Hopefully this video works. Ignore the clicking, there was a hoodie with a zipper that was making noise. CLICK HERE TO GO TO Keith's LINK |

Hi Keith , We have not had this problem with these washers, I would get it checked out since it happens with some frequency.
Unless you are having the same problem over and over this is certainly not a lemon and should not be exchanged, Quality products are designed to be repaired, fortunately you have a good dealer available let them figure out what is wrong.
PS, I am loving our new SQ Stainless Steel FL washer I got a month ago, even though we sell a lot of SQ TL washers I can not imagine why any washer enthusiast would buy anything but a FL washer. This SQ FL washer is so well built and easy to get into when service will be necessary. I have never seen another FL washer that was as easy to work on since the 3-belt WH machines, the only problem with 3-belt WHs were terrible construction and durability.

Hi Keith, We have had no mechanical problems at all with the TR series, We have seen a few bad PTS switches on the early versions [ SQ switched to a touch type switch, SQ used the same PTS switch on FL models for more than 15 years and we saw a few of them fail as well ] We have seen a few lid locks, drain pumps and main motor board failures, but overall it is a very reliable washer so far.
I would not worry about the noise your machine is making nearly all washers make some noises, if it persists and it brothers you I would ask them to change the belt in a year or so after the covid problem gets better it is not likely worth risking your health or the techs health when the washer is working fine.
Hi Pink, The SQ FL model I bought is the same as the white models except the entire cabinet is made of real non-magnet Stainless Steel, The matching SS dryer would have a real SS drum and rear Bulkhead [ I did not buy the dryer ]
This FL washer is not designed to stack a dryer on top, SQ sells a great interpreted stack model that has the same capacity and features if you need a stacked model.
