Thanks, Martin Your response is priceless. You have given me the best laugh I've had all day!
A very timely post as I looked at the SQ's this very afternoon and have tenative plans to purchase one tomorrow. Probably will be a 412. If so, I can live with the wrinkles as almost everything goes into the dryer. Bethann's linens hang on the line and I've never known her to complain about wrinkles.

Did you give the clothing a good shake before hanging it on the rack? That alone removes a lot of the wrinkles. I find that the only clothing that needs to be ironed after being hung out are items made from 100% cotton. Things like polo shirts, t-shirts, dockers, etc. are just fine after line drying. | ||

no rudeness intended.......all one would be asking is to add 10 minutes of time to the cycle or your washing......no more than a basic extra rinse and spin so to speak, equal to run the clothes in a dryer for a few minutes and then place on a hanger.......I'm not asking to trade in the automatic for a wringer!......you have an issue were trying to help you work thru and resolve, by the simplest method
yes, time is of the essence for many, and although we do enjoy working on and playing with our machines.....there are days we want to get it done in a hurry.....thats why I have 6 machines hooked up......if I was single, I would have the whole week, waiting for a load to build to wash.....but reality, 2 homes, 5 autos, 5 dogs, hubby and 8 kids........its a wonder I have any hair left!.....Laundry---2 to 4 loads a day.....not to mention cleaning, dinner, dishes, homework, etc.....I look for anything that lightens my load | ||

SPEED QUEEN DRYERS Take it from someone that has had hundreds of dryers and has worked on thousands, get the Speed Queen, 2nd best would be any 29" dryers from WP. The 27" WP dryers while OK have never been nearly as good as thier 29" models. The 27" WPs are slower and build up much more lint inside and have far more fires in them. [ if anyone has a WP built 27" dryer be sure to disassemble and clean inside and below the lint filter every year or so] | ||

27" dryers
I agree with John on the 27" dryers. When I tear one down to recondition, the dryer is ALWAYS loaded with lint. Not one here or there, but every one. They are decent dryers, but they must be cleaned internally. The nice thing about the 27" is that they used teflon impregnated rollers so no need to oil them ever.

I still plan to buy the matching dryer. Since the laundry sits exposed in the kitchen (by design, not accidental), it's really important that the two appliances match (IMHO). So much so that, since the washer panel includes two rotary knobs, a rocker switch, and a timer (and there is a companion dryer with the exact setup), the dryer will have the same composition.
