Maytag Washers & Dryers Reviews

In Nov. 2000 we purchased a Maytag MAH4000AWW washer. Soon after the mold appeared but we wrote it off to bad design. It wasn't until the end of Nov of 2005 that we had our 1st proble- the drive motor burnt out. We called and a repairman replaced the motor for free but we still had the labor cost of $132. We were unaware and unnotified of the lawsuit until our 2nd problem occurred two days ago. The machine will not drain and the clothes have not been run through the spin cycle.

Several hundred in repairs. Damage to tile under the washing machine. It apparently started as a small, unnoticeable leak.

Couple ages 68 & 67 bought new Maytag washer in spring of 2003. Fall of 2005 washer acts up, called repair company, approx $300.00 to fix. Can buy new for that price. We thougth at our age if we got a Maytag it would be the last one we would have to purchase.

On March 11, 1998 I have purchased a Maytag front load washer mod. MAH3000AWW S/N 25100744UF and a dryer mod. MDE3000AYW S/N 12231000UF. The dryer never presented any problems but the washer have continuously several problems. On Jan 4th 2000 the washer had a belt problem, see case # 3880722. On March 13th 2001 the technician had to replace the motor and the motor control board, see case # 4413124. On Aug. 23rd 2001 the technician had to replace the whole main bearing assembly.

I purchased both a Maytag washer and dryer from my local home depot in October of 2004. I was under the false impression that Maytag was a reliable, long lasting appliance that would require little or no maintenance. On December 5th, 2005 I entered my laundry room to find water all over the floor, and flowing into adjacent rooms. I contacted the Maytag Customer Service line, and was taken on a journey of rude conversations, and very unhelpful people.

I purchased a Maytag washer & dryer from Lowes Home Improvement Store. I purchased a Maytag because their quality of work has always been excellent. I have had nothing but trouble with the washer. It is the model Atlantis. First, I had trouble with the fabric softener not working. Then the lid will not engage the washer. I have the repair man there twice. He told me to slam the lid & it would work. He did set something & it worked for awhile. Now it doesn't engage without slamming the lid. Also, now the fabric dispenser dispenses before rinse water is in the washer. I have ruined several items of clothing because of this.

I have a Maytag washer & dryer. About 9 months into ownership of washing machine the clothes would be in the spin cycle & it would start wobbling back from side to side & entire machine would walk across room. We called Maytag & they sent a repair person out to replace springs in drum. After doing this it helped, but not much, I wa told that if it started to do this again to turn off & reshift load, that maybe fine sometimes but not every single time.

I bought a Maytag Washing Machine model SAV515DAWW in Feb. 2004 to the best of my recollecion. 13 months later it starts leaking and it hasn't stopped since. It leaks anytime I use it. I have had to put 3/4 towels around it to make sure that the water does not run into the kitchen. I paid $500 for this machine and I accepted to pay that much because I was led to believe that this brand was very high quality and very dependable. Think again! I called Maytag and they keep referring me to the store where I bought it.

We purchased a Maytag ATLANTIS washer & dryer in Nov 2001. We spent the extra money to buy quality. We have had nothing but trouble with the washer (over and over). I called Maytag to see if they would offer some kind of help (paying for the parts, or a good deal on replacing this lemon. They very bluntly told me NO. I want everyone to know to STAY AWAY FROM MAYTAG. Their quality is terrible, and their customer service is terrible. I'll never buy anything with the Maytag name again.

I purchased a Maytag Atlantis 4 years ago. I purchased Maytag because of its long standing reputation. In four years it has flooded my utility room 3 times. Valves and pump have had to be replaced everytime. Needless to say my floor is ruined and will clost around $500.00 to fix, repairs have far exceeded the value of the machine, but Maytag does not seem to be interested in pleasing their customers. I wouldn't recommend a Maytag if it was the only machine left to buy. After spending about $1300.00 I have a very poor machine!

Never again, now we have oil on the floor that came from who knows what part, we have counted it as a loss, would not recommed a Maytag.

To start I am on my second Maytag Atlantis Model #MAV6300AWW in 4 years. The first lasted 6 months and this one is 4 years old. Well the same problem is occuring that the washer will not agitate and the timer is makeing a constant noise. I spoke to Gina on 5/2 who supposed is supervisor. She told me that the problem had to be diagnosed and I would need to call a repair man. My husband found the problem and it is the transmission. It is a big job to do and takes extenive hours to fix let alone we have to bing the old part and pick up the new one.

I bought the Maytag Atlantis washer about 5 years ago based on the history of my 15 year old Maytag (still going strong for my mother). The Atlantis smoked a belt after 2 years, no problem, and I replaced it. From that point the washer was groaning and making a racket no matter what type of load was in the tub. I didn't think the noise was worth a $100 service call as I figured something was wrong with the transmission. The transmission finally failed and after reading all the complaints online I don't believe it's worth fixing. I also don't believe I'll be buying another Maytag or any other brand they buy. $120 a year for a reputation that is worthless now.

