I love thier survey results MAYTAG IS THE # ! PREFERRED DISHWASHER BRAND and yet KM DWs built by WP, KA DWs built by WP and GE DWs were all handily out selling MT at the time and through the end of the MT brand. These were very good machines and this was one of MTs many stupid decisions in the last 10 years of thier existence when they came out with the tall tub machines they dropped this design like a rock in favor of the new much poorer performing machine. WP is at least still building thier standard tub design machine, MT should have kept theirs longer while they worked the many kinks out of the new tall tubs. |

The tower jets look more powerful than the jets from the lower spray arm. The jets from the top spray arms are barely noticeable. I often wonder how useful the top spray arm was, once the Maytags were no longer the reverse rack style. A small spray arm would have been enough. |

It sounds like your KA was the dreaded 19 series that heated the final rinse water and tried to flash dry the dishes without the heated dry. It didn't work.
My mother has the MOL version of this dishwasher. It has the touchpad controls, but no digital readout, just LEDs. It has the most convenient, and flexible, racks I've ever used. It's capacity is huge and everything comes out sparkling all the time. I think you could almost fill it with cement, run the cycle, and all would be gone. Dave |

Actually dried much better than the KD-18s and KDS-20s and the better 21 series. The 19s had a MUCH larger fan and moved much air than the models with the separate air heater.
Of course I am assuming that you are using the Energy Saver dry setting on the 18, 20 and 21 machines. I had my KDSS-20 for almost ten years and it did a miserable job drying, but I only ever used it on ESD just as I do on my 28 YO WP DW which does a beautiful job drying the dishes. |

Hi Sparky, I actually think they were over sold, we saw thousands of them in this area, MTs DW sales nearly doubled after they got rid of the Hated RR rack design [ hated by the general public that is ] But the interesting thing I found about the JC models is nearly every customer I encountered with then was not that pleased. I was always talking them up to the customer, telling them they should not replace them etc.
Just last week I was working for one of our customers with a mint 1997 MT JC DW and she couldn't wait to get rid of it, she complained that it did not hold much and that the dishes never really got that clean especially compared to her sisters newer KD DW. John L. |
