Whirlpool Washing Machines Reviews

Add yet another set of very unhappy and disgusted customers to the list of those who purchased the horribly overpriced Whirlpool Cabrio Washer!

I brought Whirlpool Whitemagic Pro / 7.0 kg F.A. WM 700h on July 3 2010 from G-MART Edappally. After washing 6 times within two weeks, it began to show constant DL, LE codes. I've called Whirlpool about this issue three times. For each complaint, the technician replaced some parts in it, but in vain. Fed up with this, I called the Whirlpool Area Manager, I was told that since it's a minor issue, they won't replace it but they will repair it. So I contacted the dealer, G-MART, and they said replacement would come within two working days.

I bought a washer and dryer less than 4 years ago. After 2 years the digital display board broke on the washer and had to be repaired at $450.00. Now in a little over a year the washer is leaking water. I called Whirlpool to see if they are recalling this model no such luck! Also makes horrible loud noise when spinning and twists and tears my clothes.

I knew after the first wash that I had made a huge mistake in buying this Cabrio washer. It did not clean a small load of white clothing, even with the normal amount of laundry soap and bleach. I immediately called Warehouse Discount Center and said for them to come and get it and I would eat the 25% re-stocking fee. They said since it was used once, it was "used" and they couldn't take it back. I said I'd call Whirlpool and they said Whirlpool wouldn't take it back either. When I bought this machine, the salesman showed me how high-ranking it was in Consumer Reports. Ha! What a joke. I will never, ever buy a Whirlpool again (which I have done for decades!). I want to join a class action lawsuit. The daily frustration I feel while using this Cabrio is enormous. I am furious!

I brought a Whirlpool Cabrio washer and it has not worked for 30 days at a time. The mother board has went out at least 3 times and now the balancer does not work. It will not spend the clothes out without constantly being off balanced. I brought this machine thinking that Whirlpool was a trustworthy company, but that has proved not to be true. If you would go the site of Whirlpool, there are complaints and you would see that a lot of people have the same complaint as do I. Something should be done about it. To be exact I have lost several hundreds of dollars. I have spent a total of $595.79, not including the amount it cost to do laundry at the laundry-mat for 5 people.

My two year old Cabrio washer is making loud mechanical noise when spinning. After reading the pages on Consumer Affairs website, I called Whirlpool (800-442-1111). Karen, wouldn't provide last name, told me she had never heard of the problem. I asked her if she ever looked at the CA web site? "No we only know what consumers report," she replied. I asked to have the address or a management contact. She refused to give me one. I was reading her 'queue' card and kept repeating that my washer was out of warranty. If I wasn't angry when I called, I sure was with her canned don't give a damn attitude. I realize she does what Whirlpool tells her.

I am complaining against my Cabrio (Model: WTW6200SW0) washer's constant UL and LF codes. I have called Whirlpool about this issue twice already and since the washer is almost four-years old, they refused to do anything about this, even though I have explained that there are 100's of complaints out there with this problem. They did give me numbers of service people in the area to call. How gracious of them! I am in for a class action lawsuit if there are enough people to do so. The horror stories online about their customer service and repair people is understandable. They need to stand behind their products, especially when it isn't an isolated incident.

We purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer and Dryer from Lowe’s approximately 2.5 years ago. Suddenly, within the last month, the washer was making loud noises during a spin cycle, and the computer board was malfunctioning. We called the number on the lid to set up a service appointment, with A&E service. Upon the technician's diagnosis, the entire drum/rotor would need replacement for $400, and eventually the machine would have problems and display an F1 code.

I purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer and Dryer three years ago. It has truly been a disappointing experience. I wash everything on delicate as otherwise, the close spin so fast and are so wrung out that they are almost permanently wrinkled. I had the repairman out twice when the machines were under warranty to fix the washing machine. I recently kept getting a F1 error code.

I purchased a Whirlpool washer, MN WTW57ESVW1, on September 18, 2009, from Lowe's Home Improvement on Airline Rd. in Corpus Christi, Texas. The same part, which is the water sensor, has broken four times, beginning in December of 2009, then again in March of 2010, May of 2010 and August of 2010. Every time this has happened, the machine won't fill with water. I called the number. I am told that since it didn't break down within 30 days of purchase, they won't replace it but they will repair it. I have had a Whirlpool representative ask me what I wanted him to do about the washer and I told him to come get it and replace it but they refuse to do that.

I bought a washer and dryer set four years ago. A day after the warranty expired, the heating element went out. I paid $125 to have it fixed. A month later, the pump on the washer started leaking, $100 repair. Five months later, dryer started making weird noises and the drum started to separate from the unit. The dryer from the day I bought it never dried as it should. This was our first appliance purchase as a married couple and we spent over $700 for the set. It should last longer than four years.

I bought the Cabrio Washer at Lowes May '07. Three years later I have balling of clothes so tight I have to fight to pull my clothes out of the machine, terrible. The last half hour of the spin cycle sounds like a turbo charged jet engine, very disappointing for a $900.00 plus washer that was recommended by Consumer Reports! I just canceled my repair service for tomorrow after reading all the disappointing reviews of service because spending $300 or $400 dollars to fix this is criminal! Please, a class action lawsuit is needed. $1000.00 dollars down the drain. Whirlpool knows this machine is faulty! It’s very dishonest to not stand by their product.

I am seeing that there are a lot of consumers that all have problems at the 3 year mark as me. I bought a brand new Whirlpool Cabrio Washer and Dryer from Sears just 3 years ago. During this time the dryer motor went out and had to be replaced at a cost of $450 and now the washer has had a bad bearing, new washtub and now they tell me it needs a new board and pump. In the past 3 weeks I have spent around $900, which is more than what a new one costs me. I contacted Whirlpool's A&E service group to do the repairs thinking that their own repair organization would know how to fix things, boy was I wrong. They came out twice to fix the washer and after they left, it would not even finish one load before is stopped again. Had I known this, I would have thrown it away and bought another brand of washer before dumping more money.

It has been a month since my machine has been broken. I keep getting calls to reschedule my service date because the parts the machine needs are in back-order. The parts are a control board and stator. I keep getting the runaround between Whirlpool customer service and from Lowe's authorized technicians service (A&E Factory Service). That is who I have my extended warranty with. I purchased my machine on June 2007. This is the first time I've had a serious problem with it. I don't understand why they tell me that they can't find the parts! Is the machine no longer being made? Then, replace my machine! It's not the customer's fault Whirlpool can't find the parts. In the meantime, I'm spending money at the Laundromat on washing clothes for a family of five!

This is the worst washing machine I have ever owned and I am 63 years old. I paid a lot of money (more than I have ever paid) anticipating that this washer would last my lifetime. I have had it for 3 miserable years and feel totally betrayed by Whirlpool for making such a terrible product. This washer should be taken off the market immediately. And the consumers who purchased it should be given a replacement! What a rip off! Is there a lemon law for appliances?

I am so upset after spending over $1000 and having to have someone out four times to replace the mother board in one year and three other calls. They do not use new parts (per policy) and will not replace. It is a good thing I bought the warranty because after six visits it is still flashing the Ld code.

I bought a Whirlpool Cabrio washer and dryer in 12-08 from my local Sears store. In 7-09, I started getting an LD code and my washer just quit working. I called Sears because it was still under warranty. They had someone there within 3 days to fix it and it turned out to be a drain pump. The guy told me a grain of sand can break the pump (it’s all plastic). On 6-10, I started getting the same code after my washer started leaking a lot. I called Sears again because I had bought the extended warranty. The lady told me that it was the main circuit board; I told her it was a drain pump last time it was doing the same thing. She said she ordered the board for me and set me up an appointment about 3 weeks out. When that date came around, they called to reschedule because they had sent the part to my mom's PO Box so UPS wouldn't deliver it.

In April 2007, we purchased a Cabrio washer. Yes, we did the research before spending $1000 on a washer. We loved it until I had to deal with the F code and have the wiring harness replaced which they fixed out of warranty for the last 30 days. It wont finish the cycle and is always unbalanced even if you take everything out! Last night, I dealt with it for 3 hours and enough was enough, we should have to find out at 11:30 at night that it hasn't finished the cycle that was started 5 hours earlier and so the laundry was put into the drier really wet on some occasions, i have been able to use the drain and spin but recently even that quit working.

I bought a Whirlpool dryer, as my old Whirlpool was at least 20 years old and ran great. I've had the new dryer a little over 2 years, and it is already scratched and rusted on the top and its belt has broken!

I purchased a Whirlpool Washer and Dryer at Lowe’s in 2007. I took out the 3-year warranty and now I am on an extended warranty. Whirlpool has had to fix the washing machine every year since I got it. They "fixed" it again for the same problem a couple of months ago and it is now having the same problem. I want them to replace the washing machine. But I was told that when they fix them, they get a tax credit and get nothing if they have to replace it! I am a senior on social security, so I do not have a lot of money to spare. It has cost me more for warranty coverage than it would have to replace the machine.

Whirlpool washer purchased new in 2007. Recently, it is leaking. The Whirlpool repairman said it would be about $875 to fix the washer that has 3 major part failures. Whirlpool offered 15% credit on buying a new Whirlpool washer. Awful quality and no interest in customer satisfaction! I had to junk the 3-year old washer and spend almost $900 to buy a new one.

5/05/07, I purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio washer and dryer. The washer was $980.00 plus a 2 year service contract. Just yesterday the BGE service man told me it would cost $500.00 to repair the main bearing in the washer. This is a disgrace. I always pride myself in buying the top of the line products. We are seniors and can't afford another $980.00. I called Lowes and Whirlpool and they produced zip. With all the technology out there I can't believe a company like Whirlpool has to produce such junk and at that price.

It is now off of warranty and of course not working again. I will have to have a repair person come out again, but this time out of my own pocket .

Whirlpool Cabrio is a piece of unnecessary equipment that one doesn't need in their laundry room or where ever the wash is done. Don't like the fact that our GVT. is involved in washing my clothes. The amt. of water used to wash clothes is a thimble full for what I call a normal load of laundry and I do not abuse the washer. The time allotted for the clothes to be washed is a day and a half (74) minutes to be exact. What washer should take that long. I sent it back before the 30days were up and bought a second hand( 2yr old)simple to use washer (GE )from a repair shop for a great deal less than the new one , with 120 day guarantee return if I don't like it or something goes amiss.

