Great bassic Machines
And really all the washer and dryer anyone needs.
These machines are not hard on clothing if used properly, just use around a 6 minute wash period if clothing is not very dirty and don't overload such that the clothing can't move in the water. Having worked on 1000s and 1000s of these machines over the last 30+ years I have had very few ever complain about damaged or excessively worn clothing, and in fact have had far more complaints about Maytag washers with Power-Fin agitators. Its really all about knowing your machine and how to use it. The term shredmore is stupid, these were by far the best selling washers in the US for much of the last 30 years and few people were walking around in tattered torn clothing. John L. | ||

I have that exact Maytag washer. Always wondered what the matching dryer looked like. | ||

 >> Other than having a two speed agitation the MT set is no better than the basic KMs In this particular case, I would say that another pair of Maytags would have a distinct benefit over the Kenmores (or any other brand), in that they share so many mechanical design similarities with the older turquoise set that mrcoppertone purchased. Any familiarity gained from working on the daily drivers would help when the older set needed service, as well as vice-versa. (Other set for context) www.automaticwasher.org/c... | ||
