I would keep that as long as possible, or find a somewhat newer one close to it for a replacement.....
those Whirlpool/Kenmore designs dry like no other, almost perfect wrinkle free results from every load....'Soft Heat' that is only found on these machines gives you those great results....like no other granted you may want a match to your speed queen... |

helpful hints.......
deactivating the lids switch........ first, and the only thing you need is a clothes pin......easy on, and easy off.....no one will ever know..... at the back of your machine, just above the drain hose, with the lid closed, slide the clothes pin over that silver clip.....from now on, it will operate with the lid open......easy as pie!......just remove it should a service tech ever have to come out.....just be careful should kids/toddlers be around the machine while its working....

apple and oranges I'm afraid as far as the model you chose and options available....
if you chose the TOL model (I think that 542) with speed selector, that would have gave you unlimited variable of options.....you could have selected/mixed speeds to any cycle...second rinse option as well....checking the website, seems this is the only model for mechanical controls, everything else is digital.... many of us adjusted our water level to give a full level wash... but like you said, just adapt to what you have to work with, and you should do fine... congrats just the same on your new purchase.....definitely dependable |