The problem is not with the seller (Great Indoors) but with the product. The washer was installed on 8/18/10. After the first load, we noticed a small amount of water near the front left leg. Thinking we may have spilled the water, the following day we ran three loads: a small one and two large ones. The unit leaked on the two large loads. Furthermore, we noticed stains on the sheets we washed. The leak has been reported in several blogs, but we figured that Whirlpool would have fixed the problem. We are not going to mess with service: we're replacing the unit with a washer form a different manufacturer. The dilemma is which one? Never again, Whirlpool.

I have been trying to fix my washer for about 6 or 7 weeks now. I keep getting the run around from Whirlpool and write the company from one person to another. They sent out appliances and appliances doctor but either person doesn’t knew why they were here but they were quick to leave a service bill. I have never been so unhappy with this service before. How long does it take to fix the washer. I believe they are just giving me the run around. They say their system is down for like to days in a row. How are they doing business?

I'm actually very dissatisfied with the washer and dryer. The washer is leveled properly and is on the main floor and when I'm upstairs, I can feel the shaking of the washer when it's on the spin cycle. We have had it checked and they don't know why it does that. With the dryer, the lint trap liner keeps coming out when I pull out the lint trap. Now, we also have a Whirlpool disher, brand new, and we have had a previous one that also didn't clean well. The agent at Olums Furniture told us that it might be leaving food on the dishes because we are not supposed to pre-rinse first. That it needs the dirty dishes to stay dirty in order to clean properly. We have done that now with our new dishwasher and things still do not come clean. I am very unhappy with Whirlpool products and would like an answer on what to do. Thank you for any help you can give me.

The Whirlpool Cabrio is the absolute worst washing machine ever built. I'd rather have a bucket and washboard! A few years ago, I spent a lot of money ($1000) on this Cabrio piece of junk from Whirlpool. It will not stay balanced, regardless of the size of load. I get the "F" code often. I get the "uL" (out of balance) code. And, I get a bunch of other codes. I can get it fixed for about half the price of the original machine -- great deal, huh? It has cost me about 4 times the amount of electricity and water than any other washing machine because of the need to repeat the cycles from where it left off at the time of the error code.

I bought the Cabrio washer and dyer in November 2006. Before it was a year old, the washer was giving me the "F1" code. I called and they sent someone out to repair it and it required the computer board to be replaced. The catch on dryer door had also fallen out requiring me to change the orientation of the door to make it work. Then in April of 2010, I disconnected the washer and turned the water off to it, just like the manual said because I would not be using it for awhile. It is in my house and I left the air-conditioner on.

I purchased a top-of-the-line Whirlpool washer. I am the only person in my household so laundry is minimum. The machine was less than 7 years old when the transmission went out. A local technician said it would take over $300 to repair and suggested I purchase a new machine. Now I'm holding my breath because the matching dryer is making strange noises. My complaint is not against Lowes because they have always taken care of any issues. However, I always thought Whirlpool was a good brand but I will never purchase anything from them again. It cost me $600 to replace a machine that should have lasted for years. I am my only support so that's a lot of money. Thank goodness for Lowes' 12 months, no interest promotion!

I have a Whirlpool stack set I bought three and one half years ago. The washing machine now does not spin the end cycle, and the machine is partly full of water. This is not the first glitch I have had with this machine. I expect a washing machine to last more than four years. I shall never again buy another Whirlpool product.

I bought a Whirpool Cabrio last year because Consumer Reports rated it a best buy. Bad buy. You can't do a load without the drawstrings from sweatshirts, pants, etc., getting stuck, and wrapped around the spindle. This Whirpool sucks!

We bought a Whirlpool washer and dryer from Lowe's around 6/30/2010. It was hooked up on July 31, 2010. I noticed when I used it that the soap dispenser releases the soap, bleach, and softener all at the same time. Also, if the soap is added first, it goes right into the wash as I am loading it. I ruined two shirts and some towels because of this. I called Whirlpool and they said I needed a service man to come in, that it is internal. I explained I just got the washer, used it maybe 3 times, and it is brand new. They did not care. They said I needed it to be serviced.

I purchased the Cabrio washer on January 15, 2010. Seven months later, there was a hole in the boot, a leaking tub and a computer system down. The first contracted repairman was a no-call-no-show twice. When he did show up, he misdiagnosed the problem, so I had to get someone else. This person was great, but it is going to take another two weeks to get the parts. In the mean time, I am having to go to the laundromat to wash. This whole process is taking over a month to fix. At what point is someone going to do something about this faulty equipment? It seems like the same problems! If there is a recall, please let me know.

A Cabrio top loader washer was purchased on April 2009 and the first issue. On October 2009. I had to replace the main bearing and tub after normal use. On second issue, it just broke down again with the same F51 issue. I am waiting for service again.

Wow! I had no idea that so many people were also having the same problems I have had with my Whirlpool Cabrio Washer. It beeps many times every load, telling me it's overloaded or showing many different codes. I have had a repair man here once just to tell me,"Yep, the brain is not working. It will cost you more to fix it than if you just go buy a new one."

I have never had all the electronic problems with the washer that others are reporting. I bought it three years ago and have had no issues with it. It is not, however, a good product. Because it is an HE washer, it uses very little water and I believe this is why it simply does not clean clothes well. We have four dogs with the resulting hair and it washes very little hair out of clothing, bedding, etc. We have to run it through several cycles to get the hair off enough to allow the dryer to handle the rest. I'm very disappointed with the product. If we could adjust it so that it adds more water to the tub, I think this would fix our issues. Whirlpool states that it isn't possible to change the water levels. We spent $1800 on the washer and dryer combo. We'd have been better off with a much cheaper washer.

There was a metallic noise while it spins. With a warranty period of two years (date of purchase-22-10-2008), I handed it over to service center on 26-07-2010. It was told to me that they cannot tell that how much time is needed to repair. Since washing machine is an essential item, purchase of the same was made from a reputed company like M/S Whirlpool. Better service is expected.

On the 24th of June, I purchased a Whirlpool 6-kg washing machine at Game Key West. On the 23rd of July, I have reported that the drain hose of the washing machine was faulty. After several calls, the following day two technicians came out saying that the drain hose was not included in the warranty and that they will be responding on Monday the 26th, yet to no avail. This machine is still under warranty. Game including Whirlpool, are just passing the bucket, doing nothing about the matter and I told the technicians that the machine are very noisy too. They checked and left. I have requested that the machine must be replaced, yet no response.

I have Whirlpool Washing Machine 6th Sense (serial no. 63202141, model no. 9421). It was purchased on 08-30-2006. During the washing process, it caught fire as the machine switchboard short circuited. It damaged complete cloths and burned the hand of homemaker. The area of the room was completely ruined.

We purchased the Cabrio washer in 2007, and the first pump problem appeared just shy of one year, while it was covered under warranty. Whirlpool said it was from the detergent I used (I used the HX2). The tech said it was from change and things getting sucked down and not being able to retrieve them. The second pump went almost exactly a year later in 2009, and the third pump went almost exactly a year later, two months ago (2010). We are paying for the new pumps, and luckily my husband can install them.

.

On 6/1/07 I purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer Machine (Model #WTW6200SW) at PC Richards in Rockville Centre NY for $700.00 I also purchased an additional year warranty effective 6/2/08 - 6/2/09. I received numerous offers to extended my warranty throughout 2009. I must have received 15 offers within 10 months however do to the economy, I could not afford to extend my warranty for another year as I did not have the money. Well, sure enough, almost to the day, 1 year after my extended warranty, my machine breaks!

I continue to get an error code F51. It used to come on just during the washer cycle, now it comes on when turning the washer on, which results in having to turn the washer completely off and try again to start. This usually takes about 3 times. If it makes it through this, you still get the error code during the cycle, which when the code comes on the cycle stops, and you have to rearrange and hope it works. That may last a few minutes before you have to do it again. Usually, you have to shut off the washer, let it drain, then put it through the drain and spin cycle and hope it makes it through that. It odes this no matter the washer load size, sheets or one pair of panties its the same.

This has been the worst product, thus far, that we have purchased. All I can say that it is junk. I am now on the third mother board which was installed yesterday and the machine is still throwing messages to me which now is "OL." How can a machine be overloaded with two items in it? It goes from filling up to spin with soapy clothes which were never washed and when all is done, the clothes are still soaking! This machine is not used a lot. I would hate to think of a family with small children because it would never make it! I have had washing machines 15 years with no service calls and this one is not even 4 years old! Make a machine that cleans clothes and does not give you messages!

We purchased the Whirlpool Cabrio washer and dryer-- supposedly the latest in energy and water saving. When clothes began to come out torn and damaged i.e. underwire bras mangled beyond repair, pockets on pants ripped shirts twisted to the point of shredding, we allowed the washer to fill and then checked it level. The water level was so minuscule that the clothes were mangled. Because of this wringing, the clothes were majorly wrinkled. Onto the dryer... We were advised by our sales rep at Appliance Smart that the heat sensors in these dryers cause us not to be able to use the dryer sheets because they cause a film to build up on the sensor and it stops working. So no dryer sheets and twisted, mangled clothes makes for very wrinkled clothing and lots of ironing.

Regarding the Cabrio Washer, I've never been so disappointed in a product in my entire life. I purchased my Cabrio w/d set in '06 and it's been a total disaster. In fact, I am waiting for yet another repairman for the washer. It continuously gets out of balance, flashes the UL code, even when it's empty! Additionally, when it's spinning, it now sounds like a 747 taking off; The set is in the garage, the door (a solid wooden one) to the house is shut, and the noise overtakes the television. Is anyone interested or have any knowledge of a class action against Whirlpool due to this defective product? The complaints are numerous and identical. Please advise.

I bought a Whirlpool Cabrio top load washer less than a year ago, and I am having my 2nd service call, because the water won't pump out (seems there were pennies in the pump). And it sounded like a handful of screws were in the machine. Now, it is leaking on the floor. This was over $1,000. I will never buy Whirlpool again.

We purchased a Cabrio Washer in July of 2009 from Sears along with a 5-year extended warranty. Since the purchase, there have been several times that we get error messages that tell us it is too full when it is not (only a couple items like a delicate load) and it shuts down on us. We have had to turn the power off and restart the load completely. Well, on May 29th (less than 11 months old), it shut down completely and would not drain the water. A&E whom both Whirlpool and Sears use for servicing under warranty could not get a serviceman here until June 10th.

