Maytag High Efficiency Agitator Medium ( 4.2-cu ft ) Top-Load Washer ( White )

Maytag Top Loading 4.2 cu Washing Machine 4205SW

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Extremely touchy! Unless clothes are put in just so, the washer goes off balance. Even though it should be able to handle bulky or heavy items, such as men's blue jeans, it goes off balance. After watching the videos available and following all the directions from balancing the machine to loading, etc. it still is not reliable to leave the washer to do a load of laundry for fear the lights might all start flashing! And, then to top it off, ...

Just delivered and already a "lemon". :(

I inherited an old school Maytag dependable care washer when I moved apartments nearly 4 years ago. It was the best. Very simple and straightforward, and it allowed me to lift the lid whenever I wanted to and fill the drum with as much water as I needed. Well, the timer started to go on the machine and I had no choice but to replace it. I have a disabled kitty that recently became paralyzed on May 1st, so being able to keep up with washing pee pads and baby blankets is extremely important. Wit...

Gets the job done well

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had a front loader of another brand that gave me nothing but issues and I absolutely hated. I got rid of it and bought what I consider the best brand in appliances, Maytag. I do really love this washer, except that it's loud and it's so hard to pause and then get it to restart if you forget to put one thing in. I wish there was a simple button to unlock the dang lid. As someone that has no children around, it's decidedly inconvenient to ha...

Worst Appluance Ever

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Told it was Centennial replacement. Not even close. Base is 2 & 1/2" taller at the lid so overhead cabinet doors must be open so lid will stay up when filling. The agitator begins shortly after water begins to fill machine so clothes are twisted from beginning. Poor choices for type of wash to be done. Aside from delicate, it spins the life out of clothes. Very noisy when filling and whenever water spins out plastic hose has plastic plat...

Be ke

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] At 4 1/2 months it no longer matters works loud grinding noise. I have called for warranty work but was told they can’t find anyone in my area so I need to give them 3 days to see if they can find me someone and if they do find someone I’m sure you I will have to wait for that person to have an opening. So just 4 1/2 months ago my old machine did not work and I had to go to the laundry mat and now here I am going to the laundry mat again.

Buyer beware! Run and buy something else.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It seems like part of the clothes barely get wet much less clean. I have to rewash multiple stained items and yes I pretreat stains. I have to use a double rinse to be sure. This is the loudest washing machine I’ve ever encountered. When it spins it sounds like it’s coming through the wall in my entry. Even the wash cycles are noisy! My old Maytag was nothing like the new and I’m so disappointed and stuck with this until it dies.

missing item

i order the 2 -Pack 6-ft 3/4 -in FHT Inlet x 3/4 -in FHT Outlet Stainless steel Washing machine connector with my washer but never got it they used the old ones i had to rehook it up talked to lowes 3 times about missing item yet hearing nothing back

Quiet, Efficient, and Easy to Use

After using this washer for several weeks, I'm very satisfied with my purchase. It has handled everything from everyday clothing to large loads of towels and bedding without any problems. The wash cycles are easy to understand, and I appreciate that the machine doesn't use more water than necessary. Even with the lower water levels, the rinsing performance has been excellent—my clothes come out clean, fresh, and free of detergent residue. Another thing I like is the cycle speed. Most loads fin...

Very quiet

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] While I’m not a fan of non agitator washing machines, this model seems to wash clothes very nicely. It’s so quiet. I don’t like the quick wash cycle as something that had an odor came out of the wash with the odor still in it so I don’t use that cycle anymore. Seems to really spin all the water out where the clothes are almost dry. Great machine for the price I paid.

Big Drum, Great Spin Cycle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Larger drum than previous washer and I Love It! What would have been a full heavy load in my old machine is a normal in this new machine. I also find the Spin Cycle does a great job. I've pulled out sheets that were practically dry from this washer. Only had it a few months but it is used daily and still runs like a charm.
