Product review (2 stars): Poor Quality
We purchased a suite of appliances, including this refrigerator/freezer May 2012 to be installed in our newly built home because we wanted to buy "American" made products. So much for that bad idea. I guess we got "lucky" because it took 17 months for the compressor to go south. Talked to several local repair people who hinted Maytag knew of this faulty compressor issue. Started working with their less than ideal customer service department, and after four attempts finally got the compressor replaced under warranty, but not until after paying $75 to a business to confirm the unit was bad, and after waiting 12 days for the repair. Yes, I was offered, and did receive, a pre-paid MasterCard for the spoiled food but am still out the initial $75 diagnosis bill.

With all that being said, I'm still extremely disappointed with the Maytag line. I feel they're nothing more than mislabeled Whirlpools. There are still issues with the refrigerator/freezer. It's impossible to have the freezer light bulb last more than three weeks. I've given up replacing them. Also, ever since the compressor repair was completed the ice maker has quit working. Since the unit is out of warranty I'm guessing a repair offer from Maytag, or Whirlpool is out of the question and I'm not sure I want to put anymore money into this sorry appliance.

The ironic part is that it's been years since the commercials ran stating the job role of the Maytag repairman was the loneliest job in the world. It appears there's a good reason why that spot was yanked.

And as a final note, the above comment was rejected from the Maytag website because it was derogatory. Wow.
