Exact questions
Questions that only have an answer for the Speed Queen TR7 top-load washer
Is the Speed Queen TR7 worth it over the TR5 or TR3 for repairs?+
The three are the same Perfect Wash machine, so repair and troubleshooting are identical — the TR7's advantage is the longer 7-year warranty and extra features, which means more of any repair is covered for longer. If reliability and coverage are the priority, that warranty is the main reason to choose the TR7; the underlying machine you are servicing is the same.