Whirlpool duet dryer stopped heating when it was just only 2 years and 4 months old. This costs $1,000.00 because it is one of those front loaders. The two-year service plan expired in March 2010. I am sick and tired of having to buy these service plans for appliances. Don't manufacturers have confidence in their products? I'm upset that I have to pay a repairman. How convenient that right after two years, the appliance stops working!

My Cabrio washer keeps giving me an LD error code. I keep adjusting/removing the clothing thinking it's off balance. I restart and sometimes it washes and sometimes it won't. All of the attempts result in no spinning and not draining all the way. The service man said it was the drain pump. He replaced it and still the same thing. Next he's going to try the sensor in the motor. I am two weeks without a working washer! I have been reading loads of complaints on this brand.

We purchased our top of the line Whirlpool front load washer and dryer and after one week, the washing machine stopped working. We called on Friday for a repairman who came promptly on Monday. It was seven weeks ago and we still don't have the parts to fix the machine and to top that off, my husband who is very capable of fixing this machine doesn't even think that the guy knows what he's doing.

We bought a Whirlpool WTW5600SQ (top loading) in June of 2008. We have a large puddle of oil under the machine and infer that the transmission is leaking. The estimated cost to replace transmission and clutch is close to the amount we paid for the machine. Whirlpool says they will pay half the parts cost, but we must order from them with credit card, to be shipped to us from one of their warehouses.

I bought a cabrio washer and dryer in April 07. In Oct. 09, the washer broke. It had a faulty drain pump. Our warranty had expired so had to pay to have it replaced. Then a couple of weeks ago, the washer broke again, cracked stator. I paid to get it fixed, still didn’t work. It needs new computer board. The dryer has broken once due to a part failure and it also had to have the door catches replaced.

I am using 6.5kg washing machine (Sensation) for quite some time. This machine is under AMC. From Sunday onwards (13th June), it stopped working. I have already lodged complaint yesterday. Your SLA says that within 2 hours somebody will call to customer. Till this time nobody has made call to me. Yesterday evening at 18:00 hours I called up but operator did not know the status of complaint and promised me to call back. Today morning also I have left VM and not received any call. I am facing lot of inconvenience. Request you to look into this and revert.

This is with regards to my complaint registered with Whirlpool India (complaint No. PN0410004139 on 12th April 2010) for the washing machine I purchased on 14th August 2008. The washing machine has a two-year Warranty. I have been following up on the same and have received no response so far. I have spoken to the service center, call center and service engineer with no resolution. I made calls worth Rs.150/- for 226 minutes. Two months of non service, three days of non pay due to leaves that I had to take waiting for a service engineer.

My Whirlpool Cabrio washer had been acting up for awhile. I would push the power button, then the start button and it would start, then stop. I would then have to push the pause and start buttons 15 to 20 times and do it again mid-cycle to get the machine to run. I had an A&E repair man out here on June 3, 2010 to fix this issue. I came home and it was not fixed. My niece had been here while I was at work. After calling A&E, he came back on Saturday, June 5, 2010. He ordered a part, which was a wrong part.

I am leaving in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. I bought a washing machine model Whirlpool AWZ 475 last October. This machine is still under guaranty. I have a problem with this machine from 3 or four months ago. The symptoms of the problem are: Washing and spinning no problem only when the machine is in position dryer start the problem. When the machine is on dryer position, the drum of the machine one time turn left and one time on the right and the water pump in one position. When start the rotation of the drum and the pump start a lot of time I can hear a noise like Clac, clac, clac like a an electromechanical relay closing two or three times. This the problem call the Zazoog company (where I bought the machine) to solve this problem. Three technicians came and in the beginning they told me the machine is working properly, because they put on the dryer during a short time may be 5 minutes and I say wait and they hear the noise. They told me the problem is from the pump and they change the pump.

I purchased a Whirlpool Washer Front Loader Duet HT in 2005. It was first repaired in 2008 due to a leaking problem. In April of 2010 a bearing broke. As of today June 5, 2010, I am still waiting for the bearing! Weekly calls are made to the repair service and Whirlpool. I am told the part is still not in stock! I was told it may be available after June 14th! I will never buy another Whirlpool product! The company definitely has a major problem with quality control and customer service. My town does not have a Laundromat, so I must travel to another town to do my laundry.

When purchased, I was told it would be the last Washer/Dryer I would need to ever buy. Also, it would be very earth friendly to own an Energy/Soap efficient product as opposed to the conventional appliance! It would be the "wave" of the future in clothes cleaning, etc. It washed my clothes great for about the first 6-8 months then started to not clean as well as it did and eventually started to not wash a full cycle without having to re-start a cycle. Now it won't do a load at all.

My wife and I looked at various models of new clothes washers and dryers. We were leaning toward the LG, but the Whirlpool was listed as about $200 less and had the same features. The washer works okay but the dryer is awful. The steam feature does not remove wrinkles. We had service on it three times and each time we were told it was working as it was supposed to. I sent an e-mail to Whirlpool and complained. They sent me an email stating it was working as specified and I needed to live with it. The old Maytag used by Noah removed wrinkles better than this thing does with or without steam. Ergo, no more Whirlpool appliances even if they are giving them away. We have to iron everything since the steam feature is a sham.

I've trying for 5 weeks to get service on my washer and dryer to no avail. The excuse has been some sort of computer problem. **, you can build a computer in 5 weeks. As of today 5/26/10, they still will not honor their contract with me nor will they give a date when this issue will be resolved. Please help me. Thanks.

I bought a Whirlpool washer 7 years ago. It is rusting to pieces. The bleach dispenser on the side did not seal and leaked when liquid bleach would be put in and it began to rust. The machine has run very well but it has fallen to pieces. Before this, I had another Whirlpool washer for 25 years and it looked better than this. We only had to replace the pump. Maybe we should have kept doing that. I am replacing a washer far too soon. What happened to Whirlpool quality?

My husband and I purchased a washer and dryer on September 29, 2009. This is the worst washer I've ever had. It's very loud, rattles, shakes the whole house and clunks at the end of a cycle. I cringe every time I use it. I called the dealer where it was purchased the first week. They sent someone out to look at it and said it was fine. After four months, I called again to see if I could trade it for a better one and they said they would buy it back for a certain percent of what we paid. After discussing it with my husband, we decided to just wait until it stops working (which I'm sure will be soon) and get a new one. I will never buy another Whirlpool and never go back to the place we purchased it from. This is the third set of washers and dryers that we've had in 30 years and one we gave away when we sold our last home and never have we had this problem.

I purchased a Whirlpool Cabrios washer and dryer in July 2007. Have had many problems including balancing, broken door clips, and tub spinning. Too many service calls. Thank goodness for extended warranty. Looking for a reliable washer and dryer.

I have Kenmore Elite Oasis HE model # 110-27072602, serial # ct487195. At first, it was the signal beeping all during the wash. Now the washer has stopped completely.

I just purchased a New Whirlpool Duet washing machine on 1-8-2010 and now it needs three new parts because the bearings are bad. All the parts are on backorder until 5-14-10. This is totally unacceptable for such a new machine. I have asked for them to send new machine but got all kinds of reasons why this can't be done. This is terrible service for the customer and they are not to concerned about making it right. Do not purchase any of their washing machines as I have found many complaints and problems. Why can companies get away with this? I can understand products need repairs but this machine is only four months old.

I purchased a Whirlpool washer drier (model WET3300sq) in Jan. 09. I have had 7 failures where the hot water runs cold and the cold runs hot. All rinses are hot as well. First failure was two months after purchase. Remaining failures have been 2-6 weeks after repair. Local dealer has been good but Whirlpool’s service is bad. They want to find any excuse why the problem is not theirs. I have a wardrobe full of shrunk clothes and a manufacturer that should not be in business. Never buy Whirlpool.

I bought the Duet series washer and dryer. At first it appeared that the washer was okay but the dryer worked off and on. The dryer was replaced 6 days after it was delivered. Then I started to use the washer and it was leaking. The repair people came out several times. What is wrong with this picture is, it is a new machine and they finally replaced a part. Apparently that was not the problem and now the machine leaks so bad I can't use it. I'm still waiting to hear if the machine can be replaced and it is 3 weeks since I bought it.

I purchased a Whirlpool washer 3 yrs ago and it already has bearing problems. The washer I had before it was 12 years old when I sold it and got this junk. And what does Whirlpool say? It's not in warranty. Imagine that. I don't expect you guys to fix every little problem with my washer but a bearing in 3 years. What does it cost to fix any way? I can tell you this. If it is not fixed, I will never buy another Whirlpool appliance or anything else that is affiliated with Whirlpool and tell everyone I know my experience. Let's see what costs you more.

In July 2009, we purchased a Whirlpool duet washer & dryer set along with pedestal bases. The washer ran fine for the first 9 months. Then, one day, when I was ready to wash a load, there was no power to washer. My husband checked the outlet with a volt meter. It was fine, and had power. We called Whirlpool 800 number, were told to unplug washer, and wait 20 minutes so computer could reset itself. I did that, still there was no power. I was given 3 names of authorized repairmen.I had to wait until that Monday. I called, and made the appointment. A man came out, checked the washer, and states that we needed a control panel circuit board which will have to be ordered; if it is in stock, it will take 3-5 days shipping. So, we did that. Finally, the part came in. The mechanic put in the part, did a "quick wash" as a test.

I paid for an extended service plan for my Whirlpool Washer on 4/12/10. They charged my credit card $200.00 on that same day. I have been calling for service every day since the 14th and I am being told that the service contract is not opening up on their system and they cannot service my washer. I am not able to do laundry in the comfort of my own home. I am forced to go to the Laundry Mat and pay for washing expenses.

On 02/09, I purchased a WFW9600 Whirlpool washing machine. Last month it started coding F35 and the SUD, nothing in the book mentions this code. I searched the web and found many others with a similar issue, the sensor. I called A&E and scheduled a repair, they called 45 minutes before he was due to say the "tech could not make it, too many calls for him today".

