    Died after less than a month.
    It worked for less than a month and then it died mid-cycle. I contacted Maytag and the soonest they can get someone out is 9 days from my call. Utterly ridiculous.

      Quiet and loaded with features!
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this around 4th of July. Love stainless steel inside and outside. It is super quiet compared to my old dishwasher and holds more dishes. Love staggered top rack and utensils basket.

        Finaly was able to install it after a few months. There was water in the drain hose. This me Leary, but thought it may be from quality test or something. Fully installed it and it was dead. No power or anything. Not sure why but the lights didnt even turn on. Going to exchange it for 1 more try. Usually my maytag appliances work well. Maybe a defect.

          OF COURSE, I KNEW...
          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My lovely new Maytag dishwasher is my third of its kind. I will have no other. I’m in my 70s, so I’ve done a lot of dishes. Hands down, any Maytag dishwasher performs better than any other brand. When we bought our new home, and I saw that inferior dishwasher sitting there, my comment was, “Well, I’ll be getting a Maytag.” And I did. We are still in the “getting acquainted” stage, but I am pleased with this beauty’s performance thus far. It has accommodated all the dishes and cookery I placed in it to be cleaned. It’s very quiet. Looks splendid. Does the job. What more could I ask?

            Best dishwasher
            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the third one I have bought. I bought one for my two daughters and they loved it so much I bought one to replace my old one.

                Great dishwasher!
                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this model based on recommendation from a friend. Really like it! Quiet, cleans well, fits a lot. There is more room on bottom rack and the top rack gradually drops from smaller items to bigger items. Nice. Looks great in my new kitchen.

                  Saved my hands. OSOM performance. The conditioner deposit is awkward to fill and to even see through. Do I need to peel the soap off the plastic wrap?

                  So far so good
                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve used it only twice since I purchased it. It took me about a month before I installed it. I’m a workaholic. But anyway... I do love it. It gets my dishes sparkling clean. It is very quiet while running. So, in the few times I have used it, it works wonderful

                    The install of this washer was disappointing- they gave me no power cord with it (as I have heard they do with all dishwashers) and there was no attachment piece that was needed to attach the drain line. Since I was replacing an existing dishwasher, the install should have been much easier than it was. I had to make a special run down to Home Depot to get a power cord installation kit and the drain line attachment. These, in my opinion, should have been included. Other than that, it is an excellent washer and I am glad I purchased it!! Very good quality and does an excellent job! The only other thing I might mention is that the lettering is a bit small on the front in regards to the settings and phases the wash is in. The LED light is so bright it kind of makes the lettering hard to read. I have to put my finger over the light to read the lettering above it.

                    AMAZING Dishwasher!
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After 5 years of not having a dishwasher, I told my husband all I wanted for Christmas was a Maytag dishwasher! I absolutely love all the features that are offered on my dishwasher! Before I had my dishwasher, I never felt confident that my dishes were really clean. Now that I have my Maytag dishwasher, and it has the high temp and sanitizing features, I know that everything I wash is as clean as it could possibly be! It doesn't matter if there's cooked on cheese, or egg it cleans everything without missing a beat! I would not trade my dishwasher for anything!

                          Not stainless steel!
                          Dishwasher is less than a year old. It developed stains on the inside steel plate, upper part of the door. The stains cannot be removed. Very disappointed in bad steel quality. I do not recommend the product. I don't know if the warranty would cover this.

                              Cleans Super Well & Quiet!
                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After trying to clean our very old dishwasher unsuccessfully, we knew we had to buy a new one. After watching reviews, I went with this Maytag dishwasher, and I am SO glad I did! First, having stainless steel on the outside was pretty BUT having it INSIDE is what got me. Our previous one had all plastic that was holding smells, stains, and mold. I knew that having stainless steel as an interior would last longer and stay cleaner. This dishwasher is so powerful at cleaning dishes! They come out dry and cleaner than any other dishwasher I have ever used in my life. The ease of the touch buttons with features like hot start and sanitize on the front of the dishwasher take it over the top. We used to have to wait until we were going to bed to start the dishwasher, because we couldn't hear the TV over the old one. Now, we turn this Maytag on and have to double-check that we actually started it because it is so quiet! I love that there are two complete racks for putting the dishes on; no annoying space in the center to worry about blocking for the sprayer. The bottom rack is great for plates, pans, pots, and overflow of glasses and bowls. Having the silverware go stem down into its own separate little hole keeps it apart from the others and makes them super clean! We love this Maytag dishwasher so much that we are going to get a Maytag refrigerator next year.

                                So far so good
                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this to replace the “vintage” Maytag that was in our kitchen when we moved it. It must have been from the 70s. We figured this must be a good brand since it lasted so long! However this one is about 100 times quieter than the old one. So far it gets all the dishes spotless, though they are not always totally dry, thus the 4 stars. But overall very happy.

Far superior fit, finish, and materials. Super quiet. Much nicer looking. Gets dishes much cleaner. Almost same price as the 2003 unit was!!

                                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Our old dishwasher unexpectedly broke down a year ago, so I started the search for a new one. This Maytag model was well priced and had everything we wanted in a new dishwasher. Installation was easy to do myself and we had the old one pulled and the new one installed in a couple of hours. The stainless steel tub is nice, sturdy and doesn't collect nastiness like the old plastic tub. The unit is quieter than our old model but has no problem getting even hard to clean spots off.

                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Just got our first new dishwasher in 13 yrs about a week ago. DIY install relatively straight forward. Dishes come out very clean and dry. Quick cycle takes just about an hour. Getting used to the silverware basket being in the bottom rack (instead of the door like in our old GE). On the bright side , plenty of clearance between the the top and bottom racks allow for kitchen utensils to go in the basket Like the overall heavy duty feel , very quiet operation and cleaning ability on this machine.
