Product review (1 stars): The Maytag name is not what it used to be!!!
Over the past decade, Maytag's reputation has really gone in the tank. Since Whirlpool bought them in 2008 things have looked up in the overall ratings from JD Power and Consumer Reports. I bought this unit the day after Thanksgiving and if I could go back, I would buy something else. It is quiet and I have had no problems with any of the features, except the auto water level. In half of the loads it stops filling to early and the clothes do not get cleaned properly. We have called and they have instructed us exactly how to load the machine and we read the instructions, we have two BA and a Master Degree - my wife and I know how to do laundry, and still it does not always work right. It is a real pain when after a full cycle there are towels that have dry spots on them, or jeans that do not come clean, or our kids clothes that are not getting as clean as they can. The worst part is there is no over-ride; you are stuck with this feature. So now we stand there and continually open the lid while it fills which resets the auto feature. If we do that 2-3 times it fully fills and stuff gets clean. If the machine fills, it washes really well, is quiet, and so far has been acceptable after 6 weeks. But when it does not fill correctly - WORTHLESS! And we bought the matching dryer - it is dead as we wait for the repairman who is coming in 8 days! Go elsewhere!
