Maytag Ranges/Ovens Reviews

Bought a stove in May of 2014. In July of 2014 we noticed a 1"x6" stain inside the glass of the oven door. I called Maytag and they stated only 30 day warranty on cosmetic flaws. I said this was not there when we bought it. They asked if anything had boiled over because if liquids get in the vents on the oven door it can get in between the glass. I stated "no, only cleaned with Stainless steel clear." They stated most likely when I sprayed the door it ran down in between the glass. I said that is a flaw. They said, "no the vents are there to allow heat out." I asked if they also were designed to let liquids inside the glass, they said no, I said "design flaw." They will do nothing. I also pointed out that nowhere in the owners manual is there a reference to this possibly happening. Our son's in laws have a 3 year old LG stainless steel with vents and have never had this problem. Maytag will not stand behind their products even when they are the ones at fault. Buy a different brand.

About a month or 2 after the warranty ran out - the main burner on the stove stopped working. I called Maytag to find out why and what the part would cost. They told me that they could send a repair tech out with the part for $450.00. I almost fell over. I have never been so disappointed with the stove. The glass top is impossible to keep clean and I had recently had the repair man out from the repair service that I normally use. He told me that it was not the starter that didn't work but the whole heating element was gone. So now I have a glass top electric stove with only 3 burners. Such a shame. Next time I will look into the cost of repairs for my appliances before I buy.

In the process of self cleaning mode, oven died with door locked. Thermostat and thermal fuse went out, couldn't get oven door open or control the situation in any way except pray for no fire and wait for hours till oven cooled down. Door could not be opened, it died in lock mode. Called repairman, already in to 2 repair bills, still not operating. Called Whirlpool and Maytag, no help!! But amazingly they have created a new kit for the blower unit in this oven, model # Mew7527AW00. I paid a bunch of money for this oven, which replaced a 40 yr. old oven that had been in it's place, operating fine, but it was Aqua Blue!! It's so sad that a huge Company as this will not help with an almost new Oven??

I purchased a range 5 months ago. It is STAINLESS STEEL. It began to rust. I called customer service and they told me it was cosmetic, so they won't help. I think a stainless steel range should not rust after 5 months. Very disappointed, WILL NEVER BUY MAYTAG Again.

We bought a freestanding Maytag gas range and oven two years ago for our lake house, where we stay approximately two months out of the year. The oven has been used probably six or seven times total. The gas range works fine, and the oven pilot light goes on, gas seems to be flowing, but the oven does not get warm. It registers 200 degrees, but there is no heat inside it at all. $300 to fix!

Maytag Model #MGR7662 range - We inherited this oven when we bought my mother-in-law's house 2 years ago. We had to get a thermometer to keep in the oven since the temperature is never consistent and is usually 50-100 degrees lower than the digital readout. We will be replacing this oven as soon as we can and it will NOT be a Maytag.

Have been very disappointed. The burners keep going out. The repairman said a bug could crawl on the element and break it. Then the temperature on burner on it works from med to high and any lower no heat. The dual burner is now backwards. The oven handle keeps falling off. Worst range I ever had and I thought it was a step up to Maytag.

I bought a Maytag Gemini double oven gas range 5 burners (model MGT8885XS000), even air true convection cooking. Within 4 months, 1 of the gas valves (knobs to turn gas on with) froze. I could not turn one of the top burners off. Maytag came out and fixed it. Three months later, another one froze. Again Maytag came out and fixed it. Our warranty ended. Over the next year, all five burner valves have frozen. I called Maytag, told them what happened. The most they could do for me was to give me the part half off. So I can pay $200.00 for parts and pay for a repairman to come out and fix it. The oven cost $2,000.00. I am still paying for it. Chances are if I repaired it would break again.

I purchased this five-burner gas stove two years ago. I have this stove repaired three times. The first and second problem with the stove is when I turned on the oven, it would never click on. This was a month after I purchased the stove. They sent someone over to correct the problem and that did not work. The third time someone came. He changed something in the oven and it started to work. After that, I continue to have trouble with the oven. When I have the top eyes on, the oven will not work. When I only turn on the oven, it will go to 350 only. It will cook for an half hour and then cut off. I smell gas in my house and my food is smelling like gas. I have stop using the oven. I did not purchase a stove to not use the oven. This is totally ridiculous!!! I am tired of this situation. Maytag needs to recall these ovens, so I can purchase an oven that works. I have thrown food away because it smells like gas - because the oven will cut off in the middle of cooking. I am very tired of this situation and when you call Maytag, their customer service is terrible. I will never buy Maytag's products again. Please help.

The oven works. However, there are two safety issues. First, the flat metal panel above the air vent and below the instrument panel gets extremely HOT. This is the location we can easily touch, especially when we operate the instrument panel. We almost burned our hands. Second, the edges of the unit are very SHARP. We almost cut our legs. These are serious safety issues. In addition, we/I tried to post a review at Maytag site pointing out these safety issues. The review was twice "moderate" (i.e., rejected). Even though I used to like Maytag, this experience changed my mind.

I have always stored clean dishtowels and oven mitts in the storage drawer of my ovens (for over 50 years). I bought a new Maytag (2 days old) and was cooking in the oven tonight. I opened the drawer to get a mitt and it was on fire!! I am shocked. How dangerous is that! I looked over the manual and there is nothing that says towels cannot be stored in the drawer. It was literally on fire. I emptied the contents of the drawer into the sink. Has anyone else had this problem?

Maytag Free Standing 30-inch Gas Range - In 2004 we bought our model MGR5775QDS gas range with 5-burners because it offered the most BTU variety for the price: 1 burner with a high BTU (16K), 1 with low (5K), plus 2 in mid-range (9.5K) and 1 with 12K. Within half a year of using the oven, we turned on the self-cleaning function. Big mistake. One cleaning cycle later, our oven refused to ignite. The cleaning cycle burned out the ignition unit. Can't remember if it's replacement then was under warranty but the repairman said this was a COMMON PROBLEM with Maytag and we best not use it EVER. In 2014 our cleaning lady mistakenly thinking she was doing us a favor, set the self-cleaning function. Once again, the ignition unit was destroyed. This time it's replacement was $350 with part and labor.

I own my oven for 10 years. It still looks brand new. The bottom oven went out and they do not sell the replacement parts anymore. I think it's terrible that I had to go and buy a new oven when mine still looks brand new.

#Mgt8885x500 Maytag Gemini. After oven heats up, racks fall. What should I do. This is a safety issue. Help, afraid to use oven.

The tips of the grates blister and chips have replaced the grates, but the problem recurs. Maytag claims not to have heard complaints about this problem.

I purchase my first glass top stove; a Maytag. It came with a 10 year warranty on all elements and the glass top. As this is a first glass top I read through all instructions, there appeared no real warnings on what to do to maintain the glass; or rather what would damage or void a warranty. I simmered some maple syrup, and as it so often does when reaching the proper temperature, it boiled over. On a regular burner, one just uses a little elbow grease and your stove is returned its previous state. This actually pitted the glass, and as the warranty people at Maytag informed me voided the warranty, and seriously weakened the glass top suggesting it would be likely to break. Seriously?????? All of us boil stuff over on the stove top from time to time, and this damages the glass top and voids a warranty??? VERY DISAPPOINTED in Maytag's product and their warranty.

Maytag Range Precision Touch Control 800 Electric Smoothtop - The racks in the oven fall down. I have replaced them with new ones but am having the same problem. I emailed my concerns to Maytag a few months ago but didn't get any response (so perhaps I didn't go to the right site). The oven was purchased in early 2008 and this is the only problem I have had with it. If I am extremely careful, I can bake cookies but if I try baking or roasting anything heavy, the racks fall. It is very frustrating but I was "pleased", for lack of a better word, to see that someone else was having the same problem - at least I know it isn't just me. I will try contacting Maytag again.

Oven racks falling down and there's appears to be no solution because the interior liner of the oven has warped. The 3rd party repair guys tell me the interior liner needs to be replaced, it's not worth the repair cost, I'm better off shopping for a new set. It's so unfortunately that this happened (we moved into this house with existing appliances that we cannot use...) and it seems to be a common problem, yet Maytag claims they have NOT received any complaints about this.

I have written to Whirlpool about complaints with this range and was very dissatisfied with response. The following were complaints on above range: Range does not have a light on it as the past ranges had. It is very much needed. Grates on burner are to high, therefore it takes longer for items in pot to heat up. Type of steel used on range is very thin and tiny, in other words very poor quality. This is what has happened since Whirlpool bought out Maytag. Quality of Steel that Maytag used is no longer since Whirlpool took over their products. This is true of All their Appliances (Refrigerators, Washers, Dryers, and Ranges). All meaning appliances manufactured by Whirlpool.

We purchased the Maytag double oven 30 inch 5 burner, stainless steel, model MGT8885XS. Oven worked good for six weeks. The igniter broke in the bottom oven and when the third party non-Maytag repairman came out to fix it, he was unable to remove the bottom oven door. It is not flush and heat escapes when the bottom oven is on and it causes the top oven to get condensation. The repair man was directed from a technician from Whirlpool that he had to order a new seal and hinges. I don't want it fixed. I want a new one. I have called Customer Service for Whirlpool and the third party and the store in which I bought it from and everyone is pushing it off onto someone else. Customer service is poor and stated they will only fix the oven and will not send us a new oven. We sent our rebate in the mail which was to arrive within 8 weeks and we have yet to receive it. Very poor customer service. Glad I purchased the 4 year warranty. I will never buy Maytag again.

Like so many other consumers, I was drawn to the Maytag name because of what I thought was the high quality of their products and their stellar reputation. So when our old wall-mount oven failed, I sought out a replacement from the Maytag line. I purchased a model MEW5530WDDB17 in 2011 and had it professionally installed. It worked well for a couple of years. Then, suddenly, three of the numbers on the digital control panel stopped working, making it impossible to set the oven to any temperature that included a 4, a 2 or a 5. When I contacted Maytag, I was informed that the unit was out of warranty, but that I could schedule a service call. I had already researched this issue online and knew that the service person would inform me that I needed a new control board and that one could be installed for around $300, and that the new board would come with a 90 day warranty. When I asked the person to whom I was speaking, she said that she had no further information for me. I know that a lot of others have had this same issue with their Maytag range/ovens, and many of them agree with me that we will never purchase another Maytag product.

