We have it, and it's awesome—huge loads done in 35 minutes! And, maybe because we replaced an older machine, we never noticed any water use difference (and use cold for everything).

So, Dan, if you're looking for the classically-built Speed Queen, you'll be looking for the TC5. It still uses a digital panel rather than analogue knobs, but the machine itself is the bulletproof one SQ built its reputation on.

Think,

The TC-5 is the one we are looking at and is in stock. It does use knobs and has no digital readout panel that I can see and that is what we want. Also has no locking cover which is another feature my wife wants.

Thanks!

Dan
