The rollover on that machine is INSANE!
This model does an excellent job of cleaning clothes. I had this model. I bought it new and gave it to my mother. She needed a new washer desperately. She loved it. I wish that I had a Speed Queen today.
1995: they will have flying cars in 2020. 2020: me watching about a 1978 US washing machine...and i have never even been to US...oh well... *grabs some snacks *
Just goes to show that vintage washers do a better job at removing dirt than most modern washers do period!
that's why almost everything now. When things were made in america.
New washers work just as well while using less of everything and some are made in the USA. Now, will a new washer outlast the old? Probably not, but 10 years the new ones last on average is ok.
nsbioy Oh ok try doing the same test on a 2018 speed queen
@@khalilt6508 that one was a real dud. My guess is that not everything old was well made either. We just see the survivors.
A trick : watch movies at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching loads of movies these days.
I’m showing my age because I love the machine. Nothing complicated just ordinary❤️👍😊
I love Speed Queen's solid tubs, and their agitator design has the right amount of roll over to rubbing action.
What a great washing action! What we all want now, in a washer!
The spin cycle is really amazing too. They named it right. It's not called a Speed Queen for nothing.
Good start to the new year with a #LORAINFURNTURE&Appliance video
Can’t wait for new vintage Tide ketchup stain wash!
I have been waiting for the vintage Tide ketchup test, so THANK YOU
If I didn't get a Maytag washer/dryer set I would have went with the Speed Queen TC5000 series.
Now that is the real washing machine knowing what it's doing, clean, clean clean. :D
My grandmother owns a Speed Queen dryer, still uses it too
love those machine used to have one wish have my bussiness to redo back time
A New Year for an old washer!
This was in many a laundromat in the mid 70s.
Aggressive but love that turnover. Happy new Year.
That Tide pod was a crazy amount of suds
WOWWEE washer sure fills up fast
it's sped up! took me 5 videos to realize lol
here I am watching a washing machine that 42 years old and running like a charm and LG washer lasted 5 years
WOW that one Tide POD sure did foam up for an HE detergent. That's not good. It does that in my front loader if I do not have enough laundry or something like that. It will suds lock the crap out of it
add enough water to an HE detergent and it will still foam. Tide for some reason gets very foamy.
@Albert Carello I have really hard water. Tide PODs are bad about sudsing up if you dont have enough laundry with them. I just bought a new Speed Queen and if it is a small load in it, it does the same thing. I've switched back to powder Tide and for my roommate Persil Deep Clean intense fresh. Now that Persil is SUPER sudsy
Mine too but it’s a whirlpool from loader and it automatically takes care of the suds lock.
Those solid-tub Speed Queen washers were the very BEST! We had one of those with a stainless-steel tub (extra-large capacity) & it was built like a tank! Did a great job of cleaning very dirty laundry! Many people in our family had the solid-tub SQ washer. Regrettable that they stopped manufacturing those solid-tub SQ washers! Why did Speed Queen stop making that design of washing-machine... does anyone know?
Yes! When Raytheon bought Speed Queen in 1978 Raytheon had redesigned the washer to meet energy saving standards at the time and and also the new design also better safety standards which has "insta-matic" brakes that stop the washer when the lid is opened during operation and if it is spinning the tub comes to a complete "dead" stop in less than 3 seconds as opposed to a locking lid that at the time did meet 1971 U.L. safety standards, but unless the "safety" system was maintained it was NOT "FOOL-PROFF" and the lawsuits that Speed Queen had gotten due to injury lawsuits cost McGraw-Edison and McGraw-Edison sold Speed Queen and in 1979 the "new" Speed Queen's were Raytheon designed machines. Speed Queen just like any manufacture of a "product" is NOT IMMUNE for potential liability lawsuits. The same that had happened with Westinghouse and Westinghouse sold there appliance business to White Consolidated in 1976. General Motors sold off Frigidaire to WCI in 1978 as well.
Also, McGraw-Edison at the time was selling off there business and by 1982 McGraw-Edison was out of business.
But look on the "bright" side a 40+ year old Speed Queen washer and dryer you CAN STILL get some replacement parts for these machines today(2021)
@@TedsGMC Amazing info.... thanks!
