Speed Queen Appliances Company Background

With the invention of the White Cloud washer by Joe Barlow and John Seelig in Ripon, Wisconsin, the Speed Queen legacy has stood for durability, dependability and convenience. Barlow and Seelig had purchased several hand-powered washing machines from a company in Kansas City, Missouri. After experimenting with the washing machines they had built, the inventors were successful in devising a way to increase the machine's efficiency through high speed gearing. The partners then purchased the manufacturing rights from the company in Kansas City, and Barlow & Seelig Manufacturing was born. The company initially produced a limited amount of washers named the "White Cloud" and it wasn't until 1928 that the brand name became Speed Queen. Speed Queen strives to provide its customers with reliable products backed by superior customer service. Whilst Speed Queen is an American company, they keep in mind the unique needs of their Australian consumers.

With over one hundred years producing both consumer and commercial washing machines and equipment, Speed Queen brings you sturdy appliances with no-nonsense design and performance based construction. Speed Queen appliances will get your clothing cleaner - what else would you expect from a company that only does laundry?

With a Speed Queen top-loading washer you have the durability of a commercial washer in your home. With commercial quality components like a stainless steel tub, a commercial grade galvanised steel cabinet and heavy duty motor - standard in Speed Queen washers - you'll get long lasting dependability in a washer that delivers superior cleaning results. An automatic balancing system guarantees that the washing tub never gets knocked out of alignment by an errant load, while a Hush Pak guarantees the quietest wash possible. Bleach and fabric softener dispensers allow you to fill up your machine and let it run so you can multitask. Two spin speeds, an extra rinse switch and a variable water level selector let you have precise control over how you wash, ensuring a perfect clean load every time. Fill hoses are included with your washer, meaning you can set up out of the box easier.

Speed Queen dryers continue the tradition of quality, durable construction and ease of use. A roomy 200L capacity cylinder and large door opening make it easy to toss in a load, whilst the galvanised drum means durability to last through years of service. A reversible door makes placing your dryer anywhere in your home incredibly convenient and an upfront secured lint filter makes cleaning your dryer simple. An adjustable end of cycle buzzer lets you manage your time more effectively and an extended tumble option will let you dry your delicates more slowly, preserving your clothing and letting you do your laundry at your own pace. A cylinder light ensures you can see everything inside your Speed Queen dryer and a heavy duty 220 cm exhaust fan and gas drying ensures your laundry gets a perfect dry every time.

With Speed Queen you know you'll be purchasing a dependable, durable washer or dryer, and with Appliances Online, you know you'll be shopping with confidence. Our guaranteed lowest prices everyday along with our 7 day customer service support makes it easy for you to make the right decision.

5 star Even though energy rating is not high the washing time is considerably shorter than my old (6 years old) Hoover washer. Machine appears to do a better wash. All in all very happy with the appliance.

4 star Washing big loads beautifully. Have noticed the spin cycle leaves the clothes a little less dry though. I expect many years of faithful service from this machine just like my old one delivered for 15 years.

5 starWe have been using this unit for six months now and it has been awesome even though I hate doing the washing, it's much better than the old machine, you can really see the difference in quality of operation. Our old machine, a G.E. lasted 16 years but never did it perform as well as the speed queen.

5 star The Speed Queen replaced our twenty year old one of the same make, which had not required attention until it was on its deathbed. We are hoping for the same good run for the new one, which is excellent. The spin dry cycle does an admirable job, with all of the water removed, and there is no trace of lint. It is a solid machine (no plastic bits), and no fussy electronics, just good old-fashoned knobs.

Review for: 6.5kg Top Load Speed Queen Washing Machine AWN552SN
5 star I love it and definitely feel it was worth spending more than the cost of an average washing machine. This is not an average machine. I consider it to be superior. My four washing machine 'desirables' are all present.
1. The washes come out clean.
2.The washing cycles are fast.
3.There is no lint left on the clothes
4. The clothes are not tangled.

5 star I have actually just replaced my washing machine with the same model that I purchased back in 2000. Hopefully the updated model gives the same service. It is a heavy duty machine - my washing machine runs an average of 35 loads per week.

Review for: 6.5kg Top Load Speed Queen Washing Machine AWN552SN
5 starI AM IN LOVE WITH MY NEW WASHING MACHINE! It is fantastic and washes the clothes beatifully! I will never buy another brand of washing machine again. It my appear basic to the eye, but it washes like no other washing machine has washed before, and if there are less gadgets, then less things can go wrong. The spin cycle is a little loud, but what do you expect from an industrial grade washing machine. 100% Happy!

Review for: 9kg Speed Queen Dryer ADE3TR
5 star We haven't received an electricity bill yet but we love the dryer. I will actually be surprised if it's running costs are very much more expensive because we don't use it any more than the old 6.5kg electronic one we had - in fact, where 90mins in the old dryer would dry a load of towels for instance, this new Speed Queen only takes 60mins at most. It has simple cycles, doesn't play music when it's turned on, has a really effective lint collector that's so easy to clean it's silly and, it's gentle on the clothes. The only problem was the extra cost to have it's own power circuit wired in by an electrician. We haven't had it vented either but that would be an extra cost as well if we decide to. We are very happy with it and it's doing exactly what we bought it for - nothing more and nothing less.

5 starMy daughter had used appliances online for her white goods and had always raved on about them so naturally when my washing machine died she made the call on my behalf. Not only did I receive my washing machine the very next day I got it for the lowest price. My daughter and I highly recommend Appliances Online. The exceptional service, product and lowest prices will always keep us coming back. Thank you Appliances Online.

5 starThis is the second time I have shopped with Appliances Online. The price was competitive, service very good and the delivery was made on time and machine fully connected competently. The old appliance was taken away without any fuss. I will definitely be checking out this company for any of my appliance purchases in the future.
