An Amazing Dishwasher!
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After returning lemon GE DW we went with this Maytag. My dh & I both had the $1200 Bosch when we combined our households. The Bosch racks are not user friendly & we both had repairs and poor washing experience. My Fisher Pykel was worse. I wasn't thrilled about having a "low end" Maytag in my kitchen. Boy was I wrong! This is a work horse with a third rack (see picture.) We are both cooks & use tons of greasy dishes & silverware daily. We've never used the heavy duty cycle; haven't needed to. Everything is sparkling. It's super quiet & the third rack allows so much capacity. Mid-range cost with top tier (lol, 3 tiers) performance! Six months & not one complaint. Love this dishwasher!

Support Maytag!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.our home originally had a 20 yr old maytag dishwasher in it when we moved in almost 4 yrs ago..fast forward a yr or so later we decided to purchase a Samsung 5650 disher which was discontinued after we purchased it and was a nightmare for entire time we owned it of almost 2 yrs..finally was granted a replacent and was in search of new one.. After doing some homework and looking at dishwashers at local retailer near us my daughter had pointed out a kitchen aide model that looked really good..unpon doing comparisons and who made what..decided on this dishwasher because of it functions and cleaning capability...it happened to be same model as kitchen aide priced $250 more and made at same place in Ohio as kitchen aide n whirlpool just with the lower price tag n maytagvname to it.. THIS DISHWASHER IS SUPER QUITE! Cleans well n efficiently n has a ton of space to cut down on amount of times you have to run ur machine each week..Dishes n silverware come out sparkling clean no residue left behind..hubby n i are super happy with replacement purchase n hubby said i did my homework well.. Whirlpool makes Maytag n Kitchen Aide as well their own brand of whirlpool dishwashers and are all rated amongst top 10 of consumers picks for dishwashers on youtube..remember to support the men n women who build these appliances for us proudly here in the USA.. Very Very pleased with purchase!!!

Excellent dishwasher!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We purchased this dishwasher to replace our current one after the pump motor failed, and I now see the value in a non-plastic tub and third rack. Normally I am pretty skeptical of a lot of features in modern appliances because they seem either gimmicky, designed to break or need service. In the case of this Maytag that doesn't appear to be the case with all of its features being both useful and functional. For example the third rack is honestly a game changer, being able to load flatware, and even things like tongs and small bowls saves so much space for other dishes in the second rank and in the silverware basket. Which helps avoid the issues caused by longer items being the basket, which can block the spray arms from spinning. Overall the dishwasher cleans very well, the brief selection of cycles is more than enough - and I typically only run quick cycles anyway. Most glassware is dry even after an hour wash, with only plastics remaining damp, which is more of an issue with the material not the dishwasher. Installation was mostly painless too, my only complaint being that the water inlet is made of plastic and most hook ups use metal so you can run the risk of easily misthreading onto the plastic and damaging the threads. I highly recommend this if you are in the market for a new dishwasher!

This is the one for us!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was put off by Bosch’s racks lack of flexibility for the dishes we use. And then I saw this Maytag. Wow. Three racks, lots of options, and the third rack is deeper than others! It is so quiet that I barely know it’s running. Love the front light indicating it is running or it’s done. We are really pleased with this dishwasher. The Maytag I had was at least 25 years old and I was happy to replace it with a Maytag. Actually, this is the third Maytag I’ve purchased in my life, the first one in 1981.

Love this dishwasher!
||Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Love this dishwasher! Have had it for 9 months now with no issues. We originally planned to get a Bosch and it was slightly too big for our opening so pivoted and got this one. Extremely happy with the flexibility of the racks and quantity of dishes I can fit in it! Love the mug wash which I use for any small cups/bowls. Top rack can move up or down depending on size of items. Very quiet! Family members who don't know it's running have opened it while its running because they didn't hear it! Totally happy with this purchase!

Great dishwasher!
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very well built, great appearance, and extremely quiet! We were amazed at how great the drying cycle works compared to our old dishwasher. We also like that the tub is stainless steel and that this unit has a third rack.

Great purchase!!!
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dishwasher is QUIET! I used to have a Bosch 300 in my other house and I can say this Maytag is much better. The Bosch was louder and the glasses didn’t fit well on the 2nd rack. When I moved, the existing dishwasher has a plastic tub so I immediately replaced it with this one. The middle rack on the Maytag tilts the glasses perfectly. And as I mentioned it’s quiet and beautiful. I love that the seemless look without buttons on the front and it does keep fingerprints off!

Fabulous!!!! Pictures show dirty dishes but...
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fabulous. I was worried it might get stinky if I only run it when full; living alone that can be up to 9 days between washing. No smells ever! I never believed dishes could sparkle, no joke. My big Fiestaware fits pretty well and negotiating the two drawers with some tweaking we are now in business. Flatware holder is great. 2nd drawer for glassware is fine, although I'd like to "put one more in" alas, I'm settled with it. The 3rd rack is a dream. Fill it with mugs down the middle and all kinds of weird items and 100% happy. Almost silent, in my little 900 SF house. So glad i got it worth every penny.

