What Customers Are Saying
This top-load washing machine offers a large capacity drum that can handle big loads, with a removable agitator feature for easy washing of bulky items. It provides efficient cleaning performance and quiet operation, especially during the spin cycle. The controls are simple and intuitive to use. However, it can be a bit noisy during the wash cycle, especially with the agitator in place, and lacks some convenience features like a cycle time display or end-of-cycle alert. The water fill level may also not be deep enough for some users' preferences on regular wash cycles.

This machine definitely leaves things to be desired. There is no timer on the machine, so load take who knows how long at various settings. They’re done when they’re done. There is no soak setting. The machine likes to not fully drain loads. So sometimes you come back and the laundry so wet and heavy that you can’t lift things out of the drum. The drain and spin cycle does what it wants. Usually running a whole new cycle is all that fixes it. The one thing I hated most is that the machine is so ...
Size is only positive attribute
Only bought because tub is so large. Control panel is odd, need to touch power button first, set machine then hold in 'run button' for 5 seconds to start. No indication as to where in the cycle the machine is. No problem telling if cycle is done, loud as can be. When washing sounds like an old laser printer. EVERYTHING comes out twisted together, terribly. I set the water level on high and water level is still quite low. Going thru reset process no help. Your dryer won't have to work hard becaus...

whirlpool has gone downhill
I specifically wanted a whirlpool because they are supposed to be a better model. It sucks. we have had it 9 months. it already stopped working. wanted one with an agitator. Hate HE. the high water option definitely does not increase the water. I am constantly having to do a washer clean cause it makes th3 cloths stink. there is nothing on the device that shows the progress of the wash. i bought the most basic option because we have had very little luck with washers with all the electric o...

I had the same washer for 10 years.
I had two awesome installers. Josiah and Joshua. They were quick to remove the old washer and install the new one. All done within 30 minutes. Very efficient and friendly. My window was between 11:30 and three. They are all finished at 2:05. Thank you guys.

Not at all Happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not Happy!! After having a very nice washing machine gentleman come to my home, I am still having the same issues. 1. Clothing go in (not overloaded!) the right amount of "he" soap and was told to wash everything on bulk for a better wash and the result continues to be.... 2. I come in the wash room and the LID light is flashing and the clothing is soaked at the bottom of the washer (no standing water) I turn on the drain and spin. Come back la...

Removal agitator is a good idea , but don’t buy
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the washing machine in April. I ysed it six times. On the sixth use, water gushed out of the side of the machine because the inside hose came off. There was no clamp holding the hose on. (The repairman saw what the issue was as soon as he took the back off of the machine.). I proceeded to wash a large bedspread by removing the agitator. The machine came off balance and also did not spin out the bedspread dry enough. I had to put ...

Two Machines in One
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with the performance of the Whirlpool Top Load Washer with the removable agitator. I love having a washer with an agitator, but for the big things, like a king size comforter, I just take a minute and take the agitator out. Seriously, A 5 year old could do it. I like all the cycle options. 2 things I miss are the visible timer showing how much time is left in a cycle, and the chime when the cycle ends. This machine replaced a Wh...

Not impressed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wish this washer had a timer so i had an idea how much time it’s left. The washer is so loud my family wants to know what’s going on when I’m doing laundry. The agitation sounds like a utility truck backing up beeping non stop. The soap and softener cups are so so cheap. They fill with water and never drain. After every load i have to carefully place a washcloth in the cup to soak up water. If i run another load, i have no idea how much soap ...

How Did I Live Without This Washer?!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Where to start - Agitation is great. Clothes The scrubbing action is perfect, whether I'm cleaning pet bedding, large load or just a light wash. Laundry doesn't bunch, and there's a shorter wash than when I used my old washer. I have a top loader and am thrilled with being able to look at the load while it is washing without having to stop the wash, open the lid, and view it. The water level adjusts great no matter how much I'm washing. Saves...
