing it. But it is unlikely that anything is seriously wrong, and you have a 3 year warranty so I would not worry. If it is anything serious it will likely get progressively get worse and if it is just a minor squeak as it is agitating, oh well. SQ TL washers are sturdy, durable but somewhat crude machines and they are far from silent in operation.
A F&P washer while a newer design and more polished machine do not hold up well in really heavy use situations, so I dough that it would be a great choice for you. Your next best bet would probably be a SQ Front Load washer, but these certainly are not silent in operation either. |

I read on another thread here about the noise, and it was recommended there to oil the metal. What kind of oil should be used? Thanks |
