Whirlpool Impeller Washer gets the load done but i
on March 9, 2025
Posted by: amyg561_4669
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, this Whirlpool Impeller washer works pretty well with a good load capacity, but is loud and seems to use a lot of water, even with its sensor technology. There are plenty of options for your laundry needs and the unique glass lid allows you to actually see how well the washer is performing. The water flows into the unit like a waterfall, after the washer uses its sensors to determine the adequate amount of water necessary for the load. The washer is extremely loud during the washing cycle and while sensing and switching between cycles, while the spin cycle itself is ironically the quietest cycle (unlike what I'm used to). Even with the sensors, it seems like this unit wasn't as water efficient as I'd hoped, since it fills and drains a few times throughout the washing (but it might just seem that way). It was pretty stable and didn't wobble much during the spin cycle, even with a large bulky load of King size sheets with thick child-size blankets and towels. Overall, very nice washer and even better with the laundry room door shut to help muffle the noise.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The washer has been cleaning all of my stained clothes , I love the faucet feature The only thing I would have loved is a little bigger brum to hold a bigger load, The dryer is great & clothes dry perfectly and are not noisy at all pretty quiet.

Great washer. Very quiet!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great large capacity and very efficient. Multiple settings for quick wash, bulky items, and towels. Unit is extremely quiet. The “facet” feature is nice if you need to soak an item or pre-rinse a stain. With the first 15 or so washes. We are more than pleased with the performance. The quietness is my favorite.

Cleaning performance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] ’ve been loving the Whirlpool 4.6 Cu. Ft. Top Load Impeller Washer! It cleans thoroughly while using less water, thanks to the impeller system. The built-in faucet is super handy for prewashing stains, and the soft-close glass lid gives it a sleek touch. It’s durable, runs quietly, and handles large loads with ease. Definitely a solid choice if you want efficiency, performance, and convenience in one washer!

No fabric softener compartment

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So i don’t love it as much as i thought i would. It doesn’t really fill with enough water unless you put it in deep fill so i feel like the clothes don’t get saturated. Also i doesn’t have a fabric softener compartment so they recommend a downy ball …. But overall i still think it’s a decent washer it does hold alot of clothes

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The washer is large enough for a king size comforter with room for more! It's quiet which is awesome for small spaces/houses.
With all of the different options and pre soak option is allows for your cleanest garments ever.

Love, great interior space!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I appreciate the compact design of this washer and dryer, which fits seamlessly in my laundry room. It offers ample interior space to accommodate large bedding and bulk loads, a significant advantage for a family of four. The noise level is minimal and energy efficiency. Durability is high and cleaning performance is great!!
Absolutely love this washer.

From hesitation to astonishment in one wash.
on April 6, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I really wanted to give this a very thorough review. I can’t give this a five star review but I can do 92 out of 100. I mean, this is a washer that you’re going to be putting all of your clothes in and if you stop and think about it how much money do you spend on your clothing? Some of us have dress shirts, delicates formal attire, relaxing attire but if you put a dollar value on just what you’re throwing into the washer, I guarantee every load they’re doing is at least a couple hundred dollars. Some of the things that you throw in the washer depending on who you are might be over $1000 a load.
So for that reason, I can’t just give a quick review on this. The main reason I cannot give this a five star review is primarily because I don’t like how you add the detergent into the washer. I don’t always use HE detergent. Sometimes I still use the powder stuff because I feel like it cleans more thoroughly penetrates deeper into the clothing and I’m not paying for water like what you do when you buy HE detergent.

