The Beat Goes On – Three Months of Effortless Laundry with Maytag Bravos

Having had my Maytag Bravos XL High Efficiency Top Load Washer and Steam Dryer for nearly three months now, I can attest to the ease they bring to my life. Washer/dryer duos I’ve had in the past never quite lived up to expectations – featuring odd kinks or mechanical quirks that I learned to simply work around. Whether faced with a certain wash cycle that just didn’t work, a dryer that only ran when switched to the 70-minute marker, or a spin cycle that may or may not drain completely, I never had a faultless experience.

Until the Maytag Bravos XL High Efficiency Top Load Washer and Steam Dryer made their way down my driveway. I find that these appliances allow me to simply toss laundry in – and then forget about it, with no special adjustments, worries, or looming crises. Everything works as it should, and I’m free to focus on other tasks, rather than problem-solving each time I do a load of laundry.

I’ve also come to appreciate the energy-efficient qualities of the Maytag Bravos. The wash cycles uses 76% less water and cleans better and faster than previous machines I’ve owned. Plus, with two kids arriving home soon from college for winter break – and inevitably loaded down with dirty laundry – I expect my new washer and dryer to get quite the workout over the coming weeks. And yet I have no expectations of higher utility costs or concerns over water usage.

Even though my washer and dryer will most likely run non-stop over the holidays, I have zero concerns. With the Maytag Bravos laundry duo, the days of fussing over large loads and delicately fidgeting with my washer and dryer have become a thing of the past.
