A:AnswerThe door on this particular Maytag gas dryer only drops down and is referred to by the manufacturer as a “hamper” door. Most other models that feature a side opening door can be configured to open either to the right or left.
A:AnswerSomething is very wrong. There should NEVER be enough water in the dryer to hear it moving around. If the dryer is not running, there's no movement and thus EVEN IF there's water, you should no hear it. This dryer does NOT have a steam feature, so no water should be able to get in unless you've put soaking wat clothing in the dryer or poured water in.
A:AnswerHmmm According the Maytag Team, the warranty is pretty shabby, essentially nothing after the first year. Actually, just the motor and if it fails the customer pays for labor to swap it. (How could a dryer DRUM fail after a year?)
A:AnswerMost modern dryers feature a cool down period after the drying part of the cycle to reduce fabric wrinkling. Sensor cycles will shut down the heating cycle before the original display time and switch to a cool down if it senses that the clothes are dry enough. If you feel that warm clothes when removed is important you could try restarting the dryer and running the cycle again with the “damp dry signal” function activated and removing the clothes as soon as it sounds.
A:AnswerAs mentioned you need the kit and vent. What we found is that the "installers" come with limited tools and can only do one thing which is to install the fitting into the existing line. If your installation requires more than that they walk away. We had to hire a plumber for $90 for the "simple" job - which is simple if you have more than a pair of channel locks in your tool kit. We will never buy an appliance that requires installation at Best Buy after our last experience.
A:AnswerThere is a conversion kit you can purchase separately. Hopefully this information is beneficial to you. Thank you for your inquiry regarding our Maytag appliances!