I have a Maytag Range that I bought new and installed 6-1/2 yrs ago for over $1200.00. I am single so I rarely use the ovens. The upper over I use maybe 1-2 times a month and the lower oven I may use once a month. The night of 3/7/2016, I used the cleaning cycle set on medium for both ovens. Yesterday, when I went to wipe the ovens down, I found the lower heating elements, on both ovens, had snapped.

Maytag Oven MGR8670WS1 - Purchased in the Fall of 2011 (along with a fridge... also faulty the freezer stopped working within a year). I've had the oven stop working twice (in 2012). This week (spring 2014) would be the third time. It seems to be a faulty ignitor already replaced having to be replaced yet again. I have never used such faulty appliances EVER and never AGAIN. This is absolutely ridiculous.

After the waranty ran out, oven failed to ignite. Called repairman who couldn't diagnose problem. Broiler works. Replaced some kind of wire & part for $350. Good for 6 months. Happening again. Paid a lot for this oven.

I purchased a Maytag electric range model # MER8775AS in Feb 2012. While boiling syrup, the pan overflowed onto the oven door. As I began to clean up the spill I noticed that some of the spill had gotten inside the door on the inside of the oven glass. To remove the stain would require disassembly of the door. I called Maytag and complained of what I called a design flaw and they said, "No, it's your fault for spills entering the door." They even sent a condescending email to me informing me that if I needed to purchase parts, where I could get them. I designed appliances for years and this is another example of poor quality and lack of consumer service. I AM DONE WITH MAYTAG.

Dinner ruined again... I bought all brand new Maytag stove MERS755RAW, I can only use one area and that has can't move them, the racks fall through. I have burned myself time after time when attempting to pull the racks in or out. Friends arrived and when we pulled cooked dinner out the rack fell through and it was so hot I could not hold it causing the entire dinner to come crashing down and spilling everywhere. I along with my family cannot use it again. Can anyone assist or make a recommendation? New racks do not work as it appears that oven has expanded and the dimension have changed. Do they have a recall or safety repair bulletin?

I purchased my home in 2008 at which time I bought all brand new Maytag appliances, well the above the stove microwave I've had to replace the door handle because it broke off and the oven I can only use the very top or bottom to cook on and I can't move them, otherwise the racks will fall through. I have burned myself numerous times as I can't pull the racks in or out and I found that out cooking dinner and when I pulled it out the rack fell through and my dinner went crashing down and splashed everywhere. Due to this fact I hardly ever use it. I contacted Maytag with no help, told me to buy new racks and those did the same thing so it was a $100. It seems as though the liner can't handle the self clean heat and if you look at my oven, the left side is pushed in. If anyone gets help with this issue please let me know. My model number is MERH865RAS serial # 14348133LX. Oh and my refrigerator is a side by side and I have had to have it repaired twice because my food kept thawing out. That model number is MSD2651KES serial 60869476LV all of these are Maytag products and were purchased brand new from Home Depot.

Maytag wall oven Model# MEW7530AB01 - We ordered this oven from Home Depot on Aug. 28/13. It was delivered on Sept.7/13. After a self clean cycle, the oven failed on Sept. 24/13. It was repaired on Oct. 23/13. Parts come from U.S. I'm in Canada. Part # W10545255. It hadn't cleaned completely so I used the self clean mode again on Oct. 24/13. Oven failed. Fixed again on Nov. 15/13. Same part. Tested self clean again. Oven failed. Repairman fixed a different part. Thermostat #4449751. Oven still not working, had to order the front fuse again. Part # W10545255. Fixed Nov.19/13. Failed again Nov. 19/13. After not having a working oven for so long, Maytag finally agreed to send a new one. It arrived Dec.5/13. Tried cleaning cycle just to make sure. Oven failed. Same part.

I purchased a Whirlpool oven. It is still under warranty at present. I used the self-clean oven feature just before Christmas, it wasn't that dirty but I wanted to have it clean for Christmas. The glass panels on the door had no stain or grease on it, until I used the self-clean feature, and now there is black staining inside the glass. This oven is not even 9 months old, and you cannot clean in between the glass. My second complaint which I believe is a very poor design on Whirlpool’s end is that the steam vents are very sharp. When I went to wipe off the black splash panel just under the vent tube, I cut my baby finger twice!!! And it is impossible not to slice your pinky.

We purchased our double free standing gas range about 6 years ago. Our top oven went out about 4 years after purchase. We purchased the extended warranty from Sears and it was fixed at no charge. About a year later, the top oven would not work again. We called Sears, our warranty was up so it would be a repair that we would have to pay for. We decided to go with the Maytag repair service since it is a Maytag appliance and we had to pay anyway. The repairman came in and said that the top box that holds the electronic in it had fried wires and it would have to be replaced. So for $480, he could replace it. It was more than likely caused by a power surge.

I cannot use my Maytag gas range and oven appliance until I can purchase part #W10213446, which your factory website shows as back-ordered until 2020. This means that I can't cook a meal or have the family and friends I've invited come to my home for Christmas dinner. I need your help to provide better customer service than I've received to date through working with the Maytag customer service call center, and the service Maytag parts distributors Reliable Parts and WC May company have received from working through your factory website.

The steam/heat produced by the oven has made the electronic (digital) control panel buckle. Yes! This is a thousand-dollar (plus) stove, and it has warped, through no fault of mine. When I want to cook something, I press the keypad to enter the number of cooking degrees that I want. The problem is, the control board is not working correctly. Regardless of my typing in 350, it will default to 100 degrees and stay at 100.

Almost one year to the date of purchase, my Maytag glass top range stopped working. The oven is still operational, but the range top does not work. The knobs turn and the surface lights go on but the elements no longer heat up. Trying to get a response from a real person at Maytag was impossible. I was put through a myriad of prompts that led me to scheduling a service appointment. I called AppliancesMart and got a wonderful sales person who said a service call would cost me 60 to 80 dollars and that he had not heard of repairs below $300 for this type of problem. Needless to say I am very angry and disappointed that I had not done more research before I purchased this item. If I can prevent one more person from making this same mistake, I will get some modicum of satisfaction out of this horrible experience.

Purchased this maytag oven from home depot November 2011. Oven has been working properly since install. The top burner controls do operate too easy and you can just brush up against the stove and turn the gas on which I seen here was mentioned. My major issue is the stainless steel finish that was applied. It appears that this metal was not properly prepared prior to applying the finish. The oven door is with rust blisters. The metal under the coating is causing this problem. The finish in the other areas is with no problems... No chemicals have been used to clean this oven.

Updated on 02/13/2021: Maytag stove purchased 15 years ago for about $500. Replaced "mother board" about 5 years ago which wasn't cheap, but otherwise, stove has performed with no problems and still looks and behaves like a new stove.

Bought a new maytag gas range march 2013 model #mgr8674ab. The oven would not light at all. Would just click. Still under warranty. Called the service. They came and had to replace the controls in back. 2 months later the same thing, only this time it comes on and goes right back off. Then a week ago got it to light, used the oven and tried to turn it off and it would go off but immediately light up again. Scary to say the least. Another call to service. They are coming tomorrow. This is November 12 2013. I would not buy another maytag gas stove. There is something terribly wrong with this model.

Electronic control board fried after 3 yrs on Maytag Gemini range - certain buttons on control board would not set for ovens. Called Maytag, said was not covered, past 1 year warranty. Recommended repair shops, all overpriced. The piece cost between $300-500 for a 3 year old stove. Cheapest repairman wanted 90 to install piece. Ordered piece online and replaced it myself with help from YouTube video. Maytag has lousy repair records lately. Of 4 Maytag appliances purchased in 3 yr kitchen remodeling… already had issues with 3 of them. Do not recommend Maytag anymore!

All in all I have liked my electric range, but I have 2 issues that I am having trouble resolving. I bought the range in 2003 and to find the model number I have to pull the range out from the cupboards on each side which would be extremely difficult under the circumstances. The reason I want to get the model number is so that I might find replacement parts for the door's edging that has flaked and rusted and is quite unattractive.

When I went to whip down the small shelve under the knobs, I cut my finger on the sharp metal. Was told that is the oven vent. Checked out your instruction book and found NO mention on that being a danger and to take care when cleaning. If I had been informed of that sharp metal piece I don't think I would have looked at your stove. The metal has razor sharp edges on both sides making it almost impossible to get too close to cleaning it. That shelf is a nice place to collect dust, grease and food boil overs and now I have to be extremely careful about cleaning. Thanks to someone's not thinking in their designing. The stove is what I wanted other than that one fault.

I am fairly happy with this range's performance. I do have a couple of issues on the design. I would like to be able to simmer at a lower temp on a front burner, as I use a large stock pot and a pressure canner occasionally. The smaller BTU burners are on the back and the large pots do not fit over them. I haven't noticed any problems with the upper oven's performance...seems to do what I ask it to, including the broiler. I have not tried the lower oven or the convection feature at all yet. Nor have I had to use the self-cleaning feature, yet...almost afraid to after reading other people's nightmares, though.

Maytag range model mer8875ws - Glass top broke on brand new oven over most used burner then glass spider lined out from there. Wife called Maytag and they told her that it broke from the impact of something dropping on it. I guess the man was psychic because he had no picture of SO CALLED IMPACT SITE. Now they won't replace or fix range, ** Maytag. Paid 699 for range they want to charge me 900 to fix. MMOOORROOONNSS! Like ** that's how big business treats everyone now. That's how big business treats people these days.

The paint (stainless steel) on the top panel surrounding the digital screen is deteriorating from the heat and steam from light cooking. This happened the first time I used one of the back burners for light simmering. I purchased the range in December 2011, but had not used the back burners because I don't cook large meals. The black paint on the range top is also easily scratched when moving the grates for cleaning. This product has defective paint and Maytag has NOT responded to my questions sent to them by email. I will never purchase another Maytag product NOR will I purchase appliances from HOME DEPOT again. Home Depot should not sell shoddy products!

