AB1200 Product Details

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy, and expensive and you probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Fantastic!

Submitted by GRAJunior - 10/28/2019

Clothes are cleaner using with less water than my previous top load washer. Wash time is shorter as well. Very happy with my new washer! I took away one star from a 5 star washer only because the end of cycle tone is very low even set to the loudest setting. Using WiFi with notifications is the only way I know the wash cycle is complete.

Submitted by Zammer - 10/27/2019

Bought this a month ago; works well; seems to take a while to dry things; still learning how to work the features. It is large, so far I've only tried to dry a Queen Size quilt; and it worked quit well; didn't wrinkle up the quilt; the steam feature is nice;

Submitted by Cookca1990 - 9/29/2019

My wife and I just bought our first house, and after apartment living for the past year, we wanted something to handle our laundry needs with ease. Our apartments had subpar laundry facilities, so getting something efficient and powerful was important to us. The dryer is quiet, fast, and sleek as well.

Clothes comes clean

Submitted by Lindakay - 9/19/2019

I bought this about a month ago and so far I have been impressed. There are a couple things I would change if I was making this machine. I wish it had a light inside that could be left on. There is no light option while the machine is running. I also wish it had a tumble feature. I like the size of the dryer. I can put big blankets in it and it is very large.

Nice Color

Submitted by Greg L - 9/8/2019

We had a noise problem on the day it was installed. Service rep said it was a bad "fan belt". Also said it was a common problem. Will install the parts within a weeks time. Should have better quality control.

Best Dryer Ever

Submitted by D & M - 8/10/2019

In the 6 weeks we have been using this dryer (bought with matching washer) it has been faster, quieter, and put out much nicer looking wrinkle free clothes than the old one ever did. Huge capacity too!! Living on the coast it evens handles a little sand that sneaks in. We have ours stacked and its a little tough to read the controls but it isn't Maytag's fault I am only average height. We love it. Always wanted a Maytag and it doesn't disappoint.

Poor user manual and temperature control.

Submitted by Sparkie48 - 7/29/2019

The features that are indicated for temperature and time control in the user manual don't all work. There are 5 temperature settings the air dry works good and the high temperature works good. The middle settings seem to be all the same as the hot.

Submitted by Nana14053 - 7/5/2019

I Love to do laundry again ♥️ I bought my new Maytag Dryer a week ago and it's fabulous. My old Maytag was 15 years old and even though it looked brand new because I take very good care of my appliances it was just worn out. I was actually sad to see the old girl go. This new dryer is amazing and I was thrilled about all the new features. I would highly suggest if your in need of a new dryer or washer give Maytag a look see. I promise you won't be disappointed.

Submitted by largoo - 6/3/2019

Bought our new Maytag dryer exactly a week ago. Love the steam option for taking wrinkles out of clothes. Also, when I need something dried quickly, I can use the quick dry with extra power. Haven't felt the urge to connect it with my phone through wifi, but not ruling it out.

Love my new dryer

Submitted by Nomm - 4/26/2019

I'm still learning all the features. Love the control panel up front easy to reach. Many useful choices offered. Love the side opening door rather than a folding down opening door. Makes reaching into the back of the drum easier. Love the style of the square door very much; wish is that the interior lights would stay on longer with the door open while I pull out one item at a time to be folded.
