Precision Dispense Ultra Cleans better and uses less detergent, saving nearly 10% in HE detergent costs. By adding detergent throughout the length of the fill time, Precision Dispense Ultra delivers better results than adding detergent manually. The system also releases bleach and fabric softener at the right time during the cycle for optimal fabric care.The removable reservoir can hold enough detergent for up to 36 loads of laundry in a single filling 2 .

Laundry Apps The washer's built-in suite of Laundry Apps includes features like Stain Assist and Hints & Tips that give practical advice on stains and other everyday laundry questions. The Before You Call section provides topical answers to all your technical questions about the washer. 14 specialty fabric care cycles and 3 language options complete the number of customized helpers this washer provides.

Quiet Spin 360 Technology Now you can place your laundry pair virtually anywhere and be assured of balanced performance and vibration control. The washer takes into account where it's installed and adapts to improve its balance over time. A built-in accelerometer and dual-ring ball-balancing keep the wash basket centered at all times.

Smart Temperature Control Helps Reduce Shrinking and Color Bleeding The Care Control temperature management system enabled by 6th Sense technology helps protect your clothes by controlling water amount and temperature.

Responsive Technology Saves You Water, Energy and Money The H2Low system enabled by 6th Sense technology uses less water per load while delivering better cleaning performance and gentleness than a traditional top load washer.

Keep Operational Sounds Inside the Washer With the Quiet Wash noise reduction system, sound-absorbing materials around the wash basket or drum reduce operational noise.

ENERGY STAR® Qualified Meets government standards to help conserve natural resources and save money on utility bills.

CEE Tier III Qualified Based on the Consortium for Energy Efficiency qualified product listings--with Tier III being the most efficient. This model features advanced water & energy savings and may qualify for rebates from local utility companies.

Direct Inject Wash System Penetrates stains and pretreats soils with a concentrated burst of detergent virtually eliminating the need to pretreat. The wash cycle begins only after the entire load has been treated.

Care Control Temperature Management Adjusts the cold and hot water inlets to reach temperatures that are warm enough to dissolve detergents. Water is kept from overheating to help reduce shrinking and/or color bleeding.

EcoBoost Option Get additional energy efficiency without giving up cleaning performance. This option lowers water temperature and increases the tumbling action to use less energy while still delivering great cleaning and gentle performance.

Direct Drive Motor The direct drive motor allows the washer to spin faster, and it uses fewer moving parts, so there's less wear and tear over time.

Stainless Steel Wash Basket Resists odors, rust and chipping. The smooth surface helps protect delicate fabrics from snagging.

Delicate Cycle A reduced agitation speed and low spin speed provide needed fabric care without sacrificing cleaning performance.

Quick Wash Cycle Clean small, lightly soiled loads in less time. Plus, increased spin speeds extract more water for faster dry times.

Bulky Items Cycle Ideal for cleaning bulky items like comforters, sleeping bags, down jackets or pillows, all of which fit easily into the wash basket.

Whitest Whites Cycle Raises water tempeatures and releases bleach or an oxygen-based cleaner at the optimal moment to enhance whitening performance.

Cradle Clean Technology Simulates hand washing during extra care cycles by "rocking" the tilted wash drum instead of spinning it.

Automatic Water Level Control Regulates the amount of water based on the size of the load. Only the amount needed to clean is used, increasing efficiency and helping the environment.

Add-A-Garment Indicator Light Illuminates for the first 8 minutes of the wash cycle as a convenient reminder that forgotten items can still be added to the load in progress.

Hand Wash Cycle Uses extra low, intermittent agitation to mimic washing in the sink for delicate care of hand wash only garments.

Allergen Cycle The Allergen cycle has been tested to remove up to 95% of harmful allergens 1 from your clothes.

Deep Clean Steam Option Penetrates deep into fabric fibers, breaking down and dissolving stains like grass and grease without pretreating.

Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

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.

