NOTE G--MINORITY INTEREST

In the second quarter of 2002, Maytag purchased the noncontrolling interest in
Anvil Technologies LLC from an outside investor for $99.9 million. Maytag
financed this purchase with commercial paper classified as notes payable on the
Consolidated Balance Sheet. The loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest
in the Consolidated Statements of Income consisted of the following:

NOTE H - IMPACT OF RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

In June 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No.
142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001. Under the new rules, goodwill and intangible
assets deemed to have indefinite lives are no longer amortized but subject to
annual impairment tests in accordance with the Statement. During the first
quarter of 2002, Maytag performed the first of the required impairment tests of
goodwill as of January 1, 2002 and determined that no adjustment was necessary
to the carrying value of goodwill. Maytag currently has no intangible assets
with indefinite lives.

                                       11

Maytag applied the new rules on accounting for goodwill and other intangible
assets beginning in the first quarter of 2002. The following table discloses pro
forma results for net income and earnings per share as if SFAS 142 were adopted

</TABLE>

As of September 30, 2002, Maytag had net goodwill of $265.8 million and $14.1
million reflected in its home and commercial appliances reportable segments,
respectively. Estimated amortization expense for other intangibles will be
approximately $1.2 million for each of the next five years. During the third
quarter of 2002, Maytag finalized the valuation of Amana Appliance's net assets
that were purchased August 1, 2001. As a result, $20.6 million of goodwill was
recorded in the third quarter of 2002. The purchase contract contains a price
adjustment mechanism, that when ultimately settled, could result in a change in
this goodwill amount.

The FASB issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of
Long-Lived Assets," effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2001. It establishes a single accounting method for long-lived assets to be
disposed of, including those that are part of discontinued operations, and
broadens the presentation requirements for discontinued operations to include
components of an entity disposed of rather than a segment of a business. Maytag
early adopted SFAS No. 144 and, as a result, classified its 50.5 percent owned
joint venture in China ("Rongshida-Maytag") and the Blodgett foodservice
operations, sold in December 2001, as discontinued operations. Previously,
Blodgett was included in the commercial appliances segment and the international
segment consisted solely of Rongshida-Maytag. All prior periods presented have
been reclassified to reflect these results.

In November 2001, the FASB's Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached consensus
on Issue No. 01-9, "Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer
or a Reseller of the Vendor's Products." This guidance was effective for periods
beginning after December 15, 2001. EITF 01-9 requires companies to classify
certain sales incentive costs as a reduction of sales. These costs were
previously classified in selling, general and administrative expense. Maytag
applied the new rules beginning in the first quarter of 2002, and all prior
periods presented have been restated, as required. There was no impact on
Maytag's operating income or net income as a result of the new accounting
policy.

In October 2002, Maytag announced its intention to close a refrigeration
manufacturing facility in Galesburg, Illinois by the end of 2004. In the fourth
quarter of 2002, Maytag will recognize pre-tax restructuring charges of $70 to
$80 million in connection with the planned closing. The total pre-tax
restructuring charges are estimated to be in the range of $140 to $160 million,
with the remaining expense to be recognized in 2003 and 2004. These charges
include asset impairment, severance costs and moving expenses. Approximately $50
million of the total restructuring charges will be cash items, most of which
will be incurred in 2004 and 2005.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.

Comparison of 2002 with 2001

Maytag Corporation ("Maytag") has two reportable segments: home and commercial
appliances. (See discussion and financial information about Maytag's reportable
segments in "Note F - Segment Reporting" section of the Notes to Consolidated
Financial Statements.)

     Maytag adopted a new accounting standard in the first quarter of 2002 that
requires certain sales incentives previously recognized in selling, general and
administrative expenses to be classified as a reduction of sales. EITF 01-9
states that any cash consideration provided to customers that has no
identifiable benefit to Maytag other than to increase sales is required to be
classified as a reduction of sales. This reclassification does not change
previously reported operating income or net income from continuing operations;
however, the reduction does impact the gross profit and operating income
margins. The amount considered as an additional reduction of sales in accordance
with this accounting standard was $135.5 million for the first nine months of
2002 compared to $103.5 million for the first nine months of 2001. Prior periods
have been restated to reflect this change.

