Lol. I really was shocked when I pulled the lint filter out. I was expecting to see a larger version of the filter I’m familiar with…. instead it was the exact same thing.

@@WasherDryerMoney Was you also shocked when their 'commercial technology' uses the same parts as all the other Whirlpool Corporation washers?

@@lilolme69 yeah other than using key screws there’s not much about it that’s different. Honestly I don’t understand the key style. Are they worried the homeowner is going to break into it. Lol. I did like that they added the rubber dampeners on the top corners to help stabilize the drum on the washer. But I still believe that they can permanently and easily make the suspension rods, so they do not fail.

@Washer Dryer Money yeah, I was suspicious and did the same thing at Lowe's. I still bought it anyway, but at least I knew going in. I do think it is a better design than the dryer lint filters in the front door area. I'd clean the filter, but I still would get some lint back on the clothes as I was pulling them out to fold them.

​@@WasherDryerMoney⁰ 😊dsaa!

I honestly think that’s a great idea. The washer is unique, but the dryer is ordinary and does not really deserve that top price range. Glad to hear he liked the washer.

Is the washer loud I keep hearing it is

​@@chrisruiz1215it is.. I'm upstairs (2nd flr) ATM & I can hear it. Not quiet like they say.

Rachel youtube.com/@RachaelARaines?feature=shared What brand is your dryer, model #, cubic sizes of your washer also model #, and dryer each also, how long have you had n used them, are you able to wash n dry a king size bedspread, are they HE "which keeps the dryer from getting hot enough" and does your washer completely drain water so when you move the tub by hand you don't hear water underneath it and does the washer tub easily move side to side front to back all the way so very unstable using your hand alone pushing it each direction? I really would apreciate your feedback on these things Please and Thank You

Amazing good to know

Worked well for you?

Yeah, don’t get me wrong. I still like the dryer. Filter out the top dryers are easy to work on and very dependable. I’m just not a fan of…exactly what you said feeling a little odd after watching their advertisement.

Yeah, they’re pushing hard now. Maytag was pushing the commercial set last year pretty hard.

​@@WasherDryerMoney now they have the replacement for the commercial washer with a water level selector.

Nice

I just picked up the washer for about 650. The dryer was sold out 😭

So true! I have a 1993 GE FILTER FLO set. It's fantastic at removing hair and lint from the wash. I love it, but it's small and wearing out. Maytags also had a filter in the agitator many years ago. Many washers had lint filters. I'd sure like to find the idiots who did away with them! I bought this Maytag Pet Pro set because they finally brought the washer lint filter back. It's not perfect, but overall, so far, I am glad I got it! It is SO GOOD to have a washer filter again!

@@MsKelsieJH Having a filter is good for the drains as well. Most portable washers and European top loaders have filters.

@petermaz EXACTLY! I'm hoping these will catch on and other companies will follow suit. I even wrote to GE and begged them to bring back the Filter Flo. With all the environment conscious people out there, you'd think a simple cheap piece of plastic would be a no-brainer.

Very true. I have actually worked on several of those with the filter. I think these are a little more efficient because they’re sucking through the center of the agitator and not having to push the hair through the holes of the drum. But who know it may be about the same. I would definitely say the older ones have a lot more water flow so it’s probably just as good.

@@WasherDryerMoney the vintage Maytags and Norge models push the water through the agitators into there filters.

Cool. How do you feel about the water level on non-deep cycle? I’ve heard some people say that it’s not enough water, and they just leave it on deep cycle.

@@WasherDryerMoney I'll let you know when I take delivery eta next Thursday. 🤗

@@wendyward3273 definitely let me know. I’m thinking about doing a follow up video focusing only on the Washer and going into a lot more details. Would definitely love to hear your opinion on what you think about it.

@Washer Dryer Money I was able to revive my Kenmore dryer, so I canceled my order. However, I'm still interested in viewing your review on the washer since I get the feeling I'll be reordering. I know these will be my next machines, and I was also considering the Maytag commercial washer as well, though these have a larger capacity.

​@@WasherDryerMoneySo I'm trying to figure out which washer to get. I was hooked on this one. But now idk. Would you suggest the speed queen? If so which one? Are all speed queens efficient at removing pet hair like the maytag washer here??

Got to love Speed Queen. I’ve always said if you can get the full speed queen set just get the washer.

Glad to help. I do like the washer (especially now that they put it on sale lately) but I don’t think the dryer is anything special.

Thanks glad you liked it.

