Extra-Large Capacity Washer with Steam Enhanced Cycles- 4.8 Cu. Ft.

I bought this washer back in September 2016 and have had multiple issues along the way. Similar to the issues that I see others complaining about. I do not frequently write reviews for products, but I would like to use this as an opportunity to warn others about the Maytag line and their poor quality of customer care. Also note, this washer is not bad from a efficiency/load size/cleaning standpoint (other than occasional stain), this issue lies more with the parts that are failing before what I expected to be a reasonable life span. Over the 3 year course, this washer has frequently left the "white stain" that others are referring to (especially visible on dark clothing). I thought it was an issue with the detergent, but now I see that many others have had the same issue. The reason I am here now is due to what I believe to be a control board failure. Just last week our machine stopped turning on. Power to the outlet is still normal, so I know it is not the outlet. After further investigation it was determined that the circuit board is spent after only 3 years of operation. The cost to repair this is quickly tallying up (service tech initial visit $95, new part $300, labor to repair $??) and is nearing $500. Why should I be inclined to repair this part at all if the maintenance is nearing half of the machine’s capital cost? Just so I can replace it again for another $500 in 3 years? I see many others who have had the same issue with this product in an equal (or lesser) timeframe. In calling Maytag they were not helpful other than scheduling a service tech to come out and inspect the unit. I would expect Maytag to hold themselves to a higher standard after charging $899 for this product. I would hope they recall this machine or make it right for the customer. A new washing machine built in 2016 should last longer than 3 years. Unless this problem is resolved from a customer care standpoint I will never buy another Maytag product and will strongly warn against them to others.

Leaves residue on darker clothes, no matter the size of load or detergent type. Lid lock issue, repeatedly. Control board failure. Today we have a new issue! It turns on and stays frozen, unusable... I would gladly swap this out for a 1985 washing machine that actually works.

I bought this years ago and cannot afford another one . I have to wash my clothes 2-3 times to get them sort of clean. Some time the bedding setting works for clothes that are not very dirty. When we talked to the sales person she told us about the special soap you have to use and the special way to load the unit and do not put too big of a load. I get my clothes cleaner in the bathtub!

There is something terribly wrong with the sensors of this washing machine. If there is even one bulky item, such as a blanket, mixed in a load then it doesn't spin properly. It gets stuck in a rinse/spin cycle over and over again. It also leaves white spots on clothes and doesn't seem to really get anything very clean. I HATE THIS MACHINE! I will never buy a Maytag product again because of how bad this washer is. And of course the biggest issue we have started at just after a year when the warranty was over. UGH!!!

Transmission leaking oil after 3 years. Always had difficulty with large loads, losing balance in the spin cycle. Transmission part under warranty, but the service tech had to destroy the paddle to remove it, asit had seized on to the shaft.
