OT--for anyone looking for Maytag parts

May 28, 2004 3 Replies

I hate the new Maytags, but I'm the proud owner of a '70s-vintage Maytag gas dryer. Very well made, been running forever with no service. Last week one of the gas solenoid coils found. They're available as a kit with all the coils and related parts. What I found:



Local Maytag shop: $70 Phone order parts supply: $50 Various online suppliers: $40-50



And finally I ran across an outfit called Pride Laundery Systems out in California. $29.87 shipped 2-day UPS. They're a commercial laundry setup/supply place. Just an FYI.

I am NOT the proud owner of a maytag neptune front load washer i figured for $1100 I won't have any problems, they have come out 4 times and replaced the washer twice.Now its out of warnty and one of the resisters blew controling the door latch .$250 for parts .I unhooked the door latch and as long as the door stays closed everthing is ok.I wish they made them like the old ones.

a couple of months ago. I would save your note, but since it's a Maytag hopefully neither one of us will ever have to order again :-) :-).
