Unnecessary, Obnoxious, And Loud "Musical Start-Up Sounds On Maytag Bravos Washer
Posted by Longview on 12/06/2010
Washer cleans clothes just fine and the WASHING OPERATION itself is quiet.
My complaint is about NOISE POLLUTION from the very intrusive, VERY LOUD, totally unnecessary, and OBNOXIOUS musical start-up sounds and other musical noises made by the machine. I would never have acquired this machine if I had known I would have to put up with this harassment "music." The "music" is so loud it can be heard all over my house and it wakes family members who are sleeping.
How can I turn off those obnoxious and unnecessary sounds??? Nothing in the instruction book tells me. I am certain this can be done without hindering the washing mechanism. I eliminated those noises from my cell phone, computer, and high def. television sets.

Are there vocals, too?
Posted by appspecialist on 2011-06-11:
No, you cannot disable the sounds. They are intended for the hearing impaired. I don't find them to be obnoxious at all.
Posted by trmn8r on 2011-06-11:
I think it's preposterous that sounds like that would be for the hearing impaired, and everyone else (the majority) has to put up with them.
I'd yank it apart and disable the sound emitter. The only sound I need to hear from my washer is the sound of silence, indicating the load is done.
Posted by trmn8r on 2011-06-11:
I found an excellent negative review of this line. Here is a snippet:
"I've had this washer for eight months now, and have tried very hard to learn to like it. Unfortunately, it's proving to be a futile effort.
My priorities when I chose this washer were, #1 large capacity, #2 saves water, #3 saves energy. Granted, it delivers on all three, but at what cost?
When I turned the washer on for the first time, I was impressed by the variety of sounds it makes; not loud, but reminiscent of the way a small jet engine sounds when you're inside the cabin awaiting takeoff, and unusual enough to initially frighten small children within earshot."

Wait. Seriously? There is actual music? I thought the OP meant sounds similar to music. I agree, trmn, it is preposterous. To knowingly buy a musical appliance is one thing, but to find out after the fact is indeed a form of harassment, especially if it's loud!
Posted by trmn8r on 2011-06-11:
That's what I am imagining, Venice. The salesperson gives you all the stats about how it saves 1/2 gallon of water each load, rips your clothes to shreds, stinks to high heaven, and needs to be repaired three times in the first year, but neglects to tell you it makes loud annoying sounds.
Posted by Venice09 on 2011-06-11:
The sound should at least be able to be turned off. Depending on the location of the washer, it could be extremely annoying. I'm not even sure how it would help the hearing impaired. As you said, all I need to hear is silence so I know the load is done.
Posted by jktshff1 on 2011-06-11:
From a hard of hearing person..it makes no sense that you can't turn it off.
Posted by trmn8r on 2011-06-11:
According to one Bravos manual I downloaded, there is a "End Signal Off" button on the control panel.
As far at "startup" sounds, I am wondering if the OP is referring not to intentional audible alerts/music, but the sounds the machine itself makes. Evidently, according to the manual, these machines make unusual sounds plain old washing machines didn't.
Posted by GenuineNerd on 2011-06-11:
I personally wouldn't mind if my washer started out with a musical interlude. It would make washday more of a breeze.
Posted by Venice09 on 2011-06-11:
Trmn, that's what I originally thought the sounds were, and that using the word music was just a way to describe them. Now I don't know what to think, but I do know I'll never buy a Bravo!
Posted by maybe on 2012-04-08:
try and holding the (extra rinse button or the end signal button (depends on which model you have) down for 5 seconds)This helps eliminate some sounds.

Ok I'm 22 and from a farm, you can take this with a grain of salt but I'm very mechanically inclined. I am a nanny for someone who HATED those damn chimes. So I looked online, in the manual called around, no one could help. I decided to just investigate for myself.
And It Worked, without compromising the functioning of the both washer and dryer. Here's how I did it:
Start with washer, its easier: Behind the top console, there are three screws that need to be loosened (they don't come all the way out), in order to take off the front console, and get to the guts.
Do this and on the inside of the console you'll see wires taped together and held in place by hooks.
Unplug washer
Feed the wires to the right of each hook, so the tape doesn't interfere with the hook. Remove wires from hooks.
You'll also see a raised grated area on the white plastic section. This is where the sound emitter is. You have to remove the screws to get to it. There are about 5, one is a little higher and hard to get to with the tall screwdriver, so I used a screw bit and a wrench.
Be careful removing this! it may be stuck to the circuit board underneath, and nothing can damage that circuit board! The plastic covering is removed by pulling towards you and then up.
Once removed, double check the sound. With the washer plugged in, reach around and click the power button, the sound will be coming from the raised black circle on the circuit board.
Unplug washer
Now its easy, just twist and lift that little black circle and you'll see wires, snip the wires (in half) and tape the top of the black covering to the inside of the console (in case you want sounds in the future)
Replace plastic covering (secure in back then push down)...make sure it is lined up perfectly, of the screws will damage the circuit board. Replace screws(I taped that difficult screw to the side as well, stupid thing)
Replace wires into hooks and scoot so the tape protects each section from the hooks.
replace top console and put you're screws back in.
The Dryer:
Same as the washer, but the top console is tricky to get off, pull towards you and then up.
Also, the black circle covering needs to be twisted and snapped completely off. It doesnt hurt the machine I promise!! Ours works perfectly and silently now. You can tape that black speaker to the inside, in case you ever want it back, you'll know where the part is.
Keep those tachnician papers inside the console where you found them.
When finished Secure top console by setting back first, then push and pull towards you. If you don't pull towards you the screws wont go through their proper holdings (you can see them through the tiny slots)
Good luck and happy washing!

