I wish Maytag could have done this with all their washers. Dependable Cares underneath, various names like Magic chef, Atlantis, Performa, Amana, ect on the front.
@Chetlaham later maytag perfoma washers have moved from porcelain wash basket to plastic wash basket i will never understand why they did that switch call it strange but my mom and i had to go with vintage maytag this would be the set to go with dependable care easy to use set wash rinse temp needed water level and voila just set washer to needed wash time and let washer do its work no sensors no atc taking over
Even though these were the best top load may tag dependable care machines they built they were still inferior to virtually every other top load washer sold in the US at the time only the WCI Frigidaire stuff was as poor and overall performance, but even they had neutral drain and no nasty off balance, which to make the machine non-automatic.
Maytag pursuit using the Norge tag design because it performed much better than their dependable care design and consumers liked it much better, they even said in the advertising literature for the Norge tag machines that your clothing would come out cleaner and brighter because of the better draining and rinsing system.
