There are only two brands to look at if you want longetivity (+25 years). Maytag Commercial and Speed Queen. Both are made with commercial parts.

Both come with 5 year warranties, Speed Queen is all metal in its internals, and the Speed Queen homeowner models have the same internals as their commercial units.

If your water conscious Both have an Eco mode to comply with US regulations.

We have had our Speed Queen front loader washer and dryer going on 10 years, with no problems. They replaced a piece of junk Frigidaire Neptune set that were constantly breaking down after year three. We also saw no difference in wash quality from the Frigidaire or the Speed Queen.

While you may find the Maytag Commercial line in the big box stores, make sure it is the model with the 5 year warranty and not the cheaper made 1 year warranty. Speed Queen can only be found at independent appliance dealers.