Great info Chelsea, though the person who wrote this review might not come back to read it (it was posted in 2010)but I'm sure others with the same problem will appreciate it.
Posted by Jane on 2012-11-07:
These were just delivered to my home today after the old set gave up the ghost. My other half isn't a fan of the normal laundry buzzing sounds and he isn't around yet to put his two cents in about all the new music. These instructions may be a marriage saver if they drive him up the wall. So thank you very much Chelsea!
Posted by Tiffany on 2012-12-07:
You can actually turn off the startup/chiming by turning on the machine and then holding the end cycle sound button for 5 seconds
Posted by CC on 2013-01-28:
Tiffany - You are a lifesaver! Love the washer and drier, but absolutely hate the sounds. (I never even noticed the button you are referring to.) Just followed your instructions and will now enjoy each laundry load in silence! Merci!
Posted by NoSound on 2013-02-02:
Yes, thank you it works.......
Now Anybody know how to load
"This is the way we wash our clothes"
Thanks! pushing and holding the button (about 5 sec) on the bottom right of my Bravos XL marked Cycle signal does it.
Posted by steveindanville on 2013-02-06:
I have a Bravos X500 bought 2/5/13 and the signals on every single button push, plus the end of wash song drove me nuts immediately. Mine doesn't have an "End Signal Off" button, but holding the "Extra Rinse" button turned off a lot of sounds. Not the Start or options buttons, but at least the dial for the different wash options is now silent except for the Normal cycle, and that's fine. The internet is the best! Thanks for the help.
Posted by Bob on 2013-02-28:
No need to do a surgical procedure on the board, the previous posters got it right: Turn on the washer and press and hold the end cycle sound button for 5 seconds or so until you hear a small beep. Done.
Posted by NK on 2013-03-20:
There is a cycle signal button on the control panel in the lower right. Hold it down until it chimes. It turns all the startup chimes off. Works on washer and dryer both. :)
Posted by Herb on 2013-04-10:
How about turning off this infernal sounds on Maytag model
MVWX600XW2 ? It doesn't have a cycle signal button!
Thanks for any help.
Posted by Jody on 2013-05-24:
To turn off the musical sounds on Bravos washer and dryer, put your finger on the End Signal press 3 times, but on third press for off, Keep Holding for 5 seconds and you will hear an acknowledgement beep. Then you can do laundry in peace and decide if you want the hi, low, or off for end cycle. Hope this helps.
Posted by Adrian on 2013-05-26:
Thanks Jody - the same process works on the Maxima series washer and dryer as well. So happy to be rid of the chimes.
Posted by Rick G on 2013-05-29:
press the cycle/signal button until it makes a beep. Music gone! I liked it for about 2 days and then it got annoying. Then I really started to hate it. Then I almost dragged the $2000 pair out into the yard to burn them down lol
Posted by scottyb on 2013-07-21:
Holding the end signal button worked for me!! Thanks it's so much better now.
Posted by Jacques on 2013-07-21:
Finally. Thanks to Tiffany for the heads up. On mine it was "End Signal" for 5 seconds, but it worked, and for that I am eternally grateful. Just one complaint now, and that is the fact that the power is turned on automatically when I open the lid of the washer/dryer.
Posted by Debbie on 2013-07-28:
OMG ... soooo agree. I hate the obnoxious musical signals on my new washer/dryer. Sooooo annoying!!!!
Posted by Suz on 2013-08-13:
I just bought a Maxima set, there is no cycle or signal button on either. Any suggestions for how to easily get the sounds turned off?
Posted by Mdean on 2013-08-16:
I just tried the 5 second hint. It worked easily. Thank you, thank you and ohhh, did I say thank you:)
Posted by Vanessa on 2013-09-10:
On the Maxima it is the "cycle signal" button. Turn machine on and then hold that button down for about 3 seconds...it will make a little blip sound and then release. NO MORE SOUNDS!!! Woo hoo. Thanks so much. Maytag customer service said it couldn't be done! I am so happy.
Posted by Rupert on 2013-10-19:
The user care guide indicates that the "cycle signal" button only appears on models 4000 and up on the Maxima. Arghhh!!! I just bought a 3000 and the tones are driving me bonkers. WTF Maytag? Why design an appliance that makes noises like a 2 year old's toy??
I'd love to open it up, find the circuit board and cut the wire to the speaker, but I'd probably damage the whole unit and void the warranty in the process.
Posted by Edog on 2013-11-16:
"Maytag Customer Service" said it couldn't be done?? Hoo-Rah for the Consumer Revolution! I silenced our pair of Maytag Maximas with a 3 second press on the 'cycle signal' as Vanessa and others suggested! Now let's spread the word before any more of these US made appliances get dragged out to the back yard and burned!!
Posted by Christy on 2014-03-09:
Thanks for telling me how to turn off that obnoxious sound. It was like a Donkey Kong game was playing in the basement. The sound was so bad, I would have returned them if you all hadn't posted how to turn it off. Maytag should be ashamed of their horrible machine instructions.

Don't buy Maytag 3000 Series Front Loader Washer - Tub Bearing Design Flaw
Posted by Mdavid01 on 08/22/2011
553 BENSON ROAD, MICHIGAN -- Bought the washer new in 2009 for new home. Begain using 6 months after purchase. After about 6 months started hearing a knock during the spin cycle. The knock grew louder over time. I checked and rechecked the level. It was out of warranty. After checking for loose bolts, etc. I found that the bearing on the tub had worn and was wobbling in the race. That created heat and caused the bearing to swell and jam the inner tub inside the outer tub. I called for a new bearing but had to purchase a new tub from Marcone for over $300. I pounded out the jammed inner tub.
The new tub slid right in and all was quiet - until about 5 or 6 months later and it's started all over again. Maytag says they have no other complaints. Now why would they tell me if they did. They said I could have a repair man come and replace the tub at my expense. I kindly suggested if that's the best they can do, I will not buy their products again.
I'm not a wash machine engineer but I can look at the bearing and tub design and know there's no way for the bearing and tub to hold the weight of water and wet clothes. It's a bad design. I recommend staying away from Maytag. I don't know if Whirlpool or other front load designs are the same. Hope not.

So, you have to keep replacing the tub every few months? That was Maytag's only solution? Certainly they must be joking.
Maytag appliances are poorly designed. I know because I've had three. I, too, would never buy another one.
Posted by Skye on 2011-08-22:
That's crazy, as well as ridiculous. Their only solution is to basically cost you more money and headaches.
You should contact your state department of consumer affairs. Give it a try.
Posted by At Your Service on 2011-08-22:
My concern sounds like the problem COULD have more to do with your do-it-yourself repair.
We've discussed this among some of the other contributors. Some detest the concept of extended warranties. Others see a reasonable use for them. I am one of the latter. An extended warranty could have saved you the time, cost and effort of the do-it-yourself fix and, if the unit wasn't repairable, could have replaced it for you.
This is absolutely where additional warranty coverage would have helped out.
It may make a person feel better to state, "I'll never buy this brand again," but that also assumes a better option. I'd love to hear of this magical brand that never has problems or complaints.
Posted by trmn8r on 2011-08-22:
There are complaints about that bearing failing when HE detergent isn't used, unless I am mistaken.
Posted by Venice09 on 2011-08-22:
Anything worth buying does not need an extended warranty. It's wrong to sell poor quality products that need constant renewals of extended warranties to keep them up and running. It's the purchase that keeps on costing.
The OP purchased a washing machine from Maytag in good faith. It obviously has a design flaw. If it can't be fixed, how many extended warranties is he expected to buy? Just how much is this washer going to cost in the end?
As far as getting it replaced under an extended warranty, that's a fallacy and rarely, if ever, happens. It takes more time, energy and aggravation than a person can stand, which is exactly what the companies are banking on.
I believe it is now the consensus on this site that extended warranties are not worth the paper they are written on. Just read the comments, and you'll see what I mean.
Isn't it a total embarrassment to the appliance industry on a whole that there is not one reliable brand out there?

