Maytag - 5.3 Cu. Ft. High Efficiency Smart Top Load Washer with Extra Power Button - White

This machine is everything you want! Quiet, easy to use and you can control it on your phone. Delivery was terrific, guys were professional and friendly and took care in home & with the appliances. The lack of an agitator prevents any issues with balance and you never have tangled clothes or blankets. Handles all of our needs from daily washes to bedding and rugs with ease.

I’ve done a lot of research about washers and dryers, and wanted something that could take king size comforters, along with other bulky items without going to a laundromat. Most consumer front loaders don’t offer the capacity like a top loader without a agitator. The way it cleans clothes is amazing; at first, it scrubs the hell out them with small amounts of water mixed with the detergent, and gradually adds more water throughout the wash, *do not add too much soap!* add the right amount on the cup or scooper, its very efficient. Also make sure your bulky loads are evenly distributed and the washer secured to the ground or it’ll spin off balance, along with keeping the software up-to-date. Be mindful about delicates, this thing is heavy duty! Aside from the way it washes clothes, my favorite thing about this washer is it’s made in the USA, and comes with a 10 year warranty. I’m sure it’ll last much longer than 10 years because it’s a Maytag, and if something goes wrong, there will be parts available. Another thing that sold me, if you walk into a BestBuy, you’ll see a lot LG, and Samsung returns, but not a Maytag; that says a lot about their quality.

I have owned this washer about a week. it is replacing a 9 year old LG that died My repairman said to not buy another LG (or a Samsung or GE for that matter). I went with Maytag because of it's solid reputation and longevity on the market. I bought this washing machine based solely on online reviews, the fact that it fit in the space I had, and that it was on sale and I could have it within days. First of all this washer is huge. If I was a little shorter, I wouldn't be able to reach my stuff. (I'm 5'5") In hindsight, I probably don't need a machine this size. The door is also huge and hits my cabinet when I open it. And I likely won't use all the features it comes with. My first load was a bunch of towels I had accumulated while waiting for a new washer. I didn't realize it was set on slow spin and that I had to select fast spin, so everything came out soaked and we had to run it again. I've done several loads since, and it is doing a nice job. My second load was two queen size blankets and a queen size sheet. It does seem to vibrate a little more than my LG did. And be aware, the buttons on the control panel are very sensitive!! I accidentally cancelled a cycle while I was cleaning in my laundry room and lightly wiped the control panel.