I don’t always use HE detergent. Sometimes I still use the powder stuff because I feel like it cleans more thoroughly penetrates deeper into the clothing and I’m not paying for water like what you do when you buy HE detergent.
If you are a person who likes to add the detergent first, and then let it soak and dissipate throughout the water evenly than this washer unfortunately does not allow you to do that from what I can see. It doesn’t allow you to add the detergent and then let the detergent dissipate into the water because what happens is when you turn it on Even if you add water yourself during the sensing cycle, it will detect that there’s water in there and it will drain your detergent water out of the washer so essentially you’re throwing away your detergent. I don’t like that.
What I will say is even though this does not have the traditional agitator in the top this washer does a phenomenal job about turning the clothes over in the washer a lot I sat there and watched the washer the one day for a solid 15 minutes and it continuously is moving All of the laundry and not just one small section. It is moving each piece individually of the next, the great thing about that is the more movement that each piece of laundry gets the more the dirt is being pulled out of the fabric because it is continuously being beaten with the water jets. Each jet seems as though it is deeply penetrating into the clothing and cleaning it extremely thoroughly.
So here are the pros and cons of this washing machine.
The pros of this washing machine is that it does a phenol phenomenon job of deeply cleaning each piece of laundry that you put into the washer. It is constantly moving each item around the basket efficiently and allowing the jets to cleanse the clothing. Another pro of this is it uses less water Than a traditional top load washer I know for sure that I’m using far less water on this compared to my other washer, I looked at my water consumption for last month versus the water consumption for this month and I noticed there was a sizable difference. I believe a traditional top loader uses roughly 45 gallons of water versus this is probably using less than half of that so it is hyper energy efficient. Another pro of this is the washer itself is relatively quiet at first if you put stuff in and it is imbalanced it will shake, but if it is completely balanced, you don’t even really notice that it’s on. It runs at a very low decibel level. I would also say for energy consumption that this is a very well-made product because the fact that it is spinning so much faster during the rinse and spin cycle my clothes are coming out far less wet than in a traditional top loader. I’ve also noticed that when I throw it into the dryer, I no longer have to dry it for more than 30 minutes all of my clothes regardless of the size of the load that I do wash are coming out of the dryer within 30 Minutes Consistently dry. So that is another energy, saving measure that whirlpool has implemented into this washing machine that is beneficial to the consumer.
I’d be willing to bet that because of its efficiency and drying the clothes just in the washer alone that it has saved me a several kilowatts on my electric bill so I’m saving money there also. Another benefit of this is the soaking cycle and all of the different options. Available to wash the clothes. I noticed that when I put it on the white cycle that my whites are actually indeed coming out wider, I’ve noticed on the color cycle that it is shooting the jets into the clothing Better and not making the clothing come out, lighter in the color shades meaning that my color seem to be sticking to the clothing better than they were in my previous machine so that means that the clothing is going to last me longer and look newer for a longer period of time.
Another pro of this is when you’re washing the clothing if you’re using the soap cycle and then you go in and you look at the water. It is very dirty far dirtier than any of my other washing machines I’ve had in the past which means that this washer is Deep cleaning your clothes extremely well because when you look at the water, it looks disgusting and then you can see that it drains it out and then adds fresh water, drains it out and then adds new fresh water, but still, even though it’s adding water and different cycles, you’re still using far less than a traditional top load washer.

The final pro is the fact that it has a stainless steel tub compared to plastic or even porcelain this will stand the test of time much longer and be more gentle on your expensive clothing as well as your delicates because if you have a plastic tub and you get a single scratch in there, all your clothes are gonna move along that jagged edge of the plastic and it will tear your expensive clothing during the wash cycle, but because this has a stainless steel tub this will continue to deep clean while simultaneously babying those items.
The only con of this washing machine I would say are if you need to use dry detergent, you’re gonna have to add only a little bit of water at first to get it to go underneath the agitator down into the bottom of the drum if you add too much it senses that there is Water in the tub and it drains it.
So in summation sorry about the long review I wanted to give a true insight from a consumer perspective at what would be perceived a more expensive purchase. I did not want to give a generic four star works great clean clothes boring simplistic review. I wanted to give a very detailed well composed review for those people who are actively seeking detailed information, which is hard to find. This washer would be perfect for a large household or even a small household. It would be great for a family because it’s going to save you money on water, money on electricity and most importantly time because in my house the longest part of doing the laundry is waiting for all the clothes to dry. However, with this, you’re not gonna have a problem because the washer is using less water and it’s spinning significantly faster so the clothes are coming out damp instead of wet, so that means that your dry time is almost the exact same time as the wash time which means you’re gonna get done with doing your laundry much faster. That in itself alone is absolute worth every penny.
Sorry again for the long review, but I really wanted to truly take my time and give as much detailed and useful information as I possibly could because this is not a normal every day item purchase and this is something that when you purchase it, you’re gonna be using it for many years to come and then when you couple the fact of how much you spend on your clothes and you’re trusting that machine to not only clean them but keep them safe. I think that giving a basic review of just saying cleans well great product I would recommend is doing this company a service. I appreciate being given the opportunity of reviewing these Items and I want to make sure that any consumer who is really looking for a real review and get detailed information is able to find this review to help guide them in the correct purchase. I would definitely recommend this without question or hesitation. Whirlpool has been and continues to be a great product and a leader in the industry and it shows very clearly in the washer and dryer that I received