I've been on the receiving end of a washing machine exchange under an extended warranty.
Along the lines of "Anything worth buying does not need an extended..."; why would it even be important to provide an original warranty?
Posted by Venice09 on 2011-08-23:
I have also been on the receiving end of a washing machine replacement under an extended warranty. That was when I changed my stance on extended warranties. I went through hell for exactly one year before they finally gave in to the fact that I had been right all along.
They did everything possible not to honor the warranty. I was blatantly lied to, deceived, manipulated, threatened and victimized with calculated mind games. I suffered through at least a dozen useless service calls that did nothing but waste my time. I spent endless hours on the telephone arguing with customer service reps whose only objective was to not part with a dime. They strung me along with solutions that didn't work, including an entire rebuild of the washer, until the extended warranty was about to expire. The ordeal was so stressful that it actually started to affect my health, but I was determined to get what I paid for.
Was it worth it? No.
I made a decision to never buy another extended warranty.
And keep in mind that this happened many years ago, long before companies started becoming so dishonorable. I can't imagine what it's like to cash in on an extended warranty now. Oh, wait!.. I can. All I have to do is read the reviews.
If something isn't designed and built to last a reasonable amount of time beyond the original warranty, it's not worth buying. Nothing should break on the 366th day unless it's designed to do so. Planned obsolescence exists whether you admit it or not. And don't ask me how long I expect appliances to last because I can't answer that. I think consumers instinctively know when they've gotten their money's worth out of an appliance. I also think consumers are fair and reasonable people who just want what they paid for without having to pay even more to ensure that it works beyond one year.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
Posted by At Your Service on 2011-08-24:
Wow, I'm glad I don't live in that world.
My end was only a few years ago. One call. A service call the next day to determine the problem. A NEW washer a few days after that. It was actually the LAST month of a five year warranty. Pretty nice.
Sometimes attitude is everything.
Posted by Venice09 on 2011-08-24:
Well, then I guess all the people who have completely different experiences from yours have bad attitudes. Is that what you're saying?
It sounds like you are diminishing the importance of their complaints with unwarranted speculation.
Posted by jktshff1 on 2011-08-24:
AYS, a mfg's warranty is necessary to fix any "bugs" not discovered in manufacturing. Accidents happen and the manufacturer should cover them. If it does not fail during the warranty, usually, and there are exceptions, it's good to go. An extended warranty is for those who are uncomfortable with the product in the first place, and have the extra $$ to cover it. I would like to see the earnings a company like Best Buy makes on these extended warranties. Great way to boost the bottom line.
Posted by At Your Service on 2011-08-24:
You're absolutely right jktshff1 that a warranty is absolutely used to cover those problems that go undetected in the manufacturer's quality control process. However, warranty coverage is much more than just that. Reference this link illustrating a traditional "bathtub curve"... http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/handbook/apr/section1/apr124.htm
This curve is a common representation for the engineering of many products. Along the left side of this graft is shown the probability of failure. Along the bottom of this same graft is represented the length of time in which it would take the product to fail. In the beginning, this curve shows a higher probability for failure. The reason is based upon exactly what you've stated. Once the time period has surpassed the area represented by the first vertical line within the graft, probability for failure drops and levels out for some arbitrary given time. This period of time is labeled as the "Intrinsic Failure Period". Then you hit an area where the probability of breakdown increases substantially. This is represented by a second line AND IS GENERALLY WHERE MANY MANUFACTURER WARRANTIES WILL END.
So a warranty is guarantee to the consumer that if a product fails to operate within certain specifications, for a certain period of time coverage for the parts and/or labor will be covered by another party.
If warranty coverage is meaningless, than a 90 day warranty should be more than acceptable to the consumer. Personally, I'd never make what I would consider a major purchase without the consideration of warranty coverage. Short warranty periods, even a year, can be inexcusable IMHO. I take the time to consider the retailer and coverage options as seriously as the merchandise itself. That doesn't mean I would invest the money in an extended warranty, but it should become part of the buying decision every bit as much as the merchandise.
Posted by jktshff1 on 2011-08-24:
Never said coverage was meaningless. An "expert" numbers guy can make the look any way they want them to (look at our gubment). Me and many of my associates look down on extended warranties. That being said, the more "technically" advanced a product is, the more likely for failure due to the life of the electronics.
Put the numbers how you like, extended warranties are a gold mine for profits for the manufacturers and companies supplying them.
Posted by spektyr on 2012-06-14:
To be absolutely fair here, I've owned the 3000 Series washer and dryer for over two years and so far I've had no problems. I've always been a bit uncomfortable with the low water level but I've seen other people say it's normal for some HE machines and my clothes do come out clean, with the exception of some stubborn stains of course. I make it a point to obey the instructions and only use HE rated detergents. I even go as far as to use only liquids since I've seen powdered detergents clog the pumps and valves in some of the older washers. I live alone so I use the machines about once a week (3 to 4 medium loads). I would stay away from putting too many heavy clothes (e.g. jeans, sweats) in a load despite what the instructions say. Very large loads of heavy clothes may not balance well during a fast spin cycle and that can put a lot of wear and tear on the drum bearing and suspension. I know how the economy is tempting people to reduce the number of loads they do by making them bigger but the money you might save now won't be worth the repair or replacement expenses this practice could create for you later. Don't overwork your machine and it should last you a lot longer.
Good luck!
Posted by Michelle on 2012-09-19:
Just had this exact issue with my washer...bearings have gone bad, which shouldn't happen on a washer three years old. Maytag was more of a hassle to talk with and offered no assistance or suggestions other than my $1,000 washer has extended the one year warranty period...customer service rep was horrible and left me on the line when I asked for company address to send a complaint regarding washer. How do they not track these issues?? Sadly I own the marching dryer, two pedestals, and the top...
Posted by jvems on 2012-11-06:
Same washer same problem, bought december 2009
I had problems with a maytag fridge and stove, so they were off my list of appliances, but i have always used their washing machines with no problem, they are now off the list for all appliances
as for all of you extended warranty dummies what you pay for that extended warranty is about half the price of a new machine, so if you make it the five years you are out.
suck it nerds

