Maytag Top Load Washer Review Summary

Reviews are mixed on the Maytag top load washing machine. Owners agree that it's a basic, easy-to-use washing machine. One reviewer notes that even her teen can handle washing with this machine. The Magtag is a bit small for some families and tends to get off balance if overloaded or when doing bedding. It cleans pretty well though some pre-treating may be needed. Owners of newer models note some problems with the quality of the machines and have needed repairs.

I would like to have a little more room.  I feel like putting a big comforter in it is a little cramped and does not do the best job but other than that it is a great washing machine.  It cleans excellent.  It is not too loud.  I like the setting options.  It is easy to… read full review »

I spent a lot of time going back and forth about this washer.  I loved the features it offered and the "look" but had to get past the price- it was a lot of money for my family to spend on an appliance.  It was worth every penny.  I love this washer! The one down side is that when I was sheets they tend to throw the washer into an uneven load and I have to rearrange the sheets but even then it doesn't "walk" around in the laundry room.  My laundry comes out so much cleaner and drier than in any other washer I have used. … read full review »

Can washing clothes be fun?  It can certainly be more enjoyable with this Maytag washer!  In the past I've found that I couldn't wash too many clothes at a time because the washer would fill up too quickly, and the clothes weren't always completely spotless.  It's great to be able to keep up with the laundry without doing so many loads with this large capacity washer.  The clothes are thoroughly somersaulted through the water for a thorough cleaning.  It's many features, including timed release for detergent, bleach and fabric softener, and 11 different wash cycles… read full review »

I have a Maytag top loud washer and 4 kids. I use it everyday. I have had no problems with it. It's reliable, and very easy to use. I use the machine for about 5 or 6 loads a day and it stands up well to the abuse that I put it through. You don't really even need to pretreat stains. It has an agitator that works the clothes really good, so that basically does the job for you. No more scrubbing it with a toothbrush before you wash it. This isn't for every stain, but for the majority of them it's good all on it's own. I would recommend Maytag to anyone.… read full review »

Our washing machine runs at least 2 loads a day, and after 4 years, my washer is running with no problems! It has extra large capacity, and gets my clothes very clean!  — — I really like the stainless steel drum.  It never rips or tears like the plastic drum can, and it never absorbs smells from laundry that turns sour.  The automatic temperature control also optimizes my soap usage.  I can use the minimum recommended abount of laundry soap, and my clothes come out… read full review »

the maytag topload washer may have at one time been a reliable washer...not anymore, not only did it do a poor job, it broke down several times I guess they are making more money repairing them, than selling them, STAY AWAY from MAYTAG. they were calling themselves the dependability people they...  better get a new name. I ended up buying a little known brand and its doing an excellent job...no problems at… read full review »

I have had my Maytag washer for over 10 years and love it. i have never had a single problem with it, which is very rare for washing machines. It does a great job washing the clothes. The clothes come out very clean and fresh smelling. The machine is also very quiet, most of the time, I don't even remember it's running. It is a great investment and well worth the… read full review »

Great machine and it has met my needs over and over. It's heavy duty enough for my quilts and blankets and it's durable enough to last. — — I love how quiet it runs; it seems to have half the noise that my old machine had. Clothes come out clean and I don't have the tangled bras and tank tops as I did with my old machine. … read full review »

Does what you would expect from a washer, cleans your clothes!!! Sheets do not cause unbalanced load often, so quiet I need a timer to tell me its done. So easy to use that my teenagers can use it. It is definately worth the price and if it went caput on me, I would buy another of the same brand and… read full review »

I purchased this washer and dryer set from a local home improvement store. I was very excited to have new laundry equipment. Overall, this washer works very well. It is pretty fast, I haven't seen a spike in our electricity or water bills, fits enough clothing for our family (2 adults and 2 dogs). However, it is a bit more noisy than I would like. I want to turn the washer on and be able to sit in the next room and not hear it at all. — —… read full review »