Wow, that’s cool history. My grandparents have a old lady Kenmore dryer that is used to this day. I asked my grandfather what he has replaced on it, and he said all he remembers replacing was the belt. It really was an incredible design made to the last, unlike the drunk they produce nowadays. Curious because you know a lot about the history of Appliances what washer and dryer would you recommend if someone was looking to buy new?

@@WasherDryerMoney I’d recommend Speed Queen since they seem to be the only one that stands behind their product. Maytag hands down made some of the most reliable and dependable washers and dryers ever made since Maytag didn’t change the design much on their machines from 1966 to 2006 but ended up shooting themselves in the foot since Maytag didn’t bother to work on the bugs in their Neptune machines (at least the early ones from about 1997) and had rebadged Norge machines (known as the Performa) which weren’t known for holding up all that well which is what ended up causing Maytag to be bought out by Whirlpool in 2006. If Maytag hadn’t made those mistakes (hell, even bothered with the Neptune or Performa machines), they’d probably be number # 1 since they would have a very reliable machine since the only things that ever failed on those machines were either the belts or pump (in some cases, the bearings would need to be replaced along with the tub seal, damper pads, breaks assembly, but those were few and far between) and all you had to do was remove the front panel to get to those items, doesn’t even take 15 minutes to do those repairs. Whirlpool made decent machines up until 1986 when they discontinued their belt drive washers (that design dates back to at least 1947) since those could go for some time but usually needed a new pump every 10 years or so, sometimes the plungers on the control magnet assembly aka wig wag would break causing it to either engage but not disengage or simply wouldn’t engage all together. In extreme cases, the spring inside the transmission that pushed down the shifter fork would break which would causes the agitate gear to pop in and out not allowing it to engage, last but not least is the center post seals when they shortened the center post in 1978 would fail (this can happen to direct drives as well) and the machine would “spill it’s guts” as someone in a vintage appliance forum I am would say since the water would get inside the transmission contaminating the oil and making a big mess and if not a big mess, would simply ruin the transmission oil since it was contaminated with water. As for Frigidaire, Frigidaire machines were good up until 1979 when they were discontinued by GM (yep, GM made appliances for Frigidaire up until 1979) and in 1980 is when WCI got ahold of Frigidaire, Kelvinator, and Westinghouse which all ruined their reputation. GE made good appliances up until 1994 since that was the last year for the Filter Flo machines, 1995 is when they switched to a new design which was inferior to the Filter Flo and wasn’t known for holding up, have a friend in Michigan who knew someone who had one of those GE washers made after 1994 which only saw about 400 loads before it’s transmission died. I’ve learned all of this stuff from reading through the archives on the automaticwasher forums and from friends who collect and restore appliances as a hobby. Sounds like I’ve been working on those machines for years but am just someone who’s 23 years old who has a huge appreciation for the past in terms of history and engineering.

@@seana806 interesting I don’t really get on forms very often. Let me know where you’re looking I would love to do some research. The biggest problem I see with the downfall of dependable of machines is not as much the company is planning for them to fail in five years so they can make another sale. I mean that’s completely possible but I would say the next machine they buy would not be from that company. A lot of times people do not realize whirlpool owns nearly everything and they again may buy from the same company but most of the time they will move onto Samsung or LG. The biggest problem of undependable machines nowadays is the amount of metal in the machines. The transmissions are gone. It’s just a transfer case it’s mainly a motor that is literally going from forward to reverse to agitate. They’re trying to save as much money as possible by removing parts and adding plastic ones to lighten up for more than likely overseas shipping. Also, I’m sure you heard this, but have you noticed how there a lid locks on all new washers? It’s not for the reason most people think. It’s to lighten machine by removing the brake systems. The lid just stays locked until the machine slowly comes to a complete stop. This is also a factor in why new washers take so long to wash.

Glad you like the video. Thanks for commenting

Great the lid locks are getting worse. That’s sad to know.

Oh, great. I bought this set. What do I do?

@@MsKelsieJH it's not a bad set. It's just expensive.

@Bens Appliances and Junk I got lucky. (

Ben’s definitely right it’s not the worst set. You could’ve bought a Samsung for instance. That would be a nightmare.

Try adding white vinegar to your load. It opens and softens clothes fibers to help release the pet hairs. And make sure you're using deep fill. I notice when the clothes have more room for rotations more hair is capture in the tray

@@priscillal5428 Well, the pet pro function already deep fills. That's how it reaches the filter. But, I've noticed a better collection with hair after I made this comment. Again, nowhere near as advertised, but a good half dollar sized clump of hair.