maytag 3000 model MHWE300VF00.
had problem from the begining. first the major motor bracket wasn't even installed. next the tub bearings went out. let me know when they admit theres a problem email@example.com.
Posted by kim on 2013-06-15:
just thought mine was louder than most now 3 yrs later and a few loads of laundry ruined I know what it is sure wish I would have realized before now glad I purchased extended warranty but what after that runs out
Posted by Scott on 2013-07-15:
So I had the same problem with the main bearing on my Maytag front-loading washing machine. I called an AUTHORIZED Maytag repair shop and they told me to call Whirlpool (Maytag's parent company) because they have been having a LOT of problems with main bearing issues in their washing machines. Not only that, but there are a countless number of complaints out there about bearings going out as well. They told me to call Whirlpool and they would probably cover it under warranty because of the issues they've been having, even though the washer was out of warranty. Well, no such luck. Whirlpool even went so far as to say there haven't been any complaints about bearing issues, which is clearly untrue. My $1000 washing machine didn't last 2 years and now I will have to buy a new one (it's a $700 repair). I will never buy any appliance the Whirlpool corporation makes, and if you value your money, I would not buy one either.
Posted by Hofrick on 2013-07-23:
I had this washer for less than 4 years and the tub started making noises. Had repairman come out and he said needed new tub and gasket. $628.28 and two weeks later, he said the bearings was out and needed $300 more. I sent this Maytag piece of junk to the salvage yard and will never buy Whirlpool or Maytag again.
Posted by Heather on 2013-08-03:
I am entirely disappointed with my Maytag experience. Been dealing with a washer that got louder and louder until I couldn't take it anymore. Used Maytag's automated service and had a repairman dispatched 8am the next morning. Repairman told me bad seals on the bearings led to rust and water getting in there and unbalancing the tub. I decide to try my luck with Maytag Customer Service and no luck to be had. Out of warranty so I'm stuck with a $500 repair. Oh, and this kicker: a very genuine customer service rep tried to help me but after checking with his mgr., told me that nothing could be done because I had used the automated service. What difference does it make? I'm done with Maytag/Whirpool.
Posted by Cynthia on 2013-11-16:
I have the same problem. My Maytag washer model #MHWE300VFOO was making horrible sound. Then all of a sudden it started leaking. Called for service. Service man opened it up and I was told that the bearing needed to be replaced. Of course warranty had expired! Also, the cement weights had cracked and basket tub had separated. I was given an estimate of $975 just to have it repaired!! Really? I could buy a new one for that much. Only had machine for 3 years!!! Now if I buy a new one, it won't match the dryer it was paired with. They are both red!!! Very disappointed.

Washer is disappointing
Posted by Maytagger on 10/11/2011
I have a Whirlpool stove, Maytag dishwasher, washer and dryer (Maytag appliances all bought since the first of 2011). All except the washer work as they are supposed to...but. The washer does not perform as I would like. There have been occasions when a cycle has completed running that I find part of the sheets (at the top of the load) that are not even wet! There is no truly gentle cycle. The spin cycle on all the cycle selections spins the clothes to death. My old washer (Whirlpool) had a cycle that really worked with permanent press and had a great gentle cycle. I find that my delicates are spun as I said almost to death. All my permanent press now need ironing. And the ball for fabric softener is really a joke. I have found white spots on some of my dark clothes that have to be washed again because the softener is not being spread around and/or washed out. As a old time Maytag/Whirlpool customer I'm sad to say I would not recommend this washer.

It's ironic that the item that made Maytag famous also became its downfall. I waited a long time to get my first Maytag washer, and it turned out to be a huge disappointment. I would never buy another one.
Posted by At Your Service on 2011-10-12:
The difference between old and new is a change within the water and energy reduction measures taken by the government. All the manufacturers have changed their product lines to top loading units which fall in line with these regulations. In a proverbial nutshell, most top loading units now simulate the way a font load washer operates. Models produced under this Centennial line offer different variants allowing the user to control certain attributes of each wash cycle including the delicate and stronger wash cycles.
Posted by Venice09 on 2011-10-13:
What does your comment have to do with this review? I don't see any association whatsoever. Are you saying the OP's washer is supposed to work that way? That's a depressing thought.

Posted by Crappydesign on 03/13/2013
Here is my control panel problem. I purchased my dream double oven gas range,, only to turn into a nightmare. The control panel actually melted and the plastic buckled right on the buttons that control all the oven functions. If this had happened within the first 90 days they would have checked into a recall, I was told.
It did not so I had to purchase an extended warranty at $350.+ which I did, since the ovens wouldn't work at all. I corresponded with Maytag and told them I felt this was a faulty design and that I wanted my money back that I had to pay out for extra warranty. They stood behind their product. So I got the new control panel installed and within a month the same problem the control panel is buckling again. Apparent the flame from the right rear burner shoots up on to the panel and melts it. Now this to me is FAULTY DESIGN. I thought a stove was designed to cook your food on all burners and both ovens.
So now both of the ovens are pooched as well, apparently the pieces needed to fix the ovens are no longer available, so we will see what this extended warranty will do for me.
2007 this stove is 6 years old. I had a gas range before this for 25 years and traded it in for this nightmare stove. I will find out in a couple of days what the warranty will do to replace my stove.
It better be good!

The problem is occurring on a 6 year old stove, it has repeated - something is wrong. You might want to report this issue to CPSC - it will be recorded and could possibly end up related to a recall action.
There have been issues with melting, I don't remember the details. It could be the right rear burner is the issue?
Let us know what happens - please.

It sounds like you are saying that the ovens themselves have now failed. Wow.
Your diagnosis of the design issue seems plausible. Our 1953 Tappan (!) wall oven had an issue with heat escaping and getting into the controls above the oven, but since they were electromechanical, they were able to withstand it. The clock in the same area was not, and failed within a few years (I am told).
At 6 years, you are near the paltry 7 year life span I have heard kitchen appliances are meant to last these days. Shocking, yes. It much be extremely discouraging to have a pretty new oven that is a piece of junk that has failed twice and even if fixed is destined to fail again, shortly.
Stop back and let us know what you are told. It sound like it is time to shove this POC to the curb.

CALIFORNIA -- I am very disappointed with Maytag's Quiet Series 200 Dishwasher. I bought this dishwasher about 4 years ago and it's already dead. How does a company make something this expensive that can't outlive my beta fish? Did I abuse it by wearing a wifebeater t-shirt while loading and unloading my dishes? NO. It's ridiculous that I have to incur costs to replace a control panel through no fault of my own.
I had an appliance person look at it and he said, "yes" it was the control panel that needed to be replaced. That's approx 170.00 for the part and another 120.00 for labor. With that cost, I could probably buy a new cheaper dishwasher that would last me a little longer than 4 years. I always thought Maytag was a reputable company. Not anymore! Badly designed model from my experience and also in later reviews of this product. Several people have had the same problem with their control panel. Shame on you Maytag.

