I hate this washer. Worst purchase I’ve ever made. I’ve had it for 2 years and am looking at new ones. There are crevices inside the rubber seal that small items get stuck in, and dirt and pet hair build up in. I have to clean my washer after every single load I do. And worse, it won’t spin half the time. It spins very slowly and leaves my clothes soaked and dripping. I have to pull all the dripping wet clothes out and rearrange them and spin them again, and even that doesn’t work half the time....

Not worth it

Would Not Recommend

Very unstable. Vibrates a lot and moves while spinning. I had asked the delivery people to fix it. Though fixed twice, it still is the same. Unfortunately, I can't return it, since it is past the 48hours.

Spinning is a Challenge for it

Would Not Recommend

I had a top loading Maytag with the LED lights. Repairmen know what that means. I have no idea why any company would want to use the balancing rods they use that go the height of the washer. It will NEVER balance a tub. But they keep making them. This model can't do it either and it has "direct drive." Want a good washer that can actually balance like they used to and you don't have to babysit it? Buy a Speed Queen.

Do Not Purchase this Maytag Washer

Would Recommend

I had a Maytag for 20 years and LOVED it and then needed to purchase a new one. This washer is a little over a year old. A service technician has already been to my home four times, and the motherboard has now been replaced twice. Despite these repairs, the machine is still not working properly. The washer shakes excessively and does not consistently complete the rinse and spin cycle, which makes it unreliable for normal use. Because of this, I am requesting a replacement washer under the warran...

Not worth the money

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have had issues with the washer not doing final spin cycles at all. We have to run the drain and spin cycles every time we use it. And the rinse cycles do not rinse soap out of the clothes without running the extra rinse cycle making a run of the washer over 2 hours for even the small loads. Terrible!

Love this washer/dryer set!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had my washer & dryer for over 6 months. They are so great!! It’s just my husband & I in the house now, but I love the large capacity. Makes washing sheets & blankets easy while getting clean. Features are great with so many load settings to choose from. I’d never spent the money on front load before, but wish I had years ago. Doing laundry no longer causes my back to hurt for days after!! My husband laughed at me because I literally stret...

2nd time around

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The washer is not walking or hitting anything. The drawer we had to purchase, that the washer sits on, opens up when the washer spins out. I guess it's a tradeoff. I would rather have the drawer slide open than the washer shacking so bad it knocked the detergent off the shelf beside it.

It dries SO FAST!! I have mine stacked and the dials are REALLY high. If you are short, don’t stack it. I’m 5’9” and it’s a tough height. But it works like a gem. Very happy.

Waste of Time and Money

Would Not Recommend

Lowes and Maytag should be ashamed of themselves. You're only as good as the product that you sell. I Only owned this machine for a little over a year and had nothing but problems with it . I didn't install it right away because there was nothing wrong with my previous washer. I still haven't hookee up the dryer that i bought with the washer. I tried reaching out to whirlpool with my issues and they said It's not under warranty. Don't waste your time. I'm at the point where I don't wanna own an...
