I need to stack the washer and dryer, Model MHW5630HW and Model YMED5630HW to meet space limitations. Does the Maytag stacking washer and dryer have to be installed in a closet with walls on either side? Or is it safe to have a wall on only one side?

Love my new washer and dryer
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased this set a couple of months ago to replace a 10-year-old washer dryer on it’s last legs. I absolutely love this new combination and find it does everything I want. I’ve played around with the different settings and found what works best for us. I really like the front loader. Our clothes do not get knotted around the agitator, the problem with my previous top loader. I would highly recommend this to anyone on the fence about this purchase. The delivery was seamless and efficient and I would definitely recommend Lowe’s! I did add in the pedestals and very glad that I did... a lot less bending.

The wash cycle sometimes never stops
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We thought maybe it was a fluke, when a "normal" wash was extended for an extra hour... but then we did a light load with just a handful of items and the washer displayed said 1 minute left for three hours. We then tried again, it stayed at 3 minutes for 15 minutes so we stopped it, reorganized the clothes to spread them out, and then started it back up again and it kept washing for another hour and a half before we just decided to stop it. It is a great looking washer so we were very disapointed that it would not work... or rather, would work endlessly without stopping.

Disappointed
Purchased this machine in August ‘19. It leaks. It’s had two service calls with a third one pending. In a couple of weeks, they will replace the bellow for the third time claiming that it’s ripping and creating the leaking.
We called Maytag to request a replacement machine. They refused and said they don’t replace faulty machines; they only repair them. This machine clearly has a manufacturing flaw that will continue to rip the bellow.
If Maytag won’t stand behind their product, and have no regard for customer satisfaction, we will never purchase another Maytag or Whirlpool appliance.

Still Learning
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought it this month when my Bosch machine after eleven wonderful years, died. I'm still figuring the Maytag out--seems to have a lot of room-but at the same time, it is less able to spin without getting unbalanced if I put in a full load, as if the capacity exceeds its ability to handle the load. I'm putting this down to my learning process ...and keep consulting the manual and experimenting with settings. So far, I'm on the fence, although the quality of the wash is good, the time it spends washing is long and I worry about energy inefficiency. Time will tell how fond I become.

Quality washer with a few bells and whistles.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We wanted a medium tier front loader and spent quite a bit of time researching the different options. We went with the Maytag because if necessary they're pretty easy to get serviced in our area and because of the warranty.
No complaints. No issues. I know some of the reviews mention the noise, at least with our unit, I would rate it as being pretty quiet. I'm not sure a baby could sleep next to it but the sound it does make doesn't resonate beyond our utility room. The only annoying thing I would note is that our unit was missing a foot on delivery. This required removing the other feet so that it would balance properly but no big deal.
Overall, very happy with the purchase and believe it is a great mid-tier front loader.

Pet Owners Beware!
Mine is a different color but the same model.
How this machine has the high rating it does boggles my mind. It takes FOREVER to run just normal loads 1.5 hrs, if you've got something bulky it could take UP TO 3.5 HOURS! WHAT!? I so regret this purchase! Not only does it take a really long time to wash but then when you get your clothes our it looks like they haven't even been washed! I have 2 daughters with long hair and 2 high shed dogs. When I pull the clothes out they are covered in hair! This was NOT a problem with my old Kenmore washer that finally gave out after 12 years. It managed to wash in half the time and actually got rid of 70% of the hair, my dryer took care of the rest.

Dissappointed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago. I tried to wash my down coat. No matter what I put it on I could not get it to spin out. I tried putting towels in to balance it out. I had to take it dripping wet to my son's house. Same with grandson's small coat, could not get it to spin out. Same with a bedspread. I had to put it on the drain and spin cycle after washing to get it to spin out.
I don't ever see the need to wash my towels for 3 hours. These long cycles are worthless. I had a Neptune for 25 years and never had any problems. I paid a lot of money for this washer and was so excited to get it. I don't see it lasting the distance as new it is not performing well.

Washer is loud and high vibration!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We’ve been remodeling and therefore just tested out the new washer today and the last spin cycle is so intense that it’s causing the washer to move/vibrate violently away from the wall and even unplugged itself!! It’s hitting my new dryer too causing damage. I put it on the low spin cycle but that didn’t make a difference. I’m not sure what to do or even bother replacing it with the same brand, because I’m worried it’s going to happen again. The matching dryer is working fine so far. I’ve already had issues from the start, because the delivery company dented my washer! At least they gave us a discount, but I’m still experiencing issues!! It wouldn’t let me post the video but the picture shows how far it moved at one point.
