That is a nice matching set and probably will not last long. If you think you can use it then get it. That washer allows you to control the water level which is a very nice bonus. | ||

I've used the same set when I was living up at the cascades. Awesome machines! It's what first got me introduced to Speed Queen:) I wish these were still being made because they're my all time favorite from SQ. But for what the seller is offering for that set, I'd have to think about it. Although I wouldn't rule it out entirely.

Kenny, I agree that these are 10 or so years old. When I bought my SQ pair in 2010, I bought the next up for both the washer and the dryer. The nicer washer gave me an optional second rinse, and the dryer gave me a light in the drum and an end-of-cycle signal. I bought a gas dryer and purchased the nicer model for specific reasons. The dryer was out of stock and so I had to wait for it. When it was delivered, it was the BOL model in this advertisement. When I complained that they brought out the incorrect dryer, the fellow's response was "well you wanted a gas dryer!" This was the same man who sold me the pair in the store, and was well aware of the comments I made regarding the shortcomings of the BOL model. After much runaround and a consultation with the owner of the store, it was decided that I could keep and use the BOL model until the 'correct' model showed up, at which time they would take the BOL model back and sell it as used/demonstrator. In short, I was more than slightly put out with how the transaction worked. This was at Castleberry's in Chamblee, GA.

Bit the bullet and bought a new SQ. My friend, who I've been dealing with on trade ins for about 25 years, is a SQ dealer, among other things. A little over $1100.00 got us this one, out the door.

No worries I told her that the Maytag daily drivers are following us to the new house. This one, and the matching dryer. She wanted a new washer, had to talk her into the Queen, she wanted a frontloader.
