Maytag Washers & Dryers Reviews

Had my dryer suddenly melt inside. Can't get in contact with a person to help when I call the service number and "live chat" isn't live. If you ask to speak to an agent, it will say it is getting an agent, and then no one ever comes.

I bought a new Maytag top load washer model #MVW6500MBK and dryer model #MED6500MBK set in June 2025. In March 2026 the dryer failed and needed a bearing replacement for the drum to spin (the repair tech said this is a common issue that he sees with Maytag dryers). In May 2026 the washer failed- the lights on the control panel are intermittently out and the lid won't lock. I am currently waiting on a repair tech to come back out. I wish I hadn't replaced my old set with this new trash.

I have always bought Maytag washer and dryer, my set was just delivered today 5/28/26 I got the 4.7 cuft. Washer. What I've noticed is steam gets on the control board while washer is filling from hot water. Steam all over control board. This will ruin it! What is the fix maytag?

Sandra **. Washer & Dryer; Had to buy the Pet Pro and Extra Power set. Not what I wanted but the one I did wasn't available when we bought this set on April 16; 2026. The done signal doesn't work; quick wash takes a long time. There is no place to put your detergent let alone the fabric softener. I can not open it once started; the machine starts over. Doesn't spin the clothes as well as my older LG did. The water splashes on top of the lid; the push buttons are so hard to push to start the machines that my fingers bend over. Far too many dials to even consider setting and using them. I HATE it. Dryer YMED5605RW; washer MTW5605RW.

I purchased a washer in June 2024. It is now May 2026 and the main control board has stopped working. Called Maytag and they said too bad. Terrible product.

I purchased the new pet washer machine and extended warranty in November 2025 from Home Depot. In March 2026 my washer has an error code. I had 4 technician appointments. Only one has showed up due to not having technician. The technician stated my washer needed a new control board, drain drum and lock. I have made multiple calls to Maytag, All State and Home Depot. As of today, I still have no answers as to when my washer will be fixed. Do Not buy Maytag products! Do Not buy from Home Depot. They do not stand by their products. Awfully

So I bought my dryer from menards in October of 2025. They have tried to repair it 3 times. It is now deemed unrepairable and they gave me a 15% loyalty coupon to go buy another.

Electronic menus do not work. Cannot manually control functions. Water levels inadequate, can't control features with the electronic menu, because they do not work as stated. For example, a load of whites added bleach and did a manual fill. Washer is only 1/8 full, now computerized menu is requiring a 3-hour soak. Will not let me cancel, canceling will also drain out my soap. Cannot start the washer. What kind of moron puts a computer chip in a washing machine????

Washer 7232HWZ purchased August 2025 from Home Depot. I compared to other brands and relied on my previous experience with Maytag. Now I would not recommend this washer to anyone. The design abuses clothing by twisting, tangling and abrading the material. After the cycle, everything must be un-knotted and separated before putting in the dryer. It will shred older worn fabrics like Levis, which before the wash would have given me a few more years of wear. Now they are ready for the trash. This machine is not kind to your clothing!

I purchased a washer and dryer and I am so disappointed. Just made my last payment and I have to replace the computer in it. Will not final spin. Makes noise when it is not even on. I have to unplug it cause it thinks the power is on. This machine is 18 months old .Last time I buy Maytag.

This machine is almost new. We attempt to use it every few months. Each episode is a challenge. Will it start today or not. Perhaps one in 4. Will it clean? Absolutely not as it has no agitator. It just hums a lot and cleans nothing.

I purchased my washing machine in November 2025. By February 2026, the machine started making a loud noise, so I contacted Home Depot, where I originally purchased the appliance. They sent a technician to inspect it, and he informed me that the machine needed to be replaced as soon as possible. When I contacted Home Depot again, they advised me to call the extended warranty company because I had purchased an extended warranty plan. However, when I contacted the warranty company, they told me that I needed to speak directly with the manufacturer. At that point, I became confused about who was responsible for handling the issue, and unfortunately, nothing was done until the washing machine completely stopped working in March 2026.