If there was a zero star rating available, that is what I would select! We purchased this range along with a complete kitchen ensemble for a remodel of our kitchen in December of 2011. Within a few months of purchase the enamel finish started blistering, flaking and peeling. Upon contacting Whirlpool Corp about the problem through their online chatline, email, regular mail and phone, we were informed (quite rudely I might add) that Whirlpool does not warranty cosmetic deficiencies over 30 days after product purchase.

My oven smelled for weeks after being installed. The first time I self cleaned, the oven stopped working and the door remained locked. It took weeks to get it repaired because we needed a part that had to be ordered. The second time we self cleaned, the oven smoked, set off smoke alarm that had to be disconnected, the control panel bulged, and the door locked. It was Sunday. I wrote a nasty email to Maytag. The service man who came Monday could not unlock the door, and said he had to order a part and would return the next Tuesday if the part arrived.

We do not use the range daily. Our household consists of only two persons. First time we operated the self-cleaning feature on the oven the outer pane of the double glass pane door had what appeared to be grease stains and dirt. In as much as it is a SEALED double pane glass door there is no access to the outer pane to clean it. The double range was only 16 months old and was purchased at RC Willey in Henderson, NV. We also purchased ALL Maytag appliances for our kitchen i.e. refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, washer and dryer on the same date. In addition we purchased furniture for the entire house at RC Willey.

I owned my double oven Maytag Gemini for 14 months and I was absolutely satisfied with it. I was running a cleaning mode on the bottom oven and the lock froze. I have tried everything with it to unfreeze it, including the suggestions offered on the internet. I haven't been able to do it on my own and I cannot afford to hire a repairman. I called the help line offered by Maytag (after waiting for 32 minutes), the representative actually laughed at me when he found out it was past the 12-month warranty. Though this laugh may be unusual, I feel it is very indicative of the way Maytag handles any problems; Maytag doesn't stand behind their items, they are now built shoddily and they could really care less about retaining their customer base.

Haven't even used the range yet and the paint is peeling off of the top. I have had the repair guy out. The new top piece of the range arrived with peeling paint also. I put in a claim to have the range replaced and was told they would contact me in 24 to 48 hours. That never happened and so I called again. They said that they would call and, of course, it didn't happen. I paid $1,300 for a stove that looks horrible with the paint is peeling off of it. What kind of ** is Sears selling? Maytag is owned by Whirlpool and nobody wants to make this right.

Wow, my dream oven, or now nightmare! I purchased a Maytag dbl oven MGR6775BDS in 2007. The top oven stopped working first after about 3 years and this week, the bottom. I cooked a meal on Monday and Wednesday. Without notice, it would not go past pre-heat. I have called several people and they all act as if this was a truly unique situation. Since I have been out of work, both my regular and extended warranty have expired. I had good faith in a product that carried the name Maytag and the fact that it was on "sale" for $1,200. I didn't know I had so much company. Yeah, I was told I could purchase a repair warranty for the sale price of $340. Oh yeah, I replaced a 20+ year old oven for the new and stainless dbl oven of my dreams.

We purchased a $700 Maytag range 2 years ago and recently the oven did not work. After a Maytag authorized tech came out and checked the unit, he proclaimed the circuit board was bad and needed to be replaced. Since these ovens only have a 1-year warranty - regardless of the price you pay - he said it would be over $450 to repair it. When I asked why so expensive, he stated that they don't price the parts - Maytag does. I decided I could buy a new range for that price and get one with a warranty so I passed. I then decided to contact Maytag because I was very disappointed that such a reputable brand would prove so faulty.

We purchased a Maytag gas range, only to have the paint wash off the front trim of the oven door. The digital panel went out in the second year of use and is apparently expensive to replace. After going through reviews by other owners and discussions with repairmen, it was determined that these panels only last about a year and are defective. This problem is extensive with Maytag. My brother was a repairman for them and dropped them due to poor quality of workmanship in appliances and their dishonest approach to warranties. I should have known better. Don't ever buy Maytag!!!

I bought an off-white or light cream color gas Maytag stove about three years ago. When I first used it to boil some water for tea, the light colored grills turned black. And this is without cooking a full meal, merely boiling water. After a few more uses with light cooking, and a few spills on the cooktop, I discovered that it was simply impossible to clean. The glass on the oven door became discolored with the first use, and is also impossible to clean. I purchased several types of cleaning items and sponges, and nothing works. This is a disgusting stove. I hate it and I wish I never bought it. I will never purchase a Maytag anything ever again. It's the poorest and cheapest no-quality item - a total waste of money.

This range and oven get unsafe, very hot on the surface and sides. Also, first time we used the oven, our oven mitts and bbq tools caught fire in the storage drawer.

I purchased Model #MGR7661XB (Gas Cooktop and Oven) in November 2009. From the very beginning, we realized it was a mistake and looking back, we should have sent it back.

Maytag gas range model #MGR8670XS 1 - I would not recommend this range. We bought it new and when I used the self clean oven, it did not work. It took four months to get this resolved. I self cleaned again, and I had to clean the oven by hand. It did not clean very well at all. I wish I had my old oven back.

I bought this Maytag oven (MEW 7627HB) to replace a 20-year-old GE double oven. Upon the first use, I found that it has noisy cooling fans which run continuously as soon as it is turned on and, for some time, after it is turned off. These fans make an irritating, loud, whistling noise. The dealer responded to my complaint, pulled the oven out and performed a complete system test. He then called engineers at the Whirlpool factory, who told him that the fans were a recent redesign made because the previous design didn't satisfactorily cool the electronic control circuit and that there was nothing to be done about the noise. After several weeks, the oven, when in use, continues to stink of overheated electronics. I fear it won't last long.

Maytag in general has gone from being reputable in the early 70's to being the epitome of a rip-off company that sells junk, then refuses to stand behind it. I have a Maytag Washer and dryer. The washer continually goes out of balance and spins across the floor. Repair people tell us that our floor is not strong enough - funny, our new Samsung washer has no apparent issues with the floor or anything else. Our Maytag Gemini is a piece of crap. The ovens do not work or heat up most days. Maytag pushes replacing an EOC board at $800.00, but then the part is not available. Stove is not even six years old. Maytag is a synonym for "junk".

Maytag stove MGR7662WW - I purchased this stove about 4 years ago. Now, the stove will not light. I called in to Maytag only to be told I must pay a service fee or purchase a repair manual. It’s very strange. My old Kenmore lasted 22 years and here I thought Maytag would at least last 10 years less than half the life of my old stove, realizing products today are not what they used to be. Maytag, the dependability people, I guess that old Maytag commercial where the Maytag repairman is so bored claiming no one needs service for a Maytag product is really false advertising. Buy American products; I’m not really sure who is the current country who is home to the great Maytag corporation. I guess me and my wife will spend another $700 on another brand stove and try this process all over again, hopefully not again in approx 4 years.

I totally understand the technology age. We need to move forward as a country and keep up with modern technology. But somebody please tell me why this means companies have the right to not stand by their products? Why do consumers have to pay the price for bad products and companies leaving us high & dry? My husband & I were excited to redo our kitchen. We bought all new appliances in November 2011 - all Maytag. In December 2012 (13 months after we bought them), we started having issues with the oven. The oven would not maintain the proper temperature. We called a service man in January 2013. He deduced it was the computer board so he replaced it. Cost to us - $350 (including service call and labor).

I purchased my Maytag double oven (MEW6627DDB) in November 2008. In January 2013, with a setting on 375, it heated to 440 in 15 minutes. The repairman said $650 because it needs a new control panel and 2 new sensors, one for each oven. I contacted Maytag as I felt this oven should not have gone out in 4 years. I spoke with Ebony and then a supervisor, Vana. Basically, I was told that since I didn't purchase an extended warranty, there was nothing they could do. While I have a freezer 40 years old and still going strong, I realize that appliances manufactured many years ago were much more reliable.

From the beginning, the blower motor (for the control panel? never needed one before) was too noisy. I just bought the oven from Lowe’s. They sent out a repairman. He replaced the motor, but has exactly the same level of noise. It is bad design/engineering. I'm going to try some other brand. One problem is that you can't listen to the fan noise before you buy the oven and install it. And there are no decibel requirements or ratings. Industry regulations need improvement. Model MEW7527A, bought new in Dec. 2012.

I purchased a new Maytag range (gas) in June of 2012 - 6 months ago. I have had the same problem many others have had (as I've just read) with the toxic smell every time I used the oven. I was told it was just the chemical burning off from being new. I have never owned a new oven so I took their word for it. On Christmas day, my kids and I were going to bake cookies and set the oven to preheat. Flames and black smoke were shooting out of the range, and the fire department was called. Even after the fire department put out the fire and removed the stove from my kitchen to my front porch, they spent more time investigating the situation to make sure my home was safe than the "certified Maytag repair person" that was dispatched out by Maytag to service the range.

We purchased a Maytag Gas range MGR8674AB in November 2012. The contents of the drawer (oven mitts, trivets, hot pads) caught on fire. As we pulled out the drawer, it scorched the front of the range.

I purchased the gas stove in June of 2012 from Home Depot, along with a Maytag microwave (Model MGR7662WB4). Home Depot installed both items. After trying to reach into the microwave about the stove, the knob would turn itself on with me brushing up against it. This happened several times, and one time the flame shot up and I almost got burned. The last time it happened, I did not realize that the knob was turned very slightly and gas was coming out of the burner for several hours. If it were not for a friend stopping over, I would not have considered the odor being from the stove. I assumed that the drains were probably backed up and started to add cleaners to the toilet bowls. I had to open the windows for several hours to get the smell out. So I called customer service 2 times. The first person said I would have to pay for the call if the problem was not Maytag and I said, “Forget it.”

After only 4 years, the door handle of my $1200 range simply fell off. This seems to be a common problem with this range (Maytag Gemini Electric Double Oven), but what is inexplicable is why a part that perhaps is exposed to the most amount of pressure on a daily basis (opening and closing the oven door) would be held on with a plastic fitting! It seems like planned obsolescence to me. Apparently, the part is $100 (once shipping is included) from Maytag and for that I get the pleasure of taking the entire door apart to install it! Garbage.

