I have the 3.5 top load Whirlpool. The way I understand it is because its high efficiency and when you put the clothes in the basket it senses the weight of the clothes and puts the amount of water it needs. To have more water I found if I use the different levels for the type of clothes I use you get different amounts of water. Like dark clothes with blue jeans I use the heavy load and have no problem. If you don't want that you can switch to deep water wash and it should always fill to maximum water. I saw many complaints but I read my instruction book and it helped with my questions I needed. Hope this helps you out.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hi Lisa,the Department of Energy standards state how much water any water-based appliances can use and our washers meet all of their stringent guidelines. We would recommend balling up the clothing similar to the size of a soccer ball, and place around the agitator one at a time. Stack it up around the sides so that the agitator plate is visible with all of the clothing around it. Do not fill up past the 2nd to last row of holes inside the washer to help avoid overloading. The bulky cycle will allow more water to enter the tub, but will not spin on the highest spin setting. Hopefully this information is beneficial to you. Thank you for your inquiry regarding our Whirlpool appliances!
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.When you encounter this problem--as I have--run the clean washer cycle uninterrupted. This cycle resets the water level calibration. I do have videos on my YouTube channel that show what the wash load and water level should look like when calibrated properly. And DO NOT run the casual cycle. I've encountered a glitch with this cycle, resulting in the water level being too low for EVERY auto sensed load, regardless of cycle, that is run after using the casual cycle.
