Growing up, we had a Maytag Washer/Dryer set that lasted 20 years before we had any issues with it. Because of that, my husband and I decided to purchase a set for our new home, hoping we'd have the same luck...we didn't. We've had so many issues with this dryer, we've officially spent more money or repairs than what it's worth. The heating element has been replaced now 4 times! I tried calling customer service, but there's nothing they can do. I will NEVER purchase another Maytag/Whirlpool prod...

Not Maytag of old. Worked great for about 2 years
Loved it for about 2 years, liked it for 1 year and now it gives us nothing but headaches. I've reached out to Maytag over Facebook and they sent me a list of recommendations to try to fix my drying issues. We listened and none of them worked. I took my dryer apart and cleaned every little bit of lint and to make sure there were no obvious reasons for issues. My dryer vent is clean and clear, my lint catcher is clean and if you open the dryer, it feels very warm/hot so we can't figure out what t...

Please Read! Initial THUMPING SOUND!!
Hey guys, nobody told us a THING but I was about 2 mins away from packing this thing up and taking it back to Lowes! We had a old GE that did us well, so we wanted the matching Maytag Dryer that went with our Maytag Washer that we bought 8 months before. It was a no brainer it was on sale at Lowes for $548 ($799 reg). Got it home, unboxed got the power cord installed, duct hooked up....fired it up and the worst THUMPING SOUND came from the dryer and was like WHOLLY CRAP>>>WHAT THE HECK! My insti...
SQUEAKY after Two Years
I replaced a prior Maytag dryer with this one because of its age and repeated issues with the heating element. I felt that it was time to start new, but I wanted something to match the washer and needed to keep it budget-friendly. Here I am, two years later, regretting that decision and considering replacing it again. This thing screeches and howls like an animal dying. The internal elements maintenance kit is about $67 from Maytag - those parts, of course, are not covered in the 10-year warrant...

Worked great for the first 2 years
We loved the dryer for 2 years then we noticed the clothes would need more than 1 cycle to fully dry. Now most times it takes 3 cycles. We have always trusted Maytag and this is our first bad experience but that all you need when spending a lot of money. We have taken this thing apart, cleaned it spotless, cleared the dryer vent all through the walls, sucked out every bit of lint in the machine. Everything is squeaky clean. It doesnt matter what setting it's on, it doesnt dry in less than 2 cycl...

Buyer Beware - Poor Quality & Worse Customer Serv.
My wife and I purchased this matching Maytag washer and dryer set on 20 January 2022 to replace the Maytag set that had faithfully served our family for over 16 years. They were delivered on 29 January 2022 and worked flawlessly until 24 March 2022 when the dryer heating element failed. On 24 March 2022 my wife, a property manager for over 100 rental properties, contacted Maytag customer service to report the issue and initiate the warranty process. Maytag customer service initially told her th...

Like the large capacity
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I purchased this dryer under the stress of having my old dryer finally give up after the 13 yrs I had it (it came with the house), and the issue of so many models not being available for months. I thought I did my homework by reading reviews on multiple sites and viewing in person. Unfortunately, I ignored the bad reviews. I try to base my purchases on good and bad reviews, but a lot of bad reviews tend to be highly subjective, so I gav...

Everything I wanted
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this dryer because of the "old dryer" feel. No wi-fi stuff, just an item that knows its job....to dry my stuff! I love the fact that the lint trap is the old style too. I've purchased many appliances over the years and have missed the lovely features that this one has! First the lint trap is not inside the dryer and is in fact a larger screen due to its placement...it is the way all dryers use to be and they always worked excelle...

Not even a month old- already broken
If I could give zero stars, I would. I pray someone from Lowe’s and Maytag sees this because my husband and I are teachers and cannot afford the repairs or costs of another new appliance. We purchased this dryer on October 21, 2022. By the 2nd week in November we noticed an electrical humming noise when starting the dryer- whether it was empty, a couple of items, or a load of items- the sound was still there. Lowes 48 hour return policy for major appliances is the most ridiculous policy. It sh...

Excellent Simple Dryer
I recently purchased this new Maytag electric dryer to replace the old Maytag Centennial electric dryer that I had. What I like about this American made Maytag clothes dryer is that this is a basic old school style clothes dryer that is very simple and easy to use. It has large readable dial knobs to select the temperature, drying cycle, and wrinkle control. And the best part is that you can have the end of cycle signal turned off if you don't want to hear the dryer making an audible sound afte...
