BENTON HARBOR, Mich., Oct. 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Whether it's a little one's muddy pants, or a blouse that caught last night's red wine, Maytag® brand knows that life can create some tough stains. That's why the new Maytag® Top Load Washer and Dryer deliver powerful cleaning and are packed with features to help laundry rookies and experts alike clean up whatever comes their way.  

Common stains like grass and dirt can be hard to remove, but with the Best Cleaning in its class*, the new Top Load Washer treats pesky stains in one wash thanks to the PowerWash® system that uses PowerSpray optimal dispensers and the PowerWash Cycle® . There's also no more waiting around for clothes to dry with the industry-exclusive PowerDry cycle that provides optimal airflow to power out moisture in clothes and get tough loads completely dried faster.**

"When piles of laundry with grimy stains pile up, stress levels are bound to rise— but the right washer and dryer can help individuals make these tough jobs an easier feat," says Brendan Bosch, Maytag senior brand manager. "Maytag brand's new Top Load Laundry pair models come from Ohio and arm families with powerful features and are better-built to help fight stains from every season, year after year."

• Extra Large Capacity Top Load Large Washer
  • PowerWash® system removes everyday tough stains in a single wash using PowerSpray, optimal dispensers for the Best Cleaning in its class*
  • Power™ Impeller delivers exceptional cleaning  with a reverse wash motion and triple action spray that keeps clothes thoroughly saturated throughout the cycle
• Extra-Large Capacity Dryer
  • Deep Clean with Steam option makes bothersome stains a thing of the past by giving clothes a longer, more active soaking time with a heated steam for stains that have settled into clothing
  • PowerDry is an industry-exclusive cycle that gets the toughest loads completely dried faster** and works harder to provide outstanding airflow to power out moisture in clothes
  • Steam Refresh reduces wrinkles by using a fine mist in the heated dryer drum to refresh clothes with steam as they tumble
  • Extra-large capacity is designed to tackle the largest loads, powerful enough to move mountains of laundry, with 8.8 cu. ft., it has the space to clean 26 towels at once

Baseball fans can also see the Maytag® Top Load Washer, with the power to clean the filthiest of big league stains on display in four Major League Baseball parks this fall - those of the Atlanta Braves, Chicago White Sox, Kansas City Royals and Texas Rangers. As part of a relationship between Maytag brand and MLB, a Maytag® Top Load Washer is installed in the bullpen or outfield stands of these teams' stadiums and remains in place for the rest of the regular season and the postseason. If a player, either from the home or visiting team, hits a home run and the ball lands inside the washer, Maytag brand will donate $1 million to the local Boys & Girls Clubs in that city, a long-standing partner of the brand.

The Maytag® Top Load Washer and Dryer are available now at retailers nationwide in metallic slate and white, with a starting MSRP of $1,199 each†  . This laundry pair comes with a 10-year limited parts warranty on the drive motor and drum, making Maytag brand the only major appliance brand to offer coverage for key components in every new model for ten years.
