    Dont buy it

    By Cheryl  Feb 8, 2007 | 6 out of 6 found this Maytag Ice2O MFI2568AES review helpful

    Pros: Cool Looking, Great use of space

    Cons: Low quality, constant problems

    I bought mine from home depot 8 mos ago. Loved it when I got it, but soon after had problems with the ice maker. they replaced the ice maker. Now the ice maker is still having problems. Its not strong enough to break up all the ice. the ice cubes fre...eze in big blocks causing the system to clog. Last night the thing took on a mind of its own. All the lights are flashing on the control panel, the ice and water maker dont work at all. The flap is constantly opening and closing all on its own, constantly making a clicking noise all night long. Finally we had to unplug it so we could get 4 hours sleep. Plug it in this morning and its still doing it. My biggest concern is what happens after the warrenty runs out. I already know this thing has mechanical problems. Did I get a lemon or is it junk?? Either way Im stuck with a $2,800 refridgerator that seems like it has bad engineering. Read more Less

    SMaytag Ice20 Junk, Don't Buy, Run,Awful, No Help

    By jUDY  Jun 12, 2008 | 4 out of 4 found this Maytag Ice2O MFI2568AES review helpful

    Pros: None Anymore

    Cons: Name it; gave it 1 star since we can't use zeros

    Bought this refrigerator at Sears; we had been wanting this style for quite a while and it took us some time to save up the money, just to find we had put all the effort into getting hosed badly. Have experienced the problems in every other review o...n this site. Icemaker works intermittently, MOBO fried itself and none of our food stays cold. Just lost everything and we're being told it's going to be north of $500 just to replace it's brains. Haven't even gotten to the dead icemaker yet. It's been downhill since day 1; it was delivered DOA and it took over A MONTH to get it in service. MOBO was dead then, as well as the compressor. Now that it's 13 months old, dead again. I'm not usually one for conspiracy theories, but I'm ready to believe this thing has preprogrammed failure modes. We will never, EVER let anything Maytag into this house again, and will make it a point to convey our experiences with this sorry company to anyone who will listen, wherever and whenever we can. You think they could at least yank that damphool repairman out of wherever he's jerking off and put him in the QC department, then they'd have one. Read more Less

    Ice2O I love it...

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 6, 2006 | 4 out of 4 found this Maytag Ice2O MFI2568AES review helpful

    Pros: water & Ice on the door, milk compartment stays cooler

    Cons: ice sometimes misses the glass, not a real big ice capacity

    I love the refrigerator, got a 450 dollar discount at Home Depot on it, plus a 200 dollar gift card, and free delivery. On top of all of that, 12 months no payments no interest with the home depot card. Delivery guys were 2 hours late, and took over... 2 hours to install. Very nice guys, just the slowest people I ever saw. the refrigerator fills the spot nicely in our kitchen, and the way we built it, it looks like a counter depth unit. there is no unacceptable noise levels like I heard from some reviews. My wine chiller makes more noise than this unit! the ice cubes sometimes miss even the largest pitchers/glasses which can be frustrating, but the overall layout and design is perfect.

    Maytag control panel is defective

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 5, 2007 | 3 out of 3 found this Maytag Ice2O MFI2568AES review helpful

    Pros: Looks great!

    Cons: It has defective parts

    I suggest you do a keyword search using these words: control panel problems maytag refrigerator. My ice dispenser door would flap and the light panels blink off and on. I replaced the control panel and was told Maytag was on their 3rd design of the c...ontrol panel because they continued to have problems with it. Now the icemaker water flow won't stop, the ice backs up, and this morning I had gushing water all over my hardwood floors. I called Maytag corporate offices and they are covering my charges. I asked them why they didn't do a product recall and they said they are watching it. I wouldn't recommend this refrigerator as Maytag is not the same manufacture with the Lonely Repairman as we all remember. That's why the company was sold several years ago. Read more Less

    Maytag Ice2O solutions to problems

    By Edward  Nov 4, 2007 | 3 out of 3 found this Maytag Ice2O MFI2568AES review helpful

    Pros: give you an idea on fix

    Cons: no warrenty, contract coverage your SOL(maybe)

