Washer Highlights »



Premium Features: 4 out of 7


Clean washer with Affresh
Many low water washers have areas where the water does not reach but with this deep fill facility the water reaches every part of your wash.

16 hour Fresh Hold™ with Dynamic Venting Technology
Where you select a manual or automatic Fresh-Hold cycle, this feature keeps your clothes nice and prevents creasing. The air circulates to keep odor or wrinkles from setting in for up to 12 hours after the wash cycle ends. Plus, this option may be selected manually at any time to dry out the interior of the washer.

PowerWash
Whether you choose a hot or cold-water wash you get great cleaning result with the powerful Power-Wash technology. You can also get an extra cleaning boost with the inbuilt water heater.

Stain Clean option
Your washing will be treated to the ideal water temperature together with the optimal quantity of detergent so that you end up with the best cleaning result for a good wash day.

Allergen Removal Washer Cycle
Hay fever and respiratory difficulties are often caused by dust, fluff and normal household allergens on your clothes, but this washing cycle gets rid of almost all irritating microbes – up to 95%.

    How does this washer stand out? »


    This is identical to the 7000 with certain useful features missing such as Steam cycle, Oxi Boost, and Max Extract. See the 7000 for description of these features. The 6000 also has 2 hours less on the delay start, and 1 less cycle than the 7000. So if you want a Maytag Maxima without the extremely tasty icing on the cake which comes with the 7000, then having that extra $100 dollars in your pocket will let you go get some real cake :)

    MHW6000XWZ FRONT LOADER NEW
    by: JAMES AKIN

    DO NOT PURCHASE THIS WASHING MACHINE. IT IS A PIECE OF CRAP THAT MAYTAG WILL NOT STAND BEHIND AND HAS FAILED WITHIN 2 YEARS OF PURCHASE. WHILE THE STAINLESS STEEL TUB AND MOTOR HAVE A 10 YEAR WARRANTY, THE ELECTRONIC CONTROLS WHICH RUN THE MACHINE HAVE 1 YEAR. WHEN THE CONTROL UNIT GOES OUT, IT LITERALLY COSTS MORE THAN THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE MACHINE TO REPLACE IT, WITH NO CERTAINTY THAT THAT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM.......IF NOT....MORE PARTS AND LABOR. I HAVE USED MAYTAG PRODUCTS FOR YEARS (THE FORMER MACHINE LASTED ALMOST 17 YEARS) BUT THEY NO LONGER PRODUCE QUALITY MACHINES, AND EVEN WORSE, WILL NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT. I AM AN UNHAPPY AND VINDICTIVE CONSUMER AND WILL REMAIN SO.
