Features of a Maytag Front Load Washer
Maytag offers a wide range of feature packed and user friendly front load washers. Choosing a model with the features you need for your home is the key to getting the best from your new washing machine.
Exciting features found among Maytag front load washers include:
- The Extra Power Button: A highlight for busy households washing sports uniforms and work clothes, Maytag’s extra power button boosts stain fighting power with extra agitation on any cycle.
- Direct Drive Motors: Featured in many Maytag front load washer models, the hard working direct drive comes with a 10 year limited warranty as a sign of confidence.
- Quick cycles: With options for a quick cycle as short as 15 minutes, last minute laundry is no longer impossible.
- Energy efficiency: Using less energy, water, and money than top loading options, many Maytag options are EnergyStar® certified.
- Sanitizing options: Keep a healthy home with sanitizing cycles that kill up to 99.9% of household bacteria.
- Late add feature: We always find one more piece of laundry after the washer has started. With Maytag’s late add feature, you can pause the machine to add an item after a cycle begins.
- Fresh Spin™: No more rewashing laundry after it sits for too long in the washer. Fresh Spin continues to tumble clothes for up to 12 hours, preventing wrinkles and keeping your laundry fresh.
Pros and Cons of a Front Load Washer
Front load washing machines are a staple appliance in Europe and have been for decades. In the US, these efficient, gentle, yet effective washers are gaining popularity for their many advantages. Below, we highlight some major pros and cons of a Maytag front load washer to help on your journey to find the perfect laundry set.
Pros of a front load washing machine:
- Regular savings: Using less water, energy, and therefore money to run cycles, a front load washer is a more efficient alternative.
- Stackable options: With no opening on the top of these washing machines, they can be stacked with your dryer, halving the floor space needed for laundry.
- Gentle washing: Despite power boosting technologies to make easy work of stains, front loading models use a gentler method of washing for longer lasting clothes.
- Easy access for loading: With many ADA complaint options available, front load washers can be easier to load and unload for young people and those with disabilities.
- Advanced features: Many models are built with intuitive cycle technology, wrinkle prevention, and Wi-Fi enabled controls. More homeowners are choosing this style than ever before, demanding the very best technology in new front loading models.
- Investment: Front loaders can be a little more expensive than traditional models. By shopping smart at a reputable discount appliance store like Tony’s, you can secure a front loading washer for a surprisingly low price.
- Potential for mold: Often preventable but unfortunately quite common, mold and mildew can easily build up around the seal of your washing machine if it doesn’t get enough air. Leaving the door ajar or selecting a model with a focus on minimizing mold can help with prevention.
