HERITAGE &
W ARRANTY
Frederick Louis Maytag grasped the notion of the American Dream long before he built his first
kitchen appliance. In the late 19th century, as a 16-year-old field hand, he saw an opportunity to
create safe, labour-saving tools to do the work traditionally done by hand. By 1893 he had joined
forces with his two brothers-in-law and George W. Parsons, opening their first factory in Newton,
Iowa and going on to pr
oduce, not only the best farm implements in America, but also the world’s
premier home appliances. Throughout the 20th century the company was at the forefront of many
industry-wide debuts, the first being the r
evolutionary ‘Pastime’ wooden tub washer, followed
shortly by the introduction of the electrically powered washer. Maytag even produced the breathing
equipment for the 1963 Mount Everest expedition. Now, more than 100 years after its humble
beginnings, Maytag still spearheads the development of laundry, dishwashing and refrigeration
categories worldwide and is renowned for combining time-honoured craftsmanship with modern
technology and contemporary styling...unfailingly serving its customers by meeting their
expectations for long-lasting and dependable products.
