Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Excellent Front Load Washer

califsteeler 7/23/2019

I brought this Front Load Washer to replace a previous aging washer. It has plenty of extra features to ensure your laundry is cleaned throughly and the 5.0 cu. ft. allows you to wash large comforters and other bulky items.

Sylvie143 7/8/2019

Laveuse avec immense cuve, plusieurs programmes, elle fonctionne à merveille. La première laveuse frontale que j'ai achetée était aussi une Whirlpool, et je l'ai eue pendant 18 ans, avec une famille de 5 enfants. Très contente.

VERY CONFUSED

janiihd 5/1/2019

Just got these to replace our Duets which blew out due to a power surge. The washer is LOUD!! It sounds like someone is banging on a Gong during the wash and spin cycle. I am shocked!! Also, the instructions tell you in one part to push the "Load and Go" to DISABLE the larger dispenser if you just want to add detergent at the top. I have washed several loads now WITHOUT soap because I did not press the "Load and Go" feature because, as it says, you press it to DISABLE THAT FEATURE. Reading in another section of the instructions, it says to press "Load and Go" if you ONLY want it to use the soap from the larger dispenser. THAT makes more sense but WHY does it say both?? SO CONFUSING. I can't believe I did all those loads with NO SOAP!! I don't think I can stand the noise from the washer---it is NERVE WRACKING! Maybe I received a defective one? I've only had this set for less than a week.

Gaag 4/24/2019

I've had the pair for a few days and I love it. I had the first whirlpool front loader from 16 years ago! This one is soooo quiet and I love the all the load options.

Mary Susan 4/8/2019

I've had this machine for two weeks. Still getting familiar with all of the wash choices but love it so far. Best feature is the Load & Go option. Unlike a previous reviewer, this machine is much quieter than my previous 20-year old Whirlpool Washer.

Loud

CMOB1 3/23/2019

Just set the washer and dryer up, Three kids in. Have them in our upstairs laundry room. Can't believe how loud they are - the washer especially. As loud, if not louder, than our old maytags. Sending them back - even if I need to pay a restocking fee. Had whirlpools 15 years ago that we're undercounter in a city aprartment - loved them. Shocked at these units. Especially at this price point.