I purchased my Maytag gas range (model number mGR7665WB) on Thanksgiving 2011! It worked fine until May 2012. Then the bake function just stopped working. If I select bake, the temperature fails to rise above 100F and a sickening gas smell fills the kitchen! PC Richards, where I purchased the product from, sent a repairman who took two weeks and two visits to fix the part! Everything was working fine until six months later during cooking for a full house on the day of my daughter's birthday party. Same problem, bake function failed again along with gas smell!

We too bought a Maytag range (MER5755QAW) approximately 5 years ago. While making Christmas dinner, it quit working. The oven would not heat. Too bad it had to quit that day (or at all for that matter). Unfortunately, every single appliance I bought for my house 5 years ago is a Maytag appliance! The microwave quit last month and I have yet to replace it. I bought Maytag because for the longest time it was such a positive household brand name. Unfortunately, with 2 appliances less than 5 years old and out of warranty, I will never purchase one of their products again! I will spend the extra money and go with LG especially after reading some of the reviews on here on Maytag’s products (there are over 192 complaints on the Maytag ranges and ovens alone on this one forum).

I can see by the comments on this page that the letter I sent to Whirlpool was in vain. I purchased a Maytag double oven gas range (MGT8775XW00) from our local Lowe's. We were remodeling a home we had purchased. Unfortunately (as anyone who's been involved in home remodeling/renovation knows well), it took much longer than I thought it would before range could be installed. It was several months later before it was installed. First time I tried to use the top oven, it would heat to set temp (I assume) and then shut down. The larger bottom oven had erratic heating. I tried adjusting oven temps but it was a guessing game. We had Fix-Rite Corp out twice and they were puzzled by the problem. Two times, they replaced the control panel.

We have had the oven, a Maytag Gemini Double Oven model mgt8775xs02, for 3 weeks now and I am so upset. First off, I became violently sick from the oven when we first used it. I had a horrible headache and then nauseousness and then the worst stomach problems I have ever had. The toxic smells coming from the oven were too much for me. We had every window open. I looked online and found other people who reacted the same way to their "new oven smell". But now we are on the 4th time using the oven. We did a self-clean and I thought that would help but no, it smells like someone is pouring gasoline into my home. I smelled it in pockets throughout my house. I have had the gas company out twice and a repairman. They all cannot figure out the problem. I looked online to see if other people were having a gas problem from this model and I am not finding it. It is horrible. I feel like I am being poisoned. I have not had a working oven in 2 and half years and I was so excited to get this oven and now my new oven is making me so sick. I am not sure what to do from here.

The unit was purchased in 2010. Within 6 months, the keypad is not working. Lowe's is unwilling to resolve the issue. The repair tech called in and replaced the memory board, $250.00. Three weeks later, same problem. The touch pad was replaced, $243.00. About three weeks later, same problem. The unit was unplugged. I can't afford to repair the unit and can't afford to replace it. Six months later, both the memory board and touchpad were replaced, $480.00. Three weeks later, same problem. The unit is in the trash and I will never buy another Maytag product nor will I, as a general contractor, ever install a Maytag product in any project that I am engaged in. Maytag is totally unwilling to resolve the issue. Extremely not customer-friendly.

This model MGR5875QDW range is very difficult to use. When you press "broil" for instance, the display says "set." There is absolutely no indication of how to set. Therefore, no "broil". The same thing happens when you try to use the "clean" function. It is virtually impossible to use the control panel; it is just too difficult. Therefore, most of the functions are not usable.

We have a Maytag Gemini Double Oven Range Model MGR6775ADW. This is a gas range and it was purchased in 2006. This past Saturday afternoon after cleaning the dishes, the igniters on the range starting ticking on their own. I checked to make sure the knobs were not on and they weren't. The ticking finally stopped after about 2 minutes. After the ticking stopped, we planned on going out for a walk. Fortunately we didn't. In about 10 minutes after the igniters quit ticking, the range burst into flames. Flames were in the top oven and shooting out the vent holes and the holes where the knobs are located. Coal black smoke was also pouring out of the vents.

In a way, l feel fortunate and you will read why in a minute. l have been reading Maytag complaints specifically looking to see if what happened to me has happened to others. Apparently, it has. We purchased our Maytag range, model MER57750AB, in 2005. We too have had some repairs done under warranty. Unfortunately, we live in a day and age where technology isn't always our friend. The old appliances that were not electronically driven lasted forever; today's appliances do not. However, when something with potentially serious consequences happens that is not technology related, it rates in the 'who is the idiot who designed that?' category. I am talking about the exploding exterior glass oven doors.

We bought a Maytag Gemini double oven in June 2007. It has been a problem from day one. It arrived with a damaged door. They reordered and replaced it. Through the next few months, I became very discouraged with the oven. I bake a good bit and was always used to an oven with fairly accurate temperature. This oven will not reach or sometimes just won't maintain a steady temperature. After a couple of service calls, I gave up. I now raise the temperature setting about 50-75 degrees higher that the recipe requires.

We bought a Maytag gas range in Feb of 2011. Shortly after that, we started having an intermittent problem with the oven not maintaining the temperature. It sometimes would not heat up to the proper temp or sometimes would get there but not maintain it. We have had several service calls all for this same problem. Each time they would replace things... nothing worked! We called Maytag and they said they wouldn't replace the unit until the same part had failed 3 times. Well, the service company came out 5-6 different times in the first year and replacing the main panel twice and the sensor and some other thingies I don't even remember. Pretty soon the warranty was running out, so I bought an extended warranty due to the fact that the unit had never been fixed. They sent out two different service companies who also were unable to fix the unit. It is now 18 months since we bought it, and Maytag refuses to do anything since "it is out of warranty" and the extended warranty company will only replace the unit up to 75% of its cost. So yes, we are very angry with Maytag and the way they won't stand behind their product and their total disregard for their customers.

I bought a Maytag range (MET-8775) last year, because my wife loves to bake and wanted the "double" oven. The oven never did brown properly, despite trying different temperatures and cookware. So, I called the 1-800 number in the manual. I was told they would have a technician come out and check it, and they assured me it was under warranty. The technician arrived, and since it was close to the end of the warranty period, I showed him the receipt for purchase. I got another assurance that this visit was covered by the warranty, before anything was actually done. Well, he checked it out and eventually calibrated the temperature. That helped a little, but still, it doesn't brown very well.

I have a Maytag Precision double oven 850 series. The upper oven handle does not fit snugly and has been broken 4 times. I have had to order 4 new handles because the hardware does not seem to secure the handle to the oven door. There are no problems with the lower oven door.

I have had this range (Maytag MER8775AS electric range) for 36 days. The "hot surface" indicator light doesn't come on (bulb is fine) and the heat elements turn on and off on their own when I am cooking. 36 days! This thing is junk! I am going to see if I can return it, even though it is outside the 30-day window.

I purchased a Maytag gas range after remodeling my kitchen. I thought I was getting a good product, boy was I wrong. The ceramic gas grates are so slippery that pots tend to slide off but the real problem is that the racks inside the oven fall when you place pots on them. I tried cooking a Thanksgiving turkey in it and the racks fell to the bottom of the oven. It appears that the top rack and the bottom rack are the only two that stay in place. And it also appears that when the oven is on, the sides of the oven expand so that the racks fall. I have tried to contact Sears as that's where it was purchased to no avail. I will now attempt to contact Maytag directly but it appears that I will also not get anywhere there. I have read at least one other complaint of this exact same type happening to someone else. This is very dangerous. Do they really want a lawsuit?

I purchased a Maytag self-cleaning stove in early 2009. Right away, the oven floor finish started to bubble up. I called Maytag service and was told the part wasn't covered. I let it go since it wasn't interfering with the function of the oven. However, in Feb 2012, the oven started turning off in temps above 350. I called Maytag service again and was told that since I didn't purchase an extended warranty, I would have to pay for the service call, parts and labor. I complained that I never expected their product to break down in less than three years.

The oven range (model number mgr8772wb) will not heat to proper temperature. It runs 35 degrees cold even after the built-in adjustment of 30 degrees. the repairman said it was just a cold-natured oven and we had to get used to it. So if a recipe calls for 400 degrees, you must preheat to 430 degrees. As much as this thing cost, it should cook properly. I must rethink Maytag's reputation. I thought they were the best. Wrong.

We purchased all new Maytag appliances when we built our house. So far, the stove/oven has quit working and been repaired 3 times; it's always the ignitor. The dishwasher has been fixed twice. The washer no longer spins out as it should. The refrigerator and dryer so far have run okay. I am definitely going to change brands with my new appliances. I will not purchase Maytag again. It's not what it used to be. I will do without oven this time, until I can buy a new one. Also, the dishwasher door has had problems from day 1, and now, it will not close at all. It seems like it's off the hinge. Definitely, it's not the Maytag of years ago.

I bought a new Maytag stove and it is less than two years old and the oven has already quit working. It only has a one year warranty and will cost about $200 to fix. I am very dissatisfied with what I thought was a good product.

The control panel broke within the first few months. After that, the burners got rotten over a time period of 2-3 years.

We had remodeled our kitchen in 2009. Bought new fridge and stove (Maytag). The oven door came off and can't get it back on. No matter how many times we tried, no way can we get it back on. I had to have my son to come and help us. No sooner did we use the handle to open the door off again. This has been going on for 3 years. **, well fed up. I called Maytag about this issue and they told me they would get a repair at my cost. The fridge freezes all the produce, can't regulate the temperature. Never ever will we buy any Maytag product again. Who knows what’s going to happen next? Oh, and the paint is chipping off of the grates of the gas stove.

The Maytag MGR5875QDW oven does not come up to temperature. It might start, but then it will give 2 dings and show a failure. I have called the 800 number in the manual. There’s no good help. I turned the power off and then on. It’s no help. This a pain in the rear end. That is a kind way of saying it. Home phone is **; cell phone number is **. Call me any time. Thank you. You do not want my wife to go on the internet!

We purchased a Maytag Gemini gas range last year in April and the extended warranty. The ovens have not worked correctly since we bought it. I never do this type of thing, however, I am just disgusted! I am going to exercise my right as a consumer to express my customer dissatisfaction and share using the social network. I dislike Maytag and even dislike A&E factory service more! I have never experienced such bad service on a new appliance. What is even more concerning and the reason I am posting this warning is there appears to be no recourse! I googled search both companies and the first things that came up were complaint pages. How sad! Buyer beware! If you buy a new appliance, research the warranty provider. It appears that Maytag has laid off the Maytag repairman and went to a lost cost unskilled service provider!

