Start button is obnoxious
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Dryer has been working well, dries quickly and efficiently. My only gripe is with starting a cycle. You power the dryer on and thrn press and holf the start button while it counts down 3 seconds. There are no beeps whe ln you press and hold and you have to hold the button for it to start. On my old dryer, you just pressed start and it started. Its just annoying to have to press and hold for so long before it starts and there is no feedback beep when you press it either. Half the time I think I didn't actually hit the button and end up releasing beforw the count down finished and have to do it again. Its just weird. Id have bought a different dryer if I knew it was like this. Otherwise its good, but the start button is obnoxious.

Maytag in Name only
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a Maytag in name, but not in quality. I replaced a 20-year-old Maytag with this model and could immediately notice the difference in build quality. There are a few functionality quirks that are less desirable than my old dryer: 1) You have to turn the power on every time you use it. This makes no sense. Even my 20-year-old dryer was smart enough to know that if I opened the door, I'm probably about to do a load of laundry, so it would power on automatically. 2) You have to hold the 'Start' button for 3 seconds in order to start the cycle. This is annoying. Don't hold me hostage, just start the cycle! 3) The first few loads came out damp, even though I had it set to the 'Dryest' setting. I'm still not sure why. Maybe there's a 'learning' period, or maybe I just had some setting set wrong. After the first few loads, everything has come out dry as expected. 4) The end-cycle chime is way too soft, even at its highest setting. If I have the laundry room door closed, I can't hear the chime in the very next room. So, I often end up with clothes sitting in the dryer for 10-30 minutes because I don't realize that the cycle is finished. This was not a problem on my old dryer. But I guess this is an excuse to use the 'Steam' function to release the wrinkles. On the upside, it is much larger than my old dryer. I think this will be beneficial when doing larger loads or drying larger items (blankets, comforters, etc). However, my first load was fairly large and it came out damp after the first cycle, so I'm not sure how well I'll be able to utilize the larger capacity without running longer cycle times or running it twice. Overall, I give this dryer an 'Average' score. There are some quirks about it that makes you wonder if the designers actually ever used it to do a load of laundry in a normal house. Also, I don't expect it to last half as long as my previous Maytag... which was still running great after 20 years, but I needed a new washer so I decided to replace the whole set. The new one just doesn't have the standard Maytag build quality of yesteryear. You can definitely tell the difference since Whirlpool bought them out.

Dries Beautifully
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought the set and love both. As for the drier I have had several over the years, many of which did not last past three years. Granted did not have this obviously that long yet and why I likely purchased the extended warranty for that peace of mind, but of all my dryers the Maytag avocado green I have no idea how old was the only one still worked when sadly gave it away for a new one. Why I purchased Maytag. On this dryer, first I will say the only washer and dryer set I had that fit comfortably, cleaned, and dried a Queen size comforter. Clothes come out perfect. Not over dried and stiff with wrinkles, not under dried and damp, but just dry and pliable to fold. The steam function fantastic as well as the wrinkle free setting; I have not had to break out an iron once! I was told one of a few can use dryer sheets without damaging sensitive parts, which is a bonus. I also love the fact the lint filter is inside in the front. Easy to reach, easy to clean, does not leave dryer dust all over the top of the machine, etc.

Sleek and Quiet Machine
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this set to replace our samungs we had for 7 years. our high end Samsung washer drum broke due to metal fatigue that is common occurrence after 5 to seven years of use. (See YouTube warnings) This May Tag models comes with a 10 year warrantee on the drum assembly and does not have the manufacture defect as the Samsung model. This Maytag set are easy to operate very Efficient and very Quiet, We are hoping this set will last longer than 10 years. They were a little less in cost than the Samsungs. Yes, I would recommend this priduct to Friends and Family

Large and Efficient
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Large dryer. Dries clothes fast. The only downside is that it is huge, so make sure you have the space for it in your laundry room. Also, I hate how on both this appliance and the matching washer, I have to hold down the start button for 3 full seconds before it starts. Might be a safety thing, maybe I can read the manual to change it, but I always stop holding the button a second too short and find out that the load didn't start.

Excellent
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am very happy with this dryer. It is American made, cost competitive and exceptionally easy to operate. The controls include a large, easy to read and understand dial along with temperature, spin cycle and steam settings. Having coped with new equipment that is completely computer setting driven and impossible to understand without a degree in computer technology, this machine is wonderful. It also has a cycle that periodically turns the clothes after the cycle is over and before I get to it, so no more wrinkled clothes.

Dandy Dryer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Our previous machines went out. Quickly went on line and within 2 days Best Buy delivered and set up the Dryer and Washer. We completed all aspects of the transaction on BestBuy.com. Quick, simple and efficient. The features take a moment to learn as they work a bit different than previous model we owned. I have used the steam function for taking out the wrinkle of dress shirts. Works pretty good. Certainly no steam press but ready to wear with no iron required. Downside you can only put in more than 3 shirts. When I go beyond that not all articles are wrinkle fee. Downside- the buzzer tone is low. We have it set on highest volume level and it is hard to hear even in the laundry room. Now that is ridiculous because you multitask when doing laundry and a loud buzzer is a key feature of this type of equipment.

So far, happy I picked Maytag again!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very pleased so far. Quality appears to be high, well made and options are simple to use. Have only had for a month but what I would expect from Maytag. Only 5 years from my Samsung machine.

nice dryer
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dryer is simpler than our last model, which is a Whirlpool, but works about the same. The one thing I would note that could be improved is the way it starts a cycle. You cannot just turn it on and go. Sometimes it takes a couple tries to get it to start after a countdown on the press and hold start. I walked away a few times in the beginning and came back to a dryer that had not done anything. That will probably happen again. Other than starting it, I have no complaints. It does dry my clothes well.

Does a nice job but pay attention to the details
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The dryer is great. Does a nice job drying the load. Sadly, did not pay close enough attention to the little things that I took for granted. There is no light inside the drum so easy to miss items. Also, there is no end of cycle signal, so unless you are paying attention to when it stops, you can forget to take out the load promptly and have to go through the whole re-heat process.

No light. Why?????
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was recommended this set by a close friend. While I have minimal issues with the washing machine, I clearly didn't research the dryer enough before committing. There is no light inside the drum? If you like to sift through your clothes without having to pull the entire load, look for a brand that puts lights inside their dryers. The white "reflective" surface is useless. A room with average lighting is too dark to see inside it. $1500 for the dryer and pedestal and its as useless as it gets. Oh, and it sure creates a ton of dust on the exterior after every load. (And yes, dryer vent is new)
