    Purchased a washer and dryer from local dealer in August of 2024. The washer pump stopped working and apparently there was a recall. Whirlpool does not send out notices to consumers any longer. We contacted the certified repair company, and today is the 4th time they had to reschedule. If you are in Connecticut, Whirlpool uses Advanced Appliance Repair out of MA. If you own a Whirlpool, find your model and serial number and check if there is a recall. Again, Whirlpool will not notify you.

    We bought a Whirlpool fridge December 22, 2024. It started having issues in January 7, 2026; I called service and was told that even the limited warranty was not going to cover my issue. I paid $446 for a service contract on January 7, 2026. The repair company they use in my area, Diamond Factory Services NE; diagnosed the issue in January and fixed it on February 18, 2026. The fridge has the exact same issue that prompted us to call in January, but both Diamond Factory Services and Whirlpool services are saying I need to purchase a new contract for them to come out and look at it again. The fridge was only $900; they would be asking me to pay the same amount over two service contracts. Absolute garbage product and terrible service from both companies. I will never purchase another Whirlpool product.

      We purchased Whirlpool top load HE machine over a month ago and have had nothing but problems. This machine has a mind of its own...runs the cycles it wants to, my Wife has to run it through two or three spin cycles because the clothes are soaking wet. You try a cycle and DYOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT IT WILL DO...what a piece of junk. WHIRLPOOL SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FOR THESE PRODUCTS. Have complained to the vendor and waiting (two weeks) on a response...legal may be the alternative.

      Bought a Whirlpool top loading washer in 2022. The motor is overkill. It’s very loud and the whole washer shakes, and the hose is banging against the wall. As far as washing, it does not even get your clothes, 100% wet. When you pull out things, there are huge dry spots. My first review was seen by Whirlpool and they contacted me and sent someone out. I told them it works the way you designed it, terribly. Whirlpool paid for someone to come out so they could tell me. Oh it’s too close to the wall is that that’s why it’s banging. NO, it’s banging because the motor is too much it spins things so tight in a knot that water can’t even get to all items. 70 years of washing clothes and I’ve never seen such a worthless piece of crap. Whirlpool said it spins like that so you’re drying time is less. BS. I have to wash most loads twice so that water actually coats the items before it spins into oblivion. Do not buy Whirlpool washing machines.

      I bought the Whirlpool top loader with removable agitator washer and matching dryer in Dec of 2026, the washer started turning on by itself, not draining and just tried draining constantly even when no water was in there. Was out of a washer for 2 months until the motherboard was finally replaced, here I am a month later and the same exact thing is happening. Home Depot says I can't return it, Whirlpool just wants to put a bandaid on it and I want out of this set. It's a beautiful set, but that's all it's good for. Please save yourself the money and aggravation.

      Bought top load washer 16 months ago. Suddenly one night it turned on, all by itself - we had not touched the machine. Only way to stop it was to unplug it. Just a bit scary - what happens if you're out of town for weeks - you have a washing machine that chugs away.... until the engine burns out, until it starts a fire? The service person replaced the circuit board? in 5 minutes and said this is a known problem with these machines. If it's a known problem, could they not have warned me? Recall maybe? Now I'm wondering what other zombie machines I have in my house!

      I can't express how much I dislike this machine. I have anxiety just thinking about doing laundry waiting to hear if it goes crazy bouncing around, or has my clothes in twisted in a knot. I bought it because my old 15 year old Whirlpool machine finally died. I thought I'll buy another Whirlpool, what a mistake!!! It finally completely screwed up and after resetting and trying all the tricks it's done and so am I. It is the worst piece of junk!!! It's only 3 years old! Ugh!!

      2 years and 1 month and I am having problems. It keeps acting like it is draining to spin. Guess what no water in the tub. I absolutely HATE this machine. A lot of money for a junkyard machine. No more Whirlpool appliances for me.

      I have a Whirlpool WET4027EW0 model stacked washer/dryer that came with my rented apartment. While it's nice to have in-unit laundry, the washer is terrible. It doesn't fill all the way, if I don't deliberately push the clothes down into the water, they don't necessarily get wet because the agitator doesn't move them around enough. I've taken to adding water to the machine by the bucketful just to fill it all the way, and occasionally I've put the wash through two full wash cycles - one with detergent, one without - to make sure the clothes get really clean. There's nothing I can do because this is a rental, but I might save others. Do not buy this machine.

      I bought a Whirlpool top loading washer and it stopped working in less than 2 years. The technician who came to repair it said he had seen the same problem several times. Whirlpool has installed a faulty pressure sensor on the main control model WTW4816FW3 with errors F1 E1, F3 E1 and F8 E1. A repair would cost 482.00. I have called, emailed, written to and had a live chat, with no response. I now have a broken washer from a company that is aware of this issue and doesn’t care.

      Whirlpool is generally considered the largest home appliance maker in the world. The company employs over a 100,000 employees, with many of them located right in the United States. The company also has a strong commitment to environmental and social causes.

      • Large capacities for a variety of customers: Whirlpool washers feature large capacities, with a few washers offering more capacity than 4.3 cubic feet.

      • Corporate diversity: Whirlpool has a commitment to corporate diversity, and attempts to connect with groups like women, blacks and Asians through its various Whirlpool Action Networks.

      • Auto-dispensing feature: With select washers, consumers can fill their washer with enough detergent for 12 washes. From there, the Whirlpool washer will dispense the exact amount of detergent needed, saving time and conserving detergent.

      The ConsumerAffairs Research Team believes everyone deserves to make smart decisions. We aim to provide readers with the most up-to-date information available about today's consumer products and services.
