Rated 5 out of 5 by Jenngg from First three weeks Uncharacteristically, I purchased this dryer without doing much research. I had had my previous washer/dryer for 15 years, and it had been on the downswing for about 5 years. I got lucky with this set, and my feeling is that it's a workhorse. The capacity is outstanding, and all the special features such as the steam refresh have put my iron essentially out of business. Large loads get dried without wrinkles or multiple cycles, and it easily manages even a king-sized comforter. My only issue is that I can't get the machine to pair with my bluetooth so I can control it via the Maytag app.

Rated 5 out of 5 by largoo from Has more features and a 10 year warranty. Bought our new Maytag dryer exactly a week ago. Love the steam option for taking wrinkles out of clothes. Also, when I need something dried quickly, I can use the quick dry with extra power. Haven't felt the urge to connect it with my phone through wifi, but not ruling it out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Tom A. from Works as advertised with no problems at all. I bought this set (MED8630 Dryer/MHW8630 Washer) about a month ago. They were delivered in perfect condition with everything promised in the box. We connected the hoses, vents, and electrical then added some detergent and fired up our first load. The washer is very quiet and offers a multitude of pre-programmed cycles and optional settings. The Normal cycle that we use most frequently is fast and does a very good job getting the clothing clean. The Dryer is equally as quiet and dries clothing quickly and thoroughly with plenty of options to choose from. Both appliances are huge compared to the compact Euro appliances we had prior to these. They both are energy efficient. Our first load of laundry came out clean, dry, and remarkably fresh smelling. Time will tell regarding durability and reliability but we feel confident the machines will perform well for the long haul. We're glad to have purchased these machines.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Good BC from Option everything We have had this machine for a month and it is operating wonderfully. We are still working out the best option combinations for our purposes, but having all of the different options is very nice. We had our previous Maytag washer/dryer for about 35 years with only minor maintenance. This new one may not last that long, but I don't forsee any reasom that it shouldn't if we follow proper regular maintenance.

Rated 5 out of 5 by John S. from Very nice dryer. The dryer has great features. It has everything you need to dry any type of material. I originally bought another brand and had nothing but problems with it including having it break down twice. The Maytag is a great buy for the money. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a high quality machine.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Nomm from Love my new dryer I'm still learning all the features. Love the control panel up front easy to reach. Many useful choices offered. Love the side opening door rather than a folding down opening door. Makes reaching into the back of the drum easier. Love the style of the square door very much; wish is that the interior lights would stay on longer with the door open while I pull out one item at a time to be folded.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Dar61 from Great Dryer........Poor customer service I had an addition added to my house with an area constructed to house this washer/dryer set that was described as "stackable". They are not stackable due to the slant of the control panel (unless you are well over 6' tall). I called customer service and spoke with someone in dispute resolution. Was informed that she would "send a complaint up". I asked that she send me a confirmation email........well, I not only did not receive an email, I never got a call back. I ended up having to pay my contractor to reconfigure the laundry area. With that said......love the dryer but customer service is definitely lacking!
