Cleans Great, IF You Can Stand The Floor Show

Started Sep 25, 2006

Strengths: Low water use, cleans well, most of cycle is quiet.

Weaknesses: Spin cycles are a nightmare of noise and movement.

Don't be too impressed by Whirlpool's claim that this unit was an improved suspension system that keeps it quiet and reduces vibration. When it starts to spin, it turns from a placid, energy-saving washer, into a monster. It shakes and vibrates, as does the floor and anything nearby. It might be okay on a concrete basement floor, but if you have a first-floor laundry, even one with a well-supported floor as we do, it's another matter. Don't expect help from your retailer or Whirlpool; they'll just tell you that "well, front load machines tend to do that".

the Whirlpool website says this means it was not properly installed. Beware sellers who do not guarantee their work.

The unit was the subject of three visits from one factory-authorized repair firm. They gave up. Whirlpool then sent a second company; they gave up. So, no this was not a case of improper installation.

Yes it was resolved. I burned a CD of the washer literally marching across the floor, and sent it to the CEO of the company. I promised that a copy would be sent to a local TV station for their consumer feature. Whirlpool took it away and gave me a check for the purchase price.
