Drain Filter Hard to Reach
on December 11, 2022
Posted by: Afrodragon
from Cambridge
DO NOT BUY IF YOU CANT MOVE THE UNIT AFTER. The washer works fine enough. Removing the back panel to access the drain filter is a huge inconvenience as our units are stacked in a very tight space. This is a poor engineering design as cleaning the drain filter is essential to maintaining the life span of the washer unit. I looked through my owner's manual on how to clean my drain filter. The instruction does not match my unit or the 3 other similar units sold in Canada. I am very disappointed with Whirlpool in the year 2022 they could easily upload a new PDF explaining how to gain access to the drain filter.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

The absolute worst
on February 9, 2025
Posted by: Megs
This came with my apartment and it is the worst washing machine that I have ever used. It doesn’t fill up with nearly enough water to wash anything. The rinse cycles don’t effectively rinse anything. Whoever designed this has never had to do laundry their entire life. It’s clunky and the cycles are stupid.

Vibrates to much
on December 23, 2019

from Airdrie Alberta
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It seems to be a decent washer, but we find it vibrates to much. The warranty people think it's normal but we don't.

Tempermental touch pad
on August 14, 2022
Posted by: No nickname
from Mount Vernon, WA
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The washer and dryer were provided by the builder when we moved into our new house in May. I find the touch pad to be a bit tricky to use; apparently there are times when the machine disagrees with the choices I am making.

Not a reliable washing machine
on November 23, 2022
Posted by: AnnoyedCustomer
from Vancouver
This washer was installed in the brand new townhome I bought in 2020. This washer started to break down after just 6 months. We have had multiple call outs for this washer to be fixed and it seems to require repair every 6 months. Control panel replacement 3 times since 2020. Now it’s something else going wrong - the drum will no longer spin. I am tired of having these issues and I now find myself searching for a replacement and sending this one to landfill!!
I have never in over 20 years of owning a home had issues like this with a washer. It is totally unacceptable for a reputable brand like Whirlpool to sell such garbage! Not happy and won’t be replacing with another Whirlpool washer.

hate it.
on December 25, 2022
Posted by: WhoDesignedThis?
from Vancouver Island
this came with a prebuild condo. Given the option, i'd have shopped for my own. My washer is 3 years old now, it leaks out the side from somewhere and through the sealing gasket in the front door. Alarms are constantly going off. The bulky items settings doesn't always seem to limit the spin cycle and causes the machine to slam around. the front panel display is glitchy and exhibits weird behaviour when some other error comes on. Just a real annoying piece of junk.

Washing machine came with my new house. Control board died after just 3.5 years. Really unacceptable quality.

Faulty components, bad design, lack of failsafe
on December 2, 2024
Posted by: Cameron
from Colorado
Terrible design, lack of failsafe, and 2/2 have had faulty electronic components. We have had this exact model in the last two places we lived. In both places we were the first residents, so it was a brand new washer. Within 6 months, the machine lost all power during a wash cycle. Because of the poor design, the door stays locked and without power can not be unlocked. We tried every troubleshooting method we could find online, with no success. We have lost two full loads of clothes to mold while we waited for repairs, because the door could not be opened. The first time, maintenance ended up smashing the door off to get the clothes out because nothing else worked. Right now we have another load locked in the washer while we wait for our warranty request to be reviewed.