Spent over $2,000 on a brand-new Maytag washer and dryer set in October 2024 thinking I was buying something reliable. Fast forward to April 2026 - barely a year and a half later and conveniently SIX MONTHS after the pathetic 1-year warranty expired - the washer completely self-destructs. Needed a new main wiring harness, top lid latch, water pump, AND main control board. Absolutely unbelievable.

I bought a Maytag washer with the pet hair cleaning system. Sounded good as I have 3 GSDs. The problem is it does not, under any water level settings, add enough water. After putting a small amount in the tub it starts agitating while adding water. This is supposed to be the soak cycle but less that 1/2 of the clothes are wet during this. Eventually it start adding more. When it goes to the wash cycle, same issue, not enough water. After agitating for 5 minutes the clothes on top are still on top and are not wet. At the end of the wash cycle they are wet but still on top. Rinse is the same problem. My clothes are not getting clean and the soap is not being rinsed out even with the extra rinse.

I wish I did my research before I bought the Maytag brand now I realize by reading all the horrible reviews with a horrible and despicable company. They actually are. My brand new washer within three loads, leaked into damage to my house. That’s a problem but the real problem is how they treat you. They send a service person out over a week later. Tell me they have to order parts for my brand new machine now a total of two more weeks without a washer and having to do my clothes elsewhere all because I had to buy a piece of junk Maytag. Their customer service is absolutely despicable. Whatever you do do not buy a Maytag brand.

I have a Maytag washer and dryer since 2021. I had the washer for 3 months and it stopped working. It needed a new computer board, yet Maytag would not replace it but had multiple repair visits before the board was replaced. It lasted a month and broke. I had to go to the coin laundry for six months before Maytag would replace the machine. Had the new machine for six months and same problem...for months back at the coin laundry. A family of six it became quite pricey not to mention the inconvenience. They finally replaced my Maytag lemon the second time. It has been seen four times by a Maytag repair technician since.

My Maytag washer does a fine job of cleaning clothes. The problem is there is no removable filter to clean lint and dirt that may not be removed in the water. This is a major deficiency in this model. Before you buy, make sure there is a removable filter in the washing machine.

This products are nothing but garbage. Only had this Maytag products for 1 year and had nothing but problems with them. Washer and dryer. Now that my warranty expired 1 year the company won't do anything. This is nothing but a rip off and stealing customers' money with selling us a products that only last for 1 year. Never will I buy this brand again and I will be sure that no one will buy your brand and products.

I have a top load washer model MVW7232HW And it is damaging my clothes to the point They have to be thrown away. I do not overload. Even 6 blouses washed on delicate had to be discarded. I cannot afford to keep this machine and I cannot get a person at the customer support number. Will never buy another Maytag appliance.

Worst washer I have ever purchased! After 6 months of ownership the drain filter became clogged and then I realized the washer did not have a front access door to the filter! A technician came and took the machine apart to access, this is ridiculous! This company use to be known for quality products! No more! Other brands have a front load small access door for consumers to regularly clean out fibers from socks, blankets, bath mats.

Maytag used to be a good name. They have gone downhill right to the bottom of the barrel. Their machine it doesn't fill but one third of the way up the drum. Half the clothes are dry when it's going. Then when it spins it spins the dirt right back into the clothes. And they won't do anything about it because it's working the way they designed it I guess. Stay away from Maytag. Stay away from all the big name units. Go after an unknown name. You'll get a better product.

