Is a Maytag still a Maytag
The wife's Maytag drier just bit the big one, it is eleven years old and probably isn't worth a service call, so we are probably going drier shopping later today. I think this is our third set of Maytag's in 46 years, they just seemed to run almost forever without any problems. They always cost more but seemed to be worth it. Now since the buyout, takeover, whatever happened to Maytag, is a Maytag still worth the extra cost or are they just a rebagged sometning else that isn't worth the extra cost? Frank.

Is a Maytag still a Maytag
I probably kinda went against the grain here but there is a new Maytag humming away as I write this. I'm supposed to be retired but it seems time is always at a premium around here so going drier shopping today just wasn't going to happen. I called the Maytag dealer we have done business with since forever at about 9:30 AM he recommended a model 5801, I said bring it, at 11:30 the delevery men left with my check for 495.00 and the Mrs. is drying clothed again. Frank.

Is a Maytag still a Maytag
It's kind of hard for us old guys to accept the throw away mentality of todays world. Yes the clothes are dry, the wife is happy, supper smells good, what else counts? I filled out the mail in warranty card a bit ago, they always ask for your income category which I never fill in. I always wondered that if I would mark my income as 100,000.00 or more if they would call and tell me I could have afforded better stuff. Frank.

Is a Maytag still a Maytag
Even living less than a hundred miles from the Maytag plant in Newton, Ia. I really never kept up on what happed far as why they were bought out or even who bought them, that is why I asked the initial question about a Maytag still being a Maytag. Kinda on the light side, when I mentioned to the Mrs. about maybe looking at sometning other than a Maytag I got a reply something like take a hike fella it's gonna be a Maytag. I looked around the house later in the day on Saturday and the only two brands of anything we own are Maytag and Amanna. I remember something similar happening to Amana a while back, so in the same tone, is an Amanna still an Amanna? Frank.