We bought a brand new condo and our machine never worked. So far, we've had a service technician, 2 no-shows, 2 circuit boards replaced, and it still doesn't work. Whirlpool will not replace it until a technician deems it unrepeatable. I've had to take 5 afternoons off from work to date, spent significant money on laundry at the dry cleaners, and significant amount of time on the phone to Whirlpool and the repair company.

I purchased a Whirlpool Capria washer and the warranty ran out on February 11th. The sensor went out on it. The repair man from Best Buy, who's charging me $286.00, said that the majority of calls are to replace the sensor and to keep my receipt in case of a class action lawsuit. I have contacted the company waiting for a response. I have to wait until the end of the week for the part and his comment was "if it was still under warranty I would have it sooner". $286.00 dollars so far. With reading the blogs I am afraid of more problems. I may be complaining too soon, but with the repair man’s comments I felt I need to be proactive. Thank you!

Purchased a new gas water heater from Lowe's on 3/21/10 and already it is a problem. The pilot doesn't stay lite and will not relight. Whirlpool has known about this problem for years but yet to correct it. Or sure they will send you a part to fix it but it happens again and again. I recommend that no 1 ever purchases a gas water heater from Whirlpool.

My experience with Whirlpool is very bad. I bought a Cabrio top loader 2006. It ran for 2 yrs good. Then it started so many problems after problems. Three times the board was changed. The 4th time, it was out of warranty. I paid to A&E from my pocket. The board went bad again. I took insurance from A&E. Before it broke, we decided to by a new Bosch. Now we use Bosch. Be careful with Whirlpool Cabrio. Thanks to Whirlpool, I lost $3000.

I had a Maytag Neptune frontloader that stayed full of mildew and mold and stink! Come to find out there had been a recall. I am an informed person and never heard of it nor was I ever contacted by M/W. They said that I did not send in the warranty card. I always send in the warranty cards. They would not do anything although there had been a recall. Then I bought a Whirlpool Duet. Guess what? Same problem. Do not buy these terrible appliances. Trouble is Whirlpool owns so many appliance brands that it is impossible to get around this company. The lie about the warranty card was totally unscrupulous and if they didn't have it, they lost it. Too bad. Once again, the consumer gets screwed. The completely awful smell. Who can wipe down the inside of their washing machine after every use? The damage is that I am stuck with another sorry product from Whirlpool.

I have a Whirlpool washer which has an extra rinse cycle. The problem is that it will rinse but the clothes are not spun very dry and are too soggy to put into the dryer. I have to avoid this cycle to get the clothes sufficiently spun. This is a new top loading machine. The consequence is inconvenience and not giving me the proper feature I thought I was paying for. Poor working quality.

Whirlpool Dues Sport HT has quit working with an error code and door locking. The CCU has not been available from Whirlpool for three months now. I did by chance find one on eBay and it was also faulty. I can't get any support from Whirlpool because I am 4 months out of a one year warranty. The local Whirlpool dealer claims they know of 30 other customers in the Twin Cities waiting for the same part. This appears to be a known issue for Whirlpool and they should have a recall to satisfy their customers. We have been without a washer for three months. This has been a great burden on us having to go to the laundry mat and to friends houses to wash our clothes, especially for a washer only 1 year 4 months old. Is their a class action suit with other consumers with the same issues?

I had bought a brand-new home and went to Lowe's and bought the Whirlpool Duet Sport front-load washer and dryer. I did not want a Whirlpool, but the salesman had talked me into it. After owning it for about 6 months, it began to leak and ruined my new flooring. A&E Factory Service came out and "repaired" the problem, and Whirlpool gave me a settlement of, I think it was, $2,500.

I purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer in November of 2007. I had to replace the pump due to an object getting trapped causing a hole in it. This was 2 months ago and I am now again seeing water coming from under the washer again. I was told by the repair man that the first time, they will replace at no cost and after, it will cost me up to $165.00 to repair. This is a joke! If the washer machine was built properly, there would not be a problem with stuff getting through to the pump area! I have never seen this happen before and I'm wondering why it happens with this particular model.

My Whirlpool duet washing machine is 5 years old. I am on my second motor and I have to now buy a new one. This model has always shaken and over the past 2 years, we have noticed a moldy smell from the barrel and on our clothes. Many times, I've had to rewash the clothes. Now there are white plastic pieces breaking off, getting all over the clothes, in the barrel and in the new motor. We have to buy a new washing machine and it will not be a Whirlpool. We need to spend more money on a new machine. We lost over $500 on the new engine and the entire barrel is breaking away.

I purchased the Maytag Bravo Washer from Home Depot. Before owning one year, we had to have service, A&E to repair the washer. When ordering parts, they said I had to wait 3 months before receiving them until I called to rush the part. Then after two years, the tubs rusted to the support system and could not be pried apart.

I purchase a Cabrio Washer/Dryer set in August 2007. The dryer first had problems with the small hinges in the door not working, which caused the door not to shut. I had to call a repairman for this 2 different times. The washer started getting loose change somewhere inside. I was not able to locate how the change got down inside. You could hear it, but not see it. It finally worked its way into the pump. This caused the pump to get a hole in it. I called the repairman and it cost me $165.00 to have it repaired.

I am so disappointed in my Whirlpool washer. I have had so much trouble from this washer, I'm really upset. I called the store where I bought the piece of crap the first time it broke.They couldn't send out a repair man right away because they only have one repair man between here and Beckley to work on the washers. So being that, my husband and I have adopted five of our grandchildren.

I bought a Stackable Model Wet 330005Q1 from Romano's on McDowell rd in Nov of' 08. I had it a month and had to have two relays replaced under warranty and now on 3-1-10, I have to have a temp control switch replaced. I understand the models as well as the side by side have had this problem a lot during the first or second year of production. We are five and a half month visitors to AZ and have only used this machine about 11 months. I feel that someone should extend our warranty time or absorb the cost of the repairs. Please give me some info and let me know if you really stand behind your product. Thanks. Other than a dent in the pocket book to the tune of about $150 bucks that is due to a chronic malfunction of the unit, service to the unit has been very good.

I was very excited to have purchased a new front load washer and dryer along with pedestals. These arrived in August 2009. By November 2009, we got a F20 code, the cycle would start and then it would flash F20 and you could not do anything but unplug it and then you would have to switch to drain and hope to hell it would drain. When I called Whirlpool, they sent a tech out. He was instructed by Whirlpool tech support that some part needed to be replaced. This was ordered and it took four days to come from Brampton to Mississauga (I could walk faster). When the tech came back and put in the new part, F20 popped up again. He then got back on the phone with Whirlpool tech support and was told that he needed another part but unfortunately there were none in North America (go figure how the *** do you build these things if none of the parts are available).

Since I bought a Whirpool Machine Awm 6600 and my clothes became more dirty especially the white. I really don't know the reason except for the machine working more than two hours each time I want to wash. I want any telephone number to speak to anybody in Beirut. I would appreciate if someone could call me.

Well, i will start to tell you that I was so happy to be able to get a whirlpool washer here that I bought one and what a lemon did I get, and to make matters worst, I have not been able to get no one here to fix it since I bought it. They told me that I have to pay now if I want it fix, when I have been trying since the first week I bought it, i know that it was not from the USA but it has the whirlpool logo. And to make matters more worst, I lost a new rug that was they gave me a book that came with it and it has some number but when I tried to call, they told me no working number. It is a fl5064/2 (oversead)suq.003437705816 serial number: 340538005922 mono220-230v. It say made in EU. I need for somebody to help me.

I bought a Whirlpool (Model: WTW5300VW) washer at Lowe's on 13 January 2010. I would have bought a Maytag if the old Newton, Iowa machines were still available. But now, Maytag top-loaders are just re-badged as Whirlpools. This machine had the fewest electronic gizmos and mechanical gewgaws of any conventional top-loader, and the best reviews of any machine I researched. The "next-day delivery" occurred on 21 January due to machine availability.

We have a Whirlpool duet washer (ghw9100 ) which we owed for four years. Just long enough for the extended warranty to run out, it became unusable. It had been shaking for some time when the front had plastic pieces peeling and sheering off the tub. A repair person showed us how the back of the steel basket broke into three pieces. I called Whirlpool due to a 10 year warranty on the basket. They said we need to have a service person do all repairs and they will send us the parts. It will cost more to repair than buying a new washer. I spent 1,000 dollars to the last four years. What a load of [bad product]?

Our Whirlpool Duet Sport Washer is constantly walking across the floor. I'm waiting for a Sears repairman again. One was here two weeks ago, added an extra spring on the tub, and said that he would never buy one. They have continuous complaints, they don't get the clothes as clean, etc. I wish the salesman had told me all this.

In March 2009, I bought a washer/dryer combo from Whirlpool Canada, one of the modern computerized sets. Everything was great until mid December when the dryer suddenly stopped working. The power was on but nothing happened. Since then, I have had three repairmen "fix" the unit. Each time they would change a part and it would work for one load then stop. I have just had a repairmen here not two hours ago who also "fixed" the problem (this guy was supposed to be a specialist). Since then, It has not worked.

We had a repair taken care of regarding the washer. We were getting the code error F35 which means we needed a new sensor. We read a lot of complaints on this on line. It seems to me that there is a need for the company to come forward and fix the repair on their own dime. $300 later, I could have bought a new top loader washer. Please see if there is anything that can be done.

This washer is a nightmare! It is always unbalanced, but I had learned to live with that. But in the last three months, almost the entire thing has been replaced under the extended warranty I bought. After today’s visit where they replaced the entire inner barrel, the service man wants to order the last two pieces that haven't been replaced inside of it! I have not had a working washer in three months and when it did work, it randomly flooded my floor and was constantly unbalanced. I know there are hundreds if not more than thousands of others with equal problems, and I feel it is about time someone holds Whirlpool responsible for ripping off the public.

After seven years in use, this product failed to the point that the warranty company deemed it too expensive to repair.

I purchased Whirlpool Duet Sport Washer Dryer Combo with the pedestals on October 7, 2008. This thing rocks and knocks. I have been told to put rubber blocks under the thing. $40.00 for this and it rocks worse. I just had it repaired; the computer board went out (November 18, 2009). It’s out of warranty but they repaired at no charge. I hate this machine. I do not want a washer that knocks and sounds like a jet coming through my home. The pedestal is not made to support this washer. The washer is too heavy for home use. They say I need to jack up my floors with Jacks from Lowe's Home Improvement. They should not be allowed to sell a product that is not made for home use.