Maytag's quality of products is poor, their service not help at all
Posted by FrancesJ on 01/25/2011
I bought Maytag electric ceramic glass top range when I remodeled my kitchen recently. I did not really use it until after the holiday season. When I use it I realized there were big problem. It takes a long time to heat up, long time to cold it down. And it's on and off by itself even I set up at the highest energy! I am talking about cook-top not the oven, there was no temperature set. One time, I used the largest eye, it took me 20-30 minutes to cock one simple dish that I just need 5 -7 minuets on my old electric stove(I have admit the contact was not good-bottom of the pot not flat like top). Dish was not done the stove was on off or dim operation. I really want to smash the stove with my wok-that's what I feel about the range. The worst thing is at beginning because I am still not used to check the indicator light, I thought it's was off(because I do not see the stove eye rad) and actually it wasn't. Fortunately somebody else was home, smelled burning food and turned stove off! Other wise I can not imaging what going to happen!
Oh, I used Oven, preheating takes 10 minutes!
I went to Home Depot, where I bought the range, the section manager told me this was a special order can't be returned(why they did not tell me when I buy the stuff) and tell me to call Maytag. The first time I called I found although I have the receipt, I do not have serial number. Next time I called from home when I got the serial number,, it was 8:15pm-the answer machine told me their service time only 8:00am to 8:00pm Mon to Friday. The third time I called, I waited on line almost half hour to get answer. The representative told me there is nothing wrong with the range it supposedly on and off during cock. It's designed that way(Oh, my god! what kind of design? let me cock or not!). There's nothing they can do bout it. Like others said "Maytag Customer Service only says they are sorry that I am having a problem and make no effort or commitment to correct the problem".
Now, I would never, ever buy any of product from Maytag. I will recommend anybody who were shopping for appliance not to buy Maytag products! Their quality of product are poor, their service not help at all.

I've always wanted a glass cooktop, and the only thing that stopped me was that I prefer a gas stove over electric. If your experience is common with glass cooktops, I'm glad I steered clear of them.
Posted by Anonymous on 2011-01-25:
Venice, I've heard that the glass cooktops on other name brand's work fine. Sounds like this Maytag definitely doesn't. I am getting one in my new kitchen because of the easy clean up (and I have electric)--but it won't be a Maytag. Wish me luck! Thanks for the post which confirms what I've heard about Maytag lately.
Posted by fast327 on 2011-01-25:
I bought my wife a Whirlpool ceramic glass cooktop for Christmas and she loves it! It heats up really fast, holds the temps well, and the touch controls work expremely well. So far-so good. Hope it holds up. Tune in later for a progress report!
Posted by Venice09 on 2011-01-25:
Okay, now I want one again!.. mostly because of the easy clean-up and uncluttered look. I wish both of you luck. I should know better than to judge all glass cooktops by the performance of a Maytag.

Broken Bearings Maytag Front Loader Washer Series 3000
Posted by Ruamdina on 12/27/2010
I purchased a Maytag Front Loader washer Series 3000 over one year ago and now the bearings need replacement. I called a service guy and he quoted the repair to be $1,100 almost $400 dollars more of what I paid for the washer.
Do not buy Maytag, bad quality and the company doesn't back up their products. I read the reviews online and the washer had excellent reviews. But let me tell you, the washer is not worth $200.

Posted by appspecialist on 2011-05-14:
the servisce calls and repair parts can be a bit pricy thats why most stores recomend an extended waranty. front load washers are known for thier faults but the newer models are even worse. that goes for all brands not only maytag. LG is one of the best brands ive found. they tend to have less problems, but are more expensive.
Posted by trmn8r on 2011-05-14:
Bearing replacement is very expensive on these machines. If you don't use HE detergent, it will ruin the seals/bearings.

A double wall oven with two logic board failures in 9 years: 2 X $400=$800 to fix.
Posted by Hilde45 on 12/02/2010
BENTON HARBOR, MICHIGAN -- My family owns a double wall oven, Model number MEW6630CAS. It was an expensive oven in 2001 and we hoped we were acquiring a sturdy and reliable tool for our family kitchen. Unfortunately, we have had to fix the digital display twice since we got this oven, at over $400 for each fix. The first fix was in 2005 and the last fix was last month, in 2010. In addition to the initial cost of the oven, then, we have spent over $800 just to be able to read the basic information of time, temperature, etc. of the oven.
Obviously, when we acquired the oven, we never suspected we would need to spend over $800 dollars just to be able to read the displays. This is a huge hidden cost and, we think, points to a serious problem with the design and the parts used to repair this product.
We contacted Maytag first by email, then by phone. Maytag representatives simply said that the oven is out of warranty and that there's nothing which can be done. We are realistic about the lifespan of products, and we absorbed the cost of the first expensive fix to our Maytag oven without complaint. However, the need to fix the oven a second time motivated us to ask for Maytag to compensate for at least the second fix.
We wrote a letter to Maytag, to the Director of Consumer Care, Maytag. Her office (not her) responded by calling us and all they did was repeat the fact that the oven was out of warranty. I wonder if the makers of the Ford Pinto repeated that their defective cars were out of warranty!
In short: Maytag oven is a terrible product, with multiple failures of digital display, a huge fix cost ($800 and counting) and a company that refuses to follow best practices and stand up for their customers. We are done with Maytag.

From what I can tell, Maytag/Whirlpool is losing a lot of customers. I wonder what it will take for them to do something about it. You sound like a reasonable person, and your complaint is justified. I think it would be wise for Maytag to do whatever it takes to keep you as a customer. I don't blame you for writing them off.
Posted by ok4now on 2010-12-03:
Venice: I knew that you would jump on this review. The OP was ripped off with an appliance product that failed. The manufacturer won't stand behind their inferior product and makes excuses for repair. Bottom line: The customer after spending big bucks looses again. This is not right!! It seems that no matter how much you spend on an appliance it's a gamble on the reliability & the customer gets stuck with the bill when it fails.
Posted by hilde45 on 2010-12-03:
Your comments of support are appreciated! I would just add that in my conversation with Maytag they said, "Well, the product *is* 10 years old," as if that was very old. My parents just last year replaced their dishwasher and oven, after 45 years of service. Their fridge is still going strong. They really don't make appliances like they used to--not even close.
Posted by Venice09 on 2010-12-03:
Hilde, yes the product is ten years old, but the only reason it made it that long is because you invested $800 in repairs. Of course, Maytag doesn't see it that way. As ok4now pointed out, everything is a gamble no matter how much spend. Appliances should be more reliable, like they used to be. But, as you said, it's not even close.
Posted by trmn8r on 2010-12-03:
Here's the disconnect. Appliances years ago lasted longer. I am old enough to remember.
Appliances today are designed to last 7 years. 7 years! Perhaps in 2001, it was 10. So this is why the CSR acted as though your appliance is old. In their mind, it is.
So, you end up with people saying "My LG was a piece of junk. I'm going to get a Whirlpool." "My Whirlpool was a piece of junk, I'm going to get a Electrolux." "My Electrolux didn't clean the floor - that's false advertising."
Posted by ok4now on 2010-12-03:
Let's expand this discussion in another direction. My king size bed comforter needed to be washed so I took it to my local laundromat. They have the huge commercial machines that will accommodate an item of this size. While waiting I struck up a conversation with the owner. I inquired about the commercial machines and how it would be nice to get this quality for home use. He stated that they are constantly breaking down with a high repair cost and he had to learn how to fix them to save money. So again brand name seems to have little value. You take a chance and hope it lasts.
Posted by Venice09 on 2010-12-04:
I always wondered about the durability of commercials machines. I just assumed they were made with better quality. Apparently not. And I'm sure those machines are very expensive. I wonder why it's so difficult to produce reliable appliances. It's not like it hasn't been done before. Why are the expensive, high end appliances not made of better quality so they last longer and need less repairs?