Net Sales: Consolidated net sales were $1.168 billion in the third quarter of
2002, an increase of 3 percent compared to the same period in 2001. For the
first nine months of 2002, consolidated net sales were $3.539 billion, an
increase of 15 percent from the same period in 2001.

     Home appliances net sales, which include major appliances, floor care
products and international export sales, were 3 percent higher in the third
quarter of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. While the sales of major
appliances were flat, floor care sales were higher due to the introduction of a
new product category in the first quarter of 2002. The third quarter of 2001
included only two months of the Amana appliance business that was purchased on
August 1, 2001. For the first nine months of 2002, net sales increased 15%
reflecting the impact of the Amana acquisition and sales of the new floor care
product.

     U.S. industry unit shipments of major appliances were flat in the third
quarter of 2002. Maytag's unit shipments declined with the largest decreases in
refrigeration and laundry. The decrease in laundry shipments was due to a
delayed product launch that resulted in shipments not being made until the
fourth quarter. Dishwasher unit shipments increased in the last month of the
quarter due to the introduction of a new dishwasher product. In floor care,
industry-wide shipments of uprights were down 4.5 percent in the third quarter
of 2002. Maytag's unit shipments of uprights increased in the quarter. Maytag
expects the major appliance industry to be flat for the fourth quarter compared
to the prior year. As a result, Maytag expects full year industry growth of
about 5 percent in 2002 compared to 2001. Maytag expects floor care industry
unit growth to be up about 3 percent for the fourth quarter of 2002 compared to
the same period last year. For the full year 2002, the floor care industry is
expected to be down marginally.

     Commercial appliances net sales, which include vending and food service
equipment, increased 11 percent in the third quarter of 2002 compared to the
same period in 2001. The increase in sales is due to increased vending equipment
sales. Increases in sales of glass-front venders were partially offset by
decreases in traditional vender sales. For the first nine months of 2002, net
sales of commercial appliances were up 5 percent primarily due to the increased
glass-front vender sales. For the full year 2002, Maytag expects the vending
equipment industry to be flat to slightly lower relative to 2001, but expects
increased average selling prices of its vending equipment due to product mix.

Gross Profit: Consolidated gross profit as a percent of sales, excluding an $8.3
million gain on a distribution center sale recorded in cost of sales, increased
to 20.2 percent in the third quarter of 2002 from 19.4 percent of sales in the
same period in 2001. Consolidated gross profit as a percent of sales, excluding
the gain on sale, increased to 21.6 percent for the first nine months of 2002
from 20.5 percent of sales in the same period in 2001. The increases in gross
margin in the third quarter and first nine months of 2002 were due to improved
product mix, lower material costs and favorable warranty performance. These
increases were partially offset by higher research and development costs.
Maytag's gross profit has not been directly affected by tariffs on

                                       15

<PAGE>

foreign steel imports in 2002 because it purchases domestically produced steel.
Gross profit as a percent of sales was lower in the third quarter compared to
the second quarter of 2002 because of the impact of lower factory production
levels. Gross profit as a percent of sales for the fourth quarter of 2002 is
anticipated to be similar to the third quarter as Maytag continues to reduce
inventory levels.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: Consolidated selling, general and
administrative expenses were 11.6 percent of sales in the third quarter of 2002
compared to 12.3 percent of sales in the same period in 2001. Consolidated
selling, general and administrative expenses were 12.3 percent of sales in the
first nine months of 2002 compared to 13.3 percent of sales in the same period
in 2001. These decreases as a percentage of sales were due to an increase in
sales, synergies resulting from the Amana acquisition, a corporate-wide cost
reduction initiative and a change in accounting standards, effective January 1,
2002, whereby goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have indefinite lives are
no longer being amortized. While these assets will be subject to impairment
tests to assess their valuation, there were no charges related to impairment
during the third quarter or nine months ended September 30, 2002. Amortization
of goodwill included in the third quarter and first nine months of 2001 was $2.5
million and $7.5 million, respectively. This reduction in selling, general and
administrative expenses as a percent of sales was achieved despite incurring 13
percent more in national advertising expense in the third quarter and first nine
months, respectively, as compared to last year. Selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased for the third quarter of 2002 compared to the
second quarter of 2002 due partially to a reversal of an accrual made for
incentive compensation in the first two quarters.

