    Great washer with great options! It has built in scrub brush and a button to rinse an item before placing it in the washer. This washer is better than a front loader.

      We appreciate you bringing your experience to our attention. We understand that encountering a negative experience with your washer is frustrating. Please review the following professional troubleshooting guidance for optimal cleaning performance.

      If you feel the clothes are not cleaning effectively, please ensure the following critical factors are correct:
      Water Temperature
      Type and Amount of Detergent
      Use of Additives
      Cycle Selection
      Loading and Sorting of the Clothes
      Routine Cleaning of the Washer
      Initial Setup and Installation

      Was the washer recently installed?

      Before washing your first load, it is recommended to run an empty cycle using HE detergent and the ""Quick Wash"" setting to clean the drum and prepare the dispenser.

      Was the correct wash temperature selected, and were the hoses connected correctly?
      Water Temperature: Use hot or warm washes for fabrics that can safely handle them, following garment care labels. The Casual or Delicate cycle can increase the water level, which helps reduce the chance of dye transfer. Note that even cold wash settings may use some warm water to maintain a minimum temperature.
      Hose Connection: Verify that the hot water inlet hose is connected to the household hot water supply and the cold water hose is connected to the cold water supply. Reversed hoses can lead to warm rinsing water, which may set wrinkles. Refer to your Installation Instructions for details.
      Water Supply: Ensure both hot and cold household water faucets are completely turned on for proper fill.
      Cycle and Settings Selection

      Cycle selection is essential, as each is an optimized combination of agitation/tumbling speed, spin speed, and water temperature, tailored to fabric type and soil level.
      TEMPERATURE: Select a wash temperature based on fabric and soil level, using the warmest setting safe for your fabric.
      SOIL LEVEL (Wash Time): Select a setting (Light, Extra Heavy, or Extra Power) that matches your load's soil level. Lighter settings can help reduce tangling and wrinkling.
      SPIN SPEED: The washer automatically selects a spin speed based on the cycle. Faster spin speeds shorten dry times but may increase wrinkling. Not all speeds are available on all cycles. https://youtu.be/cvDY5e-HL8M
      Detergent and Additives

      Are you using HE or High-Efficiency Detergent?
      Use only HE detergent and always measure the correct amount. Excess suds from non-HE detergent or over-dosing HE detergent can cause poor cleaning performance, reduced spin speed, and error codes.
      Follow the detergent manufacturer's dosage amount based on concentration (e.g., 2x, 4x, 8x), soil level, and load size. Larger detergent pacs should only be used for large or heavily soiled loads.
      Whirlpool recommends using Swash® laundry detergent. (https://www.whirlpool.com/accessories/laundry-accessories/swash.html) https://youtu.be/MiKxZ5WIJ0E
      Were Laundry Additives used?
      Fabric Softener: Measure the softener and dilute it before adding it to the rinse portion of a cycle only. Adding it to the wash water or using too much, especially on smaller loads, can cause staining or discoloration.
      Liquid Chlorine Bleach: Follow manufacturer directions. Undiluted bleach will damage fabric. Always measure; do not exceed the recommended amount for a full load.
      Loading and Sorting

      Were the clothes properly loaded?

      For proper cleaning, items must move freely. Reduce load size if necessary. Load items in loose heaps evenly around the washplate.
      Sorting: Separate dark items from lights and whites to prevent dye transfer, which can cause a dingy appearance. https://youtu.be/FE9JskuMrm0
      Routine Maintenance

      Have you run a Clean Washer Cycle?

      If you notice poor cleaning or lower water levels, run a Clean Washer cycle. This re-calibrates the control to factory-set water levels and should be run approximately once per month with affresh® Washer Cleaner (https://www.whirlpool.com/results.html?term=affresh) to prevent build-up. https://youtu.be/D13IsbMAMowFurther Assistance