If I could give a zero I would. We bought our washer March 28th from Menards. The brand was the pet pro system. We paid 800 and some change used it 8 times. It took 7 hours to clean one blanket. It threw 8 different malfunction codes. It broke down after our 8th attempt to clean clothes. Took 8 days after we bought it. Called menards they wouldn't honor anything cause we were past our 7 day mark. Called Maytag it took them 4 days to get a tech out here. Tech showed up couldn't work on our system cause he couldn't find any schematics to follow on maytag's site. He said he had to order a part and it would take 5 to 10 days to get in. He also said I had a lemon but maytag won't honor anything till I come here min. of 4 times. Well here we are on day 15 still no part and still no washer I can use. I will never recommend maytag for anything. Customer service sucks and washer really sucks.

Never buy a Maytag washer.... My son purchased a new Maytag pet pro washer from Lowe's.... He paid cash for it and it has not worked correctly since he bought it.... It stays off balance and vibrates and breaks the latch on the top.... They came out and had to order a latch.... It took almost a week to get it.... They put it in and it still rocks and vibrates and they say it's working fine.... Neither Maytag or Lowe's will do anything about it.

I had a very frustrating experience with Maytag customer service regarding their “10-year limited warranty” on the wash basket. Like most customers, I understood that to mean the entire basket would be covered. However, when I called for service, I was told it only applies to the stainless steel portion—not the full component. Because of that, I was expected to pay out of pocket for the part, even though the warranty labeling is misleading and gives the impression of broader coverage. That feels deceptive and not what a customer would reasonably expect.

Very disappointed in the Pet Pro Washer, which never spins the clothes. The repair guy has made several trips, but there's been no luck yet. It's a new washer, 4 months old. This has been going on since the first load we put in the washer.

These machines are absolute junk. Within six months, the control board fried. It took them three months to get a repair guy over. It took several days to get a hold of Maytag on the phone to start with. They said they were so busy and I replied that’s because you make crap products. The repair guy told me to fix my Speed Queen washer I had on the corner and it would last another 20 years. He also said he’ll fix the Maytag but it would be fried again within two years and he was right. 2.5 years old and it fried again two days ago.

We purchased a new Maytag washer and dryer about 10 months ago. This is the third pair that we've owned in the last 30 years. The washer is a Maytag model # MVW7230. It was working fine for about ten months and then one day it wouldn't go through the entire wash/rinse/spin cycle. It doesn't finish and it won't spin fast enough to get the water completely out. I am now sitting on hold with Maytag customer service for the second time today for almost 30 minutes. I went through this same process when we first reported the problem. It took a week for the repair people to come out and look at it. He fiddled with it for a few minutes and said it was working as it should.

Maytag Washer - Do not buy. Stopped working, LID locked, with a full load of Duluth Alaskan base-layer undergarments after using for a mere 7 weeks of residential use. Took nearly 6 months, multiple days off work and for 3 out of 4 service repair dates - NO call, NO show, and many frustrating phone calls. Phone calls to Maytag who promised quick service, under warranty work to experience some of the WORST customer service by Maytag's 'contracted repair company,' Diamond Factory Service, St Louis Metro. No, Maytag scheduled the 1st service call, and the 3rd; we took off work for an entire day (because the repair tech could arrive any time between 8am-4pm) and guess what?! We did and Diamond Factory was a NO CALL, NO SHOW. So you can spend your money on a new appliance 'backed' with a one year and 10 year warranties, respectively but unlike the past when a company stood behind their products, Maytag does not.

I bought the “Pet Pro” top-loading washing machine 4 months ago and have issues since the start. My clothes come out dirtier than they go in. I use little to no HE detergent and they come out covered in lint that I have to wipe off manually. Maytag seems to be owned by Whirlpool, who is giving me the complete runaround about fixing or replacing it through the one-year warranty. Would absolutely not recommend and have major buyer's remorse.

I bought a Maytag washer and dryer in Nov 2023. Total waste of money for this piece of JUNK! The control panel went out after 2 years (1 year after their non-existent warranty expired). $460.00 to replace it. THERE NEEDS TO BE A CLASS ACTION SUIT FILED AGAINST THIS COMPANY!! I'M DEFINITELY LOOKING INTO IT! I'm so sick nd tired of buy new appliances, only to have them last 2-3 years! Same thing happened with a Samsung refrigerator, a 2 year old Bosch ice maker, an AO Smith water heater. Totally ridiculous. These new appliances are built fail to keep everyone working and it total B.S.!!!

