Is it time to replace your laundry equipment?
If your washers and dryers are old and outdated, they’re likely costing you more and making you less.
Excluding variables such as frequency of use, general condition, number of repairs and maintenance), typical peak lifetimes of laundry equipment are as follows:
- Top or front load washer: 5-7 years
- Washer-extractors: 12-15 years
- Tumble dryers: 12-15 years

MAXIMIZE PROFITABILITY
New Speed Queen laundry machines do more than save you money – they make you money.
INCREASE PRICES
Customers expect to pay more for newer equipment with updated features. Owners can reasonably expect to charge 10-20%† more for new equipment of similar capacity.
Example with 1 10 kg washer-extractor:
- €0.48 average price increase per cycle*
- 3.5 cycles per day
- 365 days per year
= €613.20 added profit per year per washer-extractor
EFFICIENT TUMBLE DRYERS
Speed Queen tumble dryers and stack tumble dryers maximize profit and efficiency by:
- Increasing productivity, your profit stream and customer satisfaction.
- Reducing your minutes per quarter while keeping your revenue the same, which also makes customers happy and increases turns per day.
- Providing faster dry times and better performance, which help customers get in and out of your store quicker, and makes your store a premium laundry destination.
- Maximizing capacity per square foot of space with stack tumble dryers.
MORE PROFITABLE. MORE AFFORDABLE
The up-front cost of new washers and dryers is one of the biggest hurdles laundry room owners face when renewing their equipment. That’s the reason why Speed Queen® Financial Services offers personalized plans that fit your budget.
Example with 8 10kg washer-extractors:
- €1,032.33 average monthly utility savings and added revenue*
- €825.69 average monthly payment
= €476.64 profit per month
