Product Features
Pet Pro option
The Pet Pro option uses a no-heat, extended dry time to lift pet hair from clothes and capture it in the XL lint trap.
Steam Refresh cycle
Built to reduce wrinkles, the Steam Refresh cycle quickly revives clothes without the need for a full wash cycle.
Drum light
The drum light gives a clear view of laundry for quick unloading.
American Pride
We take pride in building strong, reliable appliances for your home. These dryers are proudly assembled by hard-working employees in Marion, Ohio.
An American company for over 100 years
Whirlpool Corporation started in 1911 as a small company in Benton Harbor, Michigan. Today we are a global home appliance business selling products around the world. We are proud of our American heritage and ingenuity that have driven innovation for over 100 years.
10-year limited parts warranty on the drive motor and drum
We don’t just tell you a Maytag® dryer will get your clothes dry for years: we confidently back our dryers with a 10-year limited parts warranty on the drive motor and drum.
XL lint trap
This XL lint trap is built to trap and remove loads of pet hair.
Steam-enhanced dryer
Steam-enhanced dryers harness the power of steam to help prevent wrinkles and refresh clothes—even on deserted loads.
Wrinkle Prevent option
Don’t worry about forgetting to take laundry out of the dryer. The Wrinkle Prevent option tumbles clothes for up to 150 minutes after the cycle ends to help prevent wrinkles from forming.
Moisture Sensing
Two sensors closely monitor inside moisture and air temperatures to deliver the right results without the decision making. When loads are evenly dry and air reaches ideal temperatures, the cycle stops, helping prevent over- and under-drying.
Wrinkle Control cycle
The Wrinkle Control cycle uses lower temperatures and defaults to using the Wrinkle Prevent option to help minimize wrinkles.
Quick Dry cycle
The Quick Dry cycle dries small loads fast. Clothes will be ready before you know it when paired with the Quick Wash cycle.
7.0 cu. ft. capacity
Dry large loads with a spacious 7.0 cu. ft. capacity.
End of cycle signal
Avoid forgotten laundry with the end of cycle signal so finished loads aren't left behind.

It’s new and everything works. Coming from an old dryer that had to be run forever, We load this beast (7.0 cu.ft.), tap the temp button and forget it.

Quiet effective. And dries like it's supposed to. Really enjoying it
Stevehry01/05/2026 07:23 AM
I got ours 6 mounts ago works great. Economical too. Matag is the best the engineers should make a better connection system for the exhaust and something that locks in place. Clamps could be quick locking type. Instead of clamps. Design team make me one.mine is a short run and falls off when you move it. Still Matag is the best. Highly recommended by all my family.

Excellent appliance. Works as it should. Beautiful.

I am very happy with this dryer. It’s very self explanatory but I do have a print out pdf of the default settings for each option and the length of time it takes to complete cycle. The sensors work great and I get an excellent finish to each load.

Very efficient, great at pet hair removal as we have 2 border collies and a long haired cat.

My favorite feature is the setting which senses when the clothes are done … no more guessing and opening the door over again!
Presavila11/28/2025 12:04 AM
It is great. I love tge refresh cycle. The lint catcher is not so great. A lot of lint falls off onto the top

We've had our washer and dryer for almost two months now and buying Maytag was a great choice. No issues, great quality, and sturdy. Everything we wanted for our new home.
JO202511/25/2025 03:01 AM
Bought about a month ago and am very happy with it. Drys clothes including towels in a reasonable time not like my old one. Love the features on it especially the pet pro.

Bought this set about a month ago and we love it, our old set was a Maytag and we had it since 2012! Great products!
Jr2025!11/17/2025 06:18 AM
The pet function on the dryer does work quite well, it has lifted pet hair off of clothes during the process.
