Maytag Side by Side Refrigerators

Here are the top Maytag Side by Side Refrigerator Models

Maytag Side by Side Refrigerators are quite similar in quality and price to models made by GE, LG, or Amana, but Maytag stands alone with a number of popular side by side refrigerator models that rate well with both consumers and product reviewers like us.

Because there are so many Maytag Side by Side Refrigerators to choose from, we chose to narrow down the field by choosing only those refrigerators that received the highest consumer reviews and consumer rankings. We then combined that information with what we found when we did our own Refrigerator Reviews and Refrigerator Ratings.

When you're looking at a Maytag Side by Side Refrigerator, there are a few things you'll want to take into consideration before making your purchase.

CAPACITY NEEDS: Most Maytag Side by Side models have about 25 cubic feet of storage space. You'll need to figure out just how much storage space you'll need. Questions to ask are is your family growing or shrinking? The standard rule of thumb is about 10 cu. sq. feet per two people.

STYLE CHOICES: Maytag refrigerators are all in all well styled models that give any kitchen a decorative boost. But you need to consider what type of fridge will go best with your existing decor. Keep in mind that Maytag side by side refrigerators come in Stainless Steel, Black, White, and Bisque only. If you're looking for built in panels or more custom colors, you may want to consider refrigerators from Jenn Air or Kitchenaid instead.

EFFICIENCY: Maytag Refrigerators are for the most part, all Energy Star Compliant. In this time of climate change, this is definitely an issue we should all take into consideration.

DURABILITY: Although Maytag was once synonymous with reliability, the brand has honestly had their troubles over the past five years or so. However, they have since turned a corner since being acquired by Whirlpool in 2006. Maytag is once again a strong brand in the reliability category.

If you have any questions on any other considerations you should take into account before purchasing a new refrigerator, be sure to check out our Refrigerator Buying Guide which will help you find the Best Refrigerator for your specific needs.


Best Rated Maytag Side by Side Refrigerators

The Maytag Side by Side Refrigerator models vary greatly from model to model. There are a number of features you may want to consider, everything from ice/water dispensers to crank adjustable shelving (shelving that you can adjust higher or lower simply with the turn of a small hand crank).

Here are the side by side refrigerators we recommend from Maytag:



1. The Maytag MZD2666KES MZD2666KES Maytag 26 Cu. Ft. Wide By Side Refrigerator - Stainless Steel, White or Black :

This was one of the more popular models with consumers. It's a bit more expensive than some of the other Maytag Side by Side refrigerator models, but it delivers.



PROS: We found that the Electronic Dual Cool™ system with its upfront controls and two thermostats provided optimal freshness for all your food items.

The QuietSeries™ 200 sound package worked much better on this unit than on others we've tested (where noise was a problem)

The Elevator™ shelf which rolls up and down to accommodate tall items is one of our favorite Maytag features. If only it was in more of their models!

This particular model also had the widest available shelf space available in a traditional side-by-side.

CONS: Once again, the factory installed ice maker in this unit was also a bit slow.

The Tilt Down Wire Freezer baskets seemed to "freeze" and it made it difficult for us to access products in these bins.



2. The Maytag MSD2652KES (ALSO KNOWN AS THE AMANA MSD2652KEU) - MSD2652KES Maytag 26 cu. ft. Side-By-Side Refrigerator w/ Electronic Ice/Water Dispenser - UltraFinish Steel :

One of the benefits of Maytag being a part of the Whirlpool family, is that they can blend the best of all worlds into a single refrigerator model. This is one of the most affordable in this class and the feature list is as long as Billy the Kid's rap sheet!



PROS: The electronic cubed/crushed ice and water dispenser also has a water filter change reminder and lock.

The radius styling gives this Maytag refrigerator a smooth design for an added touch of style.

The Textured doors and cabinet minimize fingerprints.

The top to floor foam insulation on this unit makes it extremely energy efficient and it's also ENERGY STAR qualified which means it exceeds federal energy efficiency standards by 15%.

This unit also has the Adjustable Spill-Catcher™ shelves which has the sealed edges that help contain spills for quick and easy cleanup.

The EasyGlide™ shelves glide out so items in the back can be retrieved easily .

CONS: The ice maker in this unit was also a bit slow. We found this pretty much across the board with the Maytag models.

3. The Maytag MSD2656KES MSD2656KES Maytag 26 Cu. Ft. Side by Side Refrigerator - Stainless Steel:

This is one of the few Maytag refrigerator models that Consumer Reports rated quite highly on their list. We have to agree; it's a solid side by side refrigerator model and definitely one to consider.



PROS: One fun feature was the Refrigerator Pak beverage organizer which securely holds most 12-pack beverage boxes for easy dispensing.

The Sealed FreshLock Crisper drawer was one of the best in this class at keeping food fresher longer.

It also has Beverage Chiller™ compartment which keeps drinks colder than the rest of the refrigerator.

The Adjustable Spill-Catcher™ shelves have sealed edges that contain spills for quick and easy cleanup.

CONS: The factory installed icemaker was just so-so at making ice and this fridge was a bit noisier than was expected.
