Brian, in Cedar

Ah Maytag. With the best reputation money can buy.

Yeah. Tell me about it. The appliance dealer said "These Magic
Chef washers and dryers are Maytags but they don't have the
stainless tubs." I paid my $800 and had them delivered. The
first time I used the dryer, the tub went "boom, boom, boom"
as if it had a flat tire. It turns out it did. That's "normal"
says the repairman. 3 weeks later the motor in the washer
smoked. 3 weeks later he had all 3 parts and climbed on top
of the washer to unplug it, leaving dents in the super thin
sheetmetal top. He denied it but warrantied the top anyway.

I called the dealer and asked to upgrade to the REAL Maytags.
Nogo. I pleaded that I'd pay the upgrade fees, no problem.
Nogo. I called Maytag and they said No, they couldn't make
the dealer take them back and they wouldn't do it themselves.

All I can say about Maytag is NEVER AGAIN for me!

My 2-year old Frigidaire fridge is noisy as hell, too. Maybe
I should have bought a SubZero unit. Or are they the Searz /
Minwhacked / Thompson's / Maytag bunch, too?
