Don’t Re-Wash, Maytag Fresh Hold!

By 378 Comments

 

For Challenge #3 of the Maytag Blogger Challenge, my family was sent clothes of different fabrics. The point of this challenge was to try out specific features on the Maytag Maxima XL HE for each item of clothing and remark on the results. After all, clothes come in every shape, size and fabric and thus, should not be washed as if they were all alike.

STOP RIGHT THERE!

So, I must point out right now that in my chaotic days, and just plain laziness {truth}, I had gotten into the habit of washing everything and everything, at once. Using the ‘normal’ setting.

Correction, just for the sake of convenience when putting away the items, I do wash towels, bedding, jackets etc separately. Yet, when it comes to clothing, this isn’t the case. I wash the twins clothes all together, hubbys and my clothes altogether and then my oldest daughters clothes altogether. Fabric, shamabric. You’re going in there regardless of what you are made from. Make friends, you don’t have a choice!

For years forever, I never thought of it. Never cared and certainly didn’t think it would make that much of a difference. 

Hi, I’m Tammi and I’m totally wrong. 

I guess my overall take from this challenge is this: For best results, you should be washing some fabrics separately. Yet, thanks to the Maytag Maxima XL duo, it’s not as hard {or time consuming} as one would believe. In reality, it’s simple. Too simple not to do. The results? AMAZING. 

Let me explain what I’m talking about, and the cycles I used for each fabric…

My girls were each given a 100% cotton t-shirt.

It’s the run-of-the-mill Cotton graphics shirt that is in every one’s closet. It was suggested that I should be washing cotton in a Cold Cycle, using the Maytag 12 Hour Fresh Hold option, then dried on a low-heat setting. 

The Maytag 12 Fresh Hold Cycle: “Keep clothes fresh and start drying right in the washer. Circulating air helps to keep odor or wrinkles from setting in for up to 12 hours after the wash cycle ends. Plus, this option may be selected manually at any time to dry out the interior of the washer.”

Raise your hand if you forget items in the washer for hours {or days}, only to have to re-wash because of smell repulsion and worry over possible mold. Me, Me, Me!!

The fresh hold option on the Maytag Maxima XL HE is what I call ‘the lifesaver option’, since I forget laundry all.the.time. It’s a prevention against re-washing and wasting water and time, this cycle is now used by myself, for each and every load. ‘Cause you never know when you’ll get distracted and forget {ahem, always}.

  • Before, I’d have to re-wash and the fabric would be rough, but whatever, I’d hang it in the closet anyway. As you can see in the video above, my results for cotton clothing was: very fluffy, super soft and smelling really good. Honestly, I didn’t expect to see such a difference at all. It was a real eye-opener for sure, which is why I had to take this test one step further and also washed older clothes to see if they had the same results as new ones. Blown away, people!

For myself, Maytag sent a spandex top.

Wait … how do they know I live in Yoga pants? {eerie music}.

I must point out that I always had a ‘problem’ with my spandex, yet never took the steps to change my routine. Again: busy and lazy. You see, I washed and dried my Spanex with all my other clothing and thus, my yoga pants pilled and caused everything in that load to static. Despite fabric softener, everything had major static. Yep, and I kept on doing it. *hanging head in shame*

For Spandex it was suggested to use the Overnight Wash and Dry Cycle with the 12 Hour Fresh Hold Option with Dynamic Venting Technology.

Right away I was excited since the Overnight Cycle is one of my favorite features of all time. I touched on this in a previous challenge post, yet I love the chance to sing its praises again. As it’s the best cycle ever. Wash and dry while I sleep? Yes, please!

spandex Maytag Maxima XL challenge

  • My findings from this Spandex test, when washing the new shirt along with my old pants? No static, and much softer fabric. Even the old spandex hasn’t been that soft since the day I bought it. Keep in mind, the 12 Hour Fresh Hold tumbles the fabric for hours to keep them at their best. To me, that says a lot of drying which I would only assume meant MORE static. Yet, there wasn’t any at all… Best of all, it’s washed while I sleep, no extra steps required. This even suits my busy/lazy side. Well played Maytag, I’m convinced.

Linen, in the form of cargo pants for hubby.

‘Tis is the season for linen, right? Just like cotton, it’s a thin fabric that is cool and welcome for the Summer months. Yet, this fabric also wrinkles. A lot.

Which brings me to another point, I don’t iron. I know how, my mother taught me as a child. Yet, I hate it and refuse the chore. In fact, I’ve banned myself and the girls from owning anything that requires ironing. Yet, hubby has dress shirts which absolutely need it. So, bless his heart, he does all the ironing himself or takes the items to the dry cleaners for pressing. Even while in Mexico on vacation a couple months ago, he ironed his dress clothes before dinner while I sat back and drank my margarita. True story. 