    The Ice2O is certainly a pretty neat design on a fridge but, lets be hononest this fridge is a bad idea from some engineers that need to go back to their crayons and coloring books and figure out a better design. If your icemaker is jamming get a sho...rt phillip screw driver take off the front cover of the IM and turn the filltiming screw till the screw is a hair left of the center line, dont worry it's easy and may save you a service call. If you need to get a jam out of the ice fingers (what pushes out the ice) do it carefulling if your fingers get cought in it during rotation, YAH will hurt. If your desp. front is blinking and the ice chute door is flapping take the cap off the top hinge of the lft. side door and disconnect till a repair can be done (will save your sanity). IN THIS CASE it's the high voltage control board has shorted and the ONLY repair is a new board. If your out of warrenty or have no extended coverage call Maytag/Whirlpool and try your best to get a concession on part and labor of repair other wise prepare for a bill over $300. Nuff said for now, hope I helped. Just your friendly neighborhood fridge tech.. Read more Less

    Another Failed Unit

    By Michael  Jun 15, 2008 | 1 out of 1 found this Maytag Ice2O MFI2568AES review helpful

    Pros: Lots of space- fridge and freezer

    Cons: Electronics (control panel)

    Our lasted 2 years almost to the date of purchase (from Sears) before the dreaded ice door flapping began. Not only did the electronics panel go bad, but the cooling (condenser?) fan went as well. This means no cooling what so ever. Luckily (I think...) we purchased the extended warranty from Sears. I've waited 6 days so far to get it fixed! We had a tech. out the day after it failed and he said the soonest they could come back to install the parts (which I've had a for a couple of days) would be a week!! What a bunch of B.S.! Sure I won't have to pay for repairs but ONE full day off of work so far to wait for a 10 minute diagnosis, and a refrigerator that's been dead for nearly a week just doesn't justify the cost of a crappy extended warranty. Steer clear of Sears, their extended warranty charade and Maytag in general. Read more Less

    JUNK, DSPOSABLE

    By LISA  Apr 27, 2008 | 1 out of 1 found this Maytag Ice2O MFI2568AES review helpful

    Pros: LOTS OF STORAGE SPACE

    Cons: YOU BETTER BUY THE WARRANTY

    I BOUGHT THIS REFRIGERATOR AND TO THE DATE 12 1/2 MONTHS LATER THE REFRIGERATOR STARTED MAKING A FLAPPING SOUND FROM THE ICE MAKER AND COMPLETELY DID NOT COOL ANYMORE, I DIDN'T BUY THE WARRANTY AND THEY CHARGED ME $186.00 JU8ST TO GIVE ME A DIAGN...OSIS AND THE FEE TO FIX IT WAS 482.00 AND THAT IS NOT EVEN A GAURANTEE THAT THERE IS NOT SOMETHING ELSE WRONG. DONT BUY THIS PRODUCT. IT'S A RIP OFF. Read more Less

    Maytag ice maker/water dispenser issue

    By Dennis  Jun 18, 2007 | 1 out of 1 found this Maytag Ice2O MFI2568AES review helpful

    Pros: nice look

    Cons: unreliable, poor service

    My Maytag Model # MFI2568AES begins to make flashing panel flapping icemaker noise constantly yesterday which is 11 month after the purchase. There is no water flow or ice making even thought the water line connection outside the frig is good. Upon r...eading comments online, I found too many people having the same experience. I wish I had known this issue before this expensive purchase. This issue appears to be wide spread and might be class action worthy. The service experience from others are not very encouraging. I am not looking forward to wait for weeks before parts arrive. Read more Less

    Maytag Model MF 12568AES

    By Taylor  Jun 20, 2008

    Pros: Looks Good

    Cons: Poor Quality

    I bought the refrigarator new in July of 06. Control panel went out in April of 08. Maytag customer service response was
    "its out of warrenty". Cost me $600.00 dollars to repair.

    Everyone has this one problem, but no support

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Apr 23, 2008

    Pros: Nice Looking, functional, quiet motor, well laid out

    Cons: Ice/water dispenser died. Ice maker is loud

    If you have this fridge you probably have already experienced (or soon will) the dreaded ice door flapping and flashing lights. A well documented problem caused by bad capacitors in the power supply board. Maytag is refusing to acknowledge this and i...ssue a recall, probably because it has yet to cause any safety concerns and it's cheaper to just ignore complaints. My suggestion if you have already purchased this fridge, don't buy any parts from Maytag but rather search the forums for the $5 fix, any of course don't buy anything ever again with the Maytag label.
