Product review (1 stars): Door Remains Locked after Wash and Random Alarms Even When Not in Use
If it becomes available, don't buy it.  Purchased through a big box stored at on Nov 30, 2014, but it was directly shipped by factory and delivered to us on December 19th. Starting with the first wash, the door remained locked for what seemed to be forever. It finally unlocked and the clothes on the bottom of the washer were wet. We put through a spin cycle and they seemed to dry off better. We had random issues with this for a few days. The washer then started alarming E1 F3 at random times - even during the middle of the night when the last wash was done hours or days before. Technician came, didn't find anything wrong with it. He called the back office support line and they had him check the water level sensor switch and he diagnosed it as bad but he didn't have one. Another tech came out a few days later and replaced the switch. We hoped it had fixed it, but then went away for a week only to come back to find the alarm going off. Reset the alarm, did one load of laundry and it seemed to go fine. Then the machine alarmed again at 2AM in the morning. Called Maytag to have the machine replaced, but they insist that they need to send a tech again. The problem is intermittent and I expect the technician to not find anything. What would cause a washing machine to just randomly start alarming in the middle of the night? Have resorted to unplugging the machine when not in use. Regretting the purchase of my first Maytag product.
