Maytag Neptune™ MAH5500B Front Load Washer

Pros: Efficient, gentle on clothes, lots of cycle options, attractive
Cons: Costly

Updated It was an inauspicious beginning to the New Year. My old reliable washing machine quit in mid rinse cycle, leaving me high and dry (and my clothes soggy wet). The obvious solution, of course, was to call a repair service and have the ...

Pros: Energy efficient, quiet, easy to use!
Cons: None

We have owned our Maytag Neptune Washer for a little over a year now. With a hefty price tag of $1499 it wasn't an easy decision to go through with the actual purchase. Who in their right mind would spend $1499 on a washing machine? Weellll, I ...

Pros: Saving water; works well; quiet; great frills
Cons: Expensive

We bought our first house not all that long ago, and so for the first time we had to face buying things like a washer & dryer. We've tried (where we have the budget) to buy things for the new house that will last. This means that sometimes we buy the...

Pros: It's a great washer, really it is.
Cons: It's also a gamble. How long until you start having problems too?

I’ve been putting off writing a review of my Neptune washing machine for quite some time now. That’s partially because I’m a professional procrastinator, but partially because I wasn’t quite sure what to think. You see, when I first ...

Pros: quiet, front loader, saves water and electricity
Cons: very expensive, can't overstuff, doesn't clean as well as advertised

Maytag has created a new upscale line of Washers and Dryers called Neptune. These high-end pair are marketed as larger and more efficient and therefore you will be paying a premium for them. Last summer I reviewed the MAH4000 and wasn't overly...

Pros: save water and get cleaner laundry
Cons: None

After owning this machine for over a year now, I can honestly say this Maytag front loading washing machine is the Bomb! In other words, it is the best washing machine I have ever owned or have had the honor of using. Yes, the BEST!!

My...

Pros: Very quiet, smooth running, less water used.
Cons: Can make socks disappear!

Hi there, As promised, this is the next part of "Mrs. Schlamozzel's spending spree" Epinion. R ...

Pros: Quietness, warranty, features, electronic controls
Cons: None (and no, I won't complain about the price)

Our old Maytag top loader bit the dust after 10 years of very reliable service. Facing a $300 transmission replacement, I muttered my firmly decisive "uh . . . no," and launched my typically obsessive all-out quest for THE most-bang-for-the-buck ...

Pros: Quiet, can do a massive load.
Cons: Numerous repairs required.

In 2001 this washer was said to be the last washer my family would ever need. Our original criteria for purchasing this washer included water conservation and proven reliability while doing the wash for a family of six. The load capacity with this w ...

Pros: High Capacity - Energy Efficient
Cons: Too Quiet?

I never thought I'd ever consider doing laundry fun, in fact fifteen years ago or so I'd have thought someone who did think so really needed to get out of the house more. But since my new Maytag Neptune washer and dryer arrived in my home, I can...

Pros: Easy on water, energy, and soap. $20.00 bucket cleaned clothes for 7 months
Cons: washcloths and socks always slip into the rubber gasket, then I have to rewash

Pros: CLEANS BEAUTIFULLY, touch panel, timer shows time, easy to use, no mildew for us
Cons: they still don't tell you to only use a TINY bit of detergent

I have had a Maytag Neptune Front Load washer since they first came out at the turn of the century. Had I known what I am about to tell you, I would still have that same washing machine. The first Neptune Front Load Washer from Maytag was known as ...

Pros: Quiet, gental, clean clothes, and clean clothes. :-)
Cons: none.

We went shopping for a new washer and dryer to retire our old "Hand-me-down" Kenmore product.. It was a good machine, but washer was starting to act up, and we had to put it to rest before we end up spending alot of money for parts, and mainly WATER usag ...

Pros: Saves water, electricity, and detergent. Handles large loads.
Cons: Reliability and durability are extremely poor. Very expensive. Very expensive to repair.

I purchased this machine because I wanted the best, most reliable, and most durable washing machine I could buy. I really appreciate making major purchases that operate trouble free for many years or in the case of appliances, even decades. I would ...

Pros: Quiet, efficient, looks great in house, matching dryer, gentle on clothes
Cons: None

The most important features to us in choosing a washer were efficiency, quietness, cleaning ability and wear caused to clothes by washing. This was our first washer and dryer purchase. We started out at Sears looking at their models, and had heard that...
