Rated 5 out of 5 by LisaL. from Great Machine I needed a new machine and this one was comparable to the one I had previously. I've only used it a few times but so far love it and have no issues. Love the features and seems to be easy to use.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Virgilio Matheus from Missing parts. Wrong installation. Washer came missing a part. Very difficult to schedule someone to come check it out. After they finally showed up. The part is unavailable with no estimate of when will be available. Their installation team left leaving one of the hoses close. Washer kept giving an error until we could figure it out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Real Estate Mama from Delivery issues but great machine It took many months to receive the washer and dryer. The dryer was damaged and was not accepted. We are still waiting for a replacement. The delivery service that "installed" the washer did not remove three of the four shipping bolts. My husband realized the problem after a few attempts to use the washer. The washer kept walking and was very loud. It damaged our newly painted wall. We are also stacking the machines no kit was included with the install.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Lisamarie from Load & Go Awesome Feature I purchased this washer about a month ago and didn't realize what I was getting with the load & go feature - I love it! The one downfall, depending on the type of detergent you use, you may have to adjust the concentration. If you do, there is no way of checking if the adjustment occurred. However, if the machine is not getting detergent, an error message will appear.

Rated 1 out of 5 by David from Broken after 1 year Washer will not power on after 1 year of use. Power button and control panel appears to be defective. Service appointment is 4 weeks out and parts for new control panel/board are on backorder with no ETA. When it was working, the machine did a good job washing clothes but did vibrate and make noise a lot. Really disappointed in quality of washer.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Never_again001 from STAY AWAY!!! Bought this less than a year ago. It always has something wrong with it. We had to fix the electronic panel after 6 months (stopped working after 3) and it still doesn’t work the way it should. It glitches often and will stop a wash randomly. According to whirlpool this is our fault. Ive never experienced this with any other washer and none of my friends have this issue with theirs. It doesn’t drain the laundry either, I’ll open it up and there’s a puddle of water and the laundry is soaked. I cant drain and spin because they are delicates and the spin will damage the clothing and I can’t wring them because again, they are delicates. 90% of my clothes need to be washed on delicate cycle which makes my life very difficult. I bought this brand new thinking it would be at least ok considering how much it cost and I’m very disappointed and angry.

Rated 1 out of 5 by AA3A from 1st one leaked, 2nd one randomly beeps and chimes We bought the washer and dryer in the fall of 2019. Just a few weeks into owning them the washer leaked from the bottom all over. The only reason we caught it before it caused damage to the house is because we had an electrician over doing work and he yelled to me that water was coming from our 1st floor laundry through the ceiling and into the basement. Had service out and couldn’t reproduce the issue. We ended up buying water sensors for around the washer. We continued to have leaking from the bottom of the machine sporadically for months. We had about 5 service calls in all. Some replacing parts and others with no diagnosis. Finally after the 5th call and more leaking I called Whirlpool and demanded they replace the machine. 2 of the deliveries for the replacement were damaged so badly in transit that the delivery team wouldn’t even offload them from the truck. We finally received the replacement and a few months in we now get random beeps and chimes from the machine while it’s washing, but no error codes or anything on the display. It doesn’t seem to affect the washing thankfully, but I’m about to have service out yet again. In addition to that, just out of warranty our matching dryer is not working properly. It dries for a while, stops, then dries again. It seems to overheat or thinks it’s overheating. A load takes hours to dry as it slowly stops and starts again. We tried cleaning all the lint screen areas and the ducting, but no luck with that solving the issue. These machines are awful. I wish I could get my money back.

Rated 2 out of 5 by John K from Died in less than 2 years. Cannot get parts. Bought this machine in July 2019. Two months ago (March 2021) it developed problems with its main controller board. The spare part cannot be sourced and is no longer available. Luckily, I had a "repair or replace" warranty with Home Depot, which covered what we paid for the washer (minus the warranty and delivery). Still, the reason we went with a Whirlpool was because of it's supposed "quality". My crappy LG washer that came with the house lasted longer...
