Maytag MAH2400A Front Load Washer

Pros: Compact size, saves water and energy, looks good
Cons: Wash cycle takes a long time

Due to limited space in my home for a washer and dryer, I was on the market for a compact size and stackable washer/dryer combo. The Maytag MAH2400A seemed to be the perfect sized front loading washer for me measuring 23 1/2" wide, 24" deep and 33 1/4" ...

Pros: gets clothes super clean; uses less electricity, water, and soap; compact footprint with great capacity
Cons: none serious - spin is a bit loud and cycle time is a bit long

We got this washer for our apartment, to replace a compact top-loader by Kenmore. I was wary of getting a front-loader because I had never had one before. It was a wonderful decision. We have had it for three months and have used it at least 100 ...

Pros: Fantastic cleaning machine, Quiet and stays in one place.And has Quick cycle.
Cons: None what so ever!!!!!!!!!!!.

Having owned what i thought was the top front loader when they first appeared on the market was the new Frigidaire. It was an amazing machine, capacity wise and energy wise was truly amazing. But since being diagnosed with rheuimotoid arth. It ...

Pros: QUIET, delayed start, good looking, stainless steel drum, compact, energy efficient
Cons: doesn't seem to get clothes clean!

The jury's still out on this one!! I bought this washer and matching stackable dryer just a short time ago and have only done 5-6 loads so far. I needed something to fit into a 24" space in my small kitchen...and this unit is certainly way better looking ...

Pros: Overall quality, compact size, fine cleaning performance
Cons: Sensitivity to over sudsing when washing towels.

I had to purchase a compact washer due to space problems in my laundry room which is really just a pass-through to the garage. I wanted to stack the washer and dryer to allow for a shelving unit next to it for storage. This unit with it's companion dryer ...

Pros: This particular model looks nice, doesn't take up too much room, and has several options.
Cons: poor customer service, the washing machine has a design flaw: no filter on water pump

Our Maytag / Sears experience has been a night mare. If you own a Maytag product purchased at Sears, your warranty will *only* be covered by Sears. Sears has clearly told me "if you have your machine repaired by *anyone* other than a Sears technician ...

Pros: NONE! NONE! NONE!
Cons: $700 washer and I still do my laundry out on town!

If I don't keep an eye on it...it'll walk right out of the laundry room! Have you seen those bumper stickers..."I heart jet noise"...you better if you get this machine. Next...if you are waiting for you laundry to get done...you'd better have a few hours ...

Pros: Very efficient, compact size, yet holds a lot of clothes and gets them clean.
Cons: Dryer door reverses, but washer door doesn't. Sometimes makes some funky noises.

I purchased this pair for space reasons also, and my initial concern was that I'd have to use smaller loads. Much to my surprise, I could fit almost as much in it as my previous large washer. In fact, with both the washer and dryer, if I just throw in ...

Pros: size and I was happy with how it performed
Cons: sucks up change and Maytag service

Our machine, purchased from the Home Depot, went into service early Feb of 2005. In Jan or 2006 the machine would not drain so we called Maytag service. Unfortunately since we had purchased the machine in Dec of 2004 we had to pay for the visit. Nothing ...

Pros: Small & light-easy to return to the store.
Cons: Complete waste of time/ money. Useless!

I can only hope that my story is not run of the mill. Perhaps it was damaged in route some how, or the QC dept was on vacation when they built mine. I got it because they looked high tech and I liked the size and the fact I could stack the dryer for even ...

Pros: Only one day old so who knows down the road.
Cons: None other than the above.

This is just added info re Maytag/Whirlpool/Sears BAD repair/Warranty service.Nine-ish year old Maytag washing machine on the fritz 8/3/09. Called Maytag warranty number to ask who they recommended. Least expensive and best service would be provided ...

Pros: Have not found any yet, is compact but moves alot
Cons: Breaks often, does not clean clothes, they smell funny -machine is a lemon

Nothing but problems with this washer. Do not buy, you can have mine - several problems with both this washer and matching dryer.Has broken down several times, each time repair shop has for 3 weeks, several items go at once, board has gone, pump has ...

Pros: Energy efficient.
Superior cleaning.
Compact footprint.
Quiet operation.
Cons: Absolutely None!

This is my first review on epinions. I feel so strongly that this washer (and dryer) are great machines, that I wanted to address some negative remarks. And also let you know my experience over the past 18 months.First off, I was very hesitant to ...

Pros: Looks great!
Cons: Lasted Less then 5 years!

Less then 5 years after purchasing this washer, the motor has gone bad.  My previous washer (as Kenmore) lasted 18 years. 

That pretty much sums it up.  I don't care that I have a warranty that covers replacement of the motor.  I would have prefered to have had a washer not go bad in less then 5 years. 

Do yourself a favor, buy another model from another company... just recently, Maytag recalled a few different models of refridgerators because of electrical issues causing fire.  Yeah, that shocked me.  Uh-huh.

Pros: Cleans well when it works.
Cons: Two expensive repairs in eleven months.

This machine was in place when I bought my condo. I have used it nearly daily for my family of four. It worked well, when it worked. The hot water setting got my son's white school shirts very white.

However, in the eleven months since I bought our home, the machine has broken down twice. The second time it gave an 3E error. The repair man said that that the diagnostics, parts and repair would cost above $300. That combined with the cost of the first repair almost equals the cost of the machine. I have decided to skip repairing it and replace it with a more reliable machine.

Not only would I not buy this machine again, I would not buy this brand again. Also, I think I will purchase an extended warranty in the future for the major appliances that are not covered in the homeowner's warranty.
