Maytag Refrigerator
-
 
Model: MTB2656AEA |
| Just a
warning we have Maytag Neptune washer/dryer and
Refrigerator. Have had problems with washer that
Maytag didn't want to hear about. Needed to
replace circuit board. Now the compressor is
wearing on refigerator. Maytag website can't
find model number in it's database. Dealer and
repair man won't even consider repair or
replacement of compressor. Only advise to buy
new. Told $800 or more to replace/repair
compressor. I believe we had a 10 year warranty
on refigerator but dealer told me he couldn't
even find my purchase invoice on delivery slip.
I have the purchase invoice but am lacking proof
of warranty. Have found nothing but problems
when dealing with Maytag. Won't purchase Maytag
product ever again. |

Maytag Refrigerator JUNK
-
Model: MSD2356AEW |
| I purchased
this refrigerator in November 99. It was
repaired three time for (defrost module, ice
making system, dispenser). The Maytag repairman
was always at my house. Now the compressor is
dead and this fridge is only eight years old. I
would never buy a Maytag product again. |

Why Me?
-
Model:
LRTC 19A Fridge |
| I was
fortunate enough to have my Maytag fridge quite
working on a Friday night about 10:00. We
discovered it Sat. Morning. Anybody know why you
have to listen to ten minutes of blah, blah on
the Maytag toll free service number before they
tell you they are closed then proceed to
abruptly hang up on you? Hey Maytag. Bold
Idea....Just start with your hours. Oh, and by
the way..... I am just going to buy another
brand after reading some of the stellar reviews
of your service & products which I have read on
this web page.... Thanks for the heads up my
partners of Maytag Troubles...... |

Maytag Warranty Service
-
Model: MFI256AES |
| I purchased
this Maytag fridge from Home Depot 13 months
ago. A week ago, the front panel started
flashing and the ice dispenser door started
flapping open and shut. Called Maytag and they
said it was a known issue with a known solution,
that there was a recall and they would cover it.
They scheduled A&E Service (Sears, owned by
Maytag I'm told), to come out and service. 10
days would be the earliest appt. I took the appt
then a few days before they were to arrive, I
called to confirm. I found out that they were
going to charge me so I battled Maytag service
to fix that. Then they said that they would not
come with parts and that the first visit was
just to diagnose. I explained that this was a
known issue with a known solution with very
unique symptoms so why couldn't they send parts?
They had no answer and when politely pressed,
they got nasty and finally hung up on me. So,
I'm going to have to wait 10 days to have a tech
come out and tell us what we already know is the
problem so that then he can order the parts that
I'm told will take another 10 days and then when
the parts arrive at my house they will schedule
a repair call that could take up to 10 days from
when the parts arrive. That's 30 days without a
working fridge for a problem that they know how
to fix. Basically, what I am saying is that
Maytag/Kenmore/Whirlpool/Amana warranties are
not worth anything. You may as well factor into
your purchase decision the fact that with these
brands, you'll need to pay for repairs even if
they are supposed to be covered by Warranty. I
WILL NEVER purchase these brands again. |

Maytag Refrigerator, Dish Washer, Wall Over
-
Model: |
| I purchased
four brand new maytag appliances. They were all
installed 1-1/2 years ago in my brand new
kitchen. Since then, the fan in the convection
oven stopped working. It took the repairman two
visits and 1-1/2 months to get it right. My
dishwasher has been broken for one month. I am
still waiting on that maytag repairman. Today my
refrigerator stopped working. You know that
maytag repairman you see on tv just twiddling
his thumbs?!?~~it's because he doesn't bother
showing up!!! I will never purchase another
maytag appliance in my lifetime. |

Maytag Products JUNK
-
Model:
MSD2356AEW |
| A few years
ago I purchased a maytag refrigerator and
"Neptune" stack washer & dryer. We had "Priority
One" service on them also. Months after
purchase, problems started. The refrig. would
either give you ice cubes or crushed but not
both. That never got fixed. Then, the freezer
ices over about 2 times a year, stills does to
date. I have to throw away food, empty the
freezer, thaw the ice, dry it down & start
again. The "Neptune" is no less a piece of JUNK!
The washer seal had to be replaced, the circuit
board replaced and just eratic problems. The
"lonely maytag repairman" doesn't exist any
longer. I'm sure he's the busy stinkin'
repairman in town. The days of Maytag's
reputation is only alive in a history lesson! I
realize all models may break down, so don't buy
maytag, spend less money and keep the same if
not Better odds on repairs! I've e-mailed maytag,
but they care-less. Another reason to AVOID
MAYTAG!BEWARE! |