Since the timer is broke the dryer never shuts off, which has lead to extra gas and electric costs and loss of clothes due to shrinking. The dryer can run anywhere from 4-12 hours, if left unattended !!!!

My Atlantis Smells like sewer gases and mold. The machine has never stayed balanced and runs around my laundry room. Like the complaints I've read about the neptune. What's up with that? I bought a Maytag as I was told it was the best. Is that why they have commercials with the lonely maytag service repair man because the don't stand behind their product and ignore complaints?

We purchased our Atlantis washer in March of 2001. It was only 5 monthes later, that a Magtag service man was replacing the motor and transmission on the machine. It is only 3 years old and Iam having trouble with it once more. It is making a high pitch whinning noise. What gets me with Magtag and their service, is that the company every time I have called doesn't care!!!!!! A $800.00 dollar machine shouldn't be having all these problems. Because of their attitude, Iam calling my local T.V. station and seeing if going public with this will help. It's not that I'll ever buy another Magtag, it's just the principle. Magtag, you need another slogen!!!! You are not dependable!!!!!!!!

and the stench is awful. I have not contacted any one at Maytag or Home depot where we bought the washer. The reason we would not be helped with the problem. So here I am informing others not to buy this product since it has become a nightmare. I too, wash my washing machine more than my clothes. My poor husband is beyond himself trying to get to the problem.

thought at first it was the way I was loading the machine that was knocking it off balance it is super sensitive the least thing throws it off. So I made the necessary adjustments. Now however it is becoming an almost constant thing I empty the clothes into the sink then a bit at a time spin them. Maytage have said there is nothing they will do,also complained to the store where I bought the washer they say there is nothing they can do its up to Maytag.

We bought a Maytag Atlantis Quiet Plus washer and dryer Dec 1999 from Sears and got the service agreement. The problem is the washer. The washer was no longer quiet after a years use and it began to migrate/walk during the spin cycle. We have left the house on many occasions to come back and we could not get in the side door because the washer had blocked the path. We have called serveral times and had the same responses that I have read here from not loading the washer properly (after washing laundry for over 20 years)to our floor being not level. Funny thing is that a Whirlpool sat there for 4 years and never had a problem! We have just about the entire bottom replaced springs, stabilizer board etc. All was fine with it not walking but the noice remained. Learned to live with it now there is another noise coming from the washer.

I have had to take off from work 4 days just to have my Maytag appliances serviced. While the machines are still under warranty, my washing machine valve is leaking again and I cannot afford to take another day off work without the risk of losing my job! I am a paralegal employed by a law firm in Santa Monica, California. How does one explain to their boss that they must take a fifth day off work to wait for a washing machine repair technician?

I had to Pay $46.49 for the part including tax and $89.95 for the labor.

In December of 2000 I purchased a new Maytag Atlantis washer and dryer. I have six children and plenty of laundry. I grew up with Maytag products since my mother would only buy the Maytag brand and had given away a 20 year old Maytag washer that was still working when I got a new one. I needed a dependable machine and felt certain that I would receive years of satisfying, dependable service from my Maytag machines. Unfortunately, this is far from what has happened. The dryer has been fine, but my washer began having problems about 1 year after I purchased them. It began with a noise that just didn't sound right when it was in the spin cycle.

My wife and I purchased a Maytag Atlantis Stainless Washer a few years back and we have had service call after service call. During the warranty period the local service company came out, repaired the problems, but never documented any of them with Maytag National. Here we are again, having to figure out how to make this thing work through the holidays (July 4th). Maytag appliances are not what they used to be. Maytag has done very little, even during the warranty period to rectify the problem, except to get the washer going again. They are reluctant to give credits for crap machines and just say oh well it's out of warranty now.

On Aug.12,2000 I purchased a MaytagAlantis washing machine from Sears. From March,2002 to Feb.2003 I have had 11 service calls on it, with the replacement of the Tempature Control Switch being replaced 3 times. It has now went down again. I recieved a letter from Ms.Bowerman saying that Maytag would replace it if any machanical problems occured within one year of Feb.7,2003. It's gone down again ( same problem), I call her, she tells me she wants to send one out that is comparible to mine, as they have quit making the atlantis. The one she wants to send me is not comparible money-wise.

In 2001 we purchased a Maytag Atlantis Washer Machine first i noticed it would not rinse on certian cycle's and now it's staining my clothes with some black marks. I had an independent repair man come today 3/31/03 to see it and he said he thought it was the transmission and it would cost over two hundred dollars and i strongly fell that i purchased the Maytag washer machine to make a good investment for my money and now i dont know what to do i have a family of 10 help!!!!!!!!and with a family that large you know i really need a good washer maching i cant even imagine what i will go through at a laundromat this friday help!!
