Maytag - 8.8 Cu. Ft. 10-Cycle Gas Dryer - White

Base on my in-law 15 years with Maytag washer & dryer experience, I finally settled for a pair of grand new U.S made Maytag. I glad that I abandoned the water leakage Samsung washer & Samsung noise maker dryer after just barely 5 years owning them. When comparing 5 to 15, it is 3 times reliability Maytag could handle its product QC. The verdict is clearly favoring Maytag for me personally. Three features I like most about this dryer are CHECK VENT, GOOD AIRFLOW, and CHECK LINT SCREEN. Those alerted LED lights on control panel are very helpful to notifying you how good your dryer status is at. For all features and performance optimization, I would recommend to read & follow its manual instruction and you’ll see what I have missed out. Overall, it is a great buy for me at BB. No more Samsung.

We opted to go with a gas dryer this time instead of the electric. The drum on this thing is big enough to fit a small adult!! One thing I don't like is the lint trap. You need to flip it open to clean it which I feel it will break eventually as its plastic but does hold alot. I've found if you turn the power on first and remove/replace the lint trap prior to adding clothes you won't get the "check lint trap" error and have to open the door, remove/replace the trap and shut the door before starting, which is the one little annoying feature.

I did a lot of research before replacing my 23 year old Whirlpool dryer! So sad to see it go. Didn't really care for the look of the Whirlpool large capacity dryers, so decided to go with this Maytag, since my Maytag washer was 24 years old. As good as my new Maytag dryer is, I doubt it will last 23 years. It holds a lot! In fact, in my shopping research I actually took a king size blanket with me to the appliance show rooms to see how it actually fit in the dryer. It was also the first item I dried in the new dryer. The dryer operation is easy enough to understand and I have no complaints at this time.

Maytag large capacity dryer is just what I've been needing! I have to launder my bed linens very often because the pets like to cuddle with us and this dryer can handle the load! Comforters, bedsreads...dries them fully and fast! This dryer takes far less time to dry than the one I had and that helps save me $$. I would highly recommend this product. It's not inexpensive, but not wildly expensive either. If you need a reliable product that does what it claims to do, choose this one! Delivery and set up was quick and efficient, too!

The dryer makes you pull the lint trap out every dry cycle- I guess good if you do not know how to do laundry. Strange settings to dry for some things. I do not like the outside design. The top side of the dryer, is on a curved slant, so I can't store my soap bottles or things like dryer sheets on the top of the dryer, or folded clothes, everything slides off. (Bad design) . I never ever thought to look at outside design as a factor. I was looking at capacity inside. But it does dr my clothes.

This dryer is huge. I bought Maytag for reliability and longevity. We will see how long it lasts. My last Maytag I bought lasted my parents 30 years. Best Buy had a great deal on the XL Maytag model. I needed something that could handle king size bedding. This model doesn't disappoint. It sometimes gets too hot so I only dry cotton on high and every thing else on medium or medium high. Some of my fleece stuff was burned by the heat so be careful. I have high hopes for at least 20 yrs of use with this model!!

Our last dryer (Samsung) lasted for 1 year. :-( This dryer has been going strong for 3 months now and has performed great! All of our clothes get dry on the FIRST run through. Our comforter takes a little longer (cal-king), but is still faster drying than previous dryers. Another great point with this dryer is how it helps separate animal hair from our bedding. It also has a great wrinkle free drying cycle that works as it should. I am confident this dryer will last for many years through this rough family!

This dryer has a large capacity with many drying cycles to care for many different types of fabric loads. Even though it has a large capacity you can dry smaller loads and it will adjust the drying time by sensing the moisture levels which are fully adjustable. I am still getting used to ALL the settings (I keep the manual on top of the dryer) I do this to use the best settings for each type of load. There are several settings that start out high heat and adjust down for better energy usage & fabric care! The drying times are a little long but with lower temps that is expected.
