YAY! My 3rd Maytag (well, the Samtag is also a Maytag, right?)
Last Night I was having dinner with my husband and then Kevin started texting me frenetically on Whatsapp "Check your facebook NOW!"
It took no longer than a couple of seconds until I almost head a heart attack anda stroke at the same time.
Maytag Neptune stacked, gas, $35.
I was like "Kevin, that's something we don't even think twice. Of course yes, yes, yes!"
He contacted the seller for me and the lady was like "Ok, but you must pick it up like IMMEDIATELY because I'm moving.
Ok, that was kinda weird but anyway.... Kevin was already in bed, he dressed up and went there in the middle of the night to pick up Mrs.'Tag.
1 hour later, Mrs. Tag is unloaded in front of my Six Flags (Kevin has the Washers' Disneyland and as my collection is way smaller and less rare than his, i named it Six Flags).
Still outside, super late night and we didnd't want to make noises, we just plugged it and tested the spin...
Lucky me! Max spin speed and silently purring like a kitten.
I don't need to say I woke up super early, desperate to organize Six Flags to make another machine fit in there (the very last one because now I literally don't have a single inch left)
Well... Everything done, Mrs tag properly installed (I forgot to mentioned it looks immaculate outside) it's time to finally try it.
First load, empty.
Pre wash drained like somebody took a whole box of TurboLax. Nasty, i mean REALLY nasty. I mean, the dirtiest washer I've ever seen. I mean, it was like somebody ate a party size bag of Doritos, didn't chew completely and then threw up.
Not to mention that AWFUL "Ensueño" fabric softener smell... OMG. How can somebody dare to use that thing? It should be called "Nightmare", not "dream" in Spanish.
Main wash filled... I noticed the water level is kinda lower during the main part of the wash and then (probably near 5 minutes before drain it raises the water level, right?
Wel... Nope... It raised the water level, then the fill valve noise changed, it sounded like it was flushing the bleach dispenser. As I have no experience with Maytags, for a second I thought it was normal until the washer started draining (and still flushing). OM, "MAYBE" something is wrong, but let's see what happens.
It spun... WOW, it has a spray rinse YAY. (Kinda strange, a spray rinse that starts in the middle of the wash and never stops...... anyway)
First rinse.
It filled, but then i realized the solenoid didn't stop flushing (probably the bleach dispenser?) Ok, it's time to do something more serious... I closed the tap. and I could hear the solenoid closing.
Ok, rinses went fine. (except for the nasty vomit every time it drained.)
Kevin arrived for dinner YAY. I started Mrs.'Tag again and went upstairs to eat. this time with a generous dose of Cascade Fryer Boil out and freaking hot water (Water heater set to maximum)
We're eating and then I heard a water noise, went back to Six Flags and found Mrs. 'Tag almost drowning. Laundry room flooded. I just ran, stopped the washer and closed the tap. then I went upstairs to give the news to everybody.
I forgot the door unlocks after 2 minutes. and the door was holding a tub literally full of water. ooops....
Ok guys, life vests required beyond this point.
Ok, I have a Neptune
The washer is ok, except for the fill valve that is obviously defective. (everything else works great)
Time to try the dryer!
When I tried it this afternoon, it was doing great. silent and hot as hell.
At night... NOTHING!
I can see the ignitor glowing, but no flame at all.
All that said, It's time for me to ask Martin (Yogitunes) if I can be accepted to the Ultra Premium and secret Maytag Neptune VIP Club (AFAIK it's easier to become a Freemason than being accepted to the Neptune club).
And being accepted or not, can ANYBODY, please give me some help? Don't forget the very first time I put my hands on a gas dryer was 3 years ago here in the USA. Until then, I had only electric ones.
