    Maytag Centennial Washer and Dryer
    by: Anonymous

    I used to love maytag products. Since whirlpool acquired the brand, I am very disappointed. I absolutely hate my new set which I purchased a year and one half ago. It tends to have a mind of its own and the only way my clothes come clean is to use the heavy heavy cycle which takes about 70 minutes that is also the time it takes my dryer to dry 1 load (I do not overfill)! Tonight the machine decided to keep washing and rinsing and my load took over 2 hours to complete. I finally had to stop it manually. Ughhhh! Anyone want to buy a used washer and dryer?
