New products perfect for stores where foundations aren’t an option
[Ripon, Wis. January 30, 2020] – Speed Queen®, the global leader in commercial laundry, introduced vended softmount washer-extractors to its already robust product lineup. The new models are offered in 20-, 30-, 40-, 55- and 70-pound capacities.“Our new softmount range presents the perfect replacement solutions for owners with existing dated softmount washers,” said Kathryn Rowen, general manager of the North American laundromat segment for Alliance Laundry Systems. “In addition, these new washer-extractors will help owners open stores in locations that weren’t previously options due to basements or uncertain floors.”
Speed Queen softmount washer-extractors come equipped with the new Quantum Touch control. The intuitive touchscreen control, launched less than a year ago, is already helping laundry owners increase profitability. Customer selection of profitable cycle modifiers has increased through its clearly defined on-screen prompts. Quantum Touch offers 11 modifier options, in addition to other revenue opportunities through time-of-day pricing and lucky cycles.
Programming ease and advanced machine diagnostics, completed on the machine’s touchscreen, further enhance and simplify the ownership experience.
“With the combination of our cutting-edge controls and legendary Speed Queen reliability, our softmounts can be game-changers for current store owners and new investors,” Rowen said. “They are aesthetically pleasing and flat-out perform…contributing to an overall improved customer experience.”
