Speed Queen was founded in 1908 by Joe Barlow and John Seelig, who owned a hardware store in Ripon, WI.
The owners purchased several hand-powered washing machines and modified them to be more powerful and more efficient. From the very beginning, these entrepreneurs were focused on delivering better products and meeting the needs of customers.
Today, more than a century later, Speed Queen is still based in Ripon, makes its appliances in the United States, and is committed to producing durable products that last.
Choose Speed Queen if you want a heavy-duty washer in your house. Take home a commercial-grade appliance that was designed for the residential market.

Introduction to the Speed Queen Front Load Washer
As you get to know your Speed Queen front load washer options, you will see that every feature is designed with durability and performance in mind.
You can quickly choose your cycle and feel confident that your clothes will come out clean. The primary focus of this guide will be the Speed Queen FF7 models, which are front-load washers that are designed for pet owners and people in a hurry.