I purchased range in January of 2011. I have had the top replaced and still it looks bad. Every time I use a burner, even if boiling water, I need to use the razor scraper to clean the burner. I’m very dissatisfied. We used to say we would buy nothing but Maytag but not anymore. Tell anyone who will listen how much I hate this stove. Oven does not cook properly, burns most everything I bake no matter if I lower the temp and time!

Three years ago, we purchased a gas Maytag double oven, it worked fine for three years, then it blew the breaker. When we turned the power back on, we could not turn the oven off. The control panel had to be replaced, dinner too. We had bought the extended warranty, so that was covered. Last week, after four months, it happened again. We placed an oven thermometer inside the oven and it is was higher than the maximum temperature of 600 which the thermometer could measure. We are currently awaiting a new control panel. Maytag used to be a good name, but recommend you to buy something else.

We purchased a Maytag Gemini with serial number D40941338 and model number MGR6875AD826. It has been a complete disaster. The control panel keeps breaking down, and it's now going to be replaced for the 6th time. I have asked for a new stove when I called the Maytag Extended Warranty Department, and they will not replace this defective product. Please help me.

Paint bubbling & peeling off appliance: I purchased new double convection oven from Lows (Maytag). One month after delivery, paint began to bubble and peel off. Maytag takes the position that as long as the oven functions properly, the paint is simply cosmetic and the warranty does not cover cosmetic problems. Maytag's position is that even if all the paint peels off but the appliance still functions properly, too bad for you!

On 9/8/09, I purchased a Maytag ceramic glass top range, model MER7662WBO. The right front dual burner has what look like worms in the burner. The other burners are clear. Maytag has replaced the top three times and the burner once. The top has gone bad again and they are calling this a cosmetic now and will not replace the top. I think there is a problem with the tops. I have purchased my last Maytag product. I buy for looks also.

I bought Tapan gas stove last year, but all your ranges have a problem. Whenever we clean the range, it never goes straight stay up ,even when I bought from Lowe's Store and I told them they said that defect from manufacturer. You have to correct your manufacturer's defect, I want an answer as soon as possible. Thank you.

I bought a Maytag Gas Range in January 2010. In January 2012, the wiring caught fire, and now, the oven is unusable. Maytag was not very helpful in our loss of money and product.

We bought a new Maytag electric range from a local dealer three years ago. The oven element quit working, which shorted out the motherboard that controls the entire range. The cost of repair was $500 for the element, motherboard and installation. We have owned other brands that lasted 20 years and worked fine with no repairs. My folks have used Maytag for over 50 years with no problems. Who and where is this junk manufactured now? China? I will never buy another Maytag product!

Our Maytag oven (not sure model) in the first year started doing crazy things with the oven computer. The oven would shut off and come back on and the display would be garbled. Also when my girlfriend tried to pull the turkey out, the rack fell off the left side and dumped all the juices into the oven. She almost got burned and there was a lot of smoke. The freakin' rack should never fall off! Also our dishwasher is on its second control board.

Fire Danger. We had a power outage and my Maytag gas range/double oven (Model: MGR6875ADS) was dead after the power came back on. We figured it was the control board and braced for the expense to replace it. A few days later, I plugged the oven back in just to see if it would work and it did! The control panel came back on and we were up and running. The good news end there. On Christmas Eve, we came home to a house full of smoke with fire alarms buzzing. A butcher block style cutting board that was on top of the range with Santa's cookies on it was on fire. Twenty more minutes and the house would have been gone.

Wow! I wished I had reviewed this page before purchasing a Maytag. We bought a new Maytag Range (#MGR5751BDD) from Menard's in March 2008. Within a couple of months, we were out of a stove. I was lighting the burner to make dinner for my family (it is a gas range) and all the burners started making a clicking noise and they caught on fire. Luckily, my husband was nearby and took the fire extinguisher to it.

I am very frustrated and disappointed with all of the appliances I purchased from Maytag, 3 1/2 years ago. The stove has never cooked evenly, and they replaced both heating elements, and it still does not bake properly. I just called customer service, because my pies for the holidays burned once again. They told me there was nothing they could do. I cannot believe a customer that spent this much money with Maytag (purchased a washer, dryer, microwave and oven), gets no help from the company.

I purchased a Maytag range (YMER8875WS) on June 20, 2011. When I put my Christmas turkey in the oven, the rack fell! It seems the oven wall has gotten wider in the middle, so the rack doesn't stay in place. I have read several comments online about this, particularly relating to Kenmore ranges. This is a very common problem apparently caused by the oven liner bowing outwards.

My Maytag (MER7662XQ) oven has stopped working after barely 6 months of use. I filed a warranty-repair complaint and reported the error codes shown: "F1" (faulty touchpad) and "F3" (faulty temp sensor). Although Maytag promptly sent a repairman, he arrived without parts and left within 5 minutes without fixing anything. He said he would order parts. Whenever they were delivered to us, by mail, we should call again to schedule another repair. But he warned he was prohibited from coming out for another 7 days.

My built in electric double wall oven, Model MEW6630DDB, convection on the top, has been the most frustrating appliance I have ever owned. It has never kept an even temperature. It has been repaired several times and still does not keep an even temperature. It takes 14 hours to cook a 20 lb. turkey and baking cookies are not even an option. I have complained to Maytag and have paid for repair services. Their solution buy an extended warranty which is absolutely insane because they haven't been able to repair it since it was new over four years ago.

I bought a Maytag MGR5605WW range on July 3, 2011 and it took till mid August before I received it. Right away I noticed when I put a pan on the grates, I had to be careful so they did not slip off. Dangerous! Then I made a pizza, and when I pulled the rack out of the oven, the rack tipped down and the pizza slid down on the oven. Danger again! I went over to Menards and they gave me the number of A&E (1-800-771-3029). I called them when I got home and an A&E person said they would call me back.

I was in my bed and lights and TV flickered. Then, I heard a small explosion and my dogs went crazy. I went into the kitchen and my Maytag Gemini stove was smoking and smells really bad. I unplugged it. The sockets and the one close to it no longer work. My house stinks now. What happened? I have had this stove for a few years but it is not used often except during the holidays.

I purchased Maytag gas range in March 2011 at Home Depot, Model No. MGR5605WWO. I received the product in May 2011. The porcelain on the grates chips away leaving large grooves in grate, which affects cooking efficiency, (the fire burns erratically). First, I called 1-800-688-9900. The grates were replaced. And then same problem, it was replaced again, and again the same problem. The warranty to cover stove was extended by 6 months. The enamel on the round magnetic cover for the burner is also chipping away. I was told that this chipping of the enamel is a cosmetic problem and does not affect the functionality of the stove problem.

I bought all new Maytag appliances for a new house built 2 years ago. The oven fan, while in warranty, began coming on in the middle of the night. It would turn on, cancel, began not working, and then the ticking noise began. Maytag sent 5 different service people out, sometimes without the part. We are afraid to use it now and have turned off the breaker for it. Now, it is turning itself back on again. Maytag says we must now pay for any repairs/service calls as it is out of warranty. It was not out of warranty when all these troubles began.

I purchased a Maytag gas range about five years ago. After about two months, I noticed that the paint on the burner grates was flaking off. I called the company and they told me it was cosmetic. I have since bought two sets of replacement grates. I call the newest ones my "dress grates", which I put on the stove when I am having company. I use the damaged ones for everyday cooking. Last year, the panel flashed. It "locks" constantly. And often, the door would not open, unless we pulled the stove away from the wall, unplugged it, and that cleared the computer.

The middle piece of glass on my four-year-old gas oven shattered. It was not being used, but when I called Maytag, they told me that that was not covered because I did not have an extended warranty, and that I can purchase a new oven door and would have to pay the service person. I hope they go out of business. Maytag stinks, and everyone should know this.

We purchased a Maytag double oven in November 18, 2008. I was baking and the top oven wasn't working. We called Maytag service number on the book we received when we purchased the oven. It took 25 minutes for someone to answer our call. The person did not know what our problem was. We thought it could be the ignitor. He transferred us to a parts person. That person didn't know the answer and hung up on my husband. How rude of him. We will never purchase another Maytag product. We will let our family and friends also know. You need to inform your personnel to know their products.

I purchased a Maytag Gemini gas range in July 2006. Rust has appeared on the bottom of both oven doors. I called Maytag customer service, realizing that my range was no longer covered by warranty. However, I feel the paint on a range, costing over $1,000, should last longer than 5 years. Customer service told me to call a repair technician. When I asked who would pay for this service call, they didn't even bother to respond to me. As I have read other reviews of dissatisfied Maytag Range owners, I'm glad I didn't waste money calling a repair tech who would do nothing to help, but charge a $100 plus fee. The paint on a car, which is subjected to all kinds of weather, lasts much longer than 5 years. You would think the paint on an appliance inside a home should last much longer. This rust is becoming very unsightly. I will certainly not purchase a Maytag product again, as the company has proved they do not stand behind their product line.

The bottom oven of my Maytag double oven range (serial #MER6765BAS18) caught fire while I was baking there. The coil burnt out and separated. This did not occur due to food spill or other means. The coil was charred. The stove top does not perform adequately and the coils do not heat uniformly.

I purchased a Maytag Electric Range (Model: MER7662WS1) at Lowe's in February 2011. After few months, we found many rusty areas on the stainless oven door and on the stainless drawer.

we have trouble with maytag doublre oven. the oven is over 100 degree off set temp and is not consitant. some times high some times low. we have had ae repair out they relaced control board and circuit board same problem still exists. we had turner repair out they took a reading when it hit desires temp but did not stay to see temp rise above or below set temp. turner repair another tech order a temp probe the turner tech put in probe and jst left didnot even check oven. he was pissed off I quess. same problem still exisits.

In April 2010, I purchased a Maytag Gemini gas range (~$2000). Today, I noticed that one of the tips on the burner grate that covers the "power boost" burner is chipped. I called the customer service about this and I was told that it is cosmetic and not a defect. I asked to have the call escalated and I was told by a supervisor named Dana, that right from the beginning she is the "final person" who I will deal with. Really?!

