Product review (1 stars): you'll need a warranty!
We're a family of seven so we do laundry daily. We've had this washer for two years and as of today we are having it repaired for the 5th time. The seal broke 3 times leaving water everywhere each time. Once it wouldn't drain water. And yesterday the plastic piece inside that moves the clothes during washing broke completely off and shredded all the clothes inside. We don't dare let the extended warranty run out. We are going to get it fixed and sell it in our yard sale with the year warranty that we purchased last month. I can't wait to get rid of this monster. The Maytag man is definitely NOT sitting around waiting to repair. He's so busy I have to wait a week and a half before he can get to me to fix my washer. I feel wrong giving this one star since it doesn't even deserve that much credit.
