Rated 1 out of 5 by silicore from One major problem with this washer We bought this washer 2 months ago. We find that sometimes golf shirts come out relatively wrinkle free and other times they look like they have been slept in. Socks very rarely are dry with the rest of the clothes. MAJOR PROBLEM: at the end of a cycle, I opened the door and soap came pouring out of the machine, down the front and onto the floor. Also, the soap starts running down the door the minute I put it in the cup and if I need to put something into the washer after having put soap in, the soap gets all over the place. What a major design flaw. We're thinking of sending this back and trying another brand. Very disappointing.

Rated 2 out of 5 by dogmathree from Maytag, What on earth were you thinking? I did a lot of research before I bought this machine and it wasn't cheap. It has worked well, and I loved it until recently. Now I also get the F9/E1 message. It is not draining. I have cleaned out the drain hose and would gladly have cleaned out the filter, BUT I CAN NOT ACCESS IT! On my previous washer, an LG, the filter was very accessible on the lower front of the washer. Why on earth would you put a filter in a spot that requires the washer to be taken apart? I now have to wait over a week for a service person and take a day off work for a filter clean out. Honestly, I am considering replacing this--- so disappointed.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Anonymous from The Bad Received the item today and did a few washes. I will be calling Maytag to have this replaced or possibly repaired.The Bad:- Drain pump is obnoxiously loud. I can hear it all throughout my 3000 sqft. house. Much louder than the $300 machine this replaced.- Every touch of a button makes a loud beeping noise and I don't see a way to disable.- Buttons are too sensitive. When I lean on the font of the washer to reach cabinets above, the buttons are pressed making loud beeps.- Washer door seal is substantially wet after a cycle. I can see how this machine can easily harbor mold.The Expected:- Washes clothes- Noise levels acceptable besides drain pump

Rated 5 out of 5 by Ron12 from Big loads, Great Job! We have owned this washer for about a month. We love it. We like the idea of the water savings associated with a front loading machine, but our previous 2 were problematic. We would end up with towels that smelled of mildew and the washers themselves would occasionally develop odors. We have washed all of the formerly mildewed towels on the sanitize cycle and the odor was gone after only one washing! Another problem with previous washers was the terrible vibration and noise during the spin cycle. The anti vibration technology on this machine is fantastic! No movement and very quiet. this is our first May tag, but I doubt it will be our last!

Rated 4 out of 5 by Atlanta Joe from Perfect-- For a mid price range washer, I think this model is hard to beat. In three months of use, we haven't found a single clothes washing feature or setting we'd want to add, much less at a price premium, and have found that one customized setting--regular wash, on cool water(which we Iike--not cold/not warm) with an extra rinse handles 90% of our laundry loads perfectly. I also like the spin only cycle (previous unit had combo rinse and spin). My only concern is the location of the filter UNDER the unit and that it's not front panel accessible for regular check and maintenance...we'll wait and withhold judgement but it IS a point of concern.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Mark B from Not Happy!! I was in need of a new washer after my Bosch stopped working, so I started looking. I looked at numerous brands and decided on the Maytag. I bought it, brought it home and hooked it up myself, as I have done many times before. After it was all connected I attempted to turn it on and it did not come on. I rechecked all the connections to make sure everything was tight, the packing bolts were removed and the plug was secure. Once again it failed to turn on. I called the appliance store and I was told to bring it back, which I did. After all that I went with another brand, due to what appeared a reliability issue. I will not buy another Maytag product!!

Rated 1 out of 5 by StAugBrian from One of the worst appliances we've ever purchased We bought this machine 20 months ago and during the entire time we've owned this machine, we've had nothing but constant issues. Every issue and service has required us to unstack the laundry equipment and then pull out of the laundry closet for the repairman which is A LOT of work. Though pieces of the slide tray broke early-on (annoying), our biggest issue has been with the constant control board malfunctions leading to its eventual replacement. We are now awating the arrival of our THIRD control panel! Due these costly issues, we're so disappointed in the Maytage brand and feel that we'll likely never buy another Maytag appliance of any type. :(

Rated 5 out of 5 by LL from Coming form a top load for 17 years My how technology has changed since my last washer purchase 17 years ago.I can't believe how clean the wash comes out using so little water.With the steam function and a little Oxy powder my whites have never been brighter.I am very pleased with this purchase.The wash cycle does take a little longer than I'm used to but considering the water I'm saving it's worth it.The only con is eventually I know I will need to clean out the pump filter in the future and to get to that I would have to take off the back panel and possibly the top and front to get to it.Other manufacterers have a small trap door or removable front panel to access this filter.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Clean deal from Washes loads quickly This is my second Maytag Washer. I had the first one for over 16 years. I like that fact that it washes the loads very fast and they come out rinsed very well. The only drawback is that the tub is dark and should have a light. My old washer had an light in the tub so I could see if I removed all articles of clothing. Another drawback is when I was a throwrug it continues to recycle through the rinse cycle. This will go on indefinitely until I manually stop it and have to remove a water bogged throwrug from the tub. I can't place it in the dryer so I have to hang it outside for days. This was never an issue with my previous Maytag washer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Grandma S from First Front loader My 3rd Maytag, first front loader. Purchased the drawer to raise up the machine. Highly recommend doing that. Steel drum clothes seam to wash better than in a top loader. They also are not as wet coming out so that is why it doesn't take as long to dry. I use the premeasured pods. Add fabric softener in dispense drawer. Delivery guy says to lead that draw open when not in use. It lets air flow and keeps mold growth on gasket. Love the easy to use wash cycles. 27" wide fit my space where top loader wouldn't . Hated my old machine I had for 1 yr. it was a national recall when spin cycle blows up. Glad I went back to Maytag