Great Washer Has Lasted for Years

skrillet 3/12/2019

I have had this washer for about 9 years and have only had a couple of minor problems with it over the years. It also does not make my clothes smell or smell as long as you leave it open to air out and clean it.

Great Unit, needs better documentiation

3/12/2016

love this washer. eels like a quality appliance. Took a little too long to "get" how it works. Needs better documentation and or a quick start guide. Took awhile to get the first load going, no clear explanation of how to turn it on and start a cycle.

Disappointed

Tjb 11/4/2015

I have used my new washer once a week for 4 weeks- and now am sitting at the laundromat- it is broken. According to the error code it appears that the door lock is not working- I am extremely disappointed- my last Frigidaire washer ran for 18 years with no problems- when I needed to finally replace it, I researched and choose whirlpool. I am dissatisfied and questioning my decision.

9/24/2015

I have absolutely loved my duet set over the years and was a little disappointed when we included it in the sale of our house. But that gave us an excuse to buy the latest model. It is redesigned a little bit, for instance there is nowhere to add oxiclean in the dispenser, I put it directly in the drum now. But the load and go detergent option is fabulous! They also changed the method for reminding you to clean the washer, but overall I have been happy with the new design.

who needs a dryer

9/23/2015

love this machine. it is quiet and has so many options. when it spins the clothes, they are almost dry. it would have been great if the door could have opened from the other side. somehow have that option before it is delivered would be nice. but otherwise, the washer is top of the line.

Great machine except.......

7/6/2015

We bought both the washer and dryer and were impressed with the features and functions. We really liked the automatic soap dispenser and the air fresh. What we don't like is the washer doesn't spin anywhere near a heavy load. For example, we can wash a nice load of towels but we have to split them in half and let each half spin again to get all the water out. I did check the manual and it does say loads have to be balanced. As long as the load is light, the washer spins fine. But try and throw 6 big towels in and they will wash fine but won't spin all the water out. The 10 year old washer I got rid of easily spun heavy loads. This is our major disappointment with this washer. I would rate this as 5 stars if not for this one issue which is a big one to us.

Impressive Advancements

7/3/2015

This is my second set of Duets, first set purchased 18 years ago. I needed a larger capacity washer/dryer to accommodate a new laundry room remodel and enough room to wash my comforters. I was happy with my original Duets, so I didn't do a whole of research on other models other than pricing, and the Whirlpool Duets still remain competitive.Not only were my larger capacity Duets able to handle my large comforters, eliminating the need to hang out at the Laundromat, but virtually every feature has been improved upon. I no longer need to spend time soaking my heavily soiled items (although that feature is available) or add additional stain fighters. The spin feature is improved, and my clothes come out practically dry, less time in the dryer. The steam feature eliminates the need to iron or spend additional time drying small loads to remove wrinkles. My new Duets are not only more efficient, and great looking by the way, but they save me time and money, and more importantly, help simplify life in the laundryroom. What more could I ask for?

Great Washer

6/8/2015

Very happy with the purchase of our washer. It is large enough to wash our Queen size bed quilt, which has been wonderful. The Precision Dispense is one of my favorite features. Knowing that I am not using too much soap is wonderful and the kids are able to do laundry without my worrying about them overfilling as well. The clothes are spun out nicely and I believe it has cut our drying time significantly. Overall, we are very happy with this purchase.

Adamg 4/10/2015

I never thought my clothes could get so clean. There is a cleaning cycle for whatever you need to wash such as pillows, cushions and even stuffed animals. The steam feature is great. It really deep cleans everything. It is very quiet and a lot of the cycles are fast.

We had a 5 year old GE front loader washer and matching dryer. The cycles took forever, and we offer had to repeat cycles to spin or dry clothes. I love my new Whirlpool set. I also no longer get the must odor that I had with my previous set. Love them.