I have six Whirlpool appliances. They were two years old except for my washing machine which was 13 months old. It was out of warranty and completely done. It needed more repair than I paid for it. I bought a new Whirlpool washing machine because it was out of warranty. Now my dishwasher needs $671.00 worth of repair. Whirlpool sent me the parts but refused to pay for labor. The labor is $169.00. I'm thinking if I should put $169.00 into a new dishwasher. By the way, not a Whirlpool!

In 2008, I purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio washer. My clothes are starting to look gray and dingy. I use the same detergent and clothe whiteners. My sheets come out of the washer tied in knots. It takes my husband and I both to get the sheets out. Blue jean legs are tangled so bad I feel like I'm about to pull my arms out of place. I have had Spichers Appliances out to look at the washer. The problem is there is not enough water that goes into the machine to even make the clothes wet enough to come clean. I have bleached marks on my towels where the bleach dispenser releases the bleach onto dry towels.

I didn't deal with any company because of the complaints involved, but I had my Whirlpool for approximately two years and every now and then, a big boom sounds and the plastic gizmo that is right in the front as you open the dryer washer door where the water flows out to fill the washer today got real slow filling up. I reached in thinking it was a filter and wanted to pull it out gently. When I did, it broke off on one side and it felt like old plastic that was in the sun for years. Now I am afraid that water is going to fill up in the washer's housing. I thought that it was a sturdy washer called Whirlpool, but I have other ideas now. I had a Kenmore and this washer lasted more than ten years without a problem. Kenmore is made by Whirlpool.

We have owned a Cabrio washer for four years now and it always has issues when you load it to the capacity, which is the reason we bought it so we could do larger loads and save money which we were sold on. After the warranty passed, it started to leak. I never overload it and certainly not to the max capacity as it is constantly unbalanced which causes it to stop and show a code which means nothing to us. Our clothes are clearly taking a beating as some are ripped and just worn out faster due to washing. I regret buying this unit without the middle section in it also to help, so the clothes don't become one big twisted knot which is what comes out at the end of each cycle. It leaks water on the floor all the time and in short, was a complete waste of money. Completely unreliable. Has Whirlpool done anything in terms of a recall on these units? They need to be held more accountable for their products. Clearly, the product testing was not thorough enough or they are not using their own products.

The rubber boot (part no. 26 110 8182119 1) which seals the door developed a tear over a metal vent causing a leak. This is the second time in just over a year. First repair was on 4/14/08. Second time was on 11/11/09. You can feel the vent pressing on the boot and it is evident that it is causing pressure which results in an eventual tear and leakage. This is a flaw in design or product failure which will result in continuous problems. We have an extended protection plan, so our cost was only $11.21. The issue is that it has happened twice now and it is evident it will happen again because of the design flaw. We will have to continue replacing this and eventually our warranty will expire. Also, there is a possibility of damage to the floor if we do not catch the problem.

We purchased a Whirlpool Duet Sport washer and dryer. The washer was delivered in June 2008. It worked okay for the first few months, then began to get louder and louder on the spin cycle to the point where it sounded like a jet was taking off in our laundry room. We called Sears and they had us contact a technician. They came out and said it was the bearings and would have to replace it and some other parts. This was under warranty. In July 2009, we had the same problem. The technicians came out and said it would be 3-4 weeks to get parts. They called us at the beginning of November and said that the parts alone would be between $500 and $600, plus labor on top of that. Because it was fixed under warranty the first time, there is no warranty on the parts or labor now.

They delivered a new front loading Whirlpool Duet Sport on 09-03-09. Washing machine would not stay on by 10-25-09. Repairman stated on 10-28-09 I would need a new control panel and it would be in the following week. They were to do the repair work on 11-04-09. The parts are not in and now the hope is to have it repaired on 11-12-09, if parts are available. I am a family of one and have not run 20 loads through this machine. The only response I get from Whirlpool is it is man made and they do no replace faulty equipment. This lack of moral and ethical responsibility on the part of Whirlpool is so wrong. Why isn't there a recourse for disreputable manufacturers such as these?

I purchased a Whirlpool Duet Front Loading washer in July 2007. Two months after, I had the machine it broke down. Whirlpool replaced the computer. Over the next 1 1/2 years, it has had the drum replaced 4-5 times. Whirlpool will not replace my machine. It has been the worst appliance purchase I have ever made. I feel duped and stuck. Can you help? I have read online that tons of others have had the same issues with noise and clunking with this machine. I can't believe they don't recall it. I am waiting for the repairman to come on 11/3 again! God help me. I hate going to the Laundromat. It takes weeks to get the parts. #WFW9200SQ00, Serial #CSU1311103, Type 199.

I bought a brand new Whirlpool Duet Sport Washer and have used it about 15-20 times. The control unit has already failed, leaving me with all my clothes locked inside, with no instructions in the manual for a door lock override. As it turns out, you had to remove an access panel - what a dumb design. Whirlpool's authorized service was not available on weekends and when I called Saturday morning, I was told that the earliest they could even look at it would be on Thursday afternoon. Then, of course, they would need to order a control unit or door lock unit; and maybe two weeks later, they might have time to actually fix it. I would need to travel to a laundromat to do my laundry and lose many hours. Plus, I would have to leave work to meet the repair guy on his schedule, not mine, so I would lose billable time at work. No appliance should fail within a month like this. Buyers beware: this thing is junk.

My washing machine (fully automated) board got damaged. I have warranty period. Whirlpool customer service executive has taken the complaint on 9th of October for replacing the board. We are calling on a daily basis to local customer service centre (Rajamundry) and yesterday onwards calling to Hyderabad customer care centre. It was discussed to Suresh, Kiran, Sultan and Bala many times. But there was no given good response. It is already 20 days completed. Every service should complete by 7 days. But still, there is no progress on this. This is very irresponsible. Please help me in this regard.

Whirlpool Cabrio washer machine has destroyed our clothes and towels. I have to buy a different washer machine and new clothes and towels.

The machine is less than 3 years old and we are getting F11 code all the time. My sister has the same machine for 5 years. Old same problem, F11 code.

I purchased a Whirlpool washer on June 16, 2009 at an appliance warehouse in South Portland, Maine. It was delivered on the 19th. It stopped working in less than 10 weeks on 9- 02-09. There was no water entering and it would spin. After repeated repair efforts, parts problems and hours of technician time, Gary ** finally got it to work on October 3. It is now broken again, same problem and today is only October 9. Whirlpool will not replace the washer as long as it can be repaired. Appliance warehouse has a 30-day return policy. What can I do to get my money back or to have the washer replaced? What recourse do I have?

Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer is 7 years old. Dryer has had a circuit board replaced and it still does not produce much heat. The washer has never washed properly. Clothes have always smelled moldy. There are constant errors, the door lock constantly freezes, sometimes it is not draining properly. Today it just locked up and quit. These are junk! They should have been $100 apiece, not $1,000 apiece, huge rip off! I want my money back!

We bought a new Whirlpool sport duet set the end of May and installed it the first part of June. First we had to run a whole new circuit for the washer because it wouldn't run on a circuit with anything else. The first part of August, it just quit working. You push start and it goes off. I called Whirlpool, had to take a day off to wait on a repairman, only to have him say he'd have to order a part - the computer control board. The parts place told him it would be in in one week. It never came. We called him and Whirlpool. They did a nationwide search and found that they could not get that part anywhere, so they told us they would replace the washer and pick up the defective one.

Our Whirlpool Cabrio washer/dryer have been nothing but headaches. The dryer has been unusually noisy from the start. It has been looked at 3 times and nothing can be done about the noise. When people are over and they hear the dryer, they always comment on it. The washer just had to have the computer board replaced for $375.00 and now the RPS sensor is bad. We have wasted time and money on this washer/dryer. We have had to go without washing clothes until they can be repaired. We have had to take time off work for the repair visit. Only certain models are recalled even though all of the machines are doing the same thing. It's not fair. We bought these in good faith, spent a lot of money on them, and have been sold defective products. Whirlpool needs to make this right.

My washer that is only two years old shuts down with an F1 error code. Researching on the Internet, I found that many have the same issues. The repairs are very costly and Whirlpool will not stand by the product, leaving consumers stranded. Since mine is out of warranty, they said, "too bad." There should be a recall on the product.

I purchased my duet washer and dryer last February. The washer I got didn't work right out of the box. It was replaced with a different washer. I took out a 5-year extended warranty. I just paid off the loan on Thursday and on Friday, the machine stopped working. It comes up with a SUD and F35 code. I have been told it is an analog pressure switch. The repairman came out a week later and didn't have the part so he had to order it. Okay, another week has gone by and still no part. I called the warranty place and was told the part was approved, but no one could tell me when the part would be shipped to the repair shop. I paid a lot of money for this set and after one year, the second washer is not working.

I ordered a propeller part from Whirlpool. A couple of months ago, I finally got someone to come to replace it. The inside of the new part has no sprockets. The part is defective and Whirlpool will not reimburse me ($80.00) and not even send me a new one.

We purchased a Whirlpool Duet washer & dryer in 2008. Colored clothes are dull and white clothes are grey. I called Whirlpool customer service at 8-253-1301 and she said, "I don't know why this is happening." No help at all. In addition, the duet dryer doesn't get clothes dry enough and we have to run them extra time. We will never purchase a Whirlpool again.

I have a Whirlpool Duet GHW9400SUO washer. Up to the last three months, I have had problems with this washer: 1st, white towels and everything else that have light colors were turning brown and I had no idea what was going on; 2nd, some of the towels and others got rips and tears on them; 3rd, now I am getting a code FH and TH. This is too much. I paid a lot of money for this washer when I could have bought a top load for $200 that would have lasted at least 5 years and still could have sold it for $100 five years later. I took out a 1-year warranty on it, but I was not paying any more money on this. It’s a rip-off. My water bill has doubled and I pay $25.00 more a month on my electric bill. Now, I have to stand by to reset the washer every 2 to 3 minutes to get a load done.

Clothes do not get clean. Dryer leaves clothes and linens wrinkled. Dryer does not dry thoroughly. These are consistent problems and I just want to register my experience with these products. I would not buy them again. I do not recommend them to my friends.