So, how much does hubby appreciate the Wrinkle Guard on the Maytag Maxima XL dryer? LOADS! {pun intended}.

The challenge for Linen was to wash them on the Delicate Cycle using the Maytag 12 Hour Fresh Hold option, then to use the Wrinkle Guard on the Maytag Maxima XL dryer to get out all the creases.

I stuck hubby’s linen pants into the washer, and then, forgot about them for longer than 12 hours {no surprise there}. While I knew the Fresh hold option would keep them from smelling and going ‘stale’, I was sceptical that the Wrinkle Guard would work on items that were left in the washer for that long. After all, it’s linen – it was born to wrinkle!

  • The wonderful result for the Linen test? Clean, fresh and absolutely wrinkle-free. No ironing by hubby needed at all, even though the pants were in the washer for such a long time. Again, saving time, energy and money since he always took these items for pressing in the past. You need only let the Maytag Dynamic Duo do the job for you. Guess I’m taking over the ‘ironing’ from now on, you’re welcome hubby. Yet guess what? This feature gets bonus points: I can still sit back and watch while sipping my margarita. We both win on this one.

** The many fabrics used in this challenge. Doing laundry with enough time left to play outdoors.**

Going into this part of the challenge, I honestly didn’t think I’d see a remarkable difference. I was so surprised to discover that washing certain fabrics, as intended, really does help to preserve the fabric and thus, make them last longer and look better. Yet you need to be equipped to get that job done.

Thanks to the smart features of the Maytag Maxima XL washer and dryer, cleaning all those different fabrics properly doesn’t come with the sacrifice of burden nor time. So, they’re actually attainable results, even for those that forget their laundry in the washer for longer than they should.

It’s as easy as pushing a button and walking away {and forgetting about it}. Even I can do that!

  1. The washer/dry would. The amount of washing I get though is amazing. Twenty Towels, five lots of bed sheets and duvet covers. Plus with a family of 5, endless amounts of clothes that is just 3 days washing.

  2. the allergy and the over-night wash and dry, I do try to wash when hydro suggests to wash and dry but sometimes I get tired and it doesnt get done on time

  3. Oh Tammi…..I couldn’t have said it better. I too have been constantly guilting of starting a load and then completely spacing on it …… the fresh hold option would be fabulous…..just a busy Mom’s dream come true!!!! All your posts have left me really daydreaming about Maytag…hehe

  4. I like the steam Sanitize option – I work in a hospital and go to the gym – so I am exposed to lots of germs and lots of sweat 🙂 heh

  7. The fresh hold is a must-have, not an option, wow. loved your posts Tammy and like I said in my email to you last week, our washer died and we have since bought these to let you know. you are so right, especially this feature and the overnight. so excited, they are wonderful and I like doing laundry now, so easy.

  15. I’m good at getting the laundry into the washer, but it’s often hours later til I get to it – the Fresh Hold and Wrinkle Guard would be amazing!

  16. I just broke the espresso side of my coffee pot that I used as a one cup coffee maker 🙁 Thank you for the opportunity!!

  17. The overnight wash and dry feature is phenomenal! i am so guilty of late night washing trying to stay up to put it in the dryer.. epic fail all the time. 🙂 thank you!

    Reply

  19. Because we have a top loader I no longer do the laundry – too far to reach to the bottom – so any feature of a front loader would be wonderful to have again but I do like the Fresh hold option. When I had a front loader I used to put the laundry on before going to work and hanging it out when I got back which was usually 12 hours later – because my husband constantly forgot to check if any washing had been done

    Reply

  20. I would like it if it folded the laundry and put it away – BUT since it doesn’t I like the Auto Refresh Steam Cycle function. I forget laundry in the dryer from time to time… I don’t know how I manage to walk away without hitting that damn button but I do. *sigh*.

  21. The steam Sanitize option would be awesome as i run a dyahome and the germs are everywhere and littel ones put everything in the mouths!

  25. I like the Overnight Wash and Dry feature and the Allergen Removal Washer Cycle!

    I don’t do as much laundry now as I did when I was raising 4 girls many years ago 🙂

  28. Wow, I would love the 12 hr fresh option! I’m constantly re-washing! I’m not in the market for a new laundry team, but after reading these posts, well…I might be!

  29. I do laundry just about every day. I actually don’t mind doing it. I just hate putting it away LOL.

    The Fresh hold cycle sounds awesome. I always forget clothes in there. Then I have to rewash if its been too long.

  30. I have a Samsung steam washer and find that my clothes come out pretty wrinkled, but when I throw delicates in the steam dryer they come out nice and pressed. Never tried a Maytag though.

    Reply

  31. The overnight cycle would help me most..not only for when we do laundry at night while we sleep (which is often)…but also for long days when we pop in a load before we head out somewhere for the day.

