WOW ! I never saw a "progammed cycle" Whirlpool before. I would assume that the timer stops in the correct place according to the button that you press. But what is the "MANUAL" part of the timer for ? It always seemed to me that some of Whirlpool 1960's styling was a little backwards. This...

Gar <br I do believe the new Maytags have the exact same agitation as the DD Whirlpool/Kenmores. The part # for the Maytag transmission is one digit different (P/N 3360630 for Maytag & P/N 3360629 for Whirlpool) but if you order one it subs back to the Whirlpool # <br As far as the difference...

Stopped to check out some of the new "Maytag" washers and dryers while in Home Depot the other day <br So strange to see a SS basket in a direct drive. Even more strange to see a plastic basket in a DD Amana <br But I had to laugh- they still had the old parts comparison board under the lid...

The next model up has a white porcelain basket. And the two top models have S.S. I guess they left both knobs on the left side because the next models start adding knobs to the right side. I know for sure the MTW5700 has an extra rinse knob on the right side. As far as temp selections go- more...

As I mentioned in another thread my first impression was that the panel was a little too plain. But remember, the top two models (MTW5800 & MTW5900) are said to have "premium" knob and consoles. It specifically states "premium knob" not "premium knobs". Are buttons too much to hope for ? Ed

I saw a MTW5700 today at a local dealer. It had a center timer dail. White porcelain basket. And a porcelain top and lid. The exact same top and lid as the upper model Kenmores (Elites). While the control panel seemed very well built(not tinny like most) it was very bland. All flat with basic...

Whirlpool It is a Whirlpool. They used this style panel on some of their "budget" models before the Estate name was used. Maybe even some Estate models had this style. Ed

From a servicers point of view the more DD machines out there the better. Customers are always happy with them. They are very reliable. I agree they are not of the "old" Maytag standard but they sure are a lot better than some of the Maytag products lately. And when they do need a repair it's...

1965? Pretty sure it's from 1965. I had one (in white) once but it needed so much work I lost interest and ended up junking it. Not the smartest decision I ever made. I regret it now. Anyway, I believe RickR has a perfectly restored version that is one model down from the LK. Maybe he could...

Nothing really new about these dryers. They are just a stacked version of the Dependable Care residential dryer. Internally they are identical part for part. Not sure how the size (6.0 vs. 6.5) is rated different. The Part # for the drum is the same for the commercial stack as that of a common...

I think most of the newer Neptune horror stories involve the newest Samsung made machines. I can only comment on what I have experienced personally. I sold a lot of Neptunes in my stores from the day they were introduced and the only problem that I have ever run into on the last generation is...

definatly not F&P I looked up the parts break-down on this new model. GE calls it the Genesis series. The inside design is VERY similar to the previous models. In fact many parts are the same. The transmission is replaced by a long shaft with a much larger pulley on the bottom than the...

1994 model ? The first Neptune was introduced in July 1997. And the first series was by far the worst. These were MAH3000 models. The second models came out somwhere around March 1999. Very minor changes but did have slightly fewer problems. These were MAH4000 models. Then the final models...

window. . . Maytag did offer a window door in the late 80's or very early 90's. It was a market test sold here in Pittsburgh available at a place called The Appliance Store. It was a $10 upgrade but not enough sold so it was very quickly cancelled. Ed

Super32 has the story of the SAV's exactly correct. I remember well when I was told that the main line would be mostly SAV machines. The Maytag rep assured me not to worry because the tub seal was "improved" with the addition of the dual-drive transmission. So early on I sold quite a few of...

Yes, 20 loads a week. Four kids and a job that makes a dirty uniform every day. Please everyone understand that I'm NOT saying that my front loader is superior in any way. But it does save a lot of water and the clothes are very well washed and rinsed. My water and sewer bills were close to...

I guess it depends on how much laundry you do . . . My family does close to 20 large loads every week so the savings does add up. I switched from a Maytag Atlantis to a Frigidaire 3.5 cu.ft. front load 6 months ago. As close as I can estimate it saves about $25 per month. I do track my...

I have had two different sensor-dry dryers. A Maytag from 1999 and a new Kenmore Elite. In both machines I get wet clothes unless I set it to the maximum (more dry) setting. I got better results from my first dryer. A 1984 Maytag auto-dry machine. Ed

I would have to agree with DADoES. If it is true that F&P makes the motor there should be very few (if any) problems. Ed

This machine was pretty common here in PA. I remember people refering to them as "Double- Dexters" Ed
