5 Star Review Love my Cabrio Washer and Dryer. Mine has full agitator! Don't go w/o it!

Strengths:

Cleans large loads easly. Two comforters in 1 wash! The softner container stays put. The water comes out in a way all the laundry gets wet from the begining.

Weaknesses:

Nothing w/the washer. Dryer... It would be nice if the lint screen was in the front at the door. It is on top. The dryer plastic front should always be checked for a crack at the top due to MF style.

Posted Apr 22, 2007 - I purchased a very nice front load washer and dryer from Lowe's. The latest in tech. I returned them after few weeks. Due to lack of someone to service the washer and dryer in my area. So I called my best friend who sold washer and dryers at Sears for years and she told me to buy the Cabrio with the agitator! That it is the same as the Oasis. Not to buy the one w/o the agitator. I have had to use other washer and dryers since and it makes me LOVE the Cabrio all the more. I do have extended warranties on both machines just in case. I had the dryer plastic replace due to it being shipped cracked at the top center, you have to be down on the floor to see it. That took just a few days and no hastes. I have had them for almost a year now. And I highly recommend them. I have a young boy who is all boy and stinky like one too. My other washer didn't get the smell out. I would have to wash his bedding and clothes twice. I also have a shedding cat and long haired dog. The machines get it all out w/the first wash. They wash and dry my comforters much faster & more efficiently than any other dryer. The clear top is fun for my son to watch the clothes getting washed.

1 Star Review Whirlpool Cabrio Class Action Law Suite

Strengths:

Looks good

Weaknesses:

Doesn't work

Posted Feb 17, 2008 - Whirlpool Cabrio Class Action Law Suite www.poolesville.biz/... I bought a Whirlpool Cabrio December 2006 from Lowe's. The machine worked for about 9 months and I haven't been able to use my washing machine since October 2007. Every part in the machine has basically been replaced at least once if not twice. Whirlpool has a problem ...and they refuse to fix the problem. They will send a factory repairman and he doesn't do anything. He claims that he fixed it by having the computer simulate an actual wash cycle. It is never fixed; when your warranty expires...that's it. The repairman told me there is nothing more that can be done and Whirlpool claims that it has been fixed. Basically.. Whirlpool never has to fix the problem. The warranty does not stop tickin just because the machine doesn't work. They send the repairman out and he orders a part and then you get another appointment and after they do this several more times your're stuck with a washing machine that still doesn't work without a warranty. Lowes is also worthless... they just spin you off. Update 02/18/2008 : I purchased a Lowes Extended Warranty several months back...The Lowes repairman informed me that he can't work on the washing machine under the Lowes Extended Warranty because this problem is the same problem that was never fixed under the Whirlpool 1 year warranty. He is also the same repairman that Whirlpool sent out. He condemned the machine then and Whirlpool says it was fixed. I don't know how they can continue to sell these machines? If this was just an isolated lemon I'm sure they would just replace it...But I'm beginning to suspect they are facing a massive recall and/or a class action law suite. The Whirlpool Customer Service is a nightmare...they threaten my wife; saying ,next time it might cost her $500 when they find something that's not under warranty. I suppose that would be classified as rust or something? I wonder if they forgot to paint some part of the machine?

1 Star Review whirlpool cabrio

Strengths:

technology

Weaknesses:

everything else

Posted Feb 12, 2008 - Just bought the w/d set 3 days ago. Washer takes forever and packs clothes so tight they can't dry even if the dryer worked. Dryer hasn't worked correctly since delivery. Have seen an "AF" signal. Clothes don't dry. takes two cycles on "heavy" to dry a small load of children's clothes. Have changed the vent hose, etc. Nothing. Called WP and they "haven't heard of 'AF'". Sending them back tomorrow

2 Star Review Cabrio WTW6600SW1 Junk!

Strengths:

Big loads!

Weaknesses:

Cleans poorly! Ours broke down in 6 months!

Posted Aug 27, 2007 - Faulty lock/lid mechanism design. Lock switch doesn't function correctly because the lock lever can travel too far, so the switch opens when it should be closed. Magnetic reed relay switch also functions like crap. No apparent lid adjustment to bring magnet/lid closer to switch assembly. Bad design. I duct taped an extra magnet on the lid to get switch to activate. Sad!!! Being an engineer I tried to adjust the lid to move it closer to the switch and shattered the glass. Replacement glass is $300. What a joke. If your wife says whe wants this machine I suggest divorcing her! Thing cleans like crap too!