    Reply

  32. I love that it stores enough detergent for 12 loads and dispenses the correct amount for each load. I hate measuring laundry detergent so that would help me a lot!

    Reply

  33. Would absolutely love the linen cycle, I hate to do ironing. My machine is relatively new but things still come out with wrinkles. This washer sounds like I machine I might be in love with!

    Reply

  37. The overnight wash and dry cycle would help our laundry out! Ever since we had kids, we seem to always forget our laundry in the washer and it becomes musky smelling.

    Reply

  38. The overnight wash and dry. My husband is always saying “can you get my laundry for me so I’ll have it for work in the morning”. Umm, get it yourself…tomorrow 🙂

    Reply

  42. I work 12-16 hour shifts. I often come home, put a load of laundry in & fall asleep by accident. I wake up & my clothes are still in the washer, wet. I don’t have time to dry them. Or, like you, I leave them in the washer for days & forget.. until I smell mildew. The fresh option would be GREAT for me.

    Reply

  47. Now that hubby & I are both retired…we live in 100% cotton t-shirts and jeans (shorts in the summer) I would love washing our cotton in a Cold Cycle, using the Maytag 12 Hour Fresh Hold option, then dried on a low-heat setting.

    Reply

  50. I think the Overnight Wash and Dry Cycle with the 12 Hour Fresh Hold Option with Dynamic Venting Technology would be the best feature for our household! Some days I’m great with laundry, other days… poor laundry sits in the washer most of the day!!

    Reply

  51. How did you know I leave my wet laundry in the washer WAY TOO LONG? Hate that. Sounds like your new washer takes care of that problem, though, love it!

    Reply

  54. The Maytag 12 Fresh Hold Cycle would help me the most. I’m continually forgetting about clothes in the washer and have to re-wash them the next day……. or so…… again. 🙂

    Reply

  59. I really like the hold feature…so many times the laundry has been left in the machine long enough to wrinkle and then I need to rewash to try and get the wrinkles out…this feature is amazing!

    Reply

  60. Overnight wash and dry! I love this washer and dryer. Can’t wait until we get our place and this will be in my laundry room 😀

    Reply

  62. Without question, the overnight wash and dry is the top feature for me – what a time-saver! With four kids and a hubby who changes more often than I do, there is always laundry to be done and this would make it so much easier!

    Reply

  63. grrr. I don’t know how many times I’ve had clothes come out so wrinkled. I don’t have time to iron, and I HATE to iron. Also, I hang alot of clothes to dry to avoid the static. I have to hang them to dry, then throw them in later for a few minutes with a fabric softener sheet to avoid the static. I could go on but enough of my whining.

  65. We live in an apartment building with shared laundry, so honestly, just having our own washer and dryer would be a lifesaver. Beyond that, I love the overnight feature!

    Reply

  66. Clothes left in the washer that don’t start to get stinky—-its like somebody has been crawling around in my head now if they could please invent self sweeping floors!

    Reply

  69. definitely the SoundGuard! I rarely get “quiet” around the house because of the kids and the dog and when they are out, I do the laundry. So it would be nice to have a quiet house for once!

    Reply

  70. Everything is getting so technical. I could never figure out the different things to do to get results. I wash everything in cold except whites which I wash in hot. Add 2 bounce dryer sheets to take out excess wrinkles.

  75. I don’t have a lot of laundry, there’s just three of us, but I do like the “Overnight Wash and Dry Cycle with the 12 Hour Fresh Hold Option with Dynamic Venting Technology” option.

  164. I have forgotten the laundry in the washer for 2 days. I have also gone in the laundry room to put on another load, added the detergent, set the water level and time, then came back after the full cycle to transfer the clothes from the washer to the dryer only to lift the lid to find nothing in there, absolutely nothing. Not a thing.

  299. It was around 2-3 days when I had the flu and couldn’t get out of bed. I had a hard time getting the nasty smell from the washer and clothes in it after that.

  300. I accidentally forgot a load of kids laundry in the front load while we went on a weekend hockey trip — 3 days!. Eww. or I should say… Pew,… It took many washes and various wash additives (crystals, etc..) to get the odour under control.

  354. Probably a whole weekend. I try to get all the laundry done by the time my husband comes home from work on Friday. If I haven’t finished, it will sit until the weekend is over because by then I’ve forgotten about it.

  359. I wash a load of laundry almost everyday, so they don’t stay in the washer or dryer for very long. Thanks for having this contest.

  360. It’s really very difficult in this full of activity life to listen news on TV, thus I only use the web for that
    reason, and take the newest news.

  361. Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just
    your articles? I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything.
    Nevertheless just imagine if you added some great images or video clips to give your posts more, “pop”!

    Your content is excellent but with images and clips, this
    blog could undeniably be one of the best in its field.
    Excellent blog!
