This washer sucks. It shakes. It’s noisy. The wash cycles are ridiculously long. I can’t turn the water on until the lid is down and once the lid is down then it messes up the whole cycle if you need to put something in last minute. Yes it has a deep tub and yes the laundry is coming out clean. Yes it’s made well..but overall I absolutely hate the performance and do not recommend.

We purchased this washer a week ago and once we got it home and hooked it up we were shocked how loud it was. I decided to start trying to figure out why it was so noisy, and I'm glad I did! To start with, the loud sound right when you start a load of wash is the door locking. Is it loud? Yup, sure is, but it has nothing to do with how the washer performs. Secondly, when you install the drain hose it is naturally curved to set back against the base of the machine at the bottom, so when the machine starts to spin, the drain hose smacks the back of the machine, making an annoying racket. Luckily the drain hose is also sort of flexible and if you just ever so slightly bend it away from the machine it will cease making that sound. And finally, the water lines that we purchased were garbage. They were the only set Best Buy had in stock so we purchased them in the name of "new" being better than re-using the old lines with a new machine. I read the reviews on the lines we bought and 4 people mentioned that they were causing water hammering in their home. A quick search showed that the lines we bought were not as wide internally as other lines and as such were causing water hammering when it hit the lines and it had to abruptly slow down. Water hammering is not only annoying, it is bad for your pipes. We bought new water lines made specifically to quick fill an HE washer and the problem (and the noise associated with it) stopped. Our clothes are definitely getting cleaner than they were, the cycles are not insanely long and it does the job you need it to do, all at a pretty good price.

I was so excited about this purchase I went with the set and was a great price with the sale. Never could I have ever thought a basic washing machine from Maytag could be faulty. The machines are very basic easy to use no bells and whistles just turn the knob to cycle desired (normal, whits, heavy, etc). The lid is very flimsy fells like could break easily very wobbly. It started with a little leak, didn't worry too much since was just installed maybe from hooking up. But that wasn't all, before the team left he explained to try and keep them both runnig as much as possible thru the next 24-48 hours making sure everything is running properly. When they left both the washer & dryer were running set on the longest cycle. After work I went and put in my first load. The washer was the loudest washer I have ever experienced. When it would change cycles the thumping from the change over was so extreme literally would shake the house. The only time it was quiet was during it actually cleaning. Otherwise extremely loud, thumping, and shaking. Also it would take an hour and half for a regular wash set on normal, insane. Mind you my washer and dryer are in the basement for reference to the noise and shaking. I had a Armana set previously that ran perfectly with no issue for 10yrs. The dryer is a whole nother story. The only setting the dryer would work at was on《HIGH HEAT》 ● 《MORE DRY》 any orher setting it would trip the breaker. On day 2 (so with in 24hr) the dryer randomly would decide if it even would dry at all on the one setting or not. The delivery team were AMAZING very very respectful and went above and beyond the typical delivery & install. After the installation was complete the lead of the team brought to my attention the washer had a dent and had already made Best Buy aware by submitting a claim. He called the rep on his phone and handed the call over to me in order to resolve or rectify the issue. He explained the entire process before calling for me and helped with receiving a refund for the damage. If i could give the delivery install team 10☆☆☆ I would!!

Great machine. Not a fan of the lid lock in the event you can add more clothes. A little noiser than my old unit but very spacious for a extraarge load of laundry. Besides the lid lock. Thw washer is hands off. I put you detergent first then the clothes, select my wash options, hit start and done it washes the laundry without having to check or oversee the wash which is nice. Once its locked, let it wash and your laundry is washed and clean.

I prefer top loading washers. This 1 did not disappoint. I like the agitator. In the middle because I feel it washes the clothes a lot better. My white clothes come out white and not dingy. Works great!!! I recommend 10 out of 10.