When Touchpads, Heating Elements, and Customer Service Don't Respond
Posted by JenS on 03/12/2013
BENTON HARBOR, MICHIGAN -- Yikes, after only 4 years of once a week use (there's only 2 of us) the touchpads on the Maytag dishwasher don't work. Replacing the front panel -yes that's what it takes - will cost about $250 plus installation. A call to Maytag and I find out that they have also recalled the heating element and the dishwasher is unusable. After 45 minutes on wait or being kicked from one dept to another, Maytag's customer service supervisor (who said she'd call back)has yet to do so. (I've spoken with her once requesting a replacement for my lemon) but no answer yet after 3 weeks and 2 voice mails - last one today.
Yes, the Maytag repairman is sleeping somewhere - the company just charges its customers to replace poorly designed products. Is this a function of being bought/merged with Whirlpool? Anyone know?

I would say it has nothing to do with the Whirlpool acquisition, but just moreover the historical unreliability of electronic controls on dishwashers. We have a Bosch that was $900 new and it needed a $450 board when it was about 3-4 years old too. Nasty environment (water and steam proximity) for electronics, but that's what all the new decent models are doing now.
Posted by GenuineNerd on 2013-03-12:
Failures such as this are why basic appliances with old-fashioned knob controls are more reliable than touch panels, control panels, and motherboards.

Maytag Dryers Are Junk
Posted by JLowe29101 on 09/22/2011
Bought a new Maytag Bravo dryer in Jan 2011. It has crapped out already with very little use. Repair people have been out 3 times and now have to refer it to the factory for "model review board" which take a week. They have replaced the board ($375 + labor +-), a thermal fuse($50 + labor+-) and another service call to determine they didn't know what was wrong and had to refer it to the Model review board. Been without a dryer for a week already and called the Maytag people this morning and told them I want a new dryer. THey said they have to exhaust all possibilities of fixing this peice of JUNK before they could move on to possible replacing the unit !!. What a total waste of money and time. I will have a new dryer in my house this evening, and it won't be anything made by Maytag or Whirlpool, and will turn the case over to an attorney. BUYER BEWARE of any Maytag because the repairman ain't so lonely anymore. I have a BIG MOUTH and by the time I get through with MY advertising on Maytag they will wish they had replaced my machine may times over. Better Business Bureau is my next letter.

Please give them some time to sort it out. Squeezing them may prove to be anti-productive. There is a process with all brands as to repair options must have met a threshold before a swap will be authorized. Legally they can just keep fixing it as that is honoring the warranty. Getting legal may be premature and forget the BBB. Maytag could care less as nobody who is thinking of buying a Maytag would go to Newton Iowa's BBB to check their report to finalize a decision.
I do sympathize with you. An 8 month old dryer that can't be fixed is pretty bogus. Hopefully they will do a swap for you soon without you having to really start to push it.
I'm not one who generally buys into a new dryer should be replaced anytime it needs a service call, but yours seems problematic and really should be exchanged in the name of good faith.
Posted by At Your Service on 2011-09-22:
I agree with a lot of what Slimjim is saying. With all due respect, I don't see anyone going to an attorney over a dryer. Any reasonable attorney would begin by requiring a $1500 retainer which is more than what the value of the dryer is. The only thing is will do is close off communication with them. They'll immediately begin by referring you to their legal department, so nothing will come about.
Maytag, IMHO, has some really good appliances. I own them and love them. If you'll work with them, I'm sure they'd be much more willing to help you along the way.
Please keep in touch if everything isn't completed to your liking.
Posted by Venice09 on 2011-09-22:
It looks like JUNK is the word of the day when referring to Whirlpool/Maytag. Their reputation is going down the toilet faster than you can flush.
Slim, I agree that a little patience can go a long way, but I can't help wondering how long it will take to "exhaust all possibilities". Possibly until the warranty expires? Sometimes the customer has to take a stand to get the company to do the right thing.