Operating Income: Consolidated operating income as a percent of sales for the
third quarter of 2002, excluding the gain on a distribution center sale,
increased to 8.6 percent of sales compared to 7.0 percent of sales in the same
period in 2001. Consolidated operating income as a percent of sales for the
first nine months of 2002, excluding the gain on sale, increased to 9.3 percent
of sales compared to 7.2 percent of sales in the same period in 2001. The
increases in operating margin were due to an increase in gross margin as a
percent of sales and decreased selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percent of sales, as discussed above. For the third quarter and first nine
months of 2002 compared to the same periods in 2001, excluding the gain on sale,
operating income was 26 percent and 49 percent higher, respectively, primarily
due to cost synergies resulting from the Amana acquisition and cost reduction
initiatives.

     Home appliances operating margin for the third quarter of 2002, excluding
the gain on sale, was 9.5 percent of sales compared to 7.9 percent of sales in
the same period in 2001. Operating margin for the first nine months of 2002 was
10.5 percent of sales compared to 8.3 percent of sales in the same period in
2001. The increases in operating margin were due to an increase in gross margin
as a percent of sales and decreased selling, general and administrative expenses
as a percent of sales discussed above. Home appliances operating income,
excluding the gain on sale, increased 23 percent in the third quarter of 2002
compared to 2001. Operating income, excluding the gain on sale, increased 46
percent in the first nine months of 2002 compared to 2001. The increases in
operating income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2002 were due to
cost synergies resulting from the Amana acquisition and cost reduction
initiatives.

     Commercial appliances operating margin for the third quarter of 2002 was
9.0 percent of sales compared to 4.9 percent of sales in the same period in
2001. Operating margin for the first nine months of 2002 was 7.4 percent of
sales compared to 5.2 percent of sales in the same period in 2001. The increase
in operating margin for the third quarter and first nine months was primarily
due to increased sales and improved gross margin and reduced selling, general
and administrative expenses as a percent of sales. Commercial appliances
operating income increased 104 percent in the third quarter of 2002 compared to
the same period in 2001. Operating income increased 48 percent in the first nine
months of 2002 compared to the same period in 2001. The increases in operating
income for the third quarter and first nine months of 2002 were due to the
factors discussed above.

     Corporate operating expenses for the third quarter and first nine months of
2002 compared to the same periods in 2001 were 18 percent and 23 percent higher,
respectively. The third quarter increase was primarily due to higher charitable
contribution expense. The increase for the first nine months was primarily due
to increases in incentive compensation resulting from higher earnings and
charitable contribution expense.

Interest Expense: Interest expense for the third quarter of 2002 was 20 percent
lower than for the same period in the prior year. The decrease was due to the
on-going reduction of debt as well as lower average interest rates. Interest
expense for the first nine months of 2002 was 3 percent higher than for the same
period in the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the additional debt
issued in 2001 for the acquisition of Amana, partially offset by lower average
interest rates.

Income Taxes: The effective tax rate for the third quarter of 2002 was 34
percent compared to an effective tax rate for the same period in 2001 of 33.4
percent. The effective tax rate for the first nine months of 2002 was 34 percent
compared to an effective tax rate for the same period in 2001 of 33 percent,
excluding a one-time tax benefit of $42 million. The effective tax rate has
increased for the third quarter and first nine months of 2002 due to the
retirement of the Maytag Capital Trusts in 2001 and the second quarter 2002
purchase of the noncontrolling interest in Anvil Technologies LLC from an
outside investor (For further discussion of both, see "Minority Interest" in
this Management's Discussion and Analysis below). The financing costs associated
with the Maytag Capital Trusts and the noncontrolling interest in Anvil
Technologies LLC were reflected as minority interests with the tax benefit
recognized as a component of tax expense. These minority interests have been
retired and refinanced with borrowings for which interest expense has reduced
income before tax and minority interests. Therefore, tax expense is unaffected
by the retirement of these instruments and this increases the effective tax
rate.

