You could take look at Speed Queen. I went for their TC5 machine recently. No lid lock, real deep fill option, etc. It's a $500+ premium over what you can get from Samsung (or anything at Big Box for that matter), but I think it's worth it to have a proper machine that can actually be serviced.


Can't get seem to get SQ where I am, but currently looking at older GE/whirlpool models with minimal or at least modular electronics - anything from before the Great Enshittening.

I can't figure out if any new models are modular/repairable and built to last, or just trading on old reputation, but actually the same disposable garbage as everyone else.


You'll have to shop at a boutique or commercial outlet to find this stuff if you are in the domestic U.S.

Home Depot/Best Buy/Lowes/Conns/etc will only sell you plastic shit these days.

You have to go to their website and search. Mine had to be shipped from a warehouse 2 hours away and I live right next to Houston.
