A Large-Capacity Smart Washer with Maytag Cleaning Power
The Maytag MHW8630HW 27-inch front-load washer combines a generous 5.8 cu. ft. capacity, the Extra Power function, and smart connectivity to deliver powerful, versatile cleaning. Designed to tackle tough stains while caring for your clothes, it handles large loads while helping simplify your laundry routine.
Featuring the 24-hour Fresh Hold® option, an automatic detergent dispenser, and steam wash functions, this washer provides a complete laundry experience. Wi-Fi connectivity also lets you monitor and control cycles remotely from a compatible mobile device.
Extra Power for Tough Stains
The Extra Power function enhances cleaning performance by combining two water temperatures during the same cycle. Some stains dissolve more easily in hot water, while others respond better to cold water. This technology helps treat both types of stains in the same load.
Available with any wash cycle, Extra Power provides additional cleaning power for heavily soiled clothing, thick fabrics, and loads requiring more intensive treatment.
24-Hour Fresh Hold® Option to Help Keep Clothes Fresh
Don't have time to transfer your clothes to the dryer right away? The 24-hour Fresh Hold® option helps keep them fresh for up to 24 hours after the wash cycle ends.
An internal fan and intermittent tumbling circulate air through clean clothes to help reduce the development of unpleasant odours. This function provides greater flexibility when managing laundry around your schedule.
Optimal Dose Dispenser for Up to 8 Loads
The Optimal Dose dispenser simplifies laundry preparation by automatically dispensing the appropriate amount of detergent at the right time during the wash cycle.
Its reservoir holds enough detergent for up to 8 loads, reducing the need to measure and add detergent before every wash.
5.8 cu. ft. Capacity for Large Loads
With its 5.8 cu. ft. I.E.C. capacity, this Maytag washer provides ample space for large loads of clothing and bulky items. According to the manufacturer, it can accommodate up to 31 terry towels in a single load.
Its stainless steel wash basket and direct-drive motor are designed to deliver lasting performance and meet the laundry needs of busy households.
Steam Power for Deep Cleaning
The steam cleaning option allows steam to penetrate deep into fabric fibres to enhance cleaning performance and help remove tough stains.
It can be combined with the Extra Power function or used with select wash cycles to improve cleaning results based on the needs of your clothing.
Sanitize Cycle for Thorough Cleaning
The Sanitize cycle uses the highest water temperature available on the washer to eliminate up to 99.9% of common household bacteria, according to manufacturer testing.
This function provides an additional solution for thoroughly cleaning items requiring special care, including towels and everyday clothing.
Quick Wash in Just 15 Minutes
The Quick Wash cycle cleans small, lightly soiled loads in just 15 minutes, based on a 3 lb load. It uses a high spin speed to efficiently extract water from clothes before they are transferred to the dryer.
For items requiring special care, the Wrinkle Control cycle combines warm water with a reduced spin speed to help prevent wrinkles.
Smart Washer with Wi-Fi Connectivity
With Wi-Fi connectivity and the Maytag app, this washer allows you to manage several functions remotely from a compatible smartphone or tablet.
You can remotely start or stop a cycle when the function is enabled, receive end-of-cycle notifications, and get alerts when the detergent dispenser needs to be refilled.
The app also provides personalized clothing-care tips, a stain guide, and diagnostic tools to help identify and resolve certain operating issues.
Smart scheduling lets you select the time you want your load to be finished. The washer then automatically determines the appropriate time to start the cycle so your clothes are ready according to your schedule.
Advanced Vibration Control™ Plus
The Advanced Vibration Control™ Plus system automatically redistributes unbalanced loads using a ball-bearing balancing ring and a six-point suspension system.
Advanced software analyzes washer operation and adjusts settings from one load to the next to help reduce vibration and maintain stable operation during wash and spin cycles.
Durable Design with a 10-Year Limited Warranty
Maytag Commercial Technology includes a direct-drive motor and stainless steel wash basket designed to withstand everyday use. Both components are backed by a 10-year limited parts warranty, subject to the manufacturer's terms and conditions.
The washer can be installed side by side with a compatible dryer or stacked using the appropriate stacking kit to optimize available space in your laundry room.
