Maytag MVWC565FW2 Centennial Series Washing Machine | Full Cycle Washing Towels

Описание: A Maytag Centennial Series washing machine model MVWC565FW2. Full cycle washing towels.

I really struggled to find a reasonable washing machine still under production, this seemed to be the best I could come up with. I believe this is made by Whirlpool, with the Maytag name put on. Maytag always used to make a great machine, and Whirlpool appliances from the 90s really stood the test of time. I'm sure this unit is nothing like the ones of the past, but time will tell.

It uses electronic controls instead of a mechanical timer which I don't like. It rotates the drum while the water fills, which makes no sense and seems like a waste of the motor and, ironically, electrical energy. The agitation pattern doesn't make much sense to me, but I've put some pretty dirty towels in here before and they do come out clean. It also fills almost completely with water, which seems to be a rare feature at this point.

Overall it's not a bad machine, it cleans well enough and despite being electronically controlled, the control set is relatively simple to operate and doesn't have annoying lights and sounds or additional complications. It boasts a 10 year parts warranty, but I find it hard to believe it will last anywhere near that long. I of course would prefer a vintage model, but I haven't been able to find one yet and don't foresee one surfacing around here anytime soon.
