Get a different machine
,PostedNovember 27, 2007
I replaced a 15+ year old Kenmore washer and dryer. I wish I had just had the dryer serviced because they were still in great working order, and they worked better than these have ever worked. First off, the machine is really quiet, I will give it that. Those of you who have found it loud on the high spins, it is not completely level. The biggest thing is that it must be designed to wash really small loads because when I put in what I think is an average size load, and I am by no means cramming it, really a regular sized load, it often doesn't seem to clean very well. I've had stuff come out still smelling dirty, and it doesn't do very well with stains either. The cycles take a really long time too. I hate this one a little bit less than I hate the dryer, but if you're considering this pair, see my review about the dryer before you buy. Purchasing this set was the biggest mistake I've made, and I'm still making payments on it, so I'm stuck with it for a while.
No, I do not recommend this product.

Great Product
,PostedSeptember 18, 2007
I had a older Maytag Neptunr that was a problem item for the first fe years we had it. But after 5 years if finally had to go. I did ny homework by checking reviews and prices, I found that the Epic was the most bang for the Dollar. We have had it for 3 weeks now and It has been a very, very cost effective quiet machine, Yes t maybe alittle noiser on the high spin cycle. But face it.. that tub really spins fast. When I place things in dryer. It is almost dry. we reduced dry times by 40% Great comeback Maytag from the terrible Neptune
Yes, I recommend this product.

Smart Washer
,PostedSeptember 6, 2007
This should have been called the "Smart Washer" as this is the most efficient washer to date. This washer knows exactly how much water to use and you only need a small amount of detergent, bleach, etc. for your clothes to be cleaned. Both my water and electric bill have decreased in the few months I have had this washer. This is definitely the best applicance investments I have ever made.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Excellant
,PostedAugust 9, 2007
My wife and I bought the May tag Epic Series Washer and Dryer from the Home depot in Grand Prairie 5270 S Hwy 360. I did my product research on consumer reports, and I was impressed. The pair seemed to have everything we needed to handle our daily laundry needs. We both work in Law Enforcement and are contanstaly needing to have Clean Uniforms. So when we decided to purchase these we were informed and ready to buy. We made out purchase and had them deliverd to our house. At first the delivery company made a greivous error and the washer had a factory defect with it. When we made contact with the store we purchased from, we got the run around. But after speaking to the stores Assistant manager Named Miguel, he convinced me to stay there swapped out the defective washer and it worked like a charm. Once we got a working washer, we loved it. It really washes cleans or clothes quicker than the regular top loaders, and the dryer is even faster then it. I am so pleased and it was worht it to spend the extra money to get a product worth its weight in gold. Thanx Miguel and Maytag you made me a Maytag(man) for life. Love the product and the greatest customer service. Thanx Again Miguel
Yes, I recommend this product.

Mine is not noisy at all
,PostedFebruary 26, 2007

I bought this Maytag December 06 because our 13 yr old Maytag finally broke down. At first I was a little nervous because of the first reviewer's stating that it is noisy at high spins. To my pleasant surprise, this washer couldn't be any quieter. I watched the delivery person's installation -- he used a leveler to make sure the washer is completely level before and after tightening the feet (the guy spent over 10 minutes with this alone). Maybe this is the difference maker?
Whatever the case, this washer is very quiet for us. No bad smell or mold issues. And I have to admit that our clothes are much whiter and cleaner.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Review 8 for Epic? 4.0 Cu. Ft. Super Capacity High Efficiency Front Load Washer

Maytag 9700 SQ
,PostedFebruary 16, 2007
I bought this machine 1 month ago. It cleans large and small loads very well. There is a pull out drawer to add detegent that is easily accessible. However, I agree with a previous reviewer that the high and very high speed spins are very noisy. I was very disappointed because I was told this machine was the quietest one they had and was appropriate for usage on a second floor. I made a service call and the repair person came out within a week. He was very good and gave my machine a thorough check. The repair man explained to me that most houses are not designed to handle the high and very high speed spins on the second floor, and that this model should be operated on a solid surface(like the basement). This is a good machine if its placed in an area its designed for. I was more disappointed in the lack of knowledge of the person who sold me this machine!
Yes, I recommend this product.

Review 9 for Epic? 4.0 Cu. Ft. Super Capacity High Efficiency Front Load Washer

Aweome Washing Machine!!!
,PostedFebruary 11, 2007
I recently replaced an older Kenmore dryer and a high capacity Whirlpool top loader with the EPIC 9700 washer and dryer. The difference in performance is like night and day. While my old top loader would practically tie my jeans into knots on large loads, the EPIC is incredibly gentle on my clothes. The EPIC uses far less water, less detergent, cleans the clothes noticeably better, washes significantly larger loads and spin drys better. Because the spin dry works so well, the clothes dry faster in the dryer and since the clothes didn’t get tied into knots in the washer, they come out of the dryer with fewer wrinkles.
While my laundry room is just off my family room, noise is also a big factor. My old machine was incredibly loud and even with the laundry room door closed; it was terrible to listen to from the family room. The EPIC is so quiet I can hardly hear it washing when I’m standing in front of it. The previous poster mentioned a noise problem on the high speed spin but I have not experienced anything like that. My laundry room has a poured slab floor so it’s rock solid and there is no excess noise or vibrations in any setting. The bottom line is: these units really are worth the extra money. I’m very, very impressed.
Yes, I recommend this product.

Cleans clothes but noisy
,PostedDecember 1, 2006
Bought Maytag Epic Washer and Dryer 3 months ago replacing Kenmore top load washer and front load dryer. Build and finish of this washer is pretty good and both washer and dryer are easy to use. The only thing I don't like is with the washer. At "high" "extra high" spin cycle, the washer can get very noisy and would vibrate the floor and walls in the laundry room. I even checked to make sure the washer is level too and four locking nuts at the feet are tightened too. My sister has Neptune model and hers wasn't as loud as my Epic model which is a higher model and supposedly has less noise level. If I could give it, I would give this washer a 3.5 stars.
No, I do not recommend this product.