SpeedQueen is by far the most dependable. The 10 year Maytag warranty usually only covers parts that barely ever break. Usually the fine print will tell you that labor will not be covered after a couple years.

The prices came down so much on this set since it first came out. Even at my local Lowe’s. It’s way cheaper than when I first made this video.

let me know how you like the washer. i got a huskie myself and was looking into the machine.

@@RANKOFFALL it’s been good. You need to run deep fill to really pull more fluff out of the washer, and the dryer’s big filter design certainly helps, too. I’m mostly worried about longevity but so far no issues even after my first week of use where I must have ran 10 full loads through both.

I do like the washer so I’d say 8 for the washer and 7 for the dryer. I’d rate the washer even higher if they would stop using commonly failing like the suspension runs. These could be easily fixed, but they continue to use the poor design. The dryer is a good design. I actually really like the filter out the top dryers because they’re easy to work on and the parts are usually not expensive. My big issue with this dryer is there selling points. I’m also not a big fan of pushbutton parts on washers and dryers because they tend to fail a lot faster and when they do, it’s usually replace the entire controller which is it extremely expensive. But honestly, overall, they’re not terrible maybe a little over priced.

@@WasherDryerMoney I'd love to know ASAP since I've not been able to use old washer n dryer for 3 months now. Brands, Model #'s, dyer 7 cubic n washer cubic with extra large tub to match up to dryer load capacity, HE issues on both new sets of brands with what I'm looking for, prefer no panel cuz they are way expensive to replace, longest warranties, longest lasting very well built, unlike many of these new one's that have issues from right away to having to replace them in the 5 yr range. I do love the pet hair capabilities for more than just pet hair reasons. Do you know of any way to get coupons etc to apply towards purchases n best places to buy quality for lowest prices for Extra Lrg Washer Tub to easily wash and dry King Size Bedspreads, 7 cubic Dryer n features like this set, other high quality Brand's with these features and Speed Queen-(which is the brand i really want to buy but can't spend over $1,000. on each) Thank You

Yeah, some of the old Maytag’s were made with such thick metal it’s weird to knock on them. They’re all about pennypinching now, and they make it as thin as possible.

I actually like the washer. I’m glad the price is coming down. The original price was way too much. If you found that you’re not getting a lot of hair out of your clothes using the dryer. Be sure it is not slightly. Stopped up anywhere. Lint buildup is a problem. We all have to deal with, but it is also very dangerous for fires. With pet removal from the dryer, it will be necessary to have practically no air restriction from either lint build up for a bent hose because the amount of air flow passing The clothes is what pulls the hair from the clothes. And even if it’s slightly less airflow, it will dramatically decrease the amount of hair. The driver can remove. Good luck. I also like to hanging clothes out to dry and save some energy.

@@WasherDryerMoney O.M.Gosh! I did it, I went and bought them they were hella cheap at Lowe's the other week. $899 per. Pros Love that I can use my clothes line again because of the amount of hair is negligible after wash. Cons the plastic does feel a little on the cheap side on the dispenser part. All and all the smile on my face when I walk up to the machines says it all. I am over the moon estatic that I bought these.

@@jackew.inindiana7421 what date did you buy, how long you been using them, cubic sizes of each n are they good for washing seems drying king size bedspread and what was their warranty upon purchase and how long n how good n price for the extended warranty? I greatly appreciate your feedback on all these questions very much Please. Thank You

Oh, if you mean, trying to fill it more with that little stream of water, it would take a while. and would have to stand there holding the button. A faster way of doing that would be put a splitter on the water faucet and run a tiny 3 feet hose and fill it with that. That’s actually a common fix for people that don’t like HE water levels.

Well, fabric softener is a bit of a scam, but I'd recommend running a cycle with Affresh.

I’m not 100% sure. I do know that the pet hair removal feature only works in the deeper cycles. because the water has to pour through the higher portion of the agitator.

I don’t have a video about media dryers, but most dryers are the exact same thing. It’s just a drum, a heating element and a fan. Check out this video I made on all the different problems that could be causing no heat. The big difference will be how are you get to the parts in your dryer. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hKmUfaad2ZymoJs.html

Nice. What did you think about the lint trap not actually being any bigger?

Nice

Not sure. I have not noticed that in the one at my store.

