Q: Questiontell me the difference between whirlpool gc900qppb, gx900qppb and tu800sppb. don't just show me the product information page. it doesn't not answer my

Asked 14 years ago by Anonymous.

• A:Answer Dear Customer, The GC900QPP trash compactor is a convertible, freestanding model with castors that can be moved from room to room. Model GX900QPP will have the same features as the GC900QPP model only this is an undercounter model that has to be built-in in a cabinet setting. Models GX900QPP and GC900QPP are the most featured compactors Whirlpool offers. Model TU800SPP is an undercounter model that will not have some of the features that the GC900QPP model has. Model TU800SPP features knob controls whereas model GC900QPP has touch pad controls. Model TU800SPP does not have the hidden removable key control knob that the GC900QPP has nor does it feature the tilt-away trash basket. Thank you for your interest in the Whirlpool trash compactors.