The increased rate also was due to increased income in 2002 that caused tax
credits to have less of an impact on lowering the effective tax rate. The effect
of these items on the effective tax rate was partially offset by the elimination
of goodwill amortization in 2002 that is nondeductible for income taxes.

Minority Interest: Minority interest was down $1.9 million and $8.9 million from
the third quarter and first nine months of 2001, respectively. The third quarter
decrease was due to Maytag purchasing the noncontrolling interest in Anvil
Technologies LLC from an outside investor in June 2002. The nine month decrease
was due to the retirement of the Maytag Trusts during the third quarter of 2001
and the purchase of the noncontrolling interest in Anvil.

Discontinued Operations: Maytag completed the sale of its Blodgett foodservice
operations in December 2001 and continues efforts to dispose of its interest in
the 50.5 percent owned joint venture in China ("Rongshida-Maytag"). The
operations of Rongshida-Maytag have been reflected as discontinued operations,
and prior year financial statements have been restated to reflect Blodgett and
Rongshida-Maytag as discontinued operations.

Net Income: The following tables summarize the impact of special items that
includes the one-time tax benefit, gain on sale of a distribution center,
cumulative effect of accounting change, extraordinary item and discontinued
operations on reported net income and diluted earnings per share. Net income
excluding special items for the third quarter of 2002 increased 48 percent to
$55.6 million from $37.5 million in the third quarter of 2001. Net income
excluding special items for the first nine months of 2002 increased 79 percent
to $182 million from $101.7 million in the first nine months of 2001. The
increases were primarily due to the increase in operating income described
above. The increases in diluted earnings per share excluding special charges in
the third quarter and first nine months of 2002 compared to the same periods in
2001 were due primarily to the increase in net income as average diluted shares
outstanding remain comparable.

Pension and Postretirement

For full year 2002, combined pension and postretirement medical expenses are
expected to be approximately $105 million. While Maytag is finalizing its
actuarial assumptions for 2003, it expects combined pension and postretirement
medical expenses to increase to approximately $152 million in 2003. This
increase is driven primarily by actuarial assumptions, including lower discount
rates, lower expected rate of return assumptions and higher health care
inflation rate assumptions. In addition, lower than expected returns on pension
fund assets due to a smaller invested asset base as well as increases in service
costs are contributing to the increased expense. Maytag expects to contribute
approximately $160 million to the pension plan in 2003, compared to $135 million
in 2002, and expects its benefit payments for postretirement medical expenses to
remain at the same level or be slightly higher than the full year 2002 estimate
of $40 million. Maytag is in the process of finalizing its pension plan
actuarial valuation but expects a decline in the market value of the pension
fund assets as well as higher obligations associated with a lower discount rate
to result in an additional liability of approximately $250 million with an
amount charged to equity of approximately $180 million, net of tax

                                       18

<PAGE>

(approximately $272 million before tax) in the fourth quarter of 2002. The
accumulated balance within equity related to the underfunded status of the plan
is expected to be approximately $357 million, net of tax (approximately $550
million before tax) as of December 31, 2002.

Projections for 2003

Maytag expects U.S. industry shipments of major appliances for the full year
2003 to be up 2 percent over 2002 and expects floor care industry unit growth of
approximately 3 percent in 2003. Maytag expects the vending equipment industry
to be down 5 to 6 percent in 2003 compared to 2002. Maytag projects an increase
in combined pension and postretirement medical expense for 2003 as discussed
above and expects the cost of purchasing steel will increase in 2003 because of
a supply and demand imbalance and tariffs. Maytag has plans in place to generate
targeted cost savings in various areas that are expected to fully offset these
increased expenses. As a result, Maytag estimates income from continuing
operations, excluding restructuring charges, will be between $3.10 and $3.20 per
share.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Maytag's primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by operating activities
and borrowings. Detailed information on Maytag's cash flows is presented in the
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities: Cash flow provided by operating
activities consists primarily of net income adjusted for certain non-cash items,
changes in working capital items, changes in pension assets and liabilities and
postretirement medical benefits. Non-cash items include depreciation and
amortization and deferred income taxes. Working capital items consist primarily
of accounts receivable, inventories, other current assets and other current
liabilities.