My two year old Maytag dryer broke down. I had a service guy come out to look at it, and what? $600 for parts to repair a two year old machine? I have always had Maytag washers and dryers with fairly good luck. My loyalty to this brand is finished. Never again.

Our last Maytag washer lasted 10 years. The new one we just bought lasted 3 months. They're repairing a 3 month old washer. So I called and asked why this would not be a cause of concern on my part. They had no answer but told me that replacement would have only been possible if it failed before 14 days. How convenient. Lucky for them that it made it 3 months. Do your homework. The Maytag name means mothing. My first clue should have been when they said they've merged with Whirlpool. Look elsewhere.

Don't buy Maytag. Terrible customer service and worse machine.

Purchased a Maytag HE Pet Pro Large Capacity Top Load Washer MVW 6500MBK1, CE2001300 in June 2025 directly from Maytag. From the get go I noticed it wasn't filling completely with water, even when using the deep fill option. If you don't use that, some of the clothes don't even get wet! The agitator starts working before the washer is full, which abrades the fabric causing pilling and excessive lint. Items go into the washer lint free and come out covered in lint! You can see in the slop sink filter the amount of lint produced.

About two months ago my Maytag washer dropped a bolt from the bottom of the washing machine of which I put back in place hand tight. It was also showing codes F7E4, F6E3, F7E3. Tried to call customer service (not easy to get ahold of anyone). Scheduled a tech (Maytag expert). After he stripped the bolt and then broke it he said he couldn’t fix it. Said he didn’t know how or why it was throwing those codes. So I have a 1 year old washer that will not work. Was told to buy a new one even though it’s advertised as a 10 year warranty. Been buying Maytag for 30 years or so. 3 sets of machines now. This is the worst experience I’ve ever had with this company. Maybe a one off but not sure I’ll gamble that again.

I have purchased 2 from Lowe's. 1 in Dec. Of 2023 and the other 2024. Have had door lock problems, rocking when loaded or empty, sensors, not emptying, not filling, and now the newest one needs a control board at a cost of $300 +. No warranty received for either one. So I guess you can say I'm more than reluctant to own another Maytag. Extremely disappointed, they used to be the best for residential.

Maytag washer MVW4505MW1 lid lock broke at just under two years old Average type use. Lid lock broke. Looked at it. Very inexpensive plastic parts at lid. Called Whirlpool. Offered to service it for $360. Machine cost approximately $800. New part on Amazon cost $60. Multiple YouTube videos on how to replace. Will never buy Whirlpool/Maytag again. Old commercial of repairman having nothing to do rings true today because who in right mind pays almost 50% for a simple repair that should have never happened. Wake up, a 10-15 year purchase is not “washer as service” contract. Poor management. Don’t buy the products and definitely sell the stock if you own it.

Maytag has been my go to when we need to buy a new appliance. NO MORE. Their Maytag washing machine does not put enough water in the tub to get the clothes wet. I have had to carry water in a 5 gallon bucket from my kitchen to add to the tub to cover my clothes. This is absolutely unacceptable. After 3 years of my bucket brigade, I purchased a Speed Queen (love it). I have tried to sell my Maytag but only received messages about how much other people hate their Maytag because their clothes are dry after the wash cycle! There should be a class action lawsuit! Worst machine I have owned in my 57 year marriage. Money thrown away.

I bought a Maytag washer and dryer in Dec of 2024. In March of 2026 the electronic board went out and to repair it the cost is $400. I called customer service and was told that they couldn’t do anything for me but I could purchase another warranty for $360. We only used the washer 3 months out of the year because we are seasonal residents so actually the washer is about 6 months old! Never again will I buy any Maytag products. Check out the warranty before you purchase any appliances.
