This may help. Please note, this is a Maytag manufacturer offer as I read it. That's a nice machine. I also have an original Neptune 2000 washer/dryer stackable which I need to replace very soon. While we had the problems mentioned, the only mechanical problem was a one time mother board fix while under warranty. Other than that, the Neptune has worked 12 years! I need a 3.2 to 3.5 cubic feet stackable with no more than 32" depth and the Maxima with internal heater I looked at is 35" total depth needed per Maytag specs. Otherwise I believe that would be my choice. Hope this helps and good luck. Here is a link that might be useful: This may help:

Whirlpool owns Maytag, yet oddly doesn't manufacture either of the two washers you're considering. The Maytag is a Korean machine made by Samsung; the Whirlpool is from Italian manufacturer Antonio Merloni Group, best known in the U.S. as the parent company of Asko. Indeed, there's an Asko-branded machine (WCAM1812) that's nearly identical to the Whirlpool LHW0050P, except that it can dry as well as wash your laundry. Both the wash-only and wash/dry machines are also sold under the Eurotech brand, sometimes for less $ than the better-known Whirlpool- or Asko-branded equivalents. Although I have no direct experience with either of these machines, Samsung is reputed to be more reliable than AM. Nonetheless, I'd favor the Whirlpool for its considerably larger capacity (despite not being any larger on the outside), and because the Maytag lacks internal water heating. Even if you set the temperature controls to warm or hot, you might get cold water (and poor cleaning) if your water heater is not very close to your washing machine. Since front-load washers draw only a small amount of water, much of the water will have cooled off in the pipes between the water heater tank and the washer. The Whirlpool heats its own water though, up to 140°F (i'm not clear on whether it heats water to a lower temperature on the warm-water settings, or doesn't heat it at all unless set for a hot-water wash - the online info isn't very specific). Looking both of these over in stores, they both appear to be reasonably well made. The Whirlpool's door latch and detergent drawer are a tad flimsy for my tastes, although they should hold up well if you aren't rough with them.

Have you tried plugging the machine back n and turning the dial to spin to see if it will start pumping out the water? Maybe you just have a pump problem? Sounds like the water valve is stuck open if it keeps adding water. If you need the control board behind the console you can get those thru EBay and you could put it on yourself. If it is the motor control board you might could get the motor and board replaced through your warranty but you will have to pay labor. The motor is warranted for 10 years-I am just saying this if you get someone else to check it and they say you need that ask then about the warranty. I know that the motor and board come together to do the upgrade. I have the Neptune also and mine is 7 years old, have had the door lock and top board changed about 5-6 years ago and so far no more problems-knock wood. The hose to your pressure switch could be stopped up also and telling the tub that it is empty all the time when in reality it is overflowing. Hope you can get it fixed unless youjust want a new machine.

If it were me I would stick with the Maytag (or Samsung) front loaders. If you're buying soon, May is Maytag Month so there may be some extra discounts now, especially closer to memorial day. The Maytag front loaders are highly rated by Consumer Reports. Also the mold issue is not what it once was - they now build the machines with air vents and fans to keep everything fresh. Also, as for "leaving the doors open" I always just leave mine open a crack (not sealed). FYI Maytag is made by Whirlpool, who also has some good front load washers. The WFW92 is feature-rich and priced nicely right now. As far as top-load washers go, they don't work the way they used to. Continuing tightening of the energy and water requirements has lead to a whole new way of washing clothes. Take a look at this video for more info. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1stdNzvWZ4M
