Recommendations for coin operated w/d for 5plex

I am hoping to find recommendations on electric coin operated washer/dryer for a 5 plex in Pasco County. Open to recommendations on brand to purchase, or a company to lease with or purchase from.  Would also be interested to know if anyone has had a good experience with a coin free payment method for their machines. 

I have been looking into some brands (Whirlpool seems to have really poor performance and service reviews so far) and the lease company I have been able to speak with won't consider working with fewer than 10 unit properties. 

Thank you

The reason they don't want to operate it for five units is it will operate at a loss

It is MUCH easier, simpler, and cheaper to just install residential (free) machines, and charge a flat rate for unlimited laundry use.

I highly recommend speed queen. They have residential and a professional lines and an excellent reputation.  I used them in my vacation rental and never had a problem.  And I bought the brand for my personal use as well.
