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
three  month period ended March 31, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the
results that may be expected for the year ended December 31, 1995.  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, 1994.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' financial statements to
conform with the 1995 presentation.

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


COMPARISON OF 1995 WITH 1994

NET SALES

Net sales in the first quarter of 1995 increased 3.7 percent from the first
quarter of 1994 as reported, or 7.7 percent excluding sales of Hoover Australia
which was sold in the fourth quarter of 1994.  The increase in sales was mainly
a result of strong North American home appliance and vending equipment sales. 
North American appliance sales were up 5.2 percent to $666.7 million in 1995,
driven primarily by market share gains in virtually all product categories. 
There is some evidence that the appliance industry in the U.S. may not
experience much growth during the remainder of 1995 due to a slowdown in general
economic conditions.  In addition, industry performance was strong in 1994. 
Dixie-Narco's sales in the first quarter were up 32.8 percent to $54.7 million
in 1995 due to increased demand for its core soft drink vending machines and the
sales of its new glass door merchandiser.  The significant growth in vending
equipment sales experienced in the first quarter is not expected to continue for
the remainder of the year.  Sales by the Hoover European Appliance Group were up
10.5 percent to $98.7 million in the first quarter of 1995, primarily due to
favorable currency translation.

GROSS PROFIT
 
Gross profit as a percent of sales increased 1.1 percentage points from the
first quarter of 1994 primarily from improvements in both segments. The
improvements were primarily due to favorable product mix, volume-related factory
efficiencies and cost cutting initiatives.



                                        7<PAGE>


The Company continues to experience cost increases in many commodities,
particularly steel, plastics and corrugated materials.  A portion of these
increases is expected to be offset with internal cost reduction initiatives. 
Through these initiatives, the overall commodity cost escalation is expected to
be contained to the low single-digit percent range.  This will cause pressure on
operating margins during the remainder of 1995.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) for the first quarter
increased to 17.2 percent of sales in 1995 from 17.0 percent in 1994.  Included
in first quarter SG&A was a $5.5 million bad debt provision for an appliance
dealer that went into bankruptcy.  Excluding this charge, SG&A expenses would
have been up slightly but down as a percent of sales.  

OPERATING INCOME

Consolidated operating income for the first quarter of 1995 totalled $80
million, an increase of 14.3 percent over 1994.  Operating income in the North
American Appliance Group increased 7.6 percent to $80.3 million in the first
quarter of 1995.  Vending equipment operating income increased 53.8 percent to
$7.4 million.  Hoover Europe reported an operating profit of $1.2 million in the
first quarter of 1995, compared to an operating loss of $3.7 million in the same
period of 1994.  The improvement in operating income in all business units was
driven by the improvement in gross margin mentioned above.  The uncertainties
regarding appliance industry growth in the U.S. and material cost increases will
make year-over year operating income growth difficult to achieve the remainder
of the year.

INCOME TAXES

The effective tax rate decreased to 40 percent in 1995 from 42 percent in 1994. 
This was primarily due to improved profitability of Hoover Europe and tax
benefits from an increase in export sales from the United States.

NET INCOME

Net income for the first quarter of 1995 was $39.5 million or $.37 per share, up
42.2 percent over the same period in 1994. Excluding the cumulative effect of
adopting Financial Accounting Standards Board No. 112, "Employers' Accounting
for Postemployment Benefits" which the Company adopted in the first quarter of
1994, net income was up 27.5 percent from $31.0 million or $.29 per share in
1994.  The increase in net income was primarily due to higher operating income,
a 15.9 percent reduction in interest expense and the lower effective tax rate
mentioned above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash provided by operating
activities and external debt.  Detailed information on the Company's cash flows
is presented in the Statements of Consolidated Cash Flows.








                                        8<PAGE>


Cash Flow From Operating Activities:  Cash flow generated from operating
activities consists of net income adjusted for certain non-cash income and
expenses and changes in working capital.  Non-cash income and expenses include
items such as depreciation, amortization and deferred income taxes.  Working
capital consists primarily of accounts receivable, inventory and other current
liabilities.

Cash flow from operating activities in the first quarter of 1995 improved
significantly over the same period in 1994.  This was driven primarily by higher
earnings, offset by a lower increase in the selected working capital items
mentioned above.  Included in the working capital improvement was the sale of
$25 million of accounts receivable relating to the operations of Maytag
Financial Services which ceased in 1994.  In addition, cash outflows for 1994
included $32 million of payments  for the 1992 reorganization of the European
operations and the 1993 European "free flights" promotional programs.  The
funding of these events was substantially completed in 1994.  

Cash Flow From Investing Activities:  The Company continually invests in its
businesses to improve product design and manufacturing processes and to increase
capacity when needed.

The higher capital expenditures for the first quarter of 1995 compared to the
same period of 1994 are a result of several new capital projects that the
Company will be implementing over the next several years.  This includes $50
million for a new high efficiency clothes washer, $160 million for a complete
redesign of the Company's refrigerator product lines and manufacturing processes
and $14 million for a dishwasher plant capacity expansion.  The new clothes
washer will be designed to comply with anticipated government regulations
dealing with energy usage and will use water more efficiently.  The
refrigeration project will incorporate changes expected to be required by 1998
Department of Energy refrigeration standards and the upcoming ban on
chlorofluorocarbons ("CFCs").  Planned capital expenditures for 1995 approximate
$175 million and relate to these new projects as well as other ongoing
production improvements and product enhancements. 

Cash Flow From Financing Activities:  Dividend payments in the first quarter of
1995 and 1994 amounted to $13.4 million or $.125 per share.

The Company used cash flow generated from operations and $82.1 million of
proceeds from the sale of its home appliance operations in Australia in 1994 to
reduce commercial paper borrowings and long-term debt by $154.1 million in the
first quarter of 1995.  Included in the debt reduction is $46 million for the
retirement of a portion of the Company's outstanding 8.875% notes due in 1997,
included in long-term debt at December 31, 1994.  The cost of early retirement
of the notes was not significant.  The Company's ratio of debt to total
capitalization decreased from 50.7 percent at December 31, 1994 to 44.9 percent
at March 31, 1995.

The Company is contingently liable for guarantees of indebtedness owed by a
third party ("the borrower") of $24 million relating to the sale of one of its 









                                        9<PAGE>


manufacturing facilities in 1992.  The borrower is performing under the payment
terms of the loan agreement; however, it is currently in default of certain
financial covenants.  The indebtedness is collateralized by the assets of the
borrower.  The Company also has other commitments to the borrower totalling $6
million.
