Commercial coin operated washing machine

[Gill Bates]

I,ve decided to buy a commercial coin operated washing machine.
I,ve priced one (new) at $2000.

Does anyone have any comments about brands or other things to watch out for or avoid.

[ the previous washing machine has died and i,ve told the tennents , they will have to pay for the washing machine ]

Can't claim to be a washing machine guru, but two things I have heard (more than once) are:

- Fisher and Paykel is a very good brand

- be wary of WM's that have fully electronic controls (= possible expensive repair if it goes bung).

Theres only 2 brands that you need to know:

Maytag and Speed Queen.

They are the last word in commercial coin opertated machines.
Both American made and will go forever.

Well,

I totally agree with brains... hehe

Maytag are definately the Can't-kill-em trucks of washing machines.

Hi Gill,
What sort did you finally choose & how is it working out? Are the tenants happy & is it used often & is it paying for itself?
