Has one of the recalled dw's. The repair person came out and screwed up her dw so bad that it is no inoperable. The digital display is faint and the dw does not start. She is waiting for someone else to come out to repair it. Prior to this, the dw was working flawlessly. Guess the repairman from Maytag did not know what he was doing. |

We have only had 1 problem with our Maytag. 1) The water valve quit working shorly after it hit the 1 year mark. I replaced the water valve myself. Flawless since! I'm also afraid a repair person will screw ours up! GRRRRR! |

My folks have a Jetclean II, butits serial number is not one that is affected. It is without a doubt the best dishwasher I have ever used (I have not had the pleasure of using a Kitchen Aid of any vintage). I saw some new Maytags that looked similar, but they seemed a bit flimzy in comparison. If given a choice, I would definately fix this dishwasher. I now live with a Whirlpool Gold series dishwasher and I have words for it, but if I were to use them I would offend many horse-stable cleaners, fertilizer resellers, and sewage treatment plant workers. It's like an old Hobart Kitchen Aid, everything since has been downhill. Avoid WP dishwashers, Dave |

My understanding is that it's possible that while repairing these units for recall-related troubles that the machine may develop other troubles. Although it may look like the repairman did wrong, actually these additional failures are due to normal wear-and-tear! Don't blame the Maytag repairman! The dishwasher was probably deteriorating due to years of use and therefore needing more repair than y'all realized. Fortunately, rumor has it that Whirlpool-Maytag may pick up reasonable extra repairs leaving your dishwasher in better condition than it was. |