     Net cash provided by continuing operations for the first nine months of
2002 was $177 million, a decrease of $67 million from the prior year. This was
primarily due to $135 million of voluntary pension contributions in 2002
compared with $65 million in contributions in the first nine months of the prior
year. The accounts receivable balance at September 30, 2002 was higher than the
balance at June 30, 2002 due to strong sales in September. Maytag's inventory
levels are expected to continue decreasing in the fourth quarter. Therefore,
Maytag expects changes in working capital to positively impact cash from
continuing operations in the fourth quarter.

     A portion of Maytag's accounts receivable is concentrated among major
national retailers. A significant loss of business with any of these retailers
could have an adverse impact on Maytag's ongoing operations. Maytag continues to
sell products to a major retailer that has filed for reorganization under
bankruptcy laws. The accounts receivable balance with this retailer is less than
4% of Maytag's net accounts receivable at September 30, 2002.

Total Investing Activities: Maytag's capital expenditures represent continual
investments in its businesses for new product designs, cost reduction programs,
replacement of equipment, capacity expansion and government mandated product
requirements and similar items.

     Capital expenditures in the first nine months of 2002 were $157 million
compared to $102 million in 2001. Maytag plans to invest approximately $225
million in capital expenditures in 2002.

Total Financing Activities: Dividend payments on Maytag's common stock in the
first nine months of 2002 and 2001 were $42 million and $41 million,
respectively, or $0.54 per share for both periods.

     Funding requirements for investing and financing activities in excess of
cash on hand and cash flow from operations are supplemented by borrowings.
Maytag's commercial paper program is supported by two credit agreements with a
consortium of lenders that provide revolving credit facilities of $200 million
each, totaling $400 million. These agreements expire May 1, 2003 and May 3,
2004. Maytag had $272 million of commercial paper outstanding as of September
30, 2002 that is classified in notes payable on the balance sheet. The credit

                                       19

<PAGE>

agreements include financial covenants with respect to interest coverage and
leverage that Maytag was in compliance with as of September 30, 2002. Maytag
expects to be in compliance with these financial covenants throughout 2002. The
existence of an event of default under the credit agreement would adversely
impact Maytag's ability to borrow through the sale of commercial paper. Maytag
has a shelf registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission
providing the ability to issue publicly a remaining aggregate of $300 million of
medium-term notes as of September 30, 2002.

     In the second quarter of 2002, Maytag purchased the noncontrolling interest
in Anvil Technologies LLC from an outside investor for $99.9 million. Maytag
financed this purchase with commercial paper.

     Including the purchase of the minority interest in Anvil, Maytag has
reduced financing obligations by $102 million in the first nine months of 2002.
For the full year 2002, Maytag expects to reduce financing obligations by $200
million.

Shareowners' Equity

Maytag shareowner's equity has decreased over the last several years due to the
share repurchase program that increased the cost of treasury stock held from
$219 thousand at December 31, 1994 to $1.5 billion at December 31, 2001. Maytag
has also made a pension adjustment that reduced equity in 2001 and expects a
further pension adjustment to decrease equity in the fourth quarter of 2002 (for
further discussion see "Pension and Postretirement" in this Management's
Discussion & Analysis above). Fourth quarter restructuring charges associated
with Maytag's announcement of a closing of a refrigeration manufacturing
facility (for further discussion see "Fourth Quarter Restructuring Charges" in
this Management's Discussion & Analysis below) will decrease equity as well.
Management does not believe that the level of equity poses a risk to Maytag
because it is not subject to any debt covenants in its debt instruments that
relate to equity or any debt-to-asset ratios. Maytag has consistently generated
positive net income and significant cash flows from operations over the last
several years.