I don't think you could have a gigantic capacity solid tub in a washer today without making the dimensions of the washer larger.
Today's pathetic pumps in washers couldn't even handle the water thrown from this washer.
@@patcola7335 You are probably correct about that!
I want that washer
Nice washing
Looks like the 2017 machine did maybe just a tad better? But this one still outperformed the 2018 machine.
it's strange. It seems like the tc5 does better when it's overloaded compared to this one overloaded.
Nah this did way better than both those machines
@@terrorblossom4829 No it didn't.
It did tho
Happy New Year Eugene
10 seconds in and it already turned over the whole load
1978 ..... take me back
During the spin cycle, how does the water get out of a solid tub?
The water comes to the top and gets out of the tub because of the centrifugal force
@@denizkosar8234 just like the old fashioned fabric softener dispensers.
Everytime I see those red stained towels I shutter a bit lol.
Better than the unimatic

I never understood why manufacturers went to perf tubs, a solid tub uses less water because you are not filling up the outer tub.
Whirlpool was the first all the way back to the late 1940s with perf tub top load washers. Their first automatic was released in 1947 through Sears Kenmore. Much better at grit and sand and debris removal. Also the neutral drain kept clothes in the tub and didn't redeposit lint on the load like a spin drain could when it throws the water back onto the clothes while spinning. GE and Maytag did that to some degree.
That's quite a bit of suds for just one pod.
i am looking for a vintage washer/dryer set in mint condition
No
I'm going to guess the vintage tide did much better
Well, that video is up now, watch it
There is only one tide pod under 10 toahlas umm sorry I mean towels and the sudsing in the machine is super INSANE!!! XD!!! LOL!!!!😱😱😱 Oh and sorry about the towel word I know from Portuguese
and im from
Kuwait!!! 😉🇧🇷🇧🇷!!! (PHO SUS CANT FIND KUWAIT FLAG SRY!!!😠)
I've never seen a tide pod made that much suds. 🤔
When you do ketchup tests, do you just buy cheap Walmart towels, or do you just use old towels?
I use pretty good towels from amazon This one: amzn.to/2txRBfv
It's the powder and its chemical formula, not the washing machine, that does the washing.
Aren't they all complimentary? Neither is as effective without the other. Also, today’s progressive consumers demand less “toxic” detergents🙄.
Should have bought a good washer in the 70s, kept in the box to use these days when they sell crap.
You should have used hot water
The only thing this beautiful machine has in common with the Speed Queen trash from 2018 is the name. I wonder if they will ever forgive you for telling the truth.
This beautiful machine has absolutely nothing in common with ANY SQ built SINCE 1980. Mic drop have a nice day!!
Nah they'll never admit they were wrong. But I think Eugene doesn't care by now.
@@Sharkie626 for 2020, Alliance Laundry decided to bring back the 2018 series in the TR7, 5, and 3 series. They make 1 classic model, the TC5, which has the agitation of the 2017 series. I only found out about the crappy series being brought back, because Kirk Rivas tested a TR5 series. So Speed Queen didn't learn their lesson, and trying to otherwise force the TR series on customers by limiting choice on theTC series. For front loaders, they make one model now
Why don't you label this as ASMR content too? It will get lots of new hits
The suspense was killing me.....

Bad results itl washes too fast but our italian machines wash better but the washer works for 2 hours
No bleach are you insane?
Bleach???? .....are you insane? .....who uses bleach on clothes in the washing machine. Haven't you heard of 'Vanish' - it's a clothes specific stain remover that comes in liquid, gel or dry stick format (similar to a dry stick deodorant). Everyone uses this in the UK to get tough stains out of their clothes before washing them. You can get a type for wine, another type for grease from bike chains, one for ketchup etc. You don't need to wet the clothes first either, as they can be put on dry clothes, and then popped in the machine. Do they not have Vanish in the US?
Rob Tyman Of course they do. But in USA (like many countries) it’s common to use bleach in laundry. Just for whites, of course.
@@robtyman4281 every heavy duty detergent contains bleach in Germany, this is completely normal! if you want one without bleach, just buy color detergent, this does not contain bleach! We also have vanish oxi or prewash spray in Germany but you don't need that because of our detergent It contains bleach, There are also oxygen-based ones, we have many.