We bought a gas range "The Big Oven" five years ago. Into the second year, the broiler quit, can't even light it with a match! It only bakes. The door of the oven doesn't close tight anymore. Because of that, the burner knob turned brown because of the heat, and it really got HOT. We used a stick to prop the door closed as much as we can.

Second Maytag wall oven (MEW5527DDB) repeatedly needs new control panel. No warranty. Bad boards, default. This is the second oven. I had to throw the first one away, because after seven years they didn't make the part.

I am on my second Maytag oven that I was forced to purchase directly through Maytag as my last replacement broke 3 times (just out of warranty). There is a major flaw on the design as the control panel burns itself out. Here I go again with a 6-month old oven MEW6527DDS and broken again. It takes multiple calls for service and two work days being held hostage by repair folks and Maytag does not start the warranty over again after the fix which they darn well should. There is clearly something wrong with this model now that I am on number 2 and it’s broken again. Like 4 times in 2 years? Help!

We have a short in the electrical control panel that turned our oven on automatically overnight and could have burnt our house down if we did not wake up as there was a pan of oil cooling in the oven. Because of it's electrical short, it turned the oven on and baked the grease pan. Had we have not awakened or not been at home, this would have started a fire. I called Maytag at the their listed number and they do not have a recall or even an apology for the malfunction. This is a major design flaw that could be a life threatening situation.

My stove almost burned my house down by turning itself on and burning some Tupperware my girlfriend had stored in the oven. We never thought that the oven would turn on by itself but it did. My sister law had to run out the house with my son and nephew because the fire alarms in my apartment were going off. When she was coming back with my father, they can see the smoke coming out the kitchen window she thought the worse, that the house was on fire. My father, not thinking, opened the apartment front door and saw plenty of smoke but most of the smoke was going out the kitchen window.

My family owns a double wall oven, model number MEW6630CAS. It was an expensive oven in 2001 and we hoped we were acquiring a sturdy and reliable tool for our family kitchen. Unfortunately, we have had to fix the digital display twice since we got this oven, at over $400 for each fix. The first fix was in 2005 and the last fix was last month, in 2010. In addition to the initial cost of the oven, we have spent over $800 just to be able to read the basic information of time, temperature, etc. of the oven. Obviously, when we acquired the oven, we never suspected we would need to spend over $800 just to be able to read the displays. This is a huge hidden cost and, we think, points to a serious problem with the design and the parts used to repair this product.

Basically, I am so unhappy with a stove purchase I made in 2005 that has had the electronic display, and the two oven elements replaced within that time to the present. I feel a stove, which the company charges a pretty penny for, should stand behind their product. Torry from Whirlpool was very nice and sent me the user guide and warranty info, but a man I spoke with at Whirlpool was less than easy to deal with. And the certified dealer charged me for the same part (one of which I replaced this time) in 2008.

On October 2, 2008, we purchased a Maytag Electric Cooktop (5 burner). In the past 2 weeks ,we have attempted to replace the five "closed drip bowls" that came with the original cooktop. We have been informed that the "closed drip bowls" are no longer made and that we, instead, should use the "open drip bowls. " Page 4 of the "Use and Care Guide for the Electric Cooktop" states, "The drip bowls under each surface element catch boil overs and must always be used. Absence of drip bowls during cooking may damage wiring." If the "open drip bowls" are substituted for the "closed drip bowls" then there is nothing to catch boil overs and the wiring below the burners is exposed and risks being damaged. In addition, thorough cleaning under the burners is to say the least, awkward if not impossible.

I will no longer purchase any Maytag appliances. We have had nothing but problems. Our cook top stove has a second repair called on it. Our refrigerator has had several calls for repairs. We had purchased a washer & dryer and they both died 3 years and 8 months later and when I contacted Maytag, they said they couldn't do anything about it.

I bought a double gas range and when using the oven racks on the lowest setting in both ovens, it scratches the oven door when being pulled out. This needs to be addressed with the company. I did contact the company and they said this is the design of the oven. Bad design. Why have a lowest setting if you cannot use it?

I sent Maytag an e-mail to let them know every Maytag appliance I own I have had to have repaired. My glass top stove has burn marks, dishwasher had standing water in the bottom of it, dryer almost caught on fire and my over the range microwave went out. All of this has cost money to get repaired. The people from Maytag told me they give more than other companies as far as a years warranty. and it's my responsibility to get it repaired at my cost and that I should keep it clean. Well, I can tell you I do keep up with the care of everything I own. I don't have money to be spent on things needlessly. As far as iIm concerned, Maytag is selling junk and they need to be investigated. Thank you

I believed I was buying a quality unit since it was a Maytag. Guess I bought the commercial that showed the Maytag repair man bored because he had no repairs to keep him busy. Well, I had at least 4 visits from the repairman within 1 year. This double oven has a stove top that does not clean and scratches very easily.

We purchase a Maytag 30" Gemini range MGR6875ADW on 1/2/2006. In May 2006, the unit ejected a flame at the burner knob closest to the control panel. It was fixed by installing plastic discs and rubber inserts to prevent water from entering this area (where the gas ignitor control was located).

We have to spend out time, energy and money with service calls, and the fact is our kitchen is unsightly 24/7 due to ongoing unsightly, un-cleanable ranges due to these un-cleanable black porcelain cartridges. Other than lifetime of replacing cartridges, having a smooth top might solve the daily unsightly issue. It might help solve this problem. Otherwise, we will press on to the new Consumer Protection Bureau, Elizabeth **** and ask her to do what was done to Toyota and stop corporations from robbing people of funds to save and pay bills then prepare for retirement, by making quality products. Lifetime guarantee on Cartridges and all parts that affect the ability to cook with this range is the only answer. Consumers might be willing to compromise and handle things of more cosmetic natures at 1/2 price, like the knobs.

I purchased a Maytag Nepture in 2005 not knowing of the lawsuit or participating in it. We have since spent over $700 in repairs. 4 times it has failed. I’m now replacing Mother Computer Board for the second time and no help from Maytag. The repair man feels terrible for us. This time the part is on back order who knows how long it will take to even get. We even called Maytag asking to get the part paid for or discounted and they would not do that.

I purchased a Jenn-Air with Maytag. The oven and warming drawer never worked correctly from the beginning. I had service on it shortly after I purchased it. And now, I am having the same issues. I am not happy with this unit. I did not realize all the problems that came with this unit that I would be responsible for, such as moisture getting between the glass front of the range and staining the glass, which looks terrible like I haven't cleaned it.

We remodeled our kitchen in 2007 and replaced all the appliances with Maytag appliances, range, dishwasher, refrigerator and microwave. Since that time, we have had to replace the microwave, it just quit working. The front large eye on the range hasn't worked in over a year. The refrigerator has to be defrosted about every 2 months, it freezes up between the freezer and the refrigerator compartment. The dishwasher is making a terrible noise and does not clean the dishes. We got a recall notice on the dishwasher and someone is supposed to come out and replace that part. I don't think that is going to help, it doesn't clean anyway. We paid a lot of money for these appliances and assumed that Maytag was a good, reliable company. Wrong. I'll never have another thing in my home made by Maytag.

Was cooking a pizza last night. Set oven to 400F and allowed oven to preheat. After oven reach proper temp, placed pizza in oven for approx 24min cooking time. After 10mins, heard a strange noise and went out to kitchen and found inner glass of oven door completely shattered. As above, the entire inner glass on the oven door shattered. Obviously, we are not going to use the oven until we get it repaired. I have tried to find other complaints but have been able to find the self cleaning models having this problem only when self cleaning was activated. This model is not self cleaning but I would find it strange if Maytag used different doors. I have yet to ascertain a price but I am sure the warranty is expired (of course!).

Maytag Self-cleaning wall oven (Model CWE4800ACE27) was purchased this year. I am not happy as this machine. It throws out a lot of hot air through its vent and fights my air conditioning. You cannot tell if my air is on after a couple hours of that oven being on. Also, you hear the cooling fan the whole time. As far as the manufacturer is concerned, it performs perfectly fine as it is supposed to do. Yes, it will cook fine but it heats up my house and is noisy. My neighbor just bought a Frigidaire after I bought this Maytag. I went to her house and there was no hot air coming out or a noise from the fan. I am unhappy. Neither Home Depot nor Whirlpool (Maytag) will do anything about this.

After the debacle with the Neptune washer by Maytag, we still re-purchased a Maytag washer based on the reviews. This time it was the Bravos, touted to be the solution to the Neptune's problems. It worked well for about a year and a half, then the F-1 warning light went on, and the washer stopped.

On December 1, 2002, I purchased a Maytag Gas slide-in range #MGS5770ADB and a Maytag dishwasher MDB56000AWB at a cost of $1536.99. On December 28, 2006, about 4 years, I had to replace the electric control board for the dishwasher and now, the electric igniter on the gas range went out. I live alone and do not use these appliances on a daily basis. I think they should last longer than 8 years. I had Kenmore appliances for over 20 years and I should have not downgraded to Maytag! I will never buy Maytag appliances again!

I don't know if this is the right place for my complaint, but here's my complaint. I bought all new appliances for my kitchen 6 years ago, Maytag. The oven door on my double pane door is collecting dirt from underneath, to the point that it is so embarrassing. I contacted repair service to come out and look to see if the seal or something was broken. He said it's normal because the oven sits on a hardwood floor! Good answer, huh? Anyway, he told me to put a rug in front of it to help with the dust flying up into it. He also said he could take it apart and clean it, but it will only keep happening.

We purchased a Maytag Performance Range model #MGR4451BDW in 2008 and when we have the oven on the stove, top knobs will freeze up. In other words they do not want to turn in any direction, either off or on. We had Maytag repairmen out more than once and they were unable to resolve the problem.

The exterior front glass panel on the oven door exploded, during the night time, while we were sleeping. This was Sunday night (5-2-10 ) into Monday morning (5-3-10). When we entered the kitchen, we were shocked to see glass all over the floor. It took over one hour to clean up the mess. The loss of one glass panel for oven door. model MERH865RA.