Very nice washing machine

3/9/2015

I had a Whirlpool Duet at my previous home and loved it and decided to get the same brand but newer model this time. I have not used the new model many times yet but I really love the flexibility of having the eco boost and steam options. My clothes are coming out very nice and clean as they did with the other Duet that I owned. I love the front load because my clothes do not seem to be damaged from repeated washings as much as they did with the conventional washing machines I have used in the past. I really do love the automatic dispenser that comes with this newer model.

This washer is wonderful. I replaced a 12 year old Duet model. I was happy about owning that model, however I am super happy, absolutely ecstatic, with this model. It spins faster than my old model. The clothes come out very dry. I am very happy with the results. The pleasant musical tunes are icing on the cake

I am so glad I have the "Load and Go" feature on this washing machine - it makes doing laundry go faster and It makes it easier for my teenage son to do his own laundry! The "Sanitize" feature on the washer and dryer have alleviated my husband's allergies so much that he is not snoring as much at night!

I love almost everything about this washer, except for the mildew/mold that takes over the dispenser area. I've learned to completely pull out the dispenser and laying it on a towel on top of washer when done, pulling it open was not enough. So far this has helped.

Satisfying replacement

littlelionsmom 11/16/2013

About a month ago our washer broke and this replacement has been nothing more than wonderful. We'd purchased it at a Sears Outlet and apparently the customer refused to buy it because of a small cosmetic defect. Their loss was my gain and I am beyond happy with this new replacement.

I loooooove my washer

maryjo0715 11/8/2013

Words cannot express my delight in owning this Whirlpool washer! I have owned many others in just a few years and have found that the front loaders are really difficult to keep sanitary! This Whirlpool washer has a door that will stay ajar to let the air in and the rubber gasket will dry without getting slimy. I also love the laundry detergent drawer. You can put a larger amount of laundry detergent in it and it will dispense it automatically. Every time I show anyone our new home, I bring them in the laundry room and tell them that the Whirlpool washer is my favorite item in our home! It is the honest truth!

My first front loader

lotsalaundry 11/5/2013

I can't comment on this as a front loader--my first. It does clean clothes well, but takes more time than a top loader. Occasionally, water will leak out the front of the door. This seems to happen when there is an item in there that is water resistant (like a rain jacket). I believe the water sprays on it and bounces off the the front door where it runs out. Otherwise, it has been reliable for 3 months. There are many features to adjust your cleaning specifications. Of course, it looks great.

This steam front load precision washer is the best!

10/29/2013

I had a top load whirlpool washer for 20 years, it finally died. But I am not sorry , because my new steam front load is the best washer I have ever had. I have a whirlpool dryer, which is still going strong. yes! its 15 years old still going strong. I don't really have to use it all the time now. with the new steam washer, which almost dry my clothes. But the towels, I have to put in the dryer. I am saving up for the new dryer; the match for my washer. I love it. it is worth all the money in the world.

Great looking machine, but a little short of substance

FrankA 10/28/2013

I love the look of this machine and would probably buy it again if given a choice. The features and use are easy to navigate on the touch screen. Overall, I'd recommend it but I wish there were a few changes.First, on medium or high speed spin, this sounds like a jet engine revving up for take-off. It reaches a high pitched whine. It's not "loud" but sure isn't silent like the wash cycles are. I guess it's expected at that speed, but I was surprised.Second: I'm sure it's washing most daily clothes adequately. However, set it stains are a problem. This thing uses hardly any water. The clothes are wet during the cycles- but they soak up nearly every drop. There is no standing water in the bottom of the tub and very little dripping around. I would think the dirt just cant get 'pulled' out of the clothing without water to carry it away. I wish I could give it another gallon to 'swish' around even to make myself feel like it's doing a better job.

Great Machines for City Living

SKBReview 7/16/2013

I absolutely love my whirlpool's, they were were a breeze to install and we have never regretted the space they take up in our New York City apartment. Quiet, efficient, and stylish enough to add to the ambiance of our homes--my washer and dryer have been a lifesaver. Now I need to get a set for my non-city house!