I purchased the Cabrio front load washer and dryer on 10/27/06. I never had a problem until a strange code started showing up on my washer. I did some research and found that there was a defect in certain washers. I called amongst the many consumers affected by the recall, only to be told that my washer was not one of the serial numbers affected. To be courteous, they agreed to pay for parts and I will pay for labor and service charges of a company under contract with them. I agreed. Upon more research and the thousands of complaints, I found that individuals with my series were offered full repairs. I called back only to get a song and dance about how they were doing me a service.

I have a Cabrio by Whirlpool washing machine that has been repaired twice for the same problem, which is stopping in mid-cycle and shutting down. I have repair bills that have totaled more than $400.00 on a 2-year old washing machine.

Cabrio washer model #wtw6600sw generates F1 fault code for the past month when starting the washer. The machine was purchased in April of 2007. I must push the Pause Cancel button, then Start button to get the washer to function. This machine is costing me money in that when it does wash, the cycles are continuously using water and not cycling off as it should.

We purchased a Whirlpool washer (WWTW57ESVWW-WH) and received it on 7/15/09. The machine shreds clothes on the regular wash cycle, which is related to a water level sensor problem. It either puts too little water in tub or defaults to the fill machine to the max water level. C&E was contracted by Bernie's to troubleshoot the problem, but they apparently found no problem but instructed us to not use the normal cycle, only the gentle cycle. This cycle does not remove soil and leaves too much water after spin, which requires inordinately long, dryer cycles. This is not energy-efficient. Many cases are documented that the water level sensor switches are defective in this model, which is why we do not want this machine. Bernie's wants a 10% restocking charge, which I do not feel we should pay; hence, this complaint.

The following is my complaint filed at www.BBB.org. Problem date is June 2009. Purchase date is 1/17/2007. Model number is WTW6300SW1. Serial number is CT3970060. Payment amount is $717.00 + 43.02 (6% PA tax) = $738.81 (sale price). Purchase done at Lowe's.

In 2004, I purchased a Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer. In 2006, I needed to call the store warranty technician to correct a control panel problem which was repaired quickly as the unit was under warranty. When I called again in 2009, I was informed that the parts alone would exceed $900.00 and the labor would be another $200.00 to $300.00. The bearing was gone on the rear drum. I was informed that this was a common occurrence with these washing machines as the bearing was in fact plastic. Since I didn't buy an extended warranty, I had no recourse but to purchase a new washer. I had purchased a pair of pedestals for the set. Now, I am left with a dryer on a pedestal and a new washing machine that sits on the floor. I will never again purchase Whirlpool products nor will I ever visit Flint Electrical. If there is someone out there who would like a two year old pedestal, please call me.

Whirlpool Duet washing machine has brown sludge around the washing basket, bad odor and continues to get brown sludge buildup. I had a repairman come to check out the machine. He said it's an ongoing problem with this machine. He suggested leaving the door to the washing machine open and to use Affresh, a tablet that you use monthly to help the situation. Worthless tablet, doesn't help at all! I'm reluctant to leave the washing machine door open due to safety issues with pets. I do however leave the door cracked, but doesn't really help the situation. Still, brown sludge buildup occurs.

I bought Whirlpool Sensation Elite on 17-8-07 from Vijay Electronics Jaipur. After 1 year, it started giving drain problem. I lodged a complaint (complaint no. **) on 23-9-08 and one person named Aslam came and checked and said, "There is no problem and I can’t wait for 1-2 hours to check problem so whenever problem came again call me on my cell (**)." Next day, when problem came, we called him but he never returned back and that complaint is still pending, and the company never ever took pain to resolve pending complaints.

I have been having problems with my Whirlpool Cabrio washing machine. I keep getting an F51 code. It basically shuts down the machine in mid-cycle. It happens anywhere from 2 to12 times during one load. You have to push Pause and then Start to get the load going again. Sometimes, that won't work either and you have to push Rinse and Spin and hope your clothes are clean. A repairman came out and said it was the control board that needed to be replaced and it would cost almost $500.

A couple of years ago our Whirlpool Gold dryer started marking brown marks on our clothing around 2-3 inches long. We contacted Whirlpool and they supplied us with a certified tech that corrected the problem by replacing a seal in 2007, which turns out to be a temporary fix. I have noticed this same mark again recently. I notified Whirlpool which advised they could pay for the part and we would have to pay for the labor. They set up a tech to come out. The guy called to say that he would have to come look to see what the problem is and for the first 10 minutes, the charge would be $65. So, I told him what the problem was and what part would be needed and he stated they don't keep that on the truck. He would have to come out to evaluate the problem in order to get the part and come back to fix it next week which in turn would have been well over $100, he stated.

I purchased 2 Whirlpool Cabrio washers last year and have had to have one serviced 6 times for the same thing. The machine is defective.

I bought new Whirlpool Cabrio washer, model #wtw6600sw1, serial #ct3971426, and I have to replace the control board two times. For all the customers alert, there is problem with Whirlpool Cabrio model and neither Whirlpool nor A&E is not covering the defaulted board. Whirlpool's customer care telephone numbers are 1800-253-1301 and 1800-771-3029.

I have wasted an entire day of my life trying to find out why my Whirlpool Cabrio washer is displaying the F51 code. I called several local authorized service centers who were completely clueless. Finally, one local guy gave me the number for Whirlpool and told me to ask them about the F51 code and to find out what parts he should order to make the repair. Whirlpool’s customer service was not helpful and refused to tell me what the error code meant. I requested to speak to a supervisor and the rep left me on hold for 20 minutes before I was disconnected. Apparently, this error code is a common occurrence for a Cabrio at 2 to 3 years out.

Two and a half years ago, we bought a Cabrio washer dryer set. Just recently, the washer started flashing an F1 error code. I did a search online and found out that this is a common problem with the Cabrio. Whirlpool has recalled the part and is fixing people's machines for free as a result. I was relieved to hear this since it is a $1000 machine and it should last longer than 2-1/2 years. I called customer service today, and was told that my model number is not covered under the recall, even though I am having the exact same problems as others whose machines were covered. I was offered help in scheduling a service call that I would have to pay for. I feel ripped off. I should have bought a less fancy machine for half the price. Lesson learned. I will never buy a Whirlpool appliance again.

I purchased the washing machine in 2007 and I have mold that accumulates on the underside of the door. I wiped it off with bleach and it comes back after I washed clothes the next time. I am fighting a never ending battle against the mold and smell in my laundry room.

We purchased the Whirlpool Duet Washer/Dryer from HHGregg in March 2009. The Washer model#WFW9500TW already need major parts: Basket, inner and outer, pulley, seals. Since the washer was only 4 months old, Whirlpool has sent a company out of Columbus, OH (A&E factory) to repair my washer. Whirlpool told me as long as the parts could be ordered they would "have" to fix it rather than replace it. I'm still waiting after 1 month of going back & forth with Whirlpool and the service techs. I still do not have the correct parts. What a hassle. I bought the 2nd to the top model thinking this would last me along time. Whirlpool did send me a $50 check for laundry expenses and did provide me with a claim form for damage done from leaking washer to the floor. I have received some parts but not everything needed according the the A&E Customer Service 1-800-905-9505. Last conversation I had with Whirlpool Consumer Agent, she said she would proceed with paperwork to replace my washer.

Okay, I paid over $2,094 for my Whirlpool washer and dryer and a five year maintenance agreement on 03/11/07. First of all, my washer does not have a metal plate with model number and serial number on it anywhere. It was purchased, delivered and set up by HHGregg. It had to be serviced at least 12 times since they were purchased. About two weeks ago, A & E Service came out here to replace a drum that was ordered a week prior. When the service technician replaced this drum, he said that he would not be paid for the service call because there was no metal plate with model number on the machine. A & E Service came out this morning about my dryer and a part has to be ordered for it! I will be out of a dryer for two weeks by the time they get back out here with the part.

I purchased a new washer on January 27. By mid-March, the machine broke. The part was ordered, and the machine was fixed after 2 weeks. It worked for 1 day. After 3 weeks, it was repaired for the second time. It worked for 1 day. Then, it was slated to be replaced. That was in May. It is now mid-July, and I still have no washer.

I had the repair company at house approximately 5-6 times to repair the leak in the front left of the washing machine. They believe it is a problem in the soap dispensing area. I also had problems with water gathering in the bleach dispenser, and the tub not filling completely. The washing machine is a Whirlpool Cabrio WTW6200VW0 (Serial Number: CW4471659). During the latest visit, the repairman said the techs had him order an updated tub ring when I was already advised that my model had the updated tub ring. I was told by the repair man that the techs were grasping at straws.

I had the repair company at our house approximately 5-6 times to repair the leak in the front left of the washing machine. They believe it is a problem in the soap dispensing area. I also had problems with water gathering in the bleach dispenser, and the tub not filling completely.

I bought one of those Whirlpool Calypso washers and the warranty has just expired, and I'm having trouble with the machine displaying error code lD. I talked with a repairman and he told me about the problems with this machine. I paid over $500 for this machine and I expect it to last more than two years.

I had purchased Whirlpool Sparkle washing machine on April 2, 20007. The company (Personal) has come to demonstrate the product at my home, but they have not told us that out of 3 motors only 2 are running at that time. When my wife has specifically asked for the same company (Personal) that said that the same is working like this only and it is normal. Today, I have faced a problem in using the machine and I have called the company. Now, they are saying that the motor is not working and I need to spend RS 2200 for repair of the same. There is much concern about the quality of service. They are saying expense of RS 2200 (i.e. 27.50% of the cost of the machine) to be incurred, which is just in 2 years.

I purchased a Whirlpool dryer and one month after the warranty had expired, two parts went out costing me over $200 and almost half the price of the machine. I will not be buying Whirlpool in the future.

While spinning, the machine jumps producing noise. I have already complained to the Muzaffarpur service center, but they were not able to solve it though from all their effort. The date of purchase was 6th of June 2009. From the very first day, we have this problem. Please kindly help us and we do need work. Thanks.

I have had over 12 repairmen out, and I paid over $500 for repairs, laundry mat fees, gas, and time. I've been without a washer for 3 months, while waiting for parts for months at a time. Customer service has hung up on me twice and offered no help. The Whirlpool Duet washer I own is a piece of junk. The repairman just left, and it sit once again dead while I wait for parts. Buyer, beware; Whirlpool Duet washer sucks. Take back your piece of junk. I will never buy a whirlpool product ever again.