The oven on our old range stopped working. With it being more than 10 years old, we opted for a new one and chose a Maytag, with which I thought that be a good replacement. That is until the oven was turned on—it emitted a very bad smell that might not have been so bad, except that my husband has C.O.P.D. and I have emphysema.

The bottom rack is charred. It looks like its been burnt. I'm afraid it will start a fire.

Maytag Range($1,400.00) front burner went out. Under extended warranty. Repair man (Twin City Appliance Shreveport,La. ) took 1 month and 2 weeks during Christmas, New Holidays to arrive. Fixed the problem but made two "nicks" in porcelain top and cracked the ceramic. Maytag says, it is my responsibility even thought they sent the repair man. Also, I had renewed extended warranty plan and now they want to penalize $25.00 out of refund because the last one expired 2 days before reported. It was reported on 12-5-09 and repair man arrived on 1-23-10. Damaged the top of Range. It took many phone calls, hours of waiting, writing a three page letter and registering ret receipt requested and they never answered and also the Twin City Appliance place never returned 4 phone calls I made.

My husband and I built a new house 3 years ago, so naturally we decided to get all new appliances. I researched products and we decided to go with Maytag. Why not? Big company and well known, plus they had the double range that I wanted. We bought everything--range, fridge, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. I bought top of the line.

I have a Maytag electric range MER 5770AAW. I have run the self-clean oven two times. The first time it was under warranty and I had to call to get the door unlocked. On December 10, 2009, I called Maytag as I had misplaced the single sheet of paper with instructions how to run the self-clean feature. The woman told me to punch the self-clean button and the lock button at the same time. I did so. The self-clean cycle started. In less than an hour, the timer button started screaming. Thinking the cycle was completed, I punched cancel. About 5 hours later, the oven had plenty of time to cool and the door was locked. I called them back and was told it is out of warranty and I pleaded just tell me how to cancel the lock so I can open the door.

I purchased a new Maytag Performa Electric Range in January of 2008. On Thanksgiving Day, 2009, the two inside windows of the appliance exploded. After calling Maytag, I was told I would have to pay for the two new windows ($102.00) plus the cost to have them replaced ($105.00). It would seem that although the appliance is out of warranty, that an issue like this should require a recall.

I purchased a Maytag oven Model # MER5755AAW Series 12. The outside glass exploded one morning. No one or thing was near the kitchen let alone the oven. Granted it is tempered glass, but had I been in there with my 20 month old which I am usually every morning. This could have been a serious problem! Maytag wants to send me the glass and I just want the whole door! Thanksgiving is coming and I need a simple solution! We have been unable to cook in our oven for 2 days now. I won't use the stove for fear there could be other problems. There are sharp objects now exposed to the door.

This is the second Maytag appliance I have owned that the control panel goes out after a few years. My repairman can't even find a working one for my Maytag Performa Range (he has put in 3 so far). Poor design, poor product, expensive part, and no warranty. I'll buy appliances with dials next time.

24'' Single Gas Wall Oven with Standard Broiler Below Oven and Two Heavy-Duty Oven Racks (Stainless Steel): The oven-tempered glass on the front of my Maytag oven exploded into millions of pieces. There was not a single reason that this should have randomly happened. But research is showing me that this is far from a random accident. Hundreds of complaints have been cited online referring to this oven glass problem, but I can't find any reference to show that Maytag is recalling or reimbursing this product. I think the company should be made accountable.

We bought from Sears in 2003 a Maytag stainless steel convection range which cost us more than one thousand dollars and since the beginning, it seemed to me that something was wrong with it. Sometimes when I ignited the burners, I would hear a small exploding sound and the flame would come out like a big flash. I got scared of being burned. Then it was the broiler, with the same sound. I turn on the broiler and I have to wait a long time for it to ignite. I do have to open the oven door several times and then that is when it ignites sending out a big blast of flame and sound, and other times I have to shut it off because it will not ignite at all and I have to run to the grill outside to broil my food. Then the coil that goes around inside the oven door became damaged from the heat. We called Sears and one of their contractors came, charged us $280 to change it. He looked at the ignition problem, didn't do anything about it and went away while I had to deal with this very scary nuisance.

We purchased a Maytag range (model #MGRH865QDW, serial #13477333NE) in approximately June of 2008. The delivery was attempted on several ranges over a seven week period. They were damaged or dented and either never made to our home for delivery (the delivery company started checking them before wasting their time delivering) or were refused when they arrived. We contacted Home Depot (where we purchased the range) to see about exchanging our purchase for something different and they said we had to deal with Maytag. Once we finally accepted delivery on a range, which does have a small dent in it in the same place as all the others, we used it for approximately six months and my husband walked by one night and a spark came from the oven and it shut off and would not turn back on.

Under the warranty period (1 year from purchase), the ignitors on my gas cooktop stopped functioning and all 4 knob broke at the hub - the plastic simply cracked and broke off during normal use. Maytag said they had no record of my registration, but I have the email reply from them.

We bought a Maytag Electric Range in November 2005, Model# MERH752BAB. Then on Saturday, August 14, 2009, my Sister and I were sitting in the kitchen at 11:00pm and all of a sudden we heard this terrible noise and when we turned around to see what happened, we realized the front glass on the range had exploded. There were little pieces of glass everywhere. My grandchildren had left about an hour before or this could have been a disaster as they are usually in the Kitchen. It took us both about an hour to clean the mess up, of course we were really shaking.

I had a big remodel in my kitchen and I decided to purchase the best appliances I could. The name Maytag was, in my mind, one of the most reliable brands. It turned out I was very wrong. None of the appliances are working fully right now. The stand-alone range does not have a working broiler. After calling a repairman, he diagnosed the problem as a computer problem that costs over $554 to repair. So, I will be without a broiler until something else fails in the stove that forces me to purchase a new one.

I purchased all new high end appliances in 2003 from Maytag. We choose to buy Maytag/JennAir as a result of what we thought was a good reputation. In 2006, our stove ceased working. Under warranty, we replaced the electrical panel on the stove. In 2007, this part broke again. We waited almost a year without an oven in an attempt to negotiate it being covered under warranty. It was eventually replaced under warranty. Aside from this, I must mention that each time we still had to pay for service calls.

This complaint is about the poor design of the Maytag Gemini gas range (Serial Number: 12863844GN / Model Number: MGR6875ADQ). The electronic control panel malfunctions due to to the heat generated when using the stove top burners. This is the second time this has happened. When I contacted the Maytag consumer unit, I advised them of these problems and told them that it is obviously the result of poor design. Their response was they have had no other complaints of this nature involving the Gemini model. I had to pay for the first repair which was made just about one year ago.

I purchased several Maytag appliances in March 2002. Double oven wiring had to be replaced then the first time I tried to use the self cleaning feature, it didn't work. This was replaced under warranty. The worst is my Maytag Z side by side. About 3-4 years ago, I noticed rusting in the door around the water and ice in the door feature. I complained at the time and got no response from Maytag but I did order replacement parts for this area which never came and received no communication. Also, I could not find a way to follow up. I really need a new freezer door for my refrigerator. I have heard some other people have had similar problems. The door continues to rust more over time. Maytag needs to address this problem. It is a design flaw.

Our Maytag range has an upper and lower oven, it is stainless steel. Shortly after turning on the upper oven self clean feature, a fire started. An attempt to cancel the self-clean failed, it would not cancel. Because the oven door locks during a self-clean, we were unable to open the door to put out the fire. Another attempt to cancel the self-clean using the touch control panel failed. The door was then forcibly removed and the fire was put out with flour. Our kitchen still smells like smoke, the upper oven in ruin. Our house was filled with smoke; our carpet and furniture upholstery, all had to be cleaned. We no longer trust this unit.

My Maytag/Magic Chef stove, model #CGR3765BDC and serial #10666498YD, turned itself on while my husband and I were out. We were gone for about 6-7 hours and returned home to a very hot house that had a bleach smell. We could not turn the oven off. The panel displayed the numbers 6666. I burnt the tips of my fingers trying to touch the control panel. The oven was that hot! We didn't know whether to call the fire department or the gas company. We called an emergency into the gas company, standing by, in case we needed to call the fire department. The gas man shut the gas and electric off to the oven. Now we don't have a stove or oven and I'm scared it will do this again, even if repaired.

We bought a Maytag Electric glass top stove/oven about 3 years ago. We were having problems while on warranty and had it fixed at no charge. Once off warranty, the oven door would not close properly. It was partially open so it could not heat properly. We had the serviceman in to repair. He ordered a new part and came back, $200. The door fell off within 6 months. Another call and it was $120. Since then, the door has fallen off most times when used. Now we cook in it only on special occasions and we have to be careful to hold the door so it won't fall off. Once we are done using it, we take the door off until we need to use it again. Thankfully it is just my husband and I, so we are able to use a toaster oven to bake for ourselves. We have spent more money for service and parts than it is worth. After reading the stories, we will not repair it again. It will go to the dump.

I cleaned the ovens and they never unlock. Whatever happened burnt out the top front burner and now the temperature of both ovens just keeps going up. So there is an oven in our kitchen that we are unable to use. I am very unhappy that they cannot find anyone that knows anything about Maytag which I might add is the worst experience I have ever had in my life.

Plastic knobs on top of flat glass cooktop melt and crack. I have replaced it sixteen times. Obvious design flaw. Maytag blames us, saying we are using pans that are too big for the burners. Not so! They offered us 15% rebate on purchase of a new Maytag, Whirlpool, KitchenAid or Jenn-Air. The appliance is 3 years old and should have lasted 10-15 years at minimum. I paid $650. New top is $800. 15% is $120. I'm out $530.

I bought a Maytag range and a Maytag combo washer/dryer unit. Both are approximately 2 years old and both are not working. Maytag has a 1-year warranty. When you call, they say they made the warranty 1 year so they could lower their prices. They didn't lower their prices. Their products don't hold up. Don't buy them. Now I have to repair these darn pieces of trash at my own expense. Don't buy them!

I purchased a Maytag Gas Range Model # MGR5755QDW in Jan. of 06. I have used the oven but in the last year, it has not been working properly. Finally, I had the repairman out and he said it would take about $400 to fix. After reading all the comments on this website, I'm not sure I want to fix it. I contacted Maytag but there is no answer as yet. I will update if I hear anything.

