Door is too dark; doesn't seem to get enough water

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It is a hard machine to get used to. It does not behave like the front-loaders at the laundromat. I'm used to seeing more water involved. Also, the dark door does not allow a clear view of the operation of the machine to make me comfortable with operation of the machine.

Dangerous Maintenance

Would Not Recommend

I bought the MHW5630HW3 in November of 2021. The drain filter needs to be cleaned out occasionally. There is no door on this unit at the bottom to access the filter. Each time the filter needs to be cleaned, the washer needs to be disconnected, pulled out from the wall and tilted to lean against the wall. You need to crawl underneath a 240lbs washing machine to disconnect the drain hose and stick your finger in the filter to pull out lint and other objects. This is dangerous and physically dema...

Rock solid for a second story laundry room.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ive had this washer for three months now. It lives on the 2nd story of our home so I needed a machine with little vibration and solid stability. This machine had the reviews to support minimal vibration. So far it has been perfect.

Trash - Waste of money

Whomever recommends this product should be party to the class action lawsuit. Broke after 3 years, repair man said cost too much to repair, better off buying new. Told me he sees these units fail after 1 year. You should be ashamed Maytag

When purchased the associate did NOT mention you needed to buy the stackable kit separate which screwed up the delivery process turning this simple transaction into a time consuming nightmare

A Bit Disappointing Compared To My Previous Maytag

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This washer seems poorly made compared to my previous Maytag units. The instruction manual is not very helpful and explains nothing about the various settings. The washing is OK but the spinout violently shakes the whole machine. I never had this issue with my old Maytag washer with similar loads. It seems like a few towels is overloading it. This washer has a much smaller front gasket than my previous Maytag which is harder to clean.
