Q: Where is this washer made?

A: Hey QuickHitmanX7. All of our Washers are manufacutered in the U.S. We hope this helps!

Q: I want to replace my existing whirlpool washer with this one. How do I know it will fit under my whirlpool dryer?

A: Hi kp, the best thing to do is to measure the sides... and check the web with the info of the new one.... or ask customer service if they can compare your model with the new one... It has to be a stackable model..

Q: Washing bath mats is there a extra spin to get all the water out

A: There is an extra spin cycle, drain and spin. Or when you start the cycle you can do extra time or more time on spin.

Q: Does the dryer have a drum light inside?

A: No, there is no drum light inside.

Q: How do I clean the Whirlpool front load washer? The light "clean washer" is on, and it "rings" every few minutes. I don't know what to press, or what to do. Can you please help me? Thank you in advanced.

A: Hello. Please visit https://tinyurl.com/2f7eyhfx and refer to page 5 for instructions on cleaning this model Washer. We hope this information is helpful.

Q: Can I stack an older whirlpool dryer WED75HEFW1. Thanks

A: Best Buy will be able to determine whether your older model will work on a new one. You need to submit both old and new models. I just had to do that having purchased a new whirlpool washer with an older dryer on top.

Q: how much space between wall and washer is required for hook up

A: Hello, charlie. In a recessed area or closet installation when a Washer and Dryer are stacked together, a 5-inch space behind the units is required while 6 inches of space above the units is required. In a recessed area or closet installation with only the Washer, it is required to have 1 inch of space on all sides. In a customer cabinet installation, it is required to have at least 1 inch of space on all sides. We hope this helps.

Customers are saying

Customers admire the 4.5 Cu. Ft. High-Efficiency Stackable Front Load Washer with Steam and Tumble Fresh for its quiet operation, excellent cleaning performance, and ease of use. Many appreciate its large capacity and the value for the price. However, some users have noted that the spin cycle can be loud and inconsistent, and the start button may be unresponsive at times.

    Amazing!

    Super efficient and great looking washer. I have only had it a few weeks but have all the extended warranties so that I can keep these for as long as possible. Every load has come out clean and fresh! Everyone who has come over has commented on how great they look! I would highly recommend the set!!

    Nice

    I really do like my new washer, it is bigger than the one I bought back in 2009, and it seems quieter. It did start making a loud knocking sound on certain washes but I think that's just the amount of clothes inside and the spin cycle. I don't like that I can't pause the wash to add garments, and it doesn't have a delay start that I did get used to.
