Our take on the Maytag MTW4205SW 28 inch Top Load Washer

The Maytag MTW4205SW is a 4.2 cu. ft. top-load washer built around a Power agitator with 360-degree wash action and a Deep Fill option for soaking heavy, stained loads. It keeps controls simple with a three-knob console and adds a Sanitize cycle, two Extra Rinse options and a 30-minute Quick Wash for small loads. It suits households that want old-school agitator cleaning and few electronics to fail, and it trades the flexibility of a front loader or a HE impeller machine for stronger mechanical agitation and a 10-year limited parts warranty on the drive motor and stainless basket.

About the Maytag MTW4205SW 28 inch Top Load Washer

The Maytag MTW4205SW is a 4.2 cu. ft. top load washer with a Power Agitator that uses a 360-degree wash action to keep clothes moving and break up stains. The Deep Fill Option adds more water to saturate loads, and two Extra Rinse options rinse away messes and detergent. Auto Sensing adjusts the water level for each load.

It has 10 wash cycles and a 3-knob console. The Quick Wash cycle cleans small, lightly soiled loads in 30 minutes, based on a 3-lb load. The Cold Wash cycle performs like a warm water wash when compared to the Normal cycle. The tub holds enough to wash 18 towels at once.

The wash basket is stainless steel. The drive motor and stainless steel wash basket are covered by a 10-year limited parts warranty. The washer is assembled in Clyde, Ohio. A Clean Washer with affresh cycle cleans the inside of the machine, using an affresh tablet or liquid chlorine bleach. Run it about every 30 washes.

Questions and answers

How does the Power agitator compare with an impeller washer?
The agitator moves clothes through a 360-degree wash action, which tends to clean heavy stains better than an impeller plate. The trade-off is more water use and rougher handling of delicates.
What does the Deep Fill option do?
It adds water beyond the automatic level so bulky or heavily soiled loads are fully submerged. The deepest setting is tied to the Bulky Items cycle.
How fast is the Quick Wash cycle?
It cleans small, lightly soiled loads in about 30 minutes using extra-high spin speeds. Maytag rates it on a 3-lb load.
Does it have a sanitize cycle?
Yes. The Sanitize cycle uses higher wash temperatures to reduce bacteria on towels, bedding and similar loads.
What does the warranty cover?
Maytag offers a 10-year limited parts warranty on the drive motor and stainless steel wash basket. The rest of the machine carries the standard limited coverage.
Is 4.2 cu. ft. enough for a family?
It handles a king-size comforter and typical family loads. Very large households washing multiple bulky items daily may want a larger drum.