My husband and I purchased a brand new home with brand new appliances that were provided by the builder. We have been in the home for about a year and a half. Of course, the appliances are made by Maytag. About 6 months ago, we noticed that our oven started locking up, shutting off on its own and cutting on by itself. My husband checked the breaker and it had not flipped. So he cut the breaker to turn it off and then flipped it back to on. Since the first incident, it happened a handful of times.

My Maytag oven model mer5775qab was not heating properly. Not only did the oven take a long time to heat, but the oven didn't even heat up evenly. I contacted Sears and the manufacturer and they did nothing but give me a headache.

The Maytag person went out of business.

Maytag oven (MODEL #MER5755QAW) made a loud pop noise then sizzled. The only thing that works now are the top burners. We replaced the heating unit on the inside, but it still does not work. $250.00 replacement part and it still doesn't work! Have to buy a new stove.

In January 2002, I purchase a Maytag washer and dryer. Being from the old school, they were the best, and now it was my turn to have them. Most of my appliances have lasted a minimum of 10 years, and some as much as 15 years. However, my wonderful Maytag washer is for the birds, unfortunately. I now have found out that the pride (?) of Maytag has slipped and the plastic parts wear-out much faster than they should. For the past year or more, my washer sounds like a locomotive going through the house, and I can't even put in a full load because of the slippage in the spin. I guess I'm writing to say goodbye to Maytag as we are now going to purchase a new washer, most likely Whirlpool from what the repairman says. Also, I guess Jennair, according to consumer reports, isn't doing much better than Maytag. Why are you letting this happen? No longer will I recommend this brand for anything. So I guess I'm just writing to say goodbye, and I hope you will do better in the future and make a change to your current standards.

I am looking for any information on the fire hazard of proper use of the self cleaning feature of the Maytag Range Model MERL752BAW. I have used the feature twice - first resulting in a burned out element, and the second time resulting in failure of the unit just before a fire began. The oven tripped the breaker, broke both elements, resulting in the melting of the wire that leads to one element, scorching the electronics and insulation. Thank heaven we were home and closely watching the unit, which resulted in our being able to avoid a kitchen fire. Certainly, we are not the only ones to experience this poor performance, resulting in a very dangerous situation. Yet, I don't see a reference to this product in Maytag's your Recall Information link.

I bought Maytag Gemini double oven stove and have not liked it since day one. Stove control was partially covered by the top cover being the wrong size. They did come out and replace it immediately. However, the stove is junky, just plain junky. It is hard to clean outside and inside, lots of crevices to hide dirt and grease. The grates are cheap and the paint is cracking off. The burners heat unevenly. The burner knobs do not adjust the flames. The oven heat unevenly too, except the convection functions, which do cook as they are supposed to. I have not used the clean function and am now afraid to after all the fire reports. I bought this stove for the convection oven and the small oven and am VERY DISAPPOINTED in MAYTAG. OUTSOURCING and LACK OF QUALITY CONTROL strike again. The customer service number for US Appliances, which now own Maytag, is 866-259-3603. If they are flooded with calls and squealed on, they will change.

I have complained about the Maytag stove twice about it going on by itself and twice they have come out to fix it! Well, let me tell you it's happening again and I would like for the item to be recalled and sent a new one! No more repairs for me. This happened at 9:50 pm. I hear a beeping sound and stove went off on high. I went into the kitchen and shut it down! I'm scared to use the stove now! Please help me!

We built a house in 2000 and bought all new Maytag appliances: dishwasher, refrigerator and stove. Last summer, the Maytag dishwasher had a recall due to an electrical problem and Maytag paid for the parts and service to fix the appliance. This weekend, my Maytag gas stove exploded after the feed values leading into the burners broke. Fortunately, no one in my family was injured and my house is still standing. After turning off the gas to the stove, we looked underneath the burners and the insulation that separates the stovetop from the oven is clearly charred and both front values to both front burners are defective.

I purchased Maytag Gas Oven, with Model #MGR5751BDS, in July of 2008. It failed directly out of the box. First, the oven clock quit, then the burners wouldn't light, and then the oven would cook at random temperatures. I called customer service (what a nightmare). After an hour, I finally got a service appointment scheduled. Seven months have gone by, and the oven has been serviced multiple times. Each repair requiring two visits (one for the diagnostic, one for after the new parts arrived) with each repair set for between 8 am and 5 pm. By Thanksgiving, the oven could not be trusted to operate at the correct temperature at all, and by Christmas it simply quit working.

The ceramic cooktop is useless. Even on Day One, when I boiled water in a brand new pot which I had duly washed before using, rinsed carefully, etc., etc., with the repairman standing beside me witnessing the entire episode, the cooktop developed a hard-to-clean stain. The pricey stuff they sell for clean-ups is a joke; Softscrub works at least as well for a 10th of the price. In the end, the kind local appliance dealers gave me a spare cooktop to put on the thing when I sell my house someday.

I bought the washer on 4/13/04. I had service calls on 3/17/05, 7/5/05, 6/29/05, 12/8/05, 5/15/06 and 7/12/06. All the service calls where because the machine was continuously getting noisier. They would replace the electrical motor, the water pump, the milk stool, and the spin belt. I was told by one service man that he never bought a new Maytag and that his washer was noisier than mine. I finally gave up, lived with the noise, and quit purchasing the extended warranty. The noise stayed pretty much the same until December 2008 when it sounded like a jet engine. I replaced the spin belt and idler pulley, but this did not help. I noticed the noise was extremely bad during the spin cycle and could be heard very clearly when the door was opened up during the spin cycle.

In 07/07 I purchased a Maytag Range MER5875RCS for $1500.00. The oven temperature would vary by 100 degrees. Three service calls later, they replaced the computer and the temperature probe. Temperatures still vary by 30 to 40 degrees. At 10 months, the 110 volt receptacle on the face of the stove required replacement. At 13 months, the burner on the cooker top quit working. The only thing worse than this range is MAYTAG'S (WHIRLPOOL) service department. I have called the service department three times now. The company has done nothing to address the issues with my range. The company where I purchased the range has offered to buy it back for $500.00. A far cry from the $1500.00 I paid just a little over a year ago. The Maytag of today is not the same company it once was. I recommend that you do some research. Whirlpool owns Maytag, Amana, JennAir, KitchenAid and others. I will never spend another red cent on a Maytag appliance or any of the affiliated brands for that matter.

Our '93 Maytag wall oven's keypad had to be replaced after 9 yrs of service. It had to be replaced again after 5 yrs. Now, about 9 months later, the part has failed again. Maytag claims the unit has met its life expectancy of 15 yrs. I don't agree and believe the reliability of the replacement part is the problem. Replacing the wall oven's keypad is a $300 expense. I am reluctant to replace this part a third time when its reliability is certainly in question.

My oven went out the las week of July and I call in for repair service . I had to wait a week before they could send any one out to service it I explain to them that my family was having a family reunion and that I need my oen repair. I also explain to them that my husband and I were Diebetic and that we do not eat a lot of fried food Well the repair man came a week later and put in a recondition part. He never check to see if the part work in just install and left . I tried to use my oven and it still did not work,ao I had to call for service again.

Bought a very expensive Maytag Gemini electric double oven smooth top range in September 2000 from Sears. Since they I am constantly bombarded with F9-5 and F1-6 error codes. The computer clock panel has been replaced at least 3 times. Last night it went out again. The ovens won't preheat. Ovens dead. Is it possible there is a Lemon Law to have this useless range replaced?

Maytag Neptune washer and dryer were bought approx 3-4 years ago. Have been having a oder, almost a burning oder, but could not detere the oder to be more prevelant. I have also been having a bad time with mold allergies. Today I read about Neptune washer and mold problems I am going for simple and cheap machines since workmanship and parts are poor no matter what you pay. When I have to replace I won't be so upset. And not a Maytag.

i have five kids and two of them are newborn my oldest is seven, i feel i got ripped off and maytag said if the pronlem is fixable they will fix it but if it is not fixable they will give me 15% off a new stove what is that nothing. I feel this stove is very hazoradus and it should be recalled.

We purchased this new Maytag Precision Touch Control 500 Electric Smoothtop Model# MER5755QAW at Sears four years ago. Today I was preheating the oven to 425 to bake a pie. I waited 45 minutes for the oven to preheat. It only reached a temperature of 210. I Canceled it out and tried again, no use it would not work. We shut off the breaker to the stove and retried it, nothing! The oven is not working. After coming online and doing some research, I found this site for consumers and have discovered that this has been a major problem for many of these Maytag appliances.

This element had been replaced 2 years earlier because it was burned out???

our maytag stove door auto lock cycles like crazy until finally giving an F9 code dropping out the bake and broil functions.This occurred during the night when it when into its auto cleaning mode. I am a technician by trade of such equipment, kitchen and resturant.I found a bad control board. This is a 2000 dollar range and you know what? After reading the complaints, its going to the dump. Im cutting my losses now because it sounds like maytag appliances are really worth more at the scrap yard than they are off the assembly line.

I have a Maytag range, MEM5750BAB, which was purchased June 26, 2006. In May of 2007, the Electronic Range Control burned out, and had to be replaced under warranty, parts, service call and labor included. June of 2008, the Electronic Range Control has burned out again, and the manufacturer warranty has expired. The ERC price is approximately $200.00. I have a $1000.00 deductible on my homeowner's insurance. I am a senior citizen on a fixed income and $200.00 puts a serious financial strain on our budget. Maytag needs to build appliances that last longer than just a couple of years!

We recently purchased a Maytag freestanding range, MGRH865 for our new home. As soon as we began using the oven, it would not turn off. We saw smoke come out from behind the oven and had to unplug it to turn it off. The company that Maytag contracts to service their ovens told us that a screw went into a wire during manufacturing and burnt the board.

We purchased a Maytag electric stove at Home Depot in 2/07. After 2 weeks of owning it, I called for service because the stovetop was becoming dangerously hot, even far away from the elements. Hot enough that water would sizzle and evaporate immediately. Since I have small kids this really scared me, since even the edges of stove were hot enough to burn them.