Love this dishwasher!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very quiet and does an excellent job cleaning and drying. Drying is better on the long heated dry cycle than on the short heated dry cycle. Racks glide very easily and stop before sliding all the way out unlike my last d/w! Love the 3rd rack! Great for cereal bowls, coffee mugs & utensils. Last dishwasher was a 2 rack and I didn’t think I wanted a 3rd rack but now I’m so glad I have it. I only need to run this twice/week, instead of 3x/week because of the 3rd rack, so I’m saving even more money now. This is the only brand that has a food disposer built in! Sorry, Bosch! Also, it’s made in the great USA! Looks beautiful, too! Very easy to operate. I saved my old silverware baskets from my previous d/w bc I didn’t like the one long basket that this one has. My old baskets are 2 separate baskets so easier to put on a counter and unload bc they take up less space…Installation was super smooth! They gave me a time frame the day before and texted a more narrow time frame later that day (the day before), too and even called me that morning 1-1.5 hours ahead. Used my total tech membership to get free install ($150 value), free 2 year warranty & free haul away & delivery ($40 value). They even price matched a nearby competitor! Used Best Buy certificates that I earn from using my Best Buy credit card. The best part was the super fast install date. Bought on a friday night and it was installed on Monday! All the other stores were running 1-3 weeks on install & I couldn’t wait that long bc my previous 10 year old d/w started leaking! Oh this also has leak detect, so the machine will stop running immediately if a leak is detected!

One TINY complaint - otherwise, it's perfect!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I may be judging this one a bit harshly because I lost a few features when I upgraded to this new Maytag. I had a prior Maytag dishwasher for just a month or two shy of 24 years. I loved it. It cleaned like a dream, but because of poor choices in the tine material, they began to rust off, and it finally needed its very first repair, only to find that the parts are no longer available. After 24 years, surely there would be amazing dishwashers available and I'd be thrilled to have a new one. Well, I am ALMOST thrilled. The third rack is great. The material is no longer coated metal tines in the racks, so no worry about a tiny chip causing rust and failure of the tines over time. It's SO QUIET. I love the smooth front (controls are on top on this one) and I love that it tells me exactly how long the cycle I chose will run (short cycle is under 1 hour 15 minutes). When it's running, you rarely hear anything at all from the next room. Dishes are coming out just as clean as my old machine (which was perfect, despite its age), and I'm overjoyed about that because I have friends who actually rinse off/wash their dishes before putting them in the machine because their machines can't handle food particles. Not this machine! Get the big stuff off and toss your plates/lasagna pan right in there, and if you've loaded it correctly (dirty side getting hit by water from the spray jets) you will have spotless dishes with no handwashing necessary. Third rack is great for throwing those tiny little things that I used to put in my old machine's silverware holder (can tops for dog food, lids from my husband's travel coffee mugs, etc.). Now for the part that drives me insane. My old machine had an angled second rack (no third rack back then!), so I could easily put very large items in the bottom rack, like my cookie sheets. You would place them on the left hand side bottom rack, and still have plenty of room on the top rack to hold bowls, glasses, etc. On this machine, I had to adjust my 2nd rack so far up that the 3rd rack made it impossible to put tall glasses in the 2nd rack and still wash my cookie sheets on the bottom rack. Why, Maytag? You were SO CLOSE to absolute perfection!! I can't be the only one with very large items that need to go in the dishwasher occasionally. Overall, this thing is a 4.9 stars, so I'm giving it 5. If you frequently throw large items in your machine like I do, go check out the machine in person to make sure you have enough room. So far it's only been the big cookie sheet that gave me a fit. Absolutely everything else about this machine is amazing, and I would highly recommend it!

A bit tougher than others to install, but worth it
||Posted . Owned for 3 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Made in the USA and it shows !! FAR better than last couple import models we've had. Noise level is excellent. We use the Auto cycle and it really does an excellent job at cleaning with little-to-no hand rinsing. The 3rd rack is great to have, and even accepts mugs/cups with dedicated angled jets to clean them. Installation is a little more difficult compared to LG, but it's a far superior machine. Also, this didn't include a drain hose, whereas others not only include them, but they are already hooked up and ready to connect to plumbing. My fault for not checking, but had to make a trip back to the store for the drain hose. As well, other units I've owned had tracks built into the bottom of the frame to allow easy channeling of hoses and power line. Not that big of a deal, but it's a little more precarious making sure all of the lines are safe as you slide the washer into place. Highly recommend this high-quality dishwasher. We will very likely stick with Maytag as other appliances come up for replacement.

Quiet and Clean
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Installed this myself 3 weeks ago to replace an older plastic-lined machine. Installation went pretty well, with the exception that I under estimated the depth of the new one. No worries, as it fits acceptably. In hindsight, I might have picked one with the controls on the front since they are completely hidden when the door is closed, leaving you with no idea how much time is left on the cycle. So far this dishwasher has performed very well. The dishes come out clean and it is almost completely silent unless the dishes themselves are clanging together.
