Product review (5 stars): Easiest Repair for our Maytag Performa Washer
So grateful that replacing the drain pump fixed all of our problems because at first I was afraid it was a tub bearing and that is a very difficult repair.

We have a Maytag Performa model # PAVT244AWW that we bought in 2003 and this drain pump worked perfectly.

A couple of years ago, we had to replace the snubber ring; so compared to that this was a snap.

We watched some drain pump videos on YouTube by "appliance parts pros" and the "appliance man" which made everything pretty straightforward.

 Just make sure you clamp your drain pump hoses tight or they will slip off during use.

Our washer was making a horrible grinding noise every time the water was draining from the washer and now everything is better than ever. The washer is so quiet. I think the pump had been going for quite some time.
