When shopping for and selecting laundry appliances, this consumer:
Amana®
• Wants something simple and straightforward to save her time, make her life easier and cut down on her workload.
• Wants quality appliances that can handle large capacities and frequent, heavy usage.
• Has a practical mindset. She is not interested in appliances with advanced technological features that may add to the purchase price
or complexity.
• Is looking for a good value. She wants a brand with a good reputation that will save her money while being durable and reliable.
• Is less involved. She doesn’t spend a lot of time shopping or researching for a new appliance. Most of her research takes place in
the store environment.
• Traditionally buys appliances to replace, not upgrade. Almost 2/3 of this target bought to replace a broken appliance.
Maytag®
• Is willing to pay for quality, but wants proof. She looks for benefits rather than redundant features and rejects the “bells and
whistles” that just add cost and breakdown potential.
• Puts a lot of time into researching appliances and will shop around to find the right product at the right price.
• Avoids complexity, particularly in laundry. She cares about the end product — clean clothes — but doesn’t want to think about
the process.
