Muscle up with Maytag

Advantages: Powerful Suction
Disadvantages: A bit on the heavy side

...Maytag U5288 Our very basic Hover model had given up the ghost and retired to that vacuum haven that all old and out of suck vacuum?s go to. It?s poor lung?s were so full of dust and sand that one morning when I plugged her in, she just made a wheezing, whirring, coughing noise and died right there in front of my eyes. Now over the grief, we realised that a replacement was badly in need and off to our local Carrefour store we went to see what we could find. The selection was rather limited with most being the cylinder type. I can tell you I just don?t like these models, not sure why but they give me the feeling that you should be going WALKIES with them and not hovering a home. Anyway I had the choice of 2 uprights, first being another rather basic Hoover model and I couldn?t bring myself to kill another one as I knew it just wasn...

Maytag Stainless Steel dishwasher

Advantages: Quiet, large inside, easy to clean
Disadvantages: Intermittant fault that doesn't seem to be fixable, expensive

...I have had the Maytag for nearly two years now. I bought it to match with new appliances in my refitted kitchen. The machine holds a lot, more than our previous model. It was so quiet that when we first used it we didn't think it was working! It is easy to use, with lots of programmes. It has a low salt and low rinse aid indicator. It has an economy programme as well as all the usual programmes that you would expect for a top of the range dishwasher. About a year ago it suddenly started tripping the electric off and we needed to get an engineer. I bought the machine on line and I looked up Maytag and phoned them, they then arranged for a firm of engineers to send someone round. The engineer arrived, tried the dishwasher but it was fine, so said he couldn't do anything but let Maytag know if it happened again. He noticed...

Saga of a Modern Luddite - Conversion Imminent

Advantages: Efficient, gentle on clothes, lots of cycle options, attractive
Disadvantages: Expensive

...unless I had strong feelings to the contrary, he intended to purchase a new Maytag Neptune washer AND dryer within the half hour. Well, quite naturally, I was taken aback. As the woman of the house, I felt that I should have at least some say in this process. "Hold on," I replied. "At least give me a chance to have a look!" That meant waiting until the weekend, of course. Meanwhile, I was strongly lobbied on behalf of the Maytag Neptune: ~ It was very efficient, he said. It would save on water and electricity. That sounded good to me. No issue there. . . . ~ He liked the front-loading approach. I wasn't so sure: I liked my old top loader. I preferred looking and reaching down into the tub in lieu of stooping in front of my appliance. ~ He liked the stainless steel tub. Frankly, I didn't care whether or not it had...

Review of Maytag Neptune

From Death to New life.

Advantages: Simple
Disadvantages: Expensive

..., a large capacity, big enough to take a king size doona, one that is easy on the electricity and water, and I might consider a front loader. Something like a washer in a laundromat. Any Hoover? No! His recommendation was either the Maytag and another brand because he didn't see them often getting repaired. And he would consider one of those when his Hoover died. He forewarned me though, the Maytag would be more expensive than the other brand. Also I would have to look around as not many shops sold the bigger MAYTAG Models.There is a smaller MAYTAG very similar to most other machines you see in salesrooms. They are painted metal not baked enamel. Well......! I was on a mission. I set off on the shopping expedition having rung around beforehand, to see who stocked the brand names I wanted to look at. I entered a well known...

Review of Maytag Neptune

Silent state of the art and great looker

Advantages: Looks cool, works great, cleans brilliantly
Disadvantages: Cost, but you get what you pay for.

...I have had this machine now for 3 months now and can honestly say, no regrets. The machine is beautiful, with the state of the art digital selection system that is not only very easy to use but allows for great flexibility. The 2000 rpm really dries clothes that shits dry off the rack in my London flat within half hour. On average, I only use 1600 to 1800 rmp for drying. Also, the delay wash feature - you actually select the time for the machine to start and it shows when the washing cycle will end. So you can time it to come on so that your clothes will be washed by the time you get up. Wasing options, well there can sometimes be too many of these - and the Maytag is no different. I like the hand wash cycle - its just so gentle and you can control the temperatures too. Best of all, its SILENT - even at 2000 rpm spin dry...

Completing Our Dynamic Laundry Duo

Advantages: Efficient, attractive, quiet
Disadvantages: Pricey

...Given that the New Year for 2003 began with the death of an old appliance--our washer--Himself and I decided that the time was right for a first during our 34 years of marriage: We would purchase a new washer AND a new dryer to meet our laundry needs. We would purchase them at the same time, and they would MATCH in all reasonable respects. It was, we agreed, a great luxury. But it was a luxury we had earned and could finally afford. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Making the Choice ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The choice of a dryer, of course, was determined in large part by the choice of a washer. Himself, a practiced navigator of the World Wide Web, had done the research--with the end result being the purchase of a Maytag Neptune Washer, model MAH5500B. (See my review of this appliance at http://www.ciao.co.uk/Maytag...

Review of Maytag MSE 661 FARS

Careful this doesn't fall on you!

Advantages: Big, good performance, good features.
Disadvantages: Huge, loud, expensive

...easy to unscrew, it sometimes does not work properly. The chisseled glass tray is prone to shattering too -so be careful!. It splinters into too many bits. The other problem is with its size -yes, capacity is good, but you have to find a place to fit this thing in and have the strength to set it up. Maytag engineers however are helpful and friendly although the sales and support department drag their heels all too often. A final problem is that it is loud -and if the fan on the compressor goes out of alignment slightly it will become irritating. Also, if you put it right next to a wall, the sound will be perfectly conducted throughout the whole building. Overall, its a cool fridge -but only if you can afford it and have room....
