I purchased the Maytag Dependable Electric Dryer MDE9206 . First of all because I was so pleased with my matching washer. I have found it be a very economical dryer to use. It is well worth the money ! I find that it is very fast at drying my clothes. It...

Pros: None
Cons: Motor failed before 5 years

Our first dryer was a Maytag that lasted 25 years for 7 people. We bought a Maytag again but the motor failed in less than 5 years! I am very upset about this! Obviously, there is a poor design here. I thought I could count on Maytag.

Pros: Motor only good for 3 years
Cons: Engineering problem causes premature motor failure

If your looking to spend a bunch of money on a clothes dryer that will only last 3 years before the motor is toast then Maytag is for you ! Don't count on Maytag to stand behind their product either. Their customer service rep laughed at me on the phone !

Pros: Easy to use.
Cons: Inferior motor, Poorly designed lint exhaust

I bought this dryer 4 years ago, brand new, on the assumption I would rather put quality before whistles and bells. Big mistake!

The motor burned up in 4 years (almost to the day). The rest of the machine is in pristine condition as I am the type of person that performs preventative maintenance 1-2 times per year. Replacement cost of the motor was $150 if I did it myself. This approaches half the cost of a new machine, especially when you add the fact that the motor switch was bad as well (an additional $50).

I also had the same problem as another reviewer with lint getting by lint trap. Tough to clean out because of the design of the molded plastic piece, even when disassembled.

I am amazed that a motor would fail before I even had a chance to replace the drum belt! This machine will be going to the landfill after 4 years use by 2 individuals. Pretty darn sad. I will not buy any more Maytag products.