What happened to dependability?
-
Model: MFF2557HEW |
We had an
Amana side-by-side fridge/freezer that was still
working after 22 years, but had past its prime
in the looks and seal department. we purchased a
new french door fridge/freezer. 2 years later
the fridge stopped working. Sure enough, our
appliance repairman told us that they had
changed to a different motor, and it was very
unreliable. Apparently this was a problem our
repairman diagnosed over the phone-before he
ever came out and tore it apart. It went out on
a Friday, and on Wednesday he was still waiting
for the part.
I'll never buy another Maytag. Ever. |

Maytag
Side by Side Refrigerator with Icemaker
-
Model:
MSD2456GEW |
I bought it
because it was the only side by side that was
big enough to hold large items in both the
refrigerator and freezer section. So many of the
side by sides just were too tiny. This freezer
has a compartment in one of the baskets to hold
a frozen pizza, which I did not find in other
models.
I also liked the versatility of the shelving. It
has spill retainer shelves with a recessed edge
to contain spills. It also has an “elevator
shelf” which can be easily raised or lowered
with a crank handle. I cannot tell you how many
times I have used this feature to accommodate a
large item. It also has pull out shelves that
make accessibility very easy.
We did have a little trouble with our milk not
being cold enough, even at the highest setting.
We asked a repairman and he told us about a plug
on the inside left of the fridge meat and cheese
tray. It is a little rubber stopper that
accesses the freezer. He told us to remove the
whole plug, but we found that made our lettuce
freeze. We tried cutting the plug in half and
that seemed to work perfectly. Our milk is cold
and our lettuce does not freeze.
One thing I don’t like about this appliance is
ease of cleaning. While I can remove most of the
shelving to clean them, the elevator shelf is
difficult to remove and I find myself leaving it
in place and trying to clean around it.
I love the ice maker! It gives us both crushed
and cubed ice and we use it daily.
The refrigerator door has wide, adjustable
shelving that is easy to clean and can hold a
lot. |

Maytag
French Door Refrigerator, Buyer Beware
-
Model: MFF2557HEB |
| I purchased
this refrigerator after much research and based
on the so called Maytag dependability. However,
one year after having the refrigerator it broke
down. After 4 days of living out of coolers a
repairman finally came and stated the fan motor
and failed. Apparently, Maytag decided to go
with a different fan motor than what they have
used in years gone by. The new motor is cheaper
and very low quality. Maytag would cover none of
the repairs or labor or loss of food because it
is their policy not to cover extended loss. The
warranty is only good for a year so if you
purchase a Maytag appliance be sure to purchase
an extended warranty. I emailed Maytag
repeatedly but they would do nothing except
quote their policies. It is very sad that after
1 year an appliance would breakdown and the
company take no responsibility for it. So much
for Maytag dependability! |

Refrigerator

Model:
MTF1955GRQ |
| I purhcased
this Regrigerator from Sears and have had
nothing but problems with the poor quality of
the Evaporator Fan. They last about 9 to 12
months, and run about $70 to repair if you do it
yourself. MayTag doesn't stand behind the
product after the year warrant and does not
warrant their replacement parts. $1000 for a
Refrigerator and countless hours of
repairs...$500 in Evaporator Fans and it is out
again. We purhcased three refrigerators and a
Washer and Dryer for our two homes...All have
needed repair and only the Washer was fixed long
term after the first time...JUNK !!!! |

Maytag
Compressor Warranty
-
Model: 38822 |
| Buyer
beware ! Look before you leap ! If you will
notice a Maytag refrigerator compressor warranty
is no longer (5) years but (1) year. Does this
tell you something ? We almost purchased
Maytag's top model but have decided not to
purchase any Maytag because of the decision to
shorten the warranty. It's very Nice looking &
plenty of great features but be prepared to
shell out $279.00 to $399.00 for a 3-5 year
extended warranty. |

Maytag Warranty
-
Model: ---- |
| Just so
everyone is clear on the manufacturers warranty.
All American manufacturers dropped the five year
limited warranty and only have one year product
warranty. Any consolation I work retail , and
all products seem to fail more often than their
predecessors do. I have Maytag, Whirlpool and
Frigidaire and have all worked on several times
just outside the one year manufacturers
warranty. Luckily my service plan covered all
costs associated with the product failures. |
