Speed Queen has earned a reputation as one of the most trusted names in laundry, delivering industrial-strength reliability to both laundromats and households. With over 100 years of experience in manufacturing top-tier laundry equipment, Speed Queen is recognized for producing washers and dryers that are built to handle the demands of everyday life—and then some. Designed for long-term use and optimal performance, Speed Queen appliances are preferred by families and commercial users who demand exceptional results, cycle after cycle.

Speed Queen’s product lineup includes top load and front load washers, dryers, and stacked laundry units, each built with rugged components and tested to endure the equivalent of 25 years of use in the average home. These machines are engineered in the U.S. with a focus on metal parts over plastic, powerful motors, and commercial-grade suspension systems, ensuring stability and reliability even with heavy, frequent loads.

A defining feature of Speed Queen appliances is their exceptional wash quality. Their washers use patented Perfect Wash™ systems to deliver deep, thorough cleaning while being gentle on fabrics. Dryers are equipped with commercial-grade heating elements and moisture sensors to ensure efficient, even drying with less wear on clothes. Many models are also equipped with Speed Cycle settings for faster wash and dry times without compromising cleanliness.

For those who value performance over frills, Speed Queen machines offer practical, powerful solutions that get the job done—without the gimmicks.

Durability is at the heart of Speed Queen’s identity. Their laundry equipment undergoes rigorous testing—up to 10,400 wash cycles—to ensure long-term resilience in the face of daily use. This reputation for dependability makes Speed Queen a favorite not only among homeowners, but also property managers, laundromat operators, and military facilities that require appliances built to last.

The brand is also committed to energy efficiency, with many models meeting or exceeding ENERGY STAR® standards. Advanced moisture sensing, precision water levels, and fast cycle times all contribute to lower utility usage and operational costs—without compromising performance.

Speed Queen’s legendary status is reinforced by its industry-leading warranties, often offering three-, five-, or even seven-year coverage—a bold statement of confidence in their products’ longevity and reliability. Their strong support network and commitment to customer satisfaction ensure a smooth ownership experience from installation to long-term use.