We purchased a Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer plus a pedestal cabinet for each on 10-14-2003. We have had continued problems with black mold on the inside of the door, large rubber gasket in door and the dispenser, which even with proper cleaning and bleaching the machine, stays on the gasket and returns in the other areas. There is always a smell of mildew, even though I keep my door and dispenser open.

We bought a new Whirlpool 50 gallon propane hot water heater about 3 1/2 years ago from Lowe's. We have had trouble with it several times. We have already installed a conversion kit and a new thermocouple. We now have to replace the conversion kit again. The hot water heater's pilot will not stay lit, again. Whirlpool will not stand behind their product and replace it. They just keep offering us parts. We constantly have to deal with no hot water, we constantly have to relight the pilot, we always have to pay people to work on it and we constantly have to take time off to meet with repairmen. We are very upset about this situation! We will never buy another Whirlpool appliance again!

My front loading washer model #WFW9200SQ00 quit after 2 years. The rubber gasket inside self destructed, caved in on itself and took a few of my kid's shirts with it. We purchased this machine on 5/2007 for around $1100 thinking that a major appliance would have a life of around 20 years (like our parents'). I was shocked to learn that warranty is only one year and asked if I purchased extended warranty (I don't do this as a practice as I believe companies should stand by their products, these things are simply moneymakers). I did not have an extended warranty, but after the barrage of complaints I have read about these Whirlpool front loaders, I am not sure it would have made a difference.

I am a student, and I bought a new Whirlpool washer (model numberWTW5520SQO) in February 2007. Since then, the machine has had different malfunctions from loud vibrations to the house and grinding noise to leaving the clothes soaking wet. I called the different local service techs certified by Whirlpool. They all came up with different diagnoses from getting a new base to replacing other kinds of parts; indeed, a complex issue. They dismantled the washer on different occasions to no avail. All these took a period of about 1.5 years. Finally, they said that they are not able to fix it as warranty has run out. Talk of buying time.

I bought a Whirlpool about 3 years ago. It's now having a mildew smell in it around the seal. I have to leave my washer door open after every wash to ensure that the problem doesn't get worse. Whirlpool Duet model. I went to the local appliance center where I bought the washing machine and described to a saleswoman what the problem was. She said, "Yeah, you have to leave the door open or it will create mold around the seal." I was never told this by her when she sold this unit to me, plus I don't recall reading about having to leave the door open in the manual. The saleswoman told me to clean it with bleach. If that doesn't work, then use vinegar and water. If this still doesn't work, I will have to replace the seal.

I purchased a Whirlpool washer model #110WTW6200SW and dryer model #110WGD6200SW on October 5, 2006. I also purchased the Master Protection Agreement for 4 years, which will expire in July 2010. In January 2009, I noticed rust developing around the bleach dispenser. In February, the rust spot was getting worse. I was due for a yearly service in March, so I called for an appointment to get my appliances serviced. I mentioned to the man on the phone about the rust on my washer around the bleach dispenser. I was told that rust is not covered under the Master Protection Agreement and there is nothing Whirlpool can do about the rusting on my appliance. I told him I felt it was unfair that a washer only 3 years old rusting that bad and I was afraid that a hole will develop resulting from the rust. Again, he said there is nothing they can do.

I purchased a Whirlpool Calypso Washer and Dryer set for about $1900 in 2005. It’s an all digital panel. I've had nothing but problems since I purchased it and just recently I checked for repair and found out this machine from Whirlpool has a class action suit for selling defective washers. To repair this machine, it will cost me $798.00 plus $65.00 service fee. This is the highest I’ve had to pay. Every repair has been between $150 to $400.00. Whirlpool discontinued this machine. Why didn’t they just recall it? All they can offer me is $15% on a new one. That sucks.

I also have the front loading Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer. The wash has mold on the rubber seal and in the detergent tray. No amount of cleaning or chemicals will keep it away for good. The washer was $1,274. It's absolutely shameful.

I have a 3 years old Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer. The washer has a mold smell that gets into the whole laundry room. I've used different products to clean the machine, but it hasn't worked yet. It's getting worse nowadays. I contacted Whirlpool and they registered my claim, but I haven't got any additional follow-ups yet.

My husband and I called this appliance store for repairs on our Whirlpool dryer. We were told it could not be fixed and it was recommended to buy a new one. We bought a new Whirlpool dryer from Stoltzfus Appliance. Within a month, the tumbler inside the dryer started to turn a bright blue and several pieces of clothing were ruined. We complained. The first time a repairman came out to look at it, he said that he'd never seen that before. When he came back, he said it happened all of the time and that I should have known to wash my husbands new Levi's several times before putting them in the dryer. I wanted a new dryer.

I bought a Whirlpool Duet washer in January, 2006. No problems until about March, 2008 when the washer wouldn't drain. After replacing hoses and valves ourselves, the washer still didn't work. I called Whirlpool customer service and their only troubleshooting steps have to deal with the hoses. Since we knew that wasn't the problem, they scheduled a tech to come. The service technician came and took about 3 minutes to remove three screws from the front, open a panel, twist off the top to the trap and remove three baby socks. I have no idea why Whirlpool customer service wouldn't mention this simple solution to me over the phone. $150 for the service and a few more hundred for the unneeded parts we replaced ourselves. Thanks Whirlpool.

Whirlpool appliances, need I say more? I have a front load washer and dryer that quit working within 3 yrs. I had to replace the pump within the first 6 months and then again within a year, and so on. Then the front gasket decided to tear apart causing it to have to be replaced. Next thing I knew, it dumped water out everywhere. The dryer went shortly after that, it just decided not to dry and the digital buttons went crazy. I have a dishwasher Quiet Partner I that has stopped working, it no longer washes dishes, it lasted 2 years barely. I have had to rewash dishes many times within these 2 years. Our refrigerator is also Whirlpool and the icemaker has been replaced twice. Now I just buy ice. The gas hot water heater lasted about 3 years with repairs. Not something I wanted to worry about, so I replaced it. I am getting a junkyard full of appliances; I did not know they were disposable. I am tired of worrying about washing dishes and clothes. I had an older stove that went out too, but it was here.

I bought a new Whirlpool washer (model #GSX9750PWO, serial number CR4710919) in Feb. 2005. I am a single man and was deployed for 15 months during that timeframe so the washer received less than normal family use. On or about 30 March '09, the washer quit working and started making a grinding noise. I called the local service tech who is certified by Whirlpool. He determined the transmission was bad. I had a warranty that covered the replacement transmission. The repair tech came back one week later with the new part. As I watched him tear down the washer, he said "Geez, look at this." Three mounting bolts are required to hold the transmission in place but only two had been installed from the factory. Both bolts had been sheared off creating irreparable damage to the base element. He told me I needed a new base.

I purchased a Whirlpool washer in August 2006. After a few months, I noticed that water had leaked onto the floor. There were 2 times during the Whirlpool warranty that I called a serviceman, and he could not find a defect or problem. This did not happen all the time, so I was confused. After the first year, this happened a couple more times. Just about 2 months ago, I noticed more water than usual had leaked. Now the washer is under an extended warranty, and I once again called for service. This time, the technician knew immediately what was wrong. Like so many other consumer reports I have read, the water spills over and leaks out the bottom of the washer. It cannot be repaired and the extended warranty company will not do anything. Whirlpool also will not respond. This goes back to Whirlpool since it was defective from day one. I am thoroughly disgusted with this company.

I purchased a new Whirlpool washing machine in May last year. In January, it stopped working. It was found to have a burnt out motor. The nearest approved repairer is located 170 kilometers from me. I delivered the washer to them. Whirlpool took a month to supply a new motor. I then drove down and picked up the machine. On the 4th wash when I brought it home, the motor burnt out again. I contacted Whirlpool again because this is too expensive of using laundromats, driving hundreds of kilometers to get repairs, etc. I was told someone will get back to me. That was three months ago. I have rung no less than ten times, and not one return call. I sent a letter of demand, but no reply. I have now filled out a complaint at the Office of Fair Trading, but would like to escalate this a lot further. Anyone else out there who would like to become involved fighting this arrogant mob of ripoff merchants, get in touch.

We purchased a Duet washer machine - we haven't been happy with it since the purchase. The clothes were smelling dirty. We had a tech out and he told us if our drain tub had been filling up with water too high, the washer would suck in the soiled water and wash the clothes with the dirty water. Also, the clothes smell like mold. He said, "You have to leave the door of the washer wide open to dry the washer out." The washer wears the clothes out - draining the color out and making clothing look worn. I checked on the consumer complaint website. There are lots of class action suits but none for the particular model #WFW9200SQ00 that I could see.

We own the Cabrio Washing Machine and have had all the problems noted previously with error codes and leaking. The problem that concerns me the most though is the rotten egg/mildew smell every time we use the machine. I went through the normal procedures and contacted Whirlpool to obtain their advice on what could be causing the problem and how could it be fixed. I understand people make mistakes, and I don't expect all products to be perfect; although, I don't expect any company to lie to their customers to mask an obvious problem with the top loader Cabrio Washer. I was told by Whirlpool that the smell was probably the water heater and the zinc anode reacting to the water source. I was also told to use bleach in the washer with hot water and this would remove the smell.

In Sept. 07, I bought a Whirlpool Duet washer. It lasted approximately 14 months. The warranty was good for 12 months. This machine was a top line $850 machine. I called the corporate office to see if they would do anything to make this right. They offered to pay for the parts; I agreed. This was 6 months ago. Every time I try to find out where the parts are, they tell me they are back ordered, and then offer a 15% discount to buy a new machine. I laughed because even with a 15% discount on an $850 machine that lasts 14 months is a waste of money. With all these American companies in the toilet, you would think they would want to keep loyal customers happy? What do I know?

I also purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer on 3/4/8 and like everyone else I regret that day. Mine too has been a piece of junk since day one. I have had seven service calls (three different companies) and to no avail have had any satisfaction. My machine stays off balance and shuts down. I have actually sprained my thumb and strained my back from having to lift the wet clothes up and reorganize them in order to start the machine again. This can easily happen between two and five times during a cycle. The computer board has been replaced (recall) and they have replaced my impeller and it still doesn't operate properly. I have never been more frustrated with a product and absolutely dread having to wash a load of clothes.

