The Maytag Bravos Washing Machines are three cosmetically different versions of the same appliance that was developed by the New Zealand appliance company, Fisher & Paykel.

They are Belt Driven Washer Models. Belkin 4 port hub driver. This guide is for the magnetically 'stator drive' washing machine models.

Most energy saving washers are front-loading and very mechanically complicated, however, this water saving washing machine operates without a transmission, motor coupling, belt, drive tube, clutch or break assembly. Instead this washer uses a magnetic DC stator motor to operate either the impeller or agitator for the wash portion of the cycle (depending on the washer model) then during the spin cycle, the washer's motor spins the inner tub between 800 and 1100 Revolutions per minute (RPM) without the use of a transmission or clutch. It's like a magnetic bullet train to Cleansville.

My first encounter with this washing machine design was at Whirlpool repair training in San Diego California just before the washer was introduced. I was immediately impressed with the simplicity of its design and the ease diagnosis and repair. Now that a few years have passed since this washer's introduction, it has become more apparent that the control board of this washing machine is fairly prone to failure. The washer's main sub seal is also common to leak, leading to rusted and loud spin bearings. The customer feed back concerning the washer's ability to clean clothes is mixed.

Because of its huge wash capacity and simple mechanical design I highly recommend this washer style as a good energy saving washer alternative to the much more problematic front loading washing machine designs with at least two control boards and complicated inner washer mechanics. However, impeller models are probably best used in light duty cleaning situations. If you are an auto mechanic or farmer you may want to buy an agitator model.

Tips & Tricks for the Maytag Bravos Washing Machines.

1. Easy On The Bleach

Even though your washing machine may have a bleach dispenser that doesn't mean you must use it! Bleach and bleach vapors greatly contribute to washing machine rust and corrosion. If you want your washer to last as long as possible use a plastic tub or something similar to bleach clothing, then rinse with cold water to avoid bleach vapors.

2. Gumming Up The works

Don't wash floor rugs with rubber backing in your fancy washing machine! The backing will flake off and plug the recirculation pump and/or drain pump causing you grief and costing you money!

3. Rolling in the Sheets

Fitted sheets can sometimes turn into a large heavy ball as they collect other items inside themselves during the wash cycle; this ball is nearly impossible to balance at 1000 RPM. Solution…don't wash fitted sheets with heavy items like towels or blankets, and stay close while the cycle is active so you can stop the cycle and readjust the load if necessary. As a general rule towels should only be washed with other towels and heavy items that can be properly balanced. If you wash a bunch of shirts with on big towel the load will go off balance almost every time.

4. Wash your Washer

Funky smelling clothes coming from an appliance designed to clean clothes doesn't make much sense, and also wont get you much action. Afresh washing machine cleaning tablets.

5. The Right Stuff

Use HE (High Efficiency) soap. Yes it is more expensive but you will also be using less soap so it's a wash :) Not using HE soap will cause error codes, dirty clothes, bad tub bearings (very expensive fix) and other problems.

6. Model Mimicry

Some lower end Maytag Bravos Washing Machines first released in 2010 do not have the same mechanical design as the stator washing machines I discussed in this guide, even though cosmetically they look almost identical. These 'belt drive models' have several common problems but most are easy to fix if you can troubleshoot the cause of the washer error. Almost all Maytag Bravos top load washers between 300.00 and 700.00 will have this same belt driven mechanical style.. I hate deceptive marketing practices! (buy the cheaper one!)