Fourth Quarter Restructuring Charges

In October 2002, Maytag announced its intention to close a refrigeration
manufacturing facility in Galesburg, Illinois by the end of 2004. In the fourth
quarter of 2002, the Company will recognize pre-tax restructuring charges of $70
to $80 million in connection with the planned closing. The total pre-tax
restructuring charges are estimated to be in the range of $140 to $160 million,
with the remaining expense to be recognized in 2003 and 2004. These charges
include asset impairment, severance costs and moving expenses. Annual cost
savings of approximately $35 to $40 million are expected when the plan is fully
implemented. Approximately $50 million of the total restructuring charges will
be cash items, most of which will be incurred in 2004 and 2005.

Market Risks

Maytag is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to its transactions,
assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. To manage certain
foreign exchange exposures, foreign currency forward contracts are utilized.
Portions of the anticipated foreign currency denominated export sales
transactions, which are denominated primarily in Canadian dollars, are hedged.

     There is also an exposure to commodity price risk related to the purchase
of selected commodities used in the manufacture of products. To reduce the
effect of changing raw material prices for selected commodities, commodity swap
agreements are used to hedge a portion of anticipated raw material purchases on
selected commodities.

     Maytag also is exposed to interest rate risk in its debt portfolio and thus
uses interest rate swap contracts to adjust the proportion of total debt that is
subject to variable and fixed interest rates. The swaps involve the exchange of
fixed and variable rate payments without exchanging the notional principal
amount.

                                       20

<PAGE>

     There have been no material changes in the reported market risks of the
Company's since December 31, 2001. See further discussion of these market risks
and related financial instruments in the Maytag Corporation annual report on
Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001.

Contingencies

Maytag has contingent liabilities arising in the normal course of business,
including pending litigation, environmental remediation, taxes and other claims.
The Company's legal department estimates the costs to settle pending litigation,
including legal expenses, based on its experience involving similar cases,
specific facts known, and, if applicable based on judgments of outside counsel.
Maytag believes the outcome of these matters will not have a materially adverse
effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash
flows.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Management's Discussion and Analysis contains statements that are not
historical facts and are considered "forward-looking" within the meaning of the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking
statements are identified by their use of the terms: "expect(s)," "intend(s),"
"may impact," "plan(s)," "should" or similar terms. Maytag or its
representatives may also make similar forward-looking statements from time to
time orally or in writing. Maytag cautions the reader that these forward-looking
statements are subject to a number of risks, uncertainties, or other factors
that may cause (and in some cases have caused) actual results to differ
materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. These risks
and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following: business
conditions and growth of industries in which Maytag competes, including changes
in economic conditions in the geographic areas where Maytag's operations exist
or products are sold; timing, start-up and customer acceptance of newly designed
products; shortages of manufacturing capacity; competitive factors, such as
price competition and new product introductions; significant loss of business or
inability to collect accounts receivable from a major national retailer; the
cost and availability of raw materials and purchased components, including the
impact of tariffs, the timing and progress with which Maytag can continue to
achieve further cost reductions and savings from its SG&A and restructuring
initiatives; union labor relationships; progress on capital projects; the impact
of business acquisitions or dispositions; the ability of Maytag to integrate the
operations from acquisitions into its operations; the costs of complying with
governmental regulations; litigation, product warranty claims, energy supply,
pricing, or supplier disruptions, currency fluctuations or the material
worsening of economic and political situations around the world.

These factors may not constitute all factors that could cause actual results to
differ materially from those discussed in any forward-looking statement. Maytag
operates in a continually changing business environment and new facts emerge
from time to time. Maytag cannot predict such factors nor can it assess the
impact, if any, of such factors on Maytag's financial position or its results of
operations. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as
a predictor of actual results. Maytag disclaims any responsibility to update any
forward-looking statement provided in this document.

Item 3.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

See discussion of quantitative and qualitative disclosures about market risk in
"Market Risks" section of Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations.

Item 4.  Controls and Procedures

Within the 90 days prior to the date of the filing of this report, Maytag
carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of
Maytag's management, including Maytag's Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of Maytag's
disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-14 under the Exchange
Act of 1934. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief
Financial Officer concluded that Maytag's disclosure controls and procedures are
effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be
included in the Maytag's periodic SEC filings relating to Maytag (including its
consolidated subsidiaries).

There were no significant changes in Maytag's internal controls or in other
factors that could significantly affect these internal controls subsequent to
the date of our most recent evaluation.
