I just stumbled upon something absolutely beautiful but oh so mysterious. When I first seen the photo of this machine I figured it was an SQ made Amana, as anyone else would, and then they zoomed into the control panel and it’s clearly a speed Queen with a Maytag label on it….first of all what the hell? I had no idea Maytag affiliated with Alliance at any period before the last buyout. Very very strange stuff….I’d love to have this model even had an extra rinse switch. Very rare for sure and figured some of you would be intrigued.

Yes run away. Maytag bought Amana in 2001 and when they started mixing their Herrin design with the Amana design it was disastrous for them. Since this one has the Maytag name on it I would assume that it is one of those models. I am kind of amazed though that 20 years later one still exists. The Amana machines built before this were still good machines except for center seal troubles that ruined the top bearing and caused many repair folks to misdiagnose as a transmission failure.

Sears sold this washer and dryer I worked at Sears in 2002 in the lawn and garden center right across from appliance central. They had this exact Maytag washer with the matching dryer. Home Depot had the same exact set except with GE on them around the same time frame. | ||
