Clothes come out dirty
AprilJ Posted
I want to return this machine. Had a repair man come out and he stated that the extra power means less water and clothes rub together more with less water. Stopped using extra power or pet pro extra power all together and clothes are still not being cleaned.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We regret that you are having these concerns with your Washer.
If your clothes are not cleaning properly with your Maytag® Washer, please check the following key troubleshooting areas:
Initial Run: If the washer was recently installed, run an empty "Quick Wash" cycle with HE detergent before the first load to ensure the drum is clean.
Water Hoses: Verify the hot and cold water inlet hoses are connected to the correct household supply and that both water faucets are fully turned on for proper fill.
2. Cycle and Settings
Water Temperature: Use the warmest temperature safe for the fabric, as recommended by the garment care label. Warmer temperatures (hot or warm) generally clean better.
Cycle Selection: Choose the appropriate cycle for your load's fabric type and soil level.
Soil Level: Adjust the Soil Level (wash time) setting for heavily soiled items (Extra Heavy or Extra Power) or lightly soiled items (Light Soil).
Spin Speed: Faster spin speeds reduce drying time but can increase wrinkling. Slower speeds reduce wrinkling but may leave clothes damper.
3. Detergent and Additives
Detergent Type: Use only HE (High-Efficiency) detergent.
Detergent Amount: Always measure detergent. Using non-HE detergent or too much detergent can cause excessive suds, leading to poor cleaning and very wet loads. Follow the manufacturer's dosage based on soil level and load size.
Fabric Softener: Measure and dilute fabric softener, adding it only to the rinse portion of the cycle to avoid staining or discoloration.
Liquid Chlorine Bleach: Measure carefully and follow directions. Undiluted bleach will damage fabric.
4. Loading and Routine Care
Loading: Load items in loose heaps evenly around the washplate so they can move freely. Reduce load size if necessary.
Sorting: Separate dark items from lights and whites to prevent dye transfer.
Routine Cleaning: Run a Clean Washer Cycle (ideally monthly with an appliance cleaner like affresh®) to re-calibrate the water levels and remove detergent and softener build-up.

Very HAPPY!

So far we are much happier with this machine over our previous GE model. Two things: we wanted to be able to control the water level for washing and rinsing, across the variety of load types (delicate to heavy) and this machine does that; and 2, we wanted the agitator to get clothes cleaner and to get the soap out during rinse. Also, our pre ious non-agitator model was always getting unbalanced and we would frequently have to rebalance the load. We have not had to do that with this new machine and I attribute that primarily to having the agitator in the center of the tub.

I would hive it a 5 star if it would fill past half way. That really is my only complaint with this washer. Even on max deep fill, it will not fill any higher.honestly, I don't think any modern washer will fill any higher though. Love the petpro and power boost option.

Washer was damaged I’m assuming delivered from manufacturer. Best Buy delivery guys are AWESOME. I’m praying the new machine will be fine. So happy Best Buy did not leave me without a washer until new one comes.

Love this Top Load Washer!
Tommyjr Posted
We love this Top Load Washer! It has a tall agitator which is a "must" for our laundry needs. This washing machine is roomy & perfect for blankets, quilt and comforters. It has plenty of wash settings, so we are able to choose a specific setting needed at that time. The Quick Wash option is a life saver! The Extra Power and Pet Pro Option is a plus! The washer is quiet and efficient. We are beyond pleased with our purchase.

Pet hair filter is awesome!
afritzel Posted
The washer seems to clean well. Love the pet hair filter. I don't like that you can not put water in the tub while you are adding clothes. So, that is the only reason that I have given 4 stars instead 5

Good option for large families

Great washer, worked well however it was damaged when received. I still used it while the replacement came in due to needing it, but it did a good job even with a dent on the side.
