  • Key Specs
    • Product Height: 42 inches (The out of box height of the item. Height is measured as the vertical distance from the bottom of the item to the top as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Width: 27 1/2 inches (The out of box width of the item. Width is measured as the horizontal distance from one side of the item to the other as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Product Depth: 27 inches (The out of box depth of the item. Depth is measured as the distance from the front of the item to the back as it would be primarily used or placed.)
    • Height With Door Open: 55 inches (Measurement from the bottom of the product to its top, with lid fully open.)
    • Capacity: 4.7 cubic feet
    • High-Efficiency: true (Washers with this label feature technology meant to use less water. High Efficiency (HE) washers may also be larger in capacity. Using High Efficiency (HE) detergent in these washers is highly recommended as they are designed to be quick-dispersing and operate in low water conditions by producing less suds, requiring less detergent. Not using the recommended detergent can lead to additional rinse cycles and increased water usage.)
    • Steam Function: false (In washers, this feature may be employed before, during, or after the main wash cycle. Steam aids in stain removal, activating detergent, sanitizing, and softening wrinkles. In dryers, this feature can be used to remove wrinkles or quickly freshen clothing items.)
    • Washing Mechanism: Agitator (There are two washing mechanisms to choose from in today's washing machines: agitators or impellers. An agitator is a column located in the center of the washing tub. It may be finned or vaned, and works to clean clothes by rotating and rubbing against clothes to break down stains. An impeller is a low-profile cone at the bottom of the tub that uses fins, cones, or discs to create motion. This motion pushes clothes to rub against each other, versus against an agitator, to break down dirt.)
    • Agitator Type: Dual-action (A single-action agitator typically rotates one way to circulate clothes throughout the washer. A dual-action agitator has two parts that rotate differently; the top rotates to push clothes down toward the bottom of the tub while the bottom continues to move clothes in a circular motion. Triple-action agitators work similarly, but add a third up-and-down motion to the dual rotation.)

Q: I really need to find a way to soak clothes in this washer. I've read all the Q&A but none of it seems to work. Has someone managed to get this to happen. I want to soak overnight.

A: i finally figured out a way to soak cloths over night ... After the washer is done filling up with water hit the pause button do not open lid the machine will stay paused walk away and return when your done soaking push pause button again and cycle will continue from where it was paused. This is the only way that I have found that allows you to soak your cloths. Do not leave the lid open or you will come back and find the washer empty.. Hope this helps ! ! !

Q: Does the agitator move the clothes sufficiently to get it clean to your satisfaction? For those who previously had a no-agitator washer, are your clothes now cleaner with the agitator? Also, was your new Maytag delivered to you in an enclosed box?

A: Agitator moves sufficiently, but very little water. Some clothing and bedding have been damaged due , I think, to the lack of water. I have always had an agitator washer, with lots of water, so clothes were always clean and well rinsed. No, my new Maytag It did not come in an enclosed box that I saw, unless it was unpacked on the truck. I am looking for a possible replacement. The washer is pretty to look at and has nice sounds, but still, I can't afford to have my clothing damaged.

Q: Does this have a "soak" option? Does the tub drain if you open the lid and just let it sit, full of water?

A: The machine turns off after a few minutes of not being in use, and it drains. I am still trying to figure out if there is a way around this for soaking.

Q: Some reviews have commented that this model is very quiet and some have complained that's it's very noisy. How to know if I should get this? I don't want a noisy machine.

A: I've had it for almost a month. Think it's one of the noisiest machines I've ever heard. I have it in a small room that has tile on the floor so I put a rug down and that's helped a little. I also am having problems with soap scum being left on my dark clothes. I would definitely look at buying a different machine if I were you!

Q: My MVWB765FW Maytag was purchased new in September of 2017. Six months later, it has started making a very loud, screeching/screaming noise during the spin cycle. I cannot imagine that the bearings will last long. Anyone else have this noise issue?

A: Yes, I have the same model, purchased in Nov. 2016 at Home Depot. Once per week I wash only a couple of small loads. The past two uses, the machine has suddenly started "squealing or screeching" during what seems to be the beginning and end of the spin cycle. Not sure if it's a braking mechanism, a pulley bearing or what, but it is very disappointing to have issues after only 16 months of use. After an "exploding" Samsung, I spent a lot of time researching for a good, dependable machine. I thought Maytag was it, up until now. It would be interesting to know how many others are experiencing this noise.

Q: If I pause the washer WITHOUT opening the lid, can I leave it in this pause mode for an indefinite period of time? Or will the water drain out after a certain period of time, even though the lid isn't open?

A: Yes you can leave it in pause mode and the water will not drain out.. Make sure you wait until the machine finishes filling up with water at the beginning of the wash cycle then hit the pause button do not open the lid. I walked away and returned the following morning and all the water was still in the machine I hit the pause button again and washer continued the cycle where it left off .... Hope this helps .

Q: Can I chose the speed of the spin cycle so clothes are not so dried out and wrinkled? Is there a slower spin?

A: Yes, there is a button to change spin speed, I tend to choose a slower speed and avoid "Max Extract" which is the fastest speed as my experience has been that this wears the bearing out faster meaning repairs (at over $250 a pop) more often.