Vanderbilt Stadium is a football stadium located in Nashville, Tennessee. Completed in 1922 as the first stadium in the South to be used exclusively for college football, it is the home of the Vanderbilt University football team.[4] Vanderbilt Stadium hosted the Tennessee Oilers (now Titans) and the first Music City Bowl in 1998 and also hosted the Tennessee state high school football championships for many years.
It is the smallest football stadium in the Southeastern Conference, and was the largest outdoor stadium in Nashville until the completion of the Titans' LP Field in 1999.
Old Dudley Field[edit]
Vanderbilt football began in 1892, and for thirty years, Commodore football teams played on the northeast corner of campus where Wilson Hall, Kissam Quandrangle, and a portion of the Vanderbilt University Law School now stand, adjacent to today's Twenty-First Avenue South.[5]
The first facility was named for William Dudley, Dean of the Vanderbilt University Medical School from 1885 until his death in 1914. Dudley was responsible for the formation of the SIAA, the predecessor of the Southern Conference and Southeastern Conference, in 1895, and was also instrumental in the formation of the NCAA in 1906.[4]
Old Dudley was the site where legendary head coach Dan McGugin led Vanderbilt to both of its football national championships (Billingsley National title), in 1906 and 1911.[6]
In 1922, after a 0.742 winning percentage during the eighteen-year tenure of Coach McGugin, the Commodores had outgrown old Dudley Field.[4] It was time for a new stadium.
New Dudley Field[edit]
There was not enough room to expand old Dudley Field at its site near Kirkland Hall, so Vanderbilt administrators purchased land adjacent to what is today Twenty-Fifth Avenue South, on the west side of campus, for the new facility.[4] The new stadium, the first in the South built solely for football, was christened "Dudley Field," and its capacity was 20,000.
The old field was re-christened Curry Field, in honor of Irby "Rabbit" Curry, a standout football player from 1914–16, who left Vanderbilt to serve in the American Expeditionary Force to Europe in World War I and was killed while flying a combat mission over France in 1918.
The first game played at Dudley Field was between the home-standing Commodores and the powerful Michigan Wolverines. A goal-line stand by the Commodores preserved a 0-0 tie.[4] The following Friday, nearby Hume-Fogg High School played a game at Dudley. Senior Jimmie Armistead returned the opening kick for a touchdown, providing the first touchdown ever recorded in the stadium. Armistead would go on to a successful career at Vanderbilt and was the captain and starting halfback for the 1927 team.
In 1949, Vanderbilt officials built a modern press box at Dudley Field, replacing a platform that had been used prior to that.[7] Additional seating was also added to the western side of stadium, boosting capacity to 27,901.[7]
On September 25, 1954, Vanderbilt hosted the No. 10-ranked Baylor Bears in the first night game ever played on the Dudley Field surface.[7] The lights had been installed so that Dudley Field, Nashville's largest outdoor venue at the time, would be able to host the Billy Graham Crusade on campus.[7]
In 1960, nearly 7,000 more seats are added to the stadium, with an expansion on the east side of the stadium near Memorial Gym. Capacity jumped to 34,000.[7]
At a price of $250,000, officials installed what was then a state-of-the-art Astroturf synthetic surface to Dudley Field in 1970.[7]
Vanderbilt Stadium[edit]
Battleship gray[edit]
Over the winter and spring of 1980–81, most of the Dudley Field grandstand was demolished. The 12,088 seats on each sideline--the only vestige of the old stadium--were raised ten feet through the use of 22 hydraulic jacks on each side of the stadium. However, the playing surface is still called Dudley Field.
The stadium's maximum capacity after the 1980–81 renovation was 41,000, consisting of a single-decked horseshoe grandstand filled in with wooden bleachers from the original 1960 expansion. The project cost $10.1 million, and the Commodores celebrated a sold-out dedication by taking a 23–17 comeback win over Maryland on September 12, 1981.
The new stadium and its Fred Russell Press Box (named for Vanderbilt alumnus, former football player, and sports journalist Fred Russell), recalling Vanderbilt's naval themed-mascot the Commodore, were designed to resemble a United States naval vessel slicing through the water, and the color-scheme picked for the exterior of the stadium was battleship gray.
To enhance the gameday experience, officials increased capacity to 41,448 and added a Jumbotron video screen in the north end zone, adjacent to Kensington Place, in advance of the Tennessee Oilers playing their 1998 home games in the facility. The stadium served as Nashville's main outdoor stadium until the completion of what is now LP Field in 1999, when the Oilers — now the Titans — moved to their brand-new facility.
The same year, in 1999, the playing surface was returned to grass, and Vanderbilt officials removed an aging bleacher section — from the 1960 renovation — from the north end zone, lowering capacity to 41,221 in 2002 and to 39,773 in 2003. The bleachers from the north end zone were replaced them with a visitors' concourse that affords any fan in the stadium a field-level, up-close experience with the playing surface. The metal frames for the bleachers were relocated to Mt. Juliet Christian School's football facility in suburban Nashville.
After nearby Hawkins Field, Vanderbilt's baseball stadium, was constructed in a classic brick-and-iron style in 2002, Vanderbilt administrators began to look at giving Vanderbilt Stadium a similar flavor. They also began to consider the construction of a football facility in place of the present concourse and JumboTron in the north end zone.[8]
On July 24, 2007, Vanderbilt officials announced they were in the preliminary stages of a stadium renovation plan, with financing, design concept, and date of completion yet to be determined.[8]
Nine months later, on May 20, 2008, Vice Chancellor David Williams II announced, in a McGugin Center press conference, that the University was beginning a five-phased, multi-million dollar program of renovations to Vanderbilt athletics facilities, including extensive renovations and additions to Vanderbilt Stadium.[8]
Under the plan announced by Williams, Vanderbilt Stadium will be modified (in the first four phases) as follows:
Phase | Date completed | Estimated cost | Renovation and construction | |
August 2008 | $ 12 million | Brick-and-iron fences, new ticketing facility, renovation of east concourse, new paint scheme throughout interior, exterior of stadium painted gold, "VANDERBILT" and Star-V logos added to exterior of press box |
August 2009 | $ 12 million | Renovation of west concourse, brick- and-iron fences added to west concourse, addition of brick to exterior of Natchez Trace (west) facade of stadium, construction of new entry plazas at Gates 2 and 3 on Jess Neely Drive |
August 2010 | $ 8 million | Renovation of north concourse, brick- and-iron fences added to north concourse, completion of bricking of exterior of entire stadium, construction of new entry plazas at Gates 1 and 4 on Kensington Avenue |
August 2011 | $ 18 million | Construction of additional seating, football offices, locker rooms, recruiting facilities, hospitality facilities, and indoor/outdoor luxury suites in north end zone, with relocation of JumboTron, addition of high-quality synthetic playing surface on Dudley Field |

On February 6, 2012; Williams announced Vanderbilt would be adding new FieldTurf and a new JumboTron. A large "berm" was constructed in the open end of Vanderbilt Stadium as a place for fans to watch games starting fall 2012. The project, in addition to other renovations, began after the Black & Gold scrimmage on April 14, 2012.
With only 500 seats are available, the hillside is a first come, first serve area in terms of picking a spot to sit. The berm will not reach the permanent seating on the sidelines to leave space in the corners of the end zone for fans to enter.
The fourth major project set for the stadium was improved lighting. Renovations were also completed at McGugin Center, with new meeting rooms and Olympic sport locker rooms built. The work was completed in the summer of 2012.
Since the 2007 season, midshipmen of the Vanderbilt Naval ROTC sound a foghorn whenever the Commodores take the field, as well as after every score and win.
NFL use[edit]
Upon moving to Nashville, the Oilers/Titans franchise initially played at the larger Liberty Bowl Memorial Stadium in Memphis while LP Field (then called Adelphia Coliseum) was under construction in Nashville. Initially, the Oilers were unwilling to play at Vanderbilt Stadium while LP Field was being built. Not only was it thought to be too small even for temporary use, but university officials were unwilling to allow the sale of alcohol.
However, dismal attendance during the 1997 season— due in part to both the unwillingness of many Nashville fans to make the trip to Memphis and Memphis fans unwilling to support a Nashville-based team after years of failing to secure their own NFL franchise— led the Oilers to play their last season under that name in Nashville at Vanderbilt Stadium, although the university forbade the franchise from selling alcohol at home games.
Vanderbilt Stadium thus became the smallest home venue in the NFL since several similar-size stadiums were used in 1970. The merger agreement with the American Football League led the NFL to declare stadiums seating fewer than 50,000 fans to be inadequate for league play.
Non-sporting events[edit]
Over its history, Vanderbilt Stadium has occasionally been used for concerts and major speakers.[10] Those events include:
- Billy Graham - September 19, 1954 and June 24–27, 1979
- John F. Kennedy - May 18, 1963
- Pink Floyd - May 8, 1994
- The Rolling Stones - October 26, 1997
- Dave Matthews Band - April 25, 2009
- U2 & Florence And The Machine - July 2, 2011

