Keep looking!
by twhlover ,Sep 02 '06
Pros: Pretty Cons: Extremely noisy, long cycles, and it can't clean
This is by far, the absolute worst appliance I have ever owned (and at 53 years old I've owned quite a few!)
I chose a Maytag because I always thought it was the best money could buy. My old dishwasher was a Maytag and I loved it. Well, like the saying goes, they sure don't build them like they used to.
It is extremely noisy, takes forever to run through even its shortest cycle, and is difficult to load. I would be willing to put up with all of those downfalls if only it could clean. Nope...can't even do that!
This machine is only about a year old and I'm in the market for a new one.

I HATE mine!
by firstnagymom ,Jan 09 '05
Pros: It works great at first Cons: Things break, need replacing no technical help. I'm back to doing by hand!
I've had to replace the silverware baskets twice. They keep breaking through the bottom so now I try to make sure knives are point upward--not fun when trying to fill and empty. The adjustable dish racks quit staying up so THEY need replacing. NOW at just over 2 years of age, it will NOT clean my dishes. The glasses are always full of junk and the plates are filthy. We've checked the owners manual and can't find any assistance there. Supposedly the filter never needs cleaning. Riiiight. Only problem is, we can't find one. E-mails to Maytag go unanswered.
Personally? I would NOT recommend this dishwasher to anyone. I wish I had never bought it and had spent the bigger amount to buy the Jenn-Air sitting next to it in Lowes.

Maytag 7600 - WHAT A BUMMER!
by miffedbymaytag ,Mar 17 '06
Pros: NONE! Cons: SHODDY PRODUCT AND PASS THE BUCK SERVICE.
I bought a Maytag Jetclean 7600 a little more than two years ago. It leaked so I called Maytag repair and they replaced the drain hose. But it still leaked. Then it was discovered that the interior case is cracked and that's why it leaked. Under their 20 warrantee I'm entitled to a new replacement. The Maytag repair people told that I needed to deal with the Maytag warehouse people, the Maytag warehouse people told me that I need to deal with The Maytag Store people, The Maytag Store people told me that I need to deal with the Maytag warehouse people. You get the picture.
The product sucks! But only slightly less than the service.
Three weeks later ... and I'm still waiting.

Not well designed
by genealogylady ,Oct 27 '05
Pros: The deep interior design does allow for more large items, like pots. Cons: It isn't configured for my dishes. Parts are plastic; not durable.
I have had my built-in Maytag dishwasher for two years and have had service problems several times. The most recent is the door latch. The catch for the latch is made of two receivers which are made of plastic. They are horseshoe-shaped and one of the legs on both of the catches are broken. The part is flimsily made out of plastic...in fact it is molded as part of the control panel. Therefore, when that tiny part broke after about 27 months of use, the whole control panel had to be replaced. The bill for service was $124...but the part cost $52 of that. I called for Customer Service and they agreed to reimburse me the price of the part only. Prior to this dishwasher, I owned a Kitchenaid for about 20 years and wish I had gotten another one instead of this toy. I am fearful of what the future will bring.

Maytag Dishwasher Unreliable !!!! Poor Service Issues !!!
by pascoboys ,Dec 04 '03
Pros: NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE NONE Cons: Unreliable Poor Service Issues A word of caution avoid Matag if you can !
We bought a maytag dishwasher thinking it would be a good one but it has been problems since the beginning. At first it would not clean the dishes so we had them to out to repair it. Then again it would not clean the dishes Maytag tells me to wash the dishes prior to putting them in the dishwasher LOL . So the guy comes out again and repairs it he brakes a seal on the water inlet and asks for some Teflon tape. I tell him I do not have and he says he fixed it without it. Now the next day this dishwasher is leaking in my house and has damaged my kitchen. So I contact matag to report the problem and see how to resolve it . They tell me It leaked because of my install and their first repairman said there was no leak. I get an independent repair men to see the damage and document the report. May tag continues to not pay my claim.

I WILL NEVER BUY A MAYTAG AGAIN!!!
by cgino ,Aug 06 '05
Pros: NONE! Cons: IT DOESN'T CLEAN, IT DOESN'T DRY AND IT STAINS THE SILVERWARE OR RUSTS IT.
I bought a new Maytag diswasher which never really worked well so I called to have it repaired but the repair person told me I had to warm the water from my faucet first, and use Jet dry. My dishes weren't getting clean and my silverware was always stained. In fact it was stained and then began getting rusty so I had to buy several sets. The next time a few months later,(I was trying different soaps and different cycles etc) I called, I was told that I was using too much soap but again nothing was done. Water lays in the bottom and the ridge gets moldy. I can't stand this machine. And Maytag will do nothing about it. I won't buy a Maytag ever again. But I am going to keep calling them until this issue is resolved!

Broken latch after 2.5 years
by ursulakjd ,May 19 '06
Pros: Fairly good cleaning job, quite initially but got louder over time. Cons: Door latch broke in the closed position, cant get anything out!
I read a number of reviews on this site to decide whether or not to call a repairman to fix the washer door as we could not open it.
We experienced no leaks; however the plastic rack parts are always falling out.
Based on the host of other serious problems people have had, I will replace it with a Bosch.

grrrr
by badkarma4me ,Jan 31 '09
Pros: maytag made money off me Cons: I hate the entire dishwasher
where do I start!! Lets see, everytime after I run a load I open the machine to clumps of dishwashing soap. I have tried liquids, the cubes and powdered. I have to completely rinse and clean all the dishes before i put them in. The dishwasher also does not dry the dishes I have to hand dry them after the cycle is done. I think maybe the public should know Maytag is not maytag they were bought out by another company. so much for our maytag reliabity and quality

Maytag MDB7600AWW
by dma1 ,May 08 '08
Pros: Tall tub, holds big pans. Cons: Very loud. Does not get dishes clean. Long cycle (2 hours).
This dishwasher never cleaned pots very well, even though we use Cascade and JetDry. Now it is 3 years old and stopped cleaning regular dishes properly. Tea cups and coffee mugs are stained, tomato sauce stills stains plates and cutlery is coated with fine powder. Sears came out twice to service this appliance, once re: extremely loud noise when draining water and today re: cleaning problem. Water is hot enough, using recommended detergent. Just doesn't clean dishes. I called Maytag for advice, they won't even talk to me because I bought it through Sears. Senior tech is coming next week. I will avoid Maytag like the plague when I replace appliances next time. I will also avoid Whirlpool who now owns Maytag.
