Fascinating We'd had discussions amongst our coffee klatch for some time that--for one manufacturer--the ability to produce a machine that opted out of the eco-rama and appealed instead to people who wanted something that performed well could be a viable niche. Not for everyone, but for someone.
I hope this strategy continues to go well for Speed Queen; they have demonstrated admirable moxie. | ||

If you want a heated version-make it so the machine can run from 240V-this would help the heater coil!120V heater coils would take too long to heat the water.If home type major power tools and other appliances can run from 240V--why not the washer? | ||

Too bad SQ isn't perusing this site. Those of us who truly understand front load laundry process and what's required (our European bretheren fully understand) supplemental heater is absolutely required for optimum cleaning. I've not had to pretreat a stain since I got my Duet. I just set controls and options and all are dealt with. Even Bendix recognized this with their Magic Heater. | ||

pros and cons
a few questions......
why does it have to be 220 power?.....110 works fine for a dishwasher to heat water....and were only talking 3 to 5 gallons, not like its a TLer with 20+ gallons I have the water heater set for 160.....purge the line first...and measured the temp of the wash water as it drains, there was a 5 degree temp drop from a cold start machine/clothes, after a 15 minute wash..... I was hoping for a higher temp from these heaters, a close boil wash....unfortunate for me, this heater would never come on..... and granted these would really apply to people who don't pay attention to laundry or purging a line, and info about dubbed down temps...or have their water heater set to a lower temp about the best I have come across was the machine that only had a cold water fill, and heated the water as the cycle progressed, there by treating the stains as the temps raised up.... | ||