Great steam washer

JessaN 3/31/2013

I love this washer. It has tons of great features, lots of different wash settings and options, and my clothes are consistently clean (and it doesn't "eat" baby socks like some font load washers do). The best part for me is that you can program your own wash settings, and you can start with one of theirs as a "base", so since I want all my clothes to go on a second rinse I can set up a cycle with that option, I don't have to change it every time I start a new load. The only issues I have with it, are extremely minor, but worth mentioning. The sound of the washer locking and unlocking is a loud metallic click, and since my washer is adjacent to my baby's bedroom I have to be careful about when I do laundry since it's a resounding sharp sound, it can wake her from a nap (though she is a lighter sleeper). Also, the washer comes with a precision dispenser for liquid detergent, which is great if you use liquid, but if you prefer powder, as I do, every time you start a wash cycle it asks you if you're using the precision dispenser, and every time I have to hit no, and then hit "Start" again. It would be great if there was a place to turn that off globally in the settings menu, or if the washing machine could detect if it was in the machine or not.We leave the door open after we remove a load to make sure the machine dries properly, and so far we haven't had any issues with some of the more common complaints with front load washers, like a mildew smell. I would definitely recommend this to a friend!

Really like the precision dispense, only need to add detergent every other week. The capacity has allowed us to cut the number of loads we do from 6 to 3 times a week. Clothes come out practically dry. Excellent machine.

Great Dryer

n2hdcycles 3/13/2013

My washer recently died, and while shopping for a new one, decided to purchase a new set instead of just a washer. We had one of the very first high efficiency models that were made (bought in 2001). It was time to upgrade.I am extremely pleased we did purchase a set, not just the washer. This dryer far exceeds my expectations. It was a little scary at first, just looking at the control panel. But it didn't take long to figure it out. Frankly it is quite simple to use...and even simple to adjust the standard settings. It is very intuitive.But best of all, this dryer will dry a normal load of clothes in approx 20 minutes less time than the old dryer. Well worth the money spent to receive the energy savings in the long run.Had the dryer about a month, and no problems thus far.

Awesome washing machine

I would recommend this washing machine. We replaced a Maytag with this machine, and have enjoyed a much quieter, cleaner and more advanced cleaning experience.

It gets clothes super clean and is easy to use. Even my 88 year old mother found it easy to use and she can't use the microwave yet.

Best washer we could find

Nats58 2/10/2013

We had a 10 year old set of Duet washers and, wow, what a difference. These are so much quieter and all but vibration free. We love the detergent dispenser and one recommendation I would make is do the same thing with fabric softener. I worry about how many open/close cycles the seal on the detergent tank will take before we start to see leaks. If the fabric softener had the same sort of tank. A person wouldn't have to open the drawer at all except on the rare occasion you might need to add bleach. The spin cycle is so fast that drying times are reduced. The dryer is usually done in less than 30 mins. And the increased spin speed come with less vibration. We've only had the washer for about a month but so far, it's impressive.

Fantastic Purchase

10/30/2012

I am absolutely thrilled to peices with my purchase. I bought a whirlpool washer and dryer - paid a lot of money but i must say it was worth every bit. besides for the style of it (I bought the silver) which is so sleek and classy looking, it cleans so well, works quietly, has some excellent features such as the My Cycle, Quick Wash, Clean Washer, etc. I love the LCD screen and the laundry tips in there as well. its overall fabulous

Awesome washer

beccaboosmith 10/25/2012

This is my first front loading washer. It does a remarkable job of getting my clothes clean with so little water. The spin cycle really dries out the clothes so the dryer has less work to do. I really like the soap dispenser, I only have to fill it every 6-8 loads depending on the cycle. The washer even reminds me when its time to clean it. It is also surprisingly quiet compared to other front loading washers I have heard at friends' houses. It was an expensive purchase but I feel it was definitely worth it.
