Steam Clean Option

Clean up after everyday light spills using only heat and 1-1/4 cups of water—no harsh chemicals or cleaners needed. Used periodically to clean light spills on the bottom of the oven, it keeps the oven clean and reduces the need for frequent self-clean cycles.

Sanitize Cycle

The Sanitize Cycle uses increased water temperature to eliminate 99.9% of common household bacteria.*

*Bacteria tested were K. pneumoniae, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus.

Quick Wash Cycle

Your small, lightly soiled loads will be clean in as little as 15 minutes with the Quick Wash cycle.

Cold Wash Cycle

Give your most vibrant colors the care they need with the Cold Wash cycle that adjusts wash actions and time, combined with gentle temperatures, to provide optimal fabric care.

Presoak Option

The Presoak option lets you skip soaking outside of the washer. Extra time is added in the washer before the wash cycle, which starts automatically when the option is complete.

Wash & Dry Option

Wash and dry tomorrow's outfit in the washer with the Wash & Dry Option. It automatically activates a fan so you can get tomorrow's outfits or sports uniforms ready without having to use the dryer.

Single Load Dispenser

Use the single load dispenser when you want to wash with a different detergent than the one currently in the Load & Go™ dispenser. Additional compartments for bleach and fabric softener make sure any additives get dispensed at just the right time during the cycle.

Smooth Wave Stainless Steel Wash Basket

Give clothes the care they need with the sleek pattern of the stainless steel wash basket that gently guides them.

Clean Washer with Affresh® Cycle

Run the Clean Washer with affresh® cycle every 30 washes to thoroughly clean the inside of your washer with an affresh® Washer Cleaner tablet or liquid chlorine bleach.

Laundry Pedestals Compatible

Raise your washer for easier loading and unloading. Optional Laundry Pedestals also provide space-saving storage for detergent, fabric softener and other supplies. (Sold separately.)

Rated 4 out of 5 by TC71 from Great washer I upgraded from the one just below and am sad it doesn't have WiFi. Other than that I love the load n go and it gets my clothes clean quickly.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Isunshie from REGRET We had a Kenmore Elite for 12y and worked beautifully......the only reason we chose to get a new washer was because we could not clean the filter w/o actually opening the back, etc. We researched for a long time and thought this would be comparable. NOPE...doesnt clean the clothes as well and at times have to add an extra spin to get more of the water out of the clothes

Rated 1 out of 5 by Jenryan1 from Hairy mess I thought I did a good job on investigating which new washer to buy when my old Duet clonked out. It turns out I did not. Everyone that said the new Duets are not like the old ones and it is a real bummer! I had such high hopes that I would have this one for 15 yrs like the last one.

Rated 4 out of 5 by neilsf54 from Washing Machine I have only washed a couple of loads in this machine. It seems to do a good job. The documentation for how to use this machine is very poor.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Aletta from Good washer This washer holds larger loads than my previous washer. It spins heavy loads at high speed without shaking and moving across the floor. I'm not interested in the Load & Go feature.
