I have a more recent Speed Queen (2014) and would tend to agree. They all have the baked enamel or powder coat finish instead of the old porcelain finish that they all used to have. I read an article some years ago and they pointed out that all appliances have gotten cheaper (in general build quality) because 'white goods' have lagged price increases of all other goods in the economy. A washer today is about the same price as 35-40 years ago and hasn't adjusted for inflation. I had a lower-middle of the road Whirlpool dishwasher from 1998 that gave out in 2017. I bought a new Bosch after looking around and one thing I noticed was practically none had a garbage grinder anymore (for noise they said). Also, the first thing the salesman told me after I told him about my Whirlpool was 'You'll NEVER get 20 years out of any of these. You'll be lucky if you get 10 years." And that was all of them including the premium brands. One last thing, a friend of mine bought a new Maytag in 1993 (which is a REAL Maytag made in Newton, Iowa) from a box store. It's still going strong and survived 2 of his kids doing all of their college laundry without 1 part replaced. He was going to leave it in his last house when it sold but the new owners didn't want it. Lucky him.

@@vincemajestyk9497 they sure are. I’ve owned my speed queen for five years now and so far I’ve had zero issues.

Honesty, my one complaint just by looks is they use that dumb single action agitator. I believe it's the GTW430 or something similar that use a dual action agitator. I don't understand why they didn't put that in this. Would've made it better. It for sure won't go head to head against speed queen but it seems ok. I own a GTW680 washer and it works very well for what it is. If they are going to advertise it as a commercial washer they should at least upgrade everything. 200$ says that suspension is exactly like the one in my gtw680, which means its going to be very flimsy. It'll hold the drum but it'll make any out of balance load or shaky pin that much more shaky and loud. Which brings me to my last point. That motor is probably the same one used in all their top load washers. Which means its going to be loud and sound on like it's on the brink of death.

Have you tried out this machine yet? I picked one up 2 months ago...only complaint is I've had 2 unbalanced loads so far with medium size loads. Is this normal?

GE is notorious for unbalancing, as are many washers with agitators. Just be careful when loading yr clothes, have a nice even distribution and never overload. This won't solve the problem, but it will reduce it greatly.

@@yervandgevorgyan2323 the only answer I have found is to run 'high' or 'max' water. If you run on auto make sure the load is relatively small. All my 'unbalanced' loads happened in auto setting.

Purchased this model after my Maytag went to crap after a little more than 3 years (2 person household) This unit was only $50 more than the Maytag and a much better warranty and larger capacity than the Speed Queen.

I don’t trust GE anymore . I came from a home where my parents purchased all GE appliances… starting in the 1950’s thru the 1980’s … when GE/Hotpoint was all American and known for quality products . It’s all changed now … for the worst !!!

Not even close dude. I think the Speed Queen will run circles around that POS GE washer. I have a GE washer and I absolutely hate it. It does a lousy job at cleaning my work clothes, it doesn’t use enough water, the agitator is very wimpy, pieces of the upper plastic have disintegrated over time, and it is now making noises on spin. I’ve owned it for 7 years and I’d say it’s almost gone. I’m buying a Speed Queen when the time comes. Plus the Speed Queen is made in the USA.

... went and looked at the GE and the Speed Queen side by side. Hands down , the Speed Queen wins. If you can, go to a store that sells both and compare.
