MDB-7 specifications

The Maytag MDB-7 series dishwashers are a reliable choice for households looking for efficient cleaning performance and advanced features. Known for their robust build quality and user-friendly design, these dishwashers are often spotlighted for their ability to tackle tough stains and reduce noise levels during operation.

One of the standout features of the MDB-7 is its powerful wash system, which includes a high-pressure spray arm that maximizes water coverage.

Maytag has meticulously engineered the appliance to include sound-dampening materials, ensuring that it fits seamlessly into the workflow of a busy household.

The interior of the MDB-7 is equally impressive. It features a flexible rack system, offering adjustable top and bottom racks to accommodate a variety of dish sizes, including tall pots and stemware. The stainless-steel interior not only provides durability but also enhances drying performance by retaining heat.

In terms of user experience, the MDB-7 boasts easy-to-use controls and a sleek exterior design. It often includes a delayed start option, enabling users to schedule washes at their convenience.
