Soloact Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Bought an Amana washer and dryer(both white in color) when i bought my house...shopped around for almost a week and a half looking for a deal.Got them both on sale@ Menards for just under 600 bux..no problems or issues yet.Can't see paying 1500.00 or more when they just don't last these days.Everyone i talked to said to stay clear of anything digitally controlled,and or front mounted b.s.So far,couldn't be happier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pervitizm Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 As an ex appliance repairman I always thought the Maytags were more hype than anything special. Give me a good old Kenmore or Whirlpool for the money anyday. Dude, who do you think owns the Whirlpool company? That's right Maytag, so your Whirlpool unit is just a Maytag without the Maytag name on it. To the OP, that sucks the issues your having with your Maytags. Sounds like the repair-techs comming out to the house doesn't know what he/she is doing. Only suggest I would say is that with the next applicances you buy get a longer warranty than 1 year. My Maytag washer/drye & frig are on 5+ year warranties. The heating element for the dryer and turning motor for the washer are on 10 year Maytag warranties.

They are as different as a Ford is to a Honda. Tear them apart, They are completely different style machines. As stated previously I was a repairman for many years. I've had more machines tore down than I care to remember. Whirlpool and Kenmores are not rebadged Maytags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
