What Customers Are Saying
Customers overwhelmingly praise the washer's exceptional cleaning performance, remarkably quiet operation, and spacious capacity for bulky items like comforters. The agitator design prevents tangling, water efficiency impresses users, and features like auto Deep Fill and smartphone notifications enhance convenience. However, some report premature failures within months of purchase and durability concerns. Despite these reliability issues, most customers find the intuitive digital interface and superior cleaning results make it a worthwhile investment over older machines.

Over Rated
Would Not RecommendI usually always buy Maytag washers so I’ve owned several but this one is the worse washer I’ve ever had. It will not clean our clothes even when I spray them and add oxi to the loads. Not happy with this one at all

This machine is difficult to use. The on off button is pressure sensitive and does not always register the pressure and then it will read and reset.

Ok but has a flaw
Would Not RecommendThe machine is working but there is a flaw. The top lid doesn’t stop condensation on the control panel when washing whites (hot water). Kind of worried this will cause the machine to fail from water damage to the control panel. Did not see this at all in reviews but I found it in other appliance sellers beside the big box stores. Also I have a Maytag account and can’t seem to add this appliance to my list of appliances.

Early Failure
I’ve had this washer less than one year. Complete failure. It’s great that it’s under warranty, but the control panel is dead already and the parts needed to be ordered - there is no eta on when I will have a washing machine again. So disappointed in Maytag!!

Piece of garbage
Would Not RecommendI had a friend who bought this. He gave it to me thinking it was broken. It was. I have a top on it right now. The drum shakes every time I wash it. I hate this machine. I had to replace trash piece of trash

Good washer - load balancing issues
Would RecommendThe washer works as expected. A month before my 5 year warranty expired, it started acting up wth load balancing issues out of nowhere. It is about a $400 fix. Make sure to get the warranty.

VERY DISAPPINTED
Would Not Recommend2 months after my initial warranty expired, I had to replace the bearings and springs. Within 2 weeks later, I had to replace the computer board, 1 week after that the knob that selects the wash cycle broke and was repaired. Now before 30 days, my washer won't come on at all. I have an extended warranty that pays for the parts and labor, however, I am thoroughly disgusted with this machine. This is very inconvenient and I am having a hard time with the extended warranty customer service to is...

Worst Washer Ever!
Would Not RecommendThis was the Second Washer we bought of this exact model. We thought maybe the first one was just faulty so decided to return it and get another one and that was a terrible mistake. We tried it for a week and it simply does not wash all the clothes well, some clothes don't even seem to get wet because the washer never fills right. The agitator barely seems to do anything to properly clean anything, nothing comes out smelling clean. Lowes is terrible with their 3 day return policy, we have spok...

Constantly Breaking
Would Not RecommendIt can not handle the slightest of loads. It is only a few years old and constantly breaking. Would not recommend.

Worked for 2 days
Would Not RecommendThis machine worked fine for 2 days. It wont even start when I put my finger on the start button. I have to hold it there for several seconds. Then it goes through a system reset of the machine. After several seconds, it finally resets so i can wash. It does this same thing every time I use it. I washed a comforter in it.. I noticed it did not clean it, so I put it through the cycle a 2nd time. I also noticed that wash cycles seem to be very short. I timed a cycle and sure enough, its way shorte...
