Washer was making a horrible noise. The tech arrived on time, diagnosed the issue quickly (worn bearing), and completed the repair efficiently. Very knowledgeable and reasonably priced. Will definitely use them again.

Our LG dryer stopped heating. Called Max Appliance and they were able to fit us in the same day. The repair was done professionally and the price was exactly what they quoted over the phone. Very satisfied with the service.
Excellent service! Our Whirlpool refrigerator was leaking water. The technician arrived within the scheduled window, quickly identified the problem, and had the parts needed in his truck. Fixed it on the spot. Very pleased!
Called them for our Maytag washer that wouldn't spin. They came out same day, tech was friendly and professional. Fixed the issue and gave us maintenance tips to prevent future problems. Fair pricing too. Would recommend!
Our KitchenAid oven stopped working right before Thanksgiving. Max Appliance saved the day! Same-day service, professional technician, and reasonable rates. We were so relieved. Thank you!

Very responsive and professional. Our freezer stopped working and they came out within hours. The technician was knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. Repair was done quickly and hasn't had any issues since.
Hyde Park bungalows from the 1940s pack utility closets tight — zero clearance, kinked flex duct, no wall access. Shove a Samsung front-load into one of those corners and the heating element burns out by July. Austin summers are brutal on dryers even in newer builds; ambient temps in a garage or interior closet push these machines harder than any spec sheet assumes.
East Austin (zip 78702) has some of the oldest housing stock in the city — 1920s and 30s craftsman homes where laundry was clearly an afterthought. Vent runs here go long and horizontal through walls and crawlspaces, which means lint buildup is constant. Mueller and the newer Circle C Ranch developments are the opposite: 2010s-era homes with short exterior vent runs and brand-new Whirlpool or LG units still inside the manufacturer window.
Common Dryer Issues in Austin
Thermal Fuse Failures in South Austin's Un-Airconditioned Utility Rooms
Zilker and Barton Hills homes often have utility rooms that hit 100°F+ in summer with no AC and no ventilation. That ambient heat combined with a restricted exhaust duct causes the thermal fuse to blow repeatedly. On Whirlpool and Maytag machines the part itself costs under $20, but the underlying vent restriction is always the real problem.
Drum Won't Spin — Drive Belt and Drum Roller Wear
A dryer that hums but won't tumble almost always has a broken drive belt or flattened drum rollers. GE and Samsung units from 2015-2020 see this failure frequently around the 5-7 year mark. Drum roller bearings flatten from sustained heat cycles first, then the belt snaps shortly after. Both parts are in stock for most common models.
Blower Wheel Clogged from Long Vent Runs in 78704
Older homes in zip 78704 collect lint at every duct bend — eventually that restriction backs into the blower wheel housing. The wheel clogs, airflow drops, and drying times double. LG's front-load dryers are particularly sensitive to this; the blower wheel on those models is harder to access but absolutely worth a clean every two years.
