There is a bit of a trade off here.
Washing machine spin speed efficiency.
You know how machines often try to spin but because of unbalanced loads it often fails.
That might have happened in this case.
However it seems that 1400 rpm is becoming the new default spin speed.
What to do when the washer won t spin clothes shouldn t be sopping wet after a run in the washer.
Wool will require a slower spin speed around 600 800rpm synthetic will need around 800 1000 rpm and cotton will need 900 1400rpm.
I believe the 800 rpm machine never got to full spin speed.

Troubleshooting a kenmore washing machine whose spin cycle is not working.
In theory when your maytag washer reaches its spin cycle it should begin spinning.
Spin speed is measured in revolutions per minute rpm and refers to the speed at which the drum rotates during a spin cycle.
Cotton synthetic wool etc.
Our pick of the best quiet washing machine for those on a budget is the samsung wf42h5000aw.
Spin speed the highest spin speed is 1600 rpm but many washers are rated 1400 rpm.
Although the process is fairly simple there are a number of problems that may occur.
I have a samsung wf56h9100 front load washer and during both the rinse and spin cycles the washer won t spin up to remove the water from the clothes.
The faster the spin of your machine the more water is squeezed out of your laundry and the quicker it will dry.
It just starts to ramp up then stops and the drain pump comes on for a second but if i remove the vibration sensor from the tub during the times it s trying to spin up it will work normally.
Higher speeds are preferable as they remove more water and make drying your washing a lot quicker.
A good spin speed will vary on the type of fabrics you have in the machine eg.
The washing machine will have a default spin speed for the type of clothes and program you have chosen.
Quick 15 minute washes also use higher spin speeds too.
These speeds commonly range between 400 and 1800 rpm.
Kenmore makes washing machine in a variety of models including top and front loaders and high efficiency units that.
When buying a washing machine look for a model with a high rpm.
For the average person buying an averagely built washing machine 1200 should be the best compromise between drying efficiency and cost noise stability and wear and tear.
Andy thanks for the question.
