I would say not to worry about it. Speed Queen washers are built like tanks and very rarely does somebody get a lemon. But, as stated above, their warranty work and dealers are top flight and will immediately correct any problem that may arise. Speed Queen: The Modern Day Maytag

That is so neat! Congrats on a great find!

Well, Whirlpool DID hijack Maytag....... I'd give my left *ahem* to be able to waltz into an appliance store and purchase this entire lineup.

Looks like new! Always loved those Maytag JetClean models.

Cheryl, So sorry to hear of your headaches with Sears. They really have become a giant bunch of turds lately, even out here on the other end of Pennsylvania! Personally, I would say to forget about them altogether and find a good, reputable mom n pop family owned appliance dealer. Preferably...

Be sure to watch this thread. I'll post the video directly in a response!

Brian, thanks for all the information and links! Greg, just goes to show that you truly can't beat Maytag: The Dependability People :D Jon, I agree. I haven't seen any difference in lint over my Whirlpool. Daniel, I'd be happy to make a full cycle video sometime. I'll post it when I get...

Who wouldn't love doing their wash in a Frigidaire with Persil? Great video as always!

Brian, Attached below are the photos you asked for. Correct me if I'm wrong, but shouldn't there be a long, perforated cylinder attached to the bottom of the agitator cap that holds up the softener cup?

It is almond, and I only have provisions for an electric dryer. We don't have natural gas in my development, only propane.

All cleaned up! Since today was my day off, I finally decided to take the Maytag apart and clean it the way Brian said to in his above post. It wasn't nearly as bad as I anticipated. The lady clearly took care of her washing machine and didn't use crappy detergent and cold water. However, I...

Hey all, I'm beginning to get the itch to find a dryer that matches or almost matches my 1993 Maytag washing machine. I'm not in any great rush to find one, but any suggestions or leads would be greatly appreciated! I'll post a couple pics of the washer so you can see it. The big scuff mark...

Best performing washer I've used would hands down be a classic belt drive Maytag top loader. Though, our early 2000s direct drive Whirlpool has been an admirable performer with absolutely no problems and service calls. (No problems except how damn easy it is to throw the thing off balance with...

Gorgeous machine! Are you able to make a video of it? Also, love the avocado center dial Maytag pair behind it! Would it be a pain to ask for some photos of those sometime?

The verdict is in....... I LOVE the performance of a classic Maytag! I have it currently set up in the basement kitchen at the sink and I'm one happy camper!

Thanks for all the input, gentlemen! That giant scuff mark on the front came off almost entirely. Brian, I'll be sure to do the basic disassembling that you outlined. It seems ery straightforward. The machine already smells leagues better just by having a full cycle run and leaving the lid up...

Second video, as promised. You'll notice the wet spot in front of the right front corner. This is NOT a leak from the machine, but a casualty from the bucket of brown bottle Lysol and water that I was using to clean the exterior of the machine. You'll also notice the lack of spray rinse. I...

Fortunately, it's mostly just a giant scuff mark and it will come off without too much effort. There's only one dime sized spot that the paint is worn off. Here's the first clip of the maiden wash. If someone could offer some information on how to properly load and get the best results from...

Last week, I posted a link to a Craigslist ad in my area with an early 90's Maytag washing machine and an older Hotpoint dryer. I got in touch with the seller and ended up striking a deal for the Maytag. I couldn't pass it up. It belonged to his girlfriend's aunt who never married, never had...

I bought the washing machine. Will take delivery of it later this week and will make a thread over in Deluxe for it. I'm super excited for the first of 4 must find washing machines!
