Ive had this refrigerator for two months and Im very happy with its overall performance The only downfall is the interior refrigerator drawers are hard to slide open and close

Had an emergency need for new refrigerator as the one we had unexpectedly died Ordered this one from Sears Outlet delivered timely deliveryman very very helpful

Shelves are not adjustable Filter for water and ice cost 4050 dollars very 6 months Had cracked parts in ice maker replaced after only 2 monthsrepair person said he had never seen anything like it

Bought this new fridge about a week ago Love the in the door ice maker Lots of room in the freezer and fridge both One thing that I dont like is that the temperature controls for fridge and freezer are push buttons on the icewater dispenser Easily hit accidentally The only way to prevent accidental temp change would be to lock the dispenser as well Other than that seems to be a great fridge overall

I made a prior review but dont see a way to update it The prior review is 2 out of 5 stars and titled NICE FRIDGE BUT REALLY NOISY Maytag responded to call their customer care which I did I tried to update my review to reflect the result of this plus new issue compressor runs almost all the time but cant update my review Setting to 1 of 5 stars due to compressor issue although fridge works I know there is something wrong but I am stuck as service says no issues Here are the responses to the prior noted issues plus the new compressor issue Compressor start is noisy especially at startup Much louder than prior Whirlpool diagnosed as normal Evaporator fan is loud constant hum easily heard a couple rooms away It almost as loud as the dishwasher running diagnosed normal Dispenser Water not cold Tech advised normal only cools about a cup of water It has the same type of cooling loop on prior KenmoreWhirlpool which had limited supply but was able to provide cold water The Maytag always provides room temp or a little below never cold Worthless for dispensing cold water seems like a design flaw if it only cools 1 cup of water which it doesnt even do that Water drips once or twice after use normal The manual says this may happen to hold glass under dispenser for 2 3 seconds after dispensing but drip occurs 10 15 seconds Due to this we have hard water stains in tray and all down the front of the refrigerator Diagnosed as normal suggested leaving paper towel on base of dispenser area Really Ice chute Every 2nd or 3rd use an ice cube gets stuck between door and chute This is due to the door closing fast and not giving time for falling ice to come out of chute This means we have to check EVERY time we get ice to be sure door closes either by bending down to look up into it or reaching up in ice chute to be sure door closes If chute is stuck open the stuck ice will melt and create a puddle in dispenser area and on kitchen floor Diagnosed as normal Really This is a design flaw if the door stayed open for 1 second after ice dispensing the issue would be eliminated Condensation on outsidefront of freezer door dispenser area When humid we live in FL there is about a quarter size spot that condenses water out of the air This means there is a gap in the insulation Tech advised that keep temp of house below 75 to avoid this I descibed that it is humidity thing not temp but he advised the Engineer he called told him this and engineer is never wrong I hate to say engineer is wrong If our house gets over 60 humidity it will condense there Using a spot read thermometer does indeed show that spot on the door is colder by at least 5 degrees meaning there is a gap in the insulation I was very roundly told I was wrong and that it is a house temperature issue Issue insulation gap in dispenser area tech was told it was normal While the above issues are not really Functional type issues the refrigerator recently started to freeze a large number of items The compressor has been running much longer than normal for past couple weeks easy to determine because it is so audible service was called and advised it is normal It is summer and fridge has to run more It is October and summer didnt start 2 weeks ago Something is functionally running different with the refrigerator I guess we have to tolerate it randomly freezing the refrigerator since it is running as normal The compressor has been running significantly longer per over past couple weeks it is on nearly all the time There is clearly an issue with it but nothing can be done as the techs note all is normal with it It ran fine for 7 months cycling as expected but starting about 2 weeks ago the compressor has run nearly nonstop Tech advised to not use rear half of top refrigerator shelf as items on it will freeze I can see why as cold air comes from freezer into refrigerator but seems like a design flaw to have the cold air so focused on one area rendering half the top shelf useless Additionally we were advised to have less stuff in the freezer it is full but there is space in it It is not blocking vents or freezing From our prior understanding a full freezer is more efficient than an empty one as long as vents arent blocked Weve never had an issue with this in 20 years of refrigeratorfreezers and the issues listed here are not related to freezer load I am not sure why Id buy a freezer this large then be told to only use half of it This makes no sense All of my appliances are now Maytag The refrigerator was in the last batch of appliances I replaced The appliances have been good with the exception of this refrigerator Prior refrigerator was Kenmore Whirlpool based and was a major reason we went with Maytag as we had good experience with it It seems things have changed drastically as this refrigerator was a major downgrade to our prior one and it seems the QA department at Maytag didnt review how this model functions and released it with major design flaws lack of cold water drips ice cube chute getting stuck open insulation issues It also seems a lack of review of the refrigerator before it left the factory as at setup time I found numerous spare screws inside the refrigerator and freezer as well as silicon all over the inside this took a lot of time to clean I hope Maytags other refrigerators are better than this one I know good companies sometimes have duds but it is so aggravating to be stuck with this with no support ie Tech says it is functioning normal or as expected or way out of it If I could return it I would but I gave it too much time to settle inbreak in to see if things got better Heed the warnings in the other reviews There were not many reviews when I purchased this and I got burned
