Customer Reviews
This unit looks great and works really well. The doors work smoothly and quietly. The control panel is simple to apply and we were capable of use it instantly and not using a problems in using the fundamental functions. More advanced functions really also are easy to exploit after reading the owners manual. We just use the features that we want. The oven came with 3 racks upper and a pair of lower. There’s an optional alf rack that ships with some ovens but not ours.
We opted for the immaculate unit and it has its usual stainless fingerprint issues. The convection on top automatically converts the temp or time for baking and you may bake 3 racks without delay. Here’s the 1st oven we owned that the broil worked because it contains a 6 pass broil element. Not more burned spots at the french bread. The unit will shut itself off automatically after 12 hours. And there are a lot other features at the control panel.
One suprise was when a small cooling fan kicked on during oven operation. It really is normal and is mentioned inside the owners manual. It helps keep the control panel and cabinet cool. I had wondered how Maytag was keeping a double oven livable in a normal wall oven cabinet without the “this thing can get your cabinet fairly warm warning”. This cooling fan is a PLUS and will were mentioned as a feature and never as an afterthought.
The unit was packed okay and quite frankly i used to be suprised to peer how well it was protected. It is reassuring to peer that Maytag didn’t skimp during this area as this offers a decent first impression. The oven requires a 220V 40A circuit. Maytag recommended dimensions for the cupboard are spot on and the unit fits o.k. into the wall cabinet.
Installation in all fairness easy. Maytag recommends removing the doors for installation. This isn’t a nasty idea because the unit weighs over 200 lb. I left the doors on as I had a platform for the oven to slip into the cupboard. Pull the oven back out about 2 inches and install the lower trim piece. Push the oven back in, open one oven door after which install the trim screws within the sides (2 both sides). Don’t overtighten these screws. Do the identical for the opposite door.

Maytag Double wall oven door glass shattered over the weekend. Nobody was around thank goodness and it was not on for over 24-48 hours. Model # MEW6630DDW purchased from Menards. i bought the 4 year extended warranty but they claim the glass is not really covered. i’ve got found other claims of this happening to others and therefore it’s a defect of the oven and Maytag must be liable for the repairs and any warranty need to be covered because it is a defect of the oven.
Maytag double wall oven with two logic board failures in 9 years: 2 X $400=$800 to repair.
My family owns a double wall oven greatly like this one. It’s kind of older, however the model number is close: MEW6630CAS. It was a dear oven in 2001 and we hoped we were acquiring a strong and reliable tool for our family kitchen. Unfortunately, we’ve needed to fix the digital display twice since we got this oven, at over $400 for every fix. The 1st fix was in 2005 and the last fix was last month, in 2010. Besides the initial cost of the oven, then, we now have spent over $800 simply to be capable to read the elemental information of time, temperature, etc. of the oven.
Obviously, once we acquired the oven, we never suspected we might have to spend over $800 dollars simply to have the capacity to read the displays. It is a huge hidden cost and, we predict, points to a significant problem with the design and the parts used to fix this product.
We contacted Maytag first by email, then by phone. Maytag representatives simply said that the oven is out of guaranty and that there is nothing which are done. We’re realistic concerning the lifespan of goods, and we absorbed the price of the 1st expensive fix to our Maytag oven without complaint. However, the necessity to fix the oven a second time motivated us to invite for Maytag to atone for at the least the second one fix.
We wrote a letter to Maytag, to the Director of Consumer Care, Maytag. Her office (not her) responded by calling us and all they did was repeat the truth that the oven was out of guaranty. i’m wondering if the makers of the Ford Pinto repeated that their defective cars were out of guaranty!
In short: Maytag oven is a terrible product, with multiple failures of digital display, an enormous fix cost ($800 and counting) and a firm that refuses to follow best practices and get up for his or her customers. We’re done with Maytag.

All my maytag appliances have issues, but it is the foremost severe and threatening issue,….the oven goes nuclear in the course of the cook cycle and shoots up over 500 degrees! After all this happened after the guaranty expired but there need to have been a recall for any such dangerous issue. Such a lot for the dependability people. Won’t ever buy Maytag again, or anything from any company that owns Maytag.
