It gets better Same problem as listed above, it recurred. The "5 year warranty" that I thought was bumper to bumper is actually limited. The store I bought the machine from wasn't sure the repair would be covered and said it would be 200.00 to walk through the door plus parts if not covered...

I woke up and immediately went down and plugged the washer in... pump immediately turned on. After fiddling with it and plugging it in and unplugging it I finally got the pause cancel button to work and it stopped the pump. I was able to wash two loads, after the two loads it wouldn't agitate or...

Update Washer magically turned on all by itself and pump runs continuously and won’t respond to anything. I am glad I was home but now actually believe it’s junk quality. What if I wasn’t home and it ran all day and possibly caught fire? I’m stuck with it and will have it repaired but will...

One year of ownership. No troubles so far however I am no longer optimistic about the longevity after reading these posts. Darn. I will say its getting noisier already when agitating (clanking when tub and agitator changes directions). I'm really happy with the way it cleans. I guess I fooled...

Couldnt have said it better "At 50, I sort of worry that if I "give up" on trying to stay current with stuff like this I'll become one of those hopeless older people. That said, I haven't ordered one yet..." 52 here. Used to be an electronic junkie always had to have the latest and greatest...

I cant tell you how many times I stood next to my grandma as we took turns cranking that Flint egg beater while I "helped" her prepare whatever food she was making. :)

That's good news. Thank you again. I wish I would have been wiser growing up and realize that one day all I will have are the memories. I find myself desperately trying to surround myself with things that remind me of the past. It doesn't seem like current memories are nearly as dear to me, for...

Update Just a quick update. I have had this washer for approximately 7 months... After initially swapping out the first one that was defective the second one seems just fine. Its quick and cleans very well. I have noticed that soap dosage is critical. It does not handle excess soap in a very...

Nostalgia Hello, Its like stepping back in time to my grandmother's and mother's houses. For me, alot of good memories accompany these pictures that take me back to a certain date and time. Its like being there again with the people that have long since passed. I don't know where you find...

Same problem different solution I am tired of putting mine in the dishwasher and don't like the look of a messy stove and get tired of trying to clean all the grease spots so I went and bought an extra set of grates so I can quit obsessing over keeping mine clean. I'm one of those freaks that...

The agitator fins on the Maytag 575 appear to be bigger than some of the direct drive models I have had in the past. I have no proof though because I have nothing to compare them to. As I mentioned previously I don't have enough history to speculate reliability but I feel like this machine can...

Overall I absolutely loved my wave touch washer and dryer set but the rinsing did not seem adequate.

I have had the Maytag washer for a couple of months now and my clothes are cleaner and smell fresher than with my previous front load washer.. gasp. Reliability is an unknown at this point. Maybe Maytag will continue to add some of the features talked about above such as choosing the water level...

Hi Mamapinky! I see a Bosch Ascenta for under 500 bucks at ABT.com, might not be a bad choice. I have heard the Ascenta line is good for its price point. Its 449.00 in white. I have had a Bosch dishwasher in the past and was pleased with its performance. We have one at work, usually run twice a...

I don't think as a group we need to be continually insulted and subjected to someone that sounds very mad and expresses such a dislike to the posters as a whole. I didn't get to read the last gem as it has been deleted but those posts are changing the whole feel of this forum. In my opinion...
