[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's a washing machine. Why does it have (does it require?) internet connectivity? That has not been adequately explained to me. I am old, and my life is not so overfull that I would ever need to start a load of wash remotely. The worst feature is the way overpriced pedestal, which is a cheap, plastic piece of junk.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had my washer for only a week but so far I’m disappointed. The manual is pretty useless. The time the wash will take is very variable. The cycle indicates a 30 minute wash, but then finishes in 15 minutes and is too wet to move to dryer. A 50 minute wash may take over an hour. I don’t understand what is meant by Reset when the washer is turned on or what Sensing is supposed to do at the start of the cycle. No idea what Fresh Flow is supposed to mean. Very poor documentation.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Still not working! Changed the first one. Whirlpool isn’t coming out until 4/29! Have no washer all this time. Not happy.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like the front load and that it has the Freshflow Vent System so we don't need to leave the door open when not in use under normal circumstances. We opted for a pedestal for the washer, and it gives us needed storage space. It does add a bit more wobble when the washer is in spin cycle, but not much more than our old unit. Gets the clothes clean in a reasonable time as well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So far so good! We love it. To begin with, it is very attractive and surprisingly quiet! It required a little learning curve because there was no operating manual to read but we managed to learn the controls!
