Product review (5 stars): So far we have been delighted
We were replacing our 14 year old Maytag Neptune washer which finally died.  After talking with a few appliance repair men, they all said to stick with Whirlpool or Maytag and avoid LG, Samsung, and Kenmore (made by LG.)  Maytag is owned by whirlpool and the comparable models between the brands are basically identical except for small subtle feature differences, otherwise there is basically no difference as far as parts, engineering, and manufacturing.
Comparing this Maytag model to the whirlpool WFW95HEXW (same washer) we chose the Maytag for purely preferential reasons.

First impressions were:
1) 4.3 cu. ft. capacity is wonderful.  We're used to a much older front load washer which had maybe 1/2-2/3 this capacity.  It holds a lot and when we put in what used to be stuffed full load, this machine isn't full at all.
2) The Allergen cycle got out pet odors on "dog blankets" that we were never able to get out with our old washer.  Just one cycle on allergen and there is no trace of the pet odors.  Partially this is due to this washer just being a lot better at cleaning than the old one, but the allergen cycle and "sanitize" options are great for my allergies and for getting out musty mildew odors from towels.
3) It's very quiet.  When washing the only sound you hear is the actual clothes tumbling, the motor is silent.  When spinning it hums along quietly.  It's in our garage but even if it were in the house I would consider it quiet enough.

Bottom line we love this washer so far.  We have had no problem and clothes are coming out cleaner than ever.
I recommend you actually read the manual so you understand how to operate it properly.  I see a lot of negative reviews different places on the internet because it appears these people aren't using it properly.  Just 10 minutes with the manual and make sure you use the right cycles as explained in the manual.
