loading Whirlpool. Love them. Has a detergent dispenser that you fill and it runs about 10 loads. Nice not to have to fill each time. Liked the LG sets as they had easier access to front where the “change cup” is but dryer venting wouldn't work for my set up...
Had a dishwasher repair out and he recommends Speed Queen. Says he never has to work on them!

Maytag
 
I need a new dryer for a tenant. I talked with a teacher for a class for appliance repairman and was told not to buy Samsung. I think that would apply to washers too. The teacher said to buy Speed Queen, so I am looking. The dryer the tenant has is a Kenmore, and is mechanical (repairable) rather than computerized, it has been repaired a few times, but not drying well. My set is Maytag, mechanical, and about 20 years old. Love them, still working, only one repair. So I think, even though it is now made by Whirlpool, I will get a Maytag dryer, and later a washer with all your info in mind for the tenant. Thanks for the reviews!

You might try cleaning out the vent of the dryer. My dryer wasn't working well at all when the repairman suggested cleaning the vent, and it started drying like new again.

not a problem for many I guess, but try reaching the bottom of the tub when you are out shopping. Picture that last sock or hanky down there. I can't reach the bottom of the tub with my feet still on the floor...something to think about. Let us know what you get!
