Q: QuestionWhy will this not stack under an older Maytag dryer with a stacking kit ?

Asked 4 years ago by strav.

• A:Answer Hi strav, the sets are matched for size and for weight and motion distribution specifically so they can also be used together when stacked, as are the stacking kits. Many newer models will have different weights, cycles, bigger drums, and even different wash technology. For these reasons, we can only recommend stacking matched sets.

Q: QuestionWhat is the expected life of this unit? I bought one in Sept 2021 and the whole ACU (main control panel) blew out 3.5 years later. It cost me $450 to repair. It almost seems that it would have been better to buy a whole new unit which sells for about $900
