Q: QuestionIs the pedestal necessary? Our current stackable sits on the garage floor. Also, any chance of getting the washer door to open the opposite way? It's a bit cramped opening from the right. Thanks.

Asked 6 years ago by Marlene.

• A:Answer I did not get a pedestal, and I don't miss it. However, my washer is inside a laundry room. My dryer door could be changed to open the opposite way, but my washer door could not.

Q: QuestionWhat is the height of the units stacked ?

Asked 3 years ago by Gus.

This question was asked about the related product: Whirlpool - 4.5 Cu. Ft. High Efficiency Stackable Front Load Washer with Steam and Load & Go XL Dispenser - Chrome Shadow

• A:Answer Each piece is 38 1/4 tall. So if you stack em, they'll end up being 6'-5 1/4" because the legs under the washer are extended one inch to be able to get a wrench under for adjustment. And could be as high as two more inches because of leg length. So, between six foot five and a quarter, ta six foot six and a quarter.

• A:Answer Hello lin1448, this model has the Load & Go dispenser and does not require that you only add what would be needed for that 1 cycle but allows you to fill it up 1 time to last for multiple loads. For more information on this we would recommend reviewing the website or use and care guide. We hope this helps.

Q: QuestionMay I add the detergent each time I wash clothes or do I have to use the "Go XL dispenser"?

Asked 4 years ago by Anonymous.

This question was asked about the related product: Whirlpool - 4.5 Cu. Ft. High Efficiency Stackable Front Load Washer with Steam and Load & Go XL Dispenser - Chrome Shadow

• A:Answer Hi! You can use the single load dispenser when you want to wash with a different detergent than the one currently in the Load & Go™ dispenser. Additional compartments for bleach and fabric softener make sure any additives get dispensed at just the right time during the cycle. You can find information on how to do that on page 7 of the Owner's Manual for this model, linked here: https://bit.ly/3fZ0KDs We hope this helps!