@@WasherDryerMoney it’s attached to the filter which the whirlpool filter doesn’t have it but the whirlpool filter fits in the Maytag but the Maytag filter won’t fit the whirlpool due to the metal piece

@@08vtec6 oh, OK now I see what you’re saying. Those extensions are just because the dryers are sometimes taller to match the washers. This makes a void that needs to be filled between the top of the dryer and the standard size lint trap. The filters are exactly the same. It’s just the extender will be slightly different from model to model. There is no difference in how the filter performs with a extender. It’s similar to a ratchet extension doesn’t make it a better ratchet. It just extend it.

Yeah, they make a speed queen classic still. Just like the old one’s. They also have the one you’re talking about with a digital board and lid lock. Some people like it, but I would rather have the speed queen classic.

That definitely doesn’t sound right. I would literally set a timer and time how long it takes and call customer service.

@sallgoodman2323 Is your washer connected to a hot water source, and if so, is that source turned on? Whenever I've used Affresh, it dissolved instantaneously while using hot water.

Yeah, true there’s definitely worse washers.

Not that I’ve noticed.

Oh, I’m not sure.

Still under warranty, but just because it is, doesn’t mean it’s not going to be super frustrating to get them to fix it.

Yeah, you could take it off of your old dryer if you have one. If you’re in an older home, you’re probably going to need a three prong versus a newer home with a fork wrong. Make sure you get the right one.

?

Yeah, definitely the newer machines do not wash like the older machines.

Wow, I can’t believe they didn’t just swap it out for another one. was it shaking hard or making a grinding noise?

@Washer Dryer Money it makes every kind of noise possible. It's so out of balance that it won't go into a high speed spin.

Yeah, it’s true. I thought about mentioning the parts that are on it that are common to fail, but honestly, 99% of washers are made with those parts. So I don’t feel like this ones is any worse or better than what they usually make lol

How do you use them? What do I need to know before I F mine up?

Be sure to check reviews for Samsung washers. They’re not known to be very reliable. But most washers not as reliable as they used to be. But Samsung is kind of know among repair guys to be not dependable.

AMCII may be referencing a frontloader washer regards to "a removable filter in the front." I'm not aware of any Samsung topload washers with a filter but maybe it's a new model (AMCII didn't state his/her model). Anyway, frontloaders have pump protector filters that catch debris from getting into and blocking or damaging the pump. They do not have active filters that catch lint or hair out of the clothes during washing and rinsing.

@@DADoESofTX yeah, I’m not aware of one either. I was actually planning on researching it to see which one he was referring to in a band. I didn’t consider that frontload might be what he is talking about. You have an interesting channel. I saw one of your videos is a shorter video, showing a agitator, that wobbles as it turns. I’ve never seen that. I’ve seen the one that bounces up and down. What machine did that come off of?

Yeah, especially that color. But I did lean it over and it’s mainly the whirlpool style washer underneath.

Putting the clothes in the dryer on air dry for 30 minutes is honestly one of the best tracks. I actually used it today. And you don’t have to buy anything. Other than the power to run the dryer I guess Lol

@@WasherDryerMoney Maybe so, but I don't want to put dirty pet hair in the dryer where clean clothes are going to go, and I'm allergic to Bounce. Basically, this set is the design of the washers and dryers of yesteryear! My mum had that huge top filter on her dryer, and I'm ready to get this because I'm sick of the lint and hair in the Maytag front load washer. It's silly that one can't get to the filter on the washer without tipping it up sideways. Not many folks are able to even attempt it safely!

Make sure it’s on deep cycle as well. One of the better tricks I’ve run across, is putting in the clothes in the dryer on air dry for few minutes before you put it in the washer. Especially extremely hairy clothes. The dry hair comes off in the dryer much easier before it’s wet and stuck to the clothes. Also, I know this seems silly but pet dryer sheets. Remove most static and cling the hair from the clothes in the dryer and make it get in the filter a lot easier.

Be sure the exhaust pipe is not bent. Also check that the line from the wall to the outside of the wall is not stopped up. If there’s air restrictions that could be causing it.

That’s a good idea

I do that too!

Thanks for sharing

What's wrong with the dryer? I love mine. What the washer doesn't get the dryer does

@@priscillal5428 Well our dryer doesn’t dry clothes properly. The clothes are almost always wet, it’s stupid based on how much we spent on it, and there were cheaper options. Also the latch for the washer broke within 6 months and we needed to have it replaced, luckily the warranty covered it.
