The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements
have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to
Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not
include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair
presentation have been included.  Operating results for the nine month
period ended September 30, 1994 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1994.  For
further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and
footnotes included in the Maytag Corporation annual report on Form 10-K
for the year ended December 31, 1993.

Commencing with the first quarter of 1994, the Company changed its method
of allocating certain components of income and expense to its industry
segments and in compiling its geographic information.  The Company is now
allocating to its business units certain income and expenses that
previously were allocated to "Corporate".  Certain industry segment and
geographic information for the third quarter and first nine months of 1993
identified below has been restated to reflect this change.  The effect of
this change is not material.

Currently, certain subsidiaries located outside the United States are
consolidated as of a date one month earlier than subsidiaries in the
United States.  Effective December 31, 1994, this one month difference
will be eliminated for the subsidiaries located in Europe.  The effect of
this change is not expected to be material to either the Company's
consolidated or European earnings, but it will increase the sales in the
fourth quarter and full year of 1994 as compared to the fourth quarter and
full year of 1993.

Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations.


COMPARISON OF 1994 WITH 1993

Net sales in the third quarter of 1994 increased over the third quarter of
1993 primarily as a result of the increase in sales of the North American
Appliance Group, as well as higher sales by Dixie-Narco, the Company's
vending equipment operation.  The North American Appliance Group had sales
of $678.3 million, up 11.0 percent from sales of $611.2 million in the
third quarter of 1993.  The increase in sales of this group is primarily
due to industry growth, volume increases from market share gains in
virtually all product categories and the introduction of new products. 
Year-over-year growth in sales of this group is expected for the remainder
of the year, but at a lower level than was experienced in the first three
quarters.  Dixie-Narco's sales in the third quarter were up 20.4 percent,
from $39.8 million in 1993 to $48 million in 1994 due to increased demand



                                     7

for its core soft drink vending machines and the sales of its new glass
door merchandiser.  Sales by the Hoover European Appliance Group ("Hoover
Europe") were $82.9 million in the third quarter of 1994, compared to
$85.4 million in the third quarter of 1993.

The increase in net sales for the first nine months of 1994 is primarily
due to the increase in year-to-date net sales in the North American
Appliance Group of 15.7 percent to $1,995.7 million, partially offset by
the decrease in net sales of Hoover Europe of 10.5 percent to $259.3
million in 1994 from $289.8 million in the same period in 1993.  Dixie-
Narco's sales also contributed to the year-over-year sales improvement by
increasing 19.3 percent to $149.3 million in the nine month period.
 
The improvement in gross margin in both the third quarter and nine months
is primarily the result of improved volume-related production
efficiencies, reduced material costs from a coordinated purchasing
program, favorable product mix, and new products in the North American
Appliance Group.  In addition, margins in Hoover Europe improved due to
lower operating costs from completion of the floorcare plant
consolidation, lower levels of employment and reduced material costs.  

Third quarter and first nine months selling, general and administrative
expenses (SG&A) increased over 1993 (excluding the special charge
described below)  primarily to support the higher sales volumes.  In the
first quarter of 1993, the Company recognized a one-time $50 million
pretax charge ($30 million aftertax or $0.28 per share) for two Hoover
Europe free flights promotion programs ("free flights promotion"). 
Excluding the free flights promotion, SG&A expenses were $383.7 million or
17.1 percent of sales for the first nine months of 1993.
 
The improvement in consolidated operating income in the third quarter of
1994 over the same period in the prior year was primarily due to the North
American Appliance Group, which increased to $86.8 million, up 32.6
percent from $65.5 million a year ago.  The operating loss for Hoover
Europe was $0.9 million in the third quarter of 1994 compared to a loss of
$8 million during the comparable period in 1993.  Cost containment
programs have contributed to the improvement year-over-year.  Dixie-Narco
had third quarter operating income of $5.5 million compared to $4.5
million a year ago.  Excluding the charge for the free flights promotion,
consolidated 1993 nine month operating income would have been $161.4
million, or 7.2 percent of sales. 

In the third quarter of 1994, the Company recorded a tax benefit in the
United States associated with the funding of operating losses and
reorganization costs in Europe over the past several years.  This benefit
reduced the Company's tax expense in the third quarter by $20 million or
$0.19 per share.  Excluding the effects of this transaction, the effective
tax rate was 42% in the nine months ending September 30, 1994, compared to
43% in the comparable period in 1993.

The $.03 per share charge to record the cumulative effect of an accounting
change in the first nine months of 1994 reflects the mandatory adoption of
an accounting pronouncement, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 112 "Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits," which the
Company adopted effective January 1, 1994.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The increase in accounts receivable since December 31, 1993 is primarily
due to higher sales volumes and an increase in days outstanding in the
North American Appliance Group.   Other noncurrent assets increased from
December 31, 1993 primarily due to the recording of receivables for
certain income tax carrybacks and an increase in long-term financing notes
to appliance and vending equipment customers.

The liability for compensation to employees decreased since year-end due
to payments made in the first nine months in connection with the European
reorganization announced in 1992.  Other noncurrent liabilities increased
from year-end principally due to ongoing charges for pensions and ongoing
postretirement medical expenses.

The increase in net cash provided by operations in the first nine months
of 1994 compared to 1993 was a result of increased earnings which included
higher non-cash charges relating to depreciation, amortization,
postretirement medical and pensions.  The decrease in net deferred income
tax assets results primarily from the first nine months of 1993 reflecting
the deferred tax benefit for the free flights promotion and certain
reclassifications made in both periods.  Offsetting this improvement was a
use of cash for increases in inventory and receivables, and payments for
the free flights promotion and the Company's North American and European
reorganizations.  Current liabilities increased mainly to support the
additional inventory and due to a change in the timing of health care
payments. 

The lower capital expenditures for the first nine months of 1994 compared
to 1993 resulted from more projects being in a developmental stage in
1994, compared to projects in an implementation stage in 1993.  Full year
capital expenditures for 1994 are expected to be less than depreciation. 
However, compliance with current and anticipated laws and regulations
governing product performance related to the protection of the environment
and various cost improvement projects are expected to significantly
increase capital expenditures over the next five years.  Although the
amounts are not known at this time, the total annual capital spending is
expected to exceed depreciation in these years.

In the fourth quarter, a customer of the North American Appliance Group
filed for protection from creditors under the bankruptcy code.  A portion
of the amount owed to the Company may not be collectible, however the loss
is not expected to be material.
