Maytag/Whirlpool Complaint - Bravo Washer and Dryer Are Junk - What Service?

Posted by Venice09 on 2011-11-11:

I hope you are taking this out on Maytag and not your husband. :)

People do seem to hate Bravo and Cabrio washers. That's why it pays to do some research before purchasing. I know what it's like to be stuck with a washing machine that doesn't work the way it should.

It the washer is still under warranty, keep calling for service. Hold Maytag accountable for selling you junk. Don't give up. Persistance can pay off.

That's frustrating that you're unhappy with the units. Bravos are actually pretty well rated by a lot of the consumer publications. It is true the the H.E. systems usually take a little longer to wash, but drying times are significantly less and you're able to wash two to three times the amount of laundry within one batch.

Have you checked with a different service center to see if they can get someone out any sooner?

"you're able to wash two to three times the amount of laundry within one batch."

Not according to the OP, who states "It takes twice a long to do the laundry because you can only do a quarter of the load. So for 5 tshirts, 3 nightgowns and two pairs of shorts, it takes almost an hour to wash."

My standard washing machine could handle that load easily, and everything would be clean in 30 minutes or less.
