My Compact Front Load Maytag Washer

A Great Buy

Rose Richmond
We had the same washer and dryer for years. When we made the decision to buy a new set, we immediately looked at Maytag. Known for dependability and long lasting performance, it seemed to be the perfect choice.

We have been using it for about 2 months now. It works hard and does an excellent job on cleaning. It has electronic controls, holds a lot of clothes if needed or larger items that were previously Washerteria items and it saves energy. We have saved about $40 in water and electric so far.

Just 23-1/2" wide, 24" deep and 33-1/4" high, this Maytag compact front load washer easily fits in smaller areas and takes up less of floor space. While compact , this washer still offers a generous 2.4 cu. ft. of inside washer space that making laundry day a breeze.

Here are the Specs according to Maytag manufacturers description:

DEPTH: 25 1/4 Inches

HEIGHT: 33 1/4 Inches

WIDTH: 23 3/4 Inches

Features

Flexible Installation

High Efficiency

Large Interior Capacity

TurboClean™ Wash System

Commercial-Quality Stainless Steel Wash Basket

Backed by the Maytag® Dependable Performance™ Warranty

Electronic Controls

Time Remaining Indicator

End-of-Cycle Chime

Compact Exterior

Here are the extras that come with this machine according to the Maytag manufacturers description:

Large Door Opening

Detergent, Bleach and Fabric Softener Dispensers

Self-Cleaning Lint Filter System

No Agitator

ENERGY STAR® Qualified

IntelliFill™ Automatic Water Level Sensor

Automatic Temperature Control

1,200 RPM Spin Speed

22 Custom Cycles

Delay Start Option

Five Water Temperature Combinations

This machine is state of the art. It is rated in the top three for energy saving features and for quality. The average cost of this Maytag Compact Front Loading Washer is about $750.00

Well worth the price though. We anticipate this washer will last more than 20 years with the proper care and proper usage. If you divide the cost by the years you anticipate using it, the price is minimal. If you also add the savings from energy costs, you are actually not paying very much for this excellent buy.

I love our new washer. It gets the clothes clean and is quick and efficient.

    We purchased the same Maytag Compact washer and dryer in July 2010 and have been pleased with the performance until two days ago when the dryer stopped heating. Fortunately it is still under warranty but having the dryer break 7 months into owning doesn't inspire much confidence in the product. We will be purchasing the extended warranty.

    I purchased my MA2400AWW in 2006 and it worked fine for about a year, then started having problems with it stopping in the middle of the wash cycle. Had to pay service call to have repairman come a few times when that happened and then the last time it happened, was told need to replace the motor and control board at a cost of $800 (more than I paid for the machine initially). I had had Maytag washer/dryer prior to this machine and it lasted 20 years with no problem, but after this experience will never purchase a Maytag again.
