            Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
                               June 30, 1994
                                (Unaudited)


Basis of Presentation

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 six month period ended June
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". The effect of this change is not
material and certain industry segment and geographic information for the
second quarter and first six months of 1993 identified below has been
restated to reflect this change.

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


COMPARISON OF 1994 WITH 1993

Net sales in the second quarter of 1994 increased over the second 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 $686.5 million, up 20.8 percent from sales of $568.4 million
in the second quarter of 1993.  The increase in sales of that group is
primarily due to volume increases from market share gains in virtually all
product categories and the introduction of new products.  Year-over-year
growth in sales of that group is expected for the remainder of the year,
but at a lower level than was experienced in the first and second quarters. 
Dixie-Narco's sales in the second quarter were up 26.7 percent, from $47.5
million in 1993 to $60.2 million in 1994 due to sales to a customer that
are not expected to continue this year and the introduction of a new
product.  The Company expects to offset the loss of sales to this customer
in the second half with greater sales of the new product.  Sales by the
Hoover European Appliance Group ("Hoover Europe") were $87 million in the
second quarter of 1994, compared to $101.3 million in the second quarter of
1993. This decrease is due to a loss of market share in the United Kingdom,
along with foreign currency fluctuations.

The increase in net sales for the first half of 1994 is primarily due to
the increase in year-to-date net sales in the North American Appliance





                                     7
<PAGE>
Group of $203.2 million or 18.2 percent, partially offset by the decrease
in net sales of Hoover Europe of $28.1 million or 13.7 percent from the
same period in 1993.  Dixie-Narco's sales also contributed to the year-
over-year sales improvement by increasing 18.8 percent to $101.4 million in
the six month period.
 
The improvement in gross margin in both the second quarter and six months 
is primarily the result of improved volume-related production efficiencies,
reduced material costs from a coordinated purchasing program, and favorable
product mix 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.  

Second quarter and first half 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 $.28 per share) for two Hoover Europe free flights
promotion programs ("free flights promotion").  Excluding the free flights
promotion, SG&A expenses were $253 million or 17.2 percent of sales for the
first six months of 1993.
 
The improvement in consolidated operating income in the second quarter of
1994 over the prior year was primarily due to the North American Appliance
Group, which increased to $84.3 million, up 46.6 percent from $57.5 million
a year ago.  Operating income for Hoover Europe was $2.2 million in the
second quarter of 1994 compared to a loss of $3.6 million during the
comparable period in 1993.  Poor economic conditions in parts of Europe
continue to impact Hoover Europe's results.  However, cost containment
programs have contributed to the improvement year-over-year.  Dixie-Narco
had second quarter operating income of $8.1 million compared to $6.6
million a year ago.  Excluding the charge for the free flights promotion in
the first quarter of 1993, consolidated six month operating income would
have been $103.6 million, or 7 percent of sales. 

The year-to-date decrease in the Company's effective tax rate is due to
higher losses in Europe in 1993 which received a lower tax benefit and
resulted in an increase in the worldwide effective tax rate in 1993.

Excluding the free flights promotion charge ($30 million aftertax) in 1993,
the year-to-date income before cumulative effect of accounting change for
1993 would have been $40.8 million or $.38 per share.     

The $.03 per share cumulative effect of accounting change in the first six
months of 1994 relates to the mandatory adoption of an accounting
pronouncement, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 112
"Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits"(FAS 112), 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 in the North American Appliance Group. 
Inventory increases since year-end are primarily due to higher production
volumes in the North American Appliance Group to support increased demand. 
Other noncurrent assets increased from December 31, 1993 primarily due to
the recording of receivables for certain income tax carrybacks and an





                                     8
<PAGE>


increase in long-term financing notes to vending equipment customers.

The liability for compensation to employees decreased since year-end due to
payments made in the first six 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 the 
liability recognized as the result of the adoption of FAS 112.

The decrease in net cash used in operations in the first six 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 (due to a decline in the discount rate).  The decrease
in net deferred income tax assets results primarily from the first six
months of 1993 reflecting the deferred tax benefit for the free flights
promotion and certain reclassifications made in both periods between
current taxes payable.  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 primarily to support the additional inventory
and receivables. 

The lower capital expenditures for the first six months of 1994 compared to
1993 resulted from a change in the timing of spending.  Full year planned
capital expenditures for 1994 approximate $110 million.  Compliance with
current and anticipated laws and regulations governing product performance
related to the protection of the environment is 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.

The net cash used for operations, capital expenditures, dividends, and the
reduction in debt (long term and current maturities) in the first six
months of 1994 was funded through an increase in notes payable (primarily
commercial paper borrowings).

On May 23, 1994, the Company announced its intention to divest its Hoover
operations in Australia and New Zealand, preferably by way of an initial
public stock offering of its combined Australian subsidiaries.  The ongoing
impact on the Company's income statement from the loss of Australian
earnings is not considered material.  As of June 30, 1994, part of the
unrecognized loss reported in Shareowners' Equity as Foreign Currency
Translation is attributable to the Australia and New Zealand operations. 
This amount will require recognition in the Company's earnings when the
divestiture is completed.  Depending on the amount of the proceeds realized
from the divestiture, the transaction could result in a one-time loss which
is estimated not to exceed $.08 per share.  However, the overall impact on
earnings from the divestiture is not determinable at this time.
 
On July 14, 1994, the Company entered into a new credit agreement with a
consortium of banks which provide revolving credit facilities totaling $300
million.  This agreement, which replaces the two previous credit
agreements, has a four year term and includes covenants for interest
coverage and leverage.  It does not include the covenant in the previous
agreements requiring the Company to maintain certain minimum levels of
tangible net worth.

     During the first quarter of 1994, the Company changed its allocation of
     certain income and expense items between Corporate and its business units. 
     The Company's first quarter and second quarter 1994 earnings releases
     reported operating income for these business units under the revised basis
     for the first and second quarters of 1993, but not for any of the other
     interim periods in 1993.  The table below shows 1993 operating income for
     the Company's North American and European business units, both as reported
     during interim periods in 1993 and as restated:
