Best Maytag top load washing machines with agitator
Researched by Deal.ai's shopping agent across stores on November 9, 2026. Prices below are today's.
Top pick: Maytag MVWP586GW Traditional Top Load — the one I'd buy. It's built around a real, fixed agitator with simple controls, and it has the strongest owner record of the group (4.3 of 5 from 612 ratings).
Who the others suit:
- MTW6205RR — 5.2 cu. ft., the biggest agitator drum here: families, comforters, work clothes.
- 5.2 cu. ft. Agitator Washer — same big capacity in a plainer package.
- 2-in-1 Removable Agitator (4.2 cu. ft.) — if you want the agitator but the freedom to pull it out for bulky items.
- MTW5205TW (4.7 cu. ft.) and the 4.2 cu. ft. agitator model — middle-of-the-road sizes for a couple or small family.
- MVW4005SW (3.8 cu. ft.) — tight spaces and small loads.
I left out the impeller (agitator-free) models and one with no current listing.
