FYI, all current Speed Queen models except the Classic Series dryer (DC5, not the washer) are electronically controlled. Even the ones with knobs. They are not mechanical and no longer use the oldschool sequencing drums.

The TR7/DR7 are at least still sold with a 7 year manufacturer's warranty, though. This is specifically to assuage consumer fears about the electronic control panel.
