    Aug 16 '11

    May 14 '09

    Oct 06 '07
    Pros: Great cleaning and a lot of cycles to choose from.
    Cons: A little expensive...and you really need level floors.

    Cons: Expensive;Doesn't work;Customer service lacking

    Summary: For around $1,000 per appliance, any consumer should expect things to be in good working order (especially a mom of 2 young, active children). I purchased the Maytag Front-Loading Washing Machine (MFW9700SQ1) from the Home Depot in Baltimore, MD. Much to ...