I purchased the Estate Washer in July 2008 and since that time I've had seven service calls on the machine. The wash machine is leaking on the small cycle load and splashes water over the side of the tub onto the floor. The service calls and the repairs have cost more than the wash machine itself.

In 2006, we purchased a brand new home that came with Whirlpool appliances. Trail Appliances was the supplier. We wanted to upgrade our washer & dryer to the more expensive and (dependable) front load systems. The supplier suggested we purchase the Higher Grade Kitchen Aid models as they were the better appliances and that Whirlpool was upgrading everything to the Kitchen Aid brand. Two years and seven months later, suddenly the washer quits. I waited three hours for a Whirlpool Technician call back.

My top-of-the-line (2 year old) washer has rust so bad on the outside and inside that it is becoming unusable. The rust on the outside has deteriorated the surface so that it is jagged and subject to cutting a hand. The rust on the inside is so bad that flakes fall into the basket each time the lid is closed. Both Whirlpool and the extended warranty person says that rust is not covered.

We purchased a Whirlpool washing machine for one of our tenants. The machine has never worked properly. It has had at least 5 service calls. Whirlpool customer service has been extremely rude and unhelpful. I was, of course, first on hold but then they also put me back on hold after I asked to speak to someone else about the plan of action. They refused to replace the machine but, more importantly, I was informed there was no one else I could speak to and that Whirlpool has no official complaints department.

We bought this set 5 years ago and have been dealing with mold and mildew and HORRIBLE smell ever since! We had Whirlpool come out and change the rubber ring and hose; both were filled with mold. They said they would do it once. We have done everything they asked, including cleaning once a month with a special cleaner. It is disgusting and I am sure a health hazard. We would love to get in on a class action lawsuit if anyone hears of one. We are so disappointed in this and would never buy a Whirlpool again!

I bought a Whirlpool Cabrio WTW6600SW2 top loading washer less than 2 years ago. Now I started getting an F50 error code which won't clear and the customer service department attributes to oversudsing or a possible communication problem. When we bought the machine, it was fairly new and there were no reviews on it, because, of course, all the machines were still under warranty. Now that the warranty has expired, of course, we're experiencing problems. Try typing Whirlpool Cabrio F50 in your search box and see what comes up. I'm not the only one completely disgusted with this overpriced piece of junk. Whirlpool should issue a recall and take care of this problem rather than attributing it to HE detergent.

Whirlpool Duet Front Loader Washer has mold and mildew issues. Whirlpool keeps sending repair people but the issue is the well-being of my children and myself when it comes to the mold and mildew. The smell is so bad that you can’t use the machine if you’re in the house. I see so many other complaints of the same issue. Why can’t something be done?

After just two years, my Whirlpool Cabrio washing machine has to be completely torn apart, and most of the interior replaced. The seals are leaking causing water to leak through to the bottom and onto the bearings. Whirlpool says they have no other complaints on this problem, and no recalls have been issued. They are however sorry that I am unhappy with their product. I either have to spend $448 (over half of what I paid for the machine) to fix it or buy a new one. I am unsure of amount of damage done to my floor because most of the water has sat directly under the machine and I can't move it anywhere to check it out. I have no other place to put it.

I purchased a Cabrio Washer in July of 2007. Within one month, the pump went out. I purchased it at ABC Warehouse in Traverse City, MI. I bought an extended warranty with it also. When I called, they came in a couple of days (Yeskes). They said it wasn't installed correctly and never checked the pump. I called ABC many times and told them that they were nuts because of the installation instructions. Our washer is in the basement and has to be pumped up and out. We more than met the height requirements.

I bought this piece of junk in 2007. Since then, this washer has destroyed more clothes than this washer is worth! It is supposed to be top of the line but it is the worst washer I have ever owned. I have bought washers from Deseret Industries for $40 that have worked better. This washer has ruined everything we own that has a strap, belt or tie on it. Almost every bra, robe, hoodie or nightgown gets pulled apart due to the poor design of the agitator.

We bought a new Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer around 3 years ago. We have been dealing with mold, mildew and nasty odors for a couple of years now. We bleach regularly and clean the door seal and detergent dispenser but still the mold comes back.

Extreme odor from the washing machine is causing a horrid smell and nose issue. I contacted Sears who advised it is a problem with all of them and to replace the rubber area as the odor is beneath the seal. It's expensive but that might cure it. Somebody needs to get these machines corrected fast.

Cabrio washing machine control/circuit board failed completely. Repair costs $516 on an $800 washing machine. Model No. WTW6600SW0 Serial No. CT3270734

I bought a Whirlpool Duet Washing Machine in 2005. It had a funny smell, I called and the company told me it happens, just to run a bleach cycle, but it never solved the problem. I also experienced the mold on the rubber door rims, but I just wiped it down once a week. Well this week, the machine started to be very loud and vibrating. We called a tech. They came and looked. It was the main bearing. The cost for call was $97.00. With the design of the Whirlpool means the whole tub and back need to be replaced. They quoted us at $1,016.00 CAD. We were shocked that a machine would break down only after 4 years. I was very disappointed in the product and will not buy another front loader for a very long time.

The Start button on my washer broke after a year and 1/2. Whirlpool doesn't make the replacement part so I must buy a bigger part and it will cost $175. The piece I need probably would cost $30. Since the washer is relatively new, the problem is in manufacturing so I've been told by repair men and parts replacement stores.

I bought a Whirlpool Cabrio in March of 2007. Within one month, the bleach dispenser went out. They fixed it. Soon after that, the machine quit working and after threatening to bring all of my laundry back to Conn's (I have 7 children!), they finally replaced it. The new one worked okay for a while but then I kept getting an F1 code and I had to keep pushing the Pause and Start button several times just to get it going. The tech ordered a new board for it and I was told that the part will be in on Jan. 6. When I called to find out where my part was, I kept being told that the part was not in yet. Finally, it came in on Jan. 21st, 10 days late! When I contacted Whirlpool, they offered me free repair service for 7 months. Wow! What a deal! I was so impressed by their offer...seeing as how I bought an extended warranty already! I told them that I wanted my money back and they so politely basically told me, "Too bad, so sad, we don't give refunds." Well, too bad, so sad... I want to join any class action lawsuit there is out there. So someone please contact me, and I will joyfully join you.

It has a mold smell and vibrates so badly my walls shake. The clothes wrinkle horribly. I've already had one repair because the washer wouldn't spin out the water after the wash cycle. I have a cheap washer and dryer at my second home that is wonderful. The sheets are never wrinkled with that GE set! Towels are frayed badly. Clothes always need to be pressed. (Yes, I take them out when slightly damp to prevent wrinkles.) The worst $1,900 I've spent.

I purchased a Duet front loading washer in September ’06 and paid $900 at Lowe's. I have had multiple repair calls. Mostly, it will not spin all the water out of the clothes, especially in the normal wash cycle and especially when it is a smaller load. It also spins so hard sometimes that the clothes are completely tangled and wrinkled so much, the dryer doesn't want to take the wrinkles out. It does not get clothes clean even on heavy duty. I am very unhappy with the quality of this washer for what I paid. I thought I was getting a quality product. I contacted Whirlpool several times and was basically told that I could be at fault or if something is going to fail, it would probably happen in 90 days. I am getting no satisfaction from them.

This is an update from the former. I bought a Whirlpool Cabrio on Jan. 23rd, 2008, which broke within a week of having it. Lowe's replaced it per their policy and replaced it with a new Whirlpool Cabrio serial # wtw6600sw2 model # cu4171592. Second washer broke on 1/10/09. I called Whirlpool per manufacturer's one year warranty. They scheduled A&E Factory Service to come out on 1/13/09. The tech replaced the subcontrol panel which did not fix the machine. He then ordered a stator. On 1/21/09, he replaced the stator but it did not fix the machine. I called other tech and decided it was the main electrical control panel. He left to find part, came back at noon and replaced the main electrical control panel. The machine turned on but will not agitate clothes, soap dispenses on rinse cycle, then spins leaving the clothes with soap when done. I called A&E to inform washer is still broken but they will not come back until 1/23/09. I cannot confirm how much longer washer will be broken if other part is needed. It will take another 7 days from the date ordered.

I originally called Maytag to complain about my Neptune TL. I was transferred to a complaint representative. She took down all my concerns and I talked to 3 or 4 people before ending up talking to Andy, ID **. I repeated my story to each representative. I was planning on purchasing a front loader but had read much about the mildew smell and knew I didn't want to deal with that. We decided on the TL and have the mildew smell anyway. I was told to run bleach or special tabs through the machine regularly to prevent this. I am a 30+year satisfied Maytag customer but the purchase of this product is definitely my last.

I am the disturbed owner of model# WTW6600SW2, serial# CU1370725, also known as the Whirlpool Cabrio. New a year ago dealing with ABC Warehouse getting the runaround. The unit has been giving me an F40 fault off and on since purchase. When this happens, I am in the middle of a load of laundry. The only correction I got was to unplug the unit for 3-5 minutes and start over. I have been using the laundromat for a couple of months now at $45 a week waiting patiently for someone to start a class action lawsuit against this terrible product.

On Jan. 18, 2009, we purchased a Whirlpool washer and dryer and a 5-year warranty (cash). On delivery, Jan. 19, 2009, the repairmen made me (by myself) move furniture to get it in. I had cleared a path in the back of the house, but they wanted to come in the front. We had removed the old dryer, leaving only the washer to be removed. They couldn't or wouldn't hook up the dryer vent, stating that it wouldn't hook up to my old hose. I want a refund! Washer rinsed 3 times and only spun out part of the water. The dryer, I attempted to get it to dry 3 bath towels and a couple of face cloths. After five cycles of running the dryer, they were sort of dry and not having the water spin out in the first place. I do not want these machines! They are pieces of junk! I want my money back. I have an incontinent daughter living with me, and I have had to walk the soiled clothes back and forth to the neighbors.

I bought a Whirlpool Cabrio washer/dryer set from Lowe's in late Jan. of 2007. Within days, I had to have the washer replaced for it leaking water from the bottom. They replaced the washer with a new one, Lowe's policy. Now, not even a year old, the second one is not working. It gives 2 fail errors F50 and F51 which no one bothers to tell me what they mean. As soon as the A&E Factory tech arrived, he looked over all of my washing supplies telling me that the HE Detergent I'm using might be the problem.