Is there a certain type of person who collects and categorizes things? I've collected a few hundred pictures from Think Atheist and some other websites. I have the pictures put into categories. For example, belief, evil, evolution, intelligent design, jesus, marriage, morality, prayer, yaweh, etc.
A lot of times when I get into a computer discussion with a theist, I will just send a picture as a rebuttal to their arguments. It saves a lot of typing for me and it seems to really piss of some of them.
I really like this picture. I added it to my collection.
Works for me, too!
Tim thats a great idea... i'd love to get a copy of your collection... you could put them all in folders on imgur or something...
I'll trade you for my wallpaper collection :)
A coffee table book!
Me, too!

For US students, it's a great school in a lovely place with enough cultural differences to be an experience without being overwhelming. After all, they speak the same language! (Well, actually...)

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"Loved the design, loved being able to customize the colors - quality did not change with the change in color. Great product - exactly what I was looking for."
"I ordered these to match our engagement party invites. They are really simple and perfect for what we needed. I love that they match, that is so cute and I can't wait till after the event sending these out and everyone seeing how adorable they are!"
"We personalized this thank you postcard with some photos from our wedding and it looks so cute - we can't wait to send them to our families and friends!"
"Very professional looking postcards with a great layout if you can't pick only one photo to have on your Thank YOu cards. And if you're thinking of sending it overseas (like we did) and want to protect the front pictures, add A2 envelopes to your order as they fit the postcards perfectly."
"Great Postcard, As other reviewers were saying a little smaller than the average but I expected that. Paper and photo quality was very good. I availed of the review service and so glad I did as I needed to change a couple of photos, this was no problem to the team which was great. The international delivery service was very prompt. The only negative I would say is that the proof wasn't 100% the same as the printed product, one photo got a little more trimmed than I thought it would and one wasn't 100% centered but that is just nit-picking. I also got a pink background which looked Great!"

Sundays At Savikko kick off in Douglas this weekend Published: 07/08/2010 18:35:12 Concerts In The Park is a Juneau tradition over 20 years old. On Friday evenings during the summer, the free concerts at downtown Juneau's Marine Park showcase local performance talent, and now Douglas is getting it's own event. The Pioneer Pavilion was built at Savikko Park by the 4th of July Committee last year, and beginning this Sunday, it will host "Sundays At Savikko". Kari Groven is the Program Coordinator at the Juneau Arts and Humanities Council, she explained "the plan is, bring your picnic gear, your family; just sit down, eat, socialize, listen to the music, watch the dancers whoever are performing. Take off to Sandy Beach afterwards, or go to Sandy Beach before; just make a full day out of it." The free open air concerts are a collaboration between the Juneau Arts & Humanities Council, and the Juneau Parks and Rec department, they are an opportunity to see some of the talent in town. Groven gave some examples: "We have singers, dancers, storytellers, big bands, little bands, duos, singer-songwriters, poets; and it's just amazing to me how rich this community is in the arts." Even before the first concert this Sunday, response has been positive. "I've gotten a lot of response from Douglas people in particular, that are just excited that they can stroll down the road and go to an event just in the neighborhood" said Groven. The concerts run from 4:30 to 6pm, and will take place every Sunday through August 15th. If it rains, the events move to the Douglas Methodist Church. This Sunday's concert features an all Douglas cast of performers. http://www.jahc.org/ By: Mikko Wilson - email@example.com |

Stock Market Today: With Dow at Record High, Will the Climb Last?
The Dow Jones Industrial Average was at a record high after nearly six years, as the stock market today (Tuesday) rallied enough to push the index up nearly 70 points at the open.
Just minutes after the opening bell, the Dow sailed passed its all-time high of 14,165 hit on Oct. 9, 2007. Less than a half-hour into the trading session the Dow roared higher by triple digits propelling benchmark to yet another record.
By 1 p.m. the Dow was up 146.99, or 1.04%, at 14,274.81. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index added 17.32 or 1.14%, to 1,542.52, leaving it in striking distance if its record close of 1,565 hit in 2007. The Nasdaq climbed 43.39 or 1.37% to 3,225.42.
Money has poured into stocks over the last several months as individuals have begun to feel more comfortable about the health of the economy - but can it last?
"The question is, can the Dow maintain these levels? The market is interested in risk-that's why the Dow is higher, why the riskier currencies are higher," Matthew Lifson, currency trader at Cambridge Mercantile Group in Princeton told Reuters.

Does the Heinz Deal Mean Warren Buffett Has Become a Doomsday Prepper?
At first sight, Warren Buffett's deal with the Brazilian-led private equity firm 3G Capital to purchase H.J. Heinz Company (NYSE:HNZ) looks strange.
At $28 billion the famed ketchup maker is valued at a rich 23 times earnings, and Buffett won't even control the management, which is to be left to 3G. Given Warren's long and storied history, something doesn't make sense.
But maybe he's become a doomsday prepper.
In the age of Ben Bernanke, canned baked beans and the like seem to make as the ideal investment. Or maybe Buffett feels that the dollar is about to be wiped out by hyperinflation.
Of course, in those circumstances, you would normally buy gold, but maybe Buffett believes that the crash will be so severe that the economy as a whole will break down.
In that case, you'd want guns and ammunition. Buffett's holding company Berkshire Hathaway (NYSE:BRK-A and BRK-B) does not own a gun manufacturer, but a subsidiary manufactures shoes under license from Browning Arms Company, so no doubt a deal could be done.
However, an even more strategic asset in such an event would be imperishable canned food, and you can certainly imagine a gigantic stockpile of Heinz 57 varieties being accumulated in warehouses around Omaha, maybe accompanied by a lake of ketchup, allowing Buffett to corner the market in baked beans and condiments.

As Insiders Head For the Exits, Do They Know Something "We" Don't Know?
Whenever the markets begin to look toppy like they do now, I turn to short-term indicators to help me figure out "what's next" for the markets. It complements the fundamental analysis I rely on for the big picture.
Some people - lots of people, in fact - will tell you that this is a wasted exercise. Predicting the markets, they say, can't be done. I disagree if for no other reason that if that were true, guys like Jim Rogers, Warren Buffett, Steve Jobs, Richard Branson and Carlos Slim wouldn't be the legends they are today.
As I see it, learning to "read" the markets and anticipate its twists and turns is absolutely possible.
But let me qualify my statement. My goal is not necessarily to be "right."
