Hope you find the one you want. Did you do any research on all of the maytags that are out there. I like Maytag also and would not like to change unless they became obsolete. I google the product reviews on everything before I buy!
GOOD LUCK!

Good luck finding a nice one.
I know all about how it is to have major appliances bit the dust as my refig is slowly dying. We bought it in 1991, so it's done good with never so much as a hiccup, but now it's fading fast.

These little surprises can knock you off your feet for a while! I hope you find exactly what you want at a good price.

Diana...it's really never a good time for buying appliances is it? I like Maytag also. I have a Whirpool now (I think they're made my Maytag) and I love this set. Both are so energy efficient. Ours are about 3 or 4 years old.

I wanted one of those front loaders, but I've just heard too many negatives especially about the smell around the door seal. I think that by the time the ones I have now go out, the front loaders will be perfected a little more. I do know they are suppose to be better on the clothes, but I still have clothes that are OLD and as long as I follow the washing instructions, they last.

Sorry you have to buy a new dryer. You got a lot years out if it.. I am also a Maytag fan. My last house a Maytag washer and dryer were there when I bought the house. They were 15 years at that time. I lived there for 13 years and 9 years later they are still being used! Fantastic!

Hope you found a great deal.
So... wha'cha get?

I checked with the Consumer's Report and Maytay front loaders are the worst on repairs so now I don't know what to do. I'm glad that I didn't go ahead and order before I did some more checking. I've always been happy with my Maytag but it was a whole lot simplier than the computer brain things they have now. Decisions, decisions!!!!

Diana,
My washer (whirlpool) went out 3 weeks ago. It was the 2nd time. First time got it fixed. 2nd time it was going to cost us the same amount for a new one. So I went out and bought a maytag. Ican't believe the difference. My other washer was only 5 years old. But then I use them everyday too.
We had a dryer once that kept eating heating elements. They weren't that expensive maybe 15 to 20 bucks a pop. But if finally died too.
I've heard alot of stories on the front loads. Some one told me they can mold.
Good luck hope you get one that fits your needs.
