Maytag MFD2560HES

Would love a cool drink of lemonade however i cannot have one because my lovely maytag keeps breaking down and have just found out after many visits by different engineers who fitted everything thing except the kitchen sink but guess what i now have a problem with my compressor and maytag(whirlpool)engineers cannot or should i say are not qualified to regas appliance what a sorry state anyway a local service company in london agsrefrigeration attended and found that it was'nt the compressor which was faulty but the condenser fan motor which they replaced saving me hundreds of pounds i wonder how many other people have being mislead by these idiots. Wont be buying on of these metal mickeys again.

spent £2000 on our Maytag/Amano side by side, american fridge freezer. It failed after just 15 months, ruined £200 of food, as the unit actually heated! thought we were just very unlucky, paid nearly £300 to have it fixed, thought we were just unlucky.

Now another 4 years down the line, the Freezer and the Fridge have packed up, Terrible customer service, only interested in selling extended warranties, they can not grasp that its unacceptable for a supposedly premium item to fail twice in a matter of a few years.

Am now having the decision of do I just get rid of this, or pay to get it fixed, knowing that its only a matter of time before something else goes wrong with it.

Very, very upsetting considering we had fridge/freezers in the past that have lasted 20 years with no problems, as have our friends and family.

YOU DONT GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR WITH MAYTAG..... THE ONLY GOOD VALUE ITEM IS THE EXTENDED WARRANTY...... YOU'LL NEED IT !!!

First the doors kept dropping, then the seals went. The final straw is the plastic finish on the exterior has worn back to the metal. This fridge was afforded the TLC of the previous one that lasted 25 years. Don't buy one!

Bought in 2005 & never had any issues. From what I'm reading here has to be a small percentage.

I just was looking up the filter and decided to read these reviews and can't believe what I see. Let me say again, We NEVER had ANY issues with ours!! Still working 24/7 as great as ever. Can't think of a single flaw. Just now looked it over up & down, inside out...perfect! VERY happy!!!

Never had to service before...so, 5 stars it is!

Our first issue was compressor when it was just out of warranty at 4 years old. I called Maytag and let them know how unhappy we were. We ended up getting a compressor for free. It seems like this is a normal problem for this unit. They didn't even seem fazed that it was broken or we were out of warranty and one needed to be sent. If i'd had to pay it would've been around $300 for the part plus labor $300 not to mention initial diagnosis visit by service repairman that was a $150 so in all it cost us $450 to fix a 4 year old fridge instead of $700.

don't do it!! My freezer kept defrosting, then suddenly it started working again, then it went again and now it has broken.. Now my fridge has died.. There are better ones on the market!! shop around

Do not buy this refrigerator. Our compressor broke right when ours was out of warranty, which is $600-$1000 to replace. Customer service is not helpful at all, even when I spoke with a supervisor. After my experience and reading all of the broken compressor complaints, I will never choose a Maytag product again.

I wish I had known how bad Maytag were before I bought my Fridge Freezer.

I have a GC2225GEK8 sid-by-side American Fridge Freezer in brushed steel.

Don't buy Maytag unless you purchase an extended guarantee from the reseller.

Fridges have a design fault where heater / damper unit causes fridge to freeze, can be fixed by retrofit of modified heater / damper unit, Condensor also broke within 4 years. 2 faults in 4 years for 2.5k fridge, with very poor customer service from Whirlpool UK. Best left alone - I am sticking with the Germans next time Siemens or Gaggenau

Just look this fridge up on Google you'll see that a lot of people have had compressor problems ..and i won't even start on Maytags service or lack of ..enough said, wouldn't recommend buying this fridge

15 - 20 years is the expected life of refrigerators. Ours lasted 6. The repairman said that it happens often. He recommended that I just replace it, but no, I thought, "I paid over $2000.00 for this baby, I'm getting it repaired. Coming close to $1000 in repairs and it has once again died. The compressor, the fan, the compressor again. Each part breaks 2 weeks after the guarantee expires.

I bought a Maytag because the one we had previously lasted almost 30 years. What a sad change.
