I need to purchase a new washer & dryer set and would like to purchase; MADE IN THE USA
Set needing to be replaced is; Maytag, it lasted " 8 yrs." for 2 people, hubby did multiple repairs.
I've had 3 sets of Whirlpool, 1 set GE, 2 sets Maytag in " 42 yrs." This needs to be the Last, I hope !
ALL RECOMMENDATIONS APPRECIATED
Thus far; SPEED QUEEN sounds good in " Print "

My Maytag is 22 years old, still running for 6 people?
Not sure what's actually made in the USA these days? Mine was probably made in Galesburg before they closed...or were they making refrigerators in that plant?

Finally found what I wanted up at Shaw's. Speed Queen top loader commercial, something like 750 bucks, but the same thing as the laundromats get, less the coin slot. Doesn't have 47 different cycles, just the ones you need. Don't need a dryer just yet, but I suspect I will go up there and ask for the mate to this one.... When it is time.

And that's for free!

Don't forget Christoff's Appliance, too. When we went appliance shopping recently, he was very knowledgeable about everything he showed us and knew what was made where. We ended up buying at Shaw that time around because I decided to stick with the same brand we were replacing. Two good choices in town to shop at.
As far as new washer/dryer, I'll be watching this thread because we will most likely be in the market soon for a new set. Refrigerator, too. Ugh.

Let's just say I got better advice at Shaw's and leave it at that.

I buy all appliances at Shaw's. Unbelievable service and prices aren't that much more than big box. I recently bought a stove,frig and two window air conditioners from them. I researched the best make/model through reviews for them online before I even went to the store. I then went to Shaw's and asked if he had those models available. He said no, but looked them up and said he would have all of them in 2 days at a price that was right in line with what was suggested online for the stove and frig and lower for the air conditioners. I never left town and got what I wanted! They delivered and set up everything at no additional charge.
A few years back, an upright freezer I bought from them just quit after about 6 months. I called them. Clarence said they would plug one in at the store right away. He said don't open my freezer. It was located in my garage. While I was at work, they brought the new freezer and switched out all of my food in the freezer to the new one. I got home and everything was good! No charge of any kind! It's been over 6 years, now, and never another freezer problem. Try to get service like that from a big box store!