1 Star Review HORRIBLE MACHINE...TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE - WASTE OF $$

Strengths:

LOOKS

Weaknesses:

LEAKS, EXTREMELY LOUD, UNBALANCES EASILY

Posted 2 days ago - I bought the Cabrio in Sept 2007 for $870. starting getting noisy about 1 yr after purchase, 2 yrs after purchase it started leaking all over during the spin cycle & it was so noisy ~ I wasn't able to have a conversation anywhere near the laundry room even with the door shut. Took machine to business in which I purchased it at to have it looked at. They ordered 3 parts for the machine & said it would cost over $500..thankfully I bought the extended warranty, but they wouldn't guarantee that that would fix the noise problem. One of the parts, which is the outer tub, has been on backorder for over a week & once they get them in, it will take another 7 days to get it delivered to the store(apparently they refuse to use overnight or even 2 day delivery service). And then of course the time to get it actually fixed. I will be without a washing machine for about a month by the time I get it back. I've called Whirlpool who doesn't seem to care, and they passed me on to the warranty dept, who then told me that they don't handle the extended warranty part(the one gal ask..how many times have you had your washer serviced? I told her this is the first time...and she was like oh, no big deal then - but for me its one to many times for a 2 yr old $870 washer!!! then she told me to contact the ext. warranty dept, in which they proceeded to tell me that there was nothing they could do but have it fixed...and wouldn't approve for a new washer until the service dept had given it a "unrepairable" marking. The business in which I purchased this from tried to do everything they could to have my washer replaced but Whirlpool wouldn't budge. I have contacted an attorney as with this many issues with so many machines, something needs to be done. These machines should not be on the market...they are junk, don't waste your money!!

1 Star Review Manufacturer will not stand behind their product

Strengths:

LARGE CAPACITY

Weaknesses:

FALLS APART

Posted 1 month ago - "I purchased my Cabrio washer 1/4/2007 about a month ago I started getting an F-1 error when I start my washer, in researching the internet it appears that the F-1 error code is common on this washing machine, and also found that this was a recall item with these washing machines. When I called the customer support department at Whirlpool regarding the problem, the person who was helping me was extremely rude she advised that yes this is a problem with the washing machines but mine was not part of the recall. When I asked why, she could not give me an answer other then the serial/model number on my washing machine was not listed on the recall. Even though the recall was for the same exact problem I was having. I am extremely unhappy with my washer, whirlpool and the customer service department. I would NOT purchase this washer as it is probably break down in 3 years or less and the manufacturer will not stand behind their product"

2 Star Review Read reviews from owners past the 12 month mark

Strengths:

large loads

Weaknesses:

breaks down between 12 - 24 months old

Posted 3 months ago - Bought this washer from Sears, but posting reviews wherever I can so others don't experience the mess! I did buy the extended warranty which appears to be saving me between $400 - 800 dollars! If you buy this washer, please spring for the extended warranty past 3 years. Some of the dislikes are similar to others on here: the wrinkles from ANY spin cycle are deep which means they do not come out in the dryer, even after shaking out each article prior to tossing in the dryer. Some items are torn up (loose threads on anything will mostly likely result in a ruined article, including towels). The worst part is that I have, what I now know is common, an F 50 error code followed by an Sd error code! Been trying for 45 min to get the same 8 min left on the cycle to just drain! The repair guy is coming on Saturday but I dont see a one visit repair in my future! Just be aware that these problems (based on today's research) seem to be frequent occurences for the washer at 12 - 24 months old.

1 Star Review So Disappointed!!

Strengths:

Size and ease of use

Weaknesses:

Durability

Posted 4 months ago - I am so disappointed in this product!! We had a fire in our house 2 1/2 years ago and lost our previous machine, which was 7 years old and working great. We received insurance $$ to purchase new appliances and were excited to choose a new W/D set and looked at many different options. I now wish we would have bought the LG set at Best Buy. Unfortunately, we spent almost $800 on this piece of crap at Sears. It now is displaying the dreaded F50 error code and when I called to check on repairs, I was informed that it would cost at least $450 to repair!! That is totally unacceptable! Whirlpool needs to wake up and realize that they are selling people junk and take this thing off the market!!

1 Star Review Junk!! DO NOT BUY!!!

Strengths:

Washer is quiet

Weaknesses:

Does not clean well, Puts clothes in tangled mess, Tears up bras, constant uneven load problems

Posted 4 months ago - Bought this washer/dryer set a couple years ago thinking we would get the front load results from a top loader. This machine tangles clothes in the worst kind of way. Everything ends up in a wad, so the clothes inside the wad do NOT get clean. You can also see the dirt on top of the item that 'swallowed' the rest of the items. My daughter and I are continually buying new bras because even on the gentle cycle, it seems to bend underwires to the point of no return. This is a mess of a washing machine. The dryer is also horrible. It wads up clothes so bad, you have to iron things that you shouldn't have to. The dryer is also VERY noisy. Even with our laundry room door shut, it is still loud and annoying. I do NOT recommend this washer and dryer to anyone. You will regret it. Wish I had the money to buy another. I would love to replace it!

1 Star Review Do Not Buy, Poor Design

Strengths:

Makes your laundry room look like a UFO Hangar

Weaknesses:

Coins destroy the washer

Posted 4 months ago - Owned for less than a year. One day washer dumps entire load of water on our second floor laundry room floor. Repairmen comes out, dumps about $5 in coins out from the water pump removed from the bottom of the unit. $300 repair. Apparently the Cabrio designers have never actually used a washer in real life, where coins occassionally get left in pockets. So the Cabrio sucks up coins out of the wash bin, they lodge in the water pump, and eventually they break a hole in the $300 pump and soak your home. Owned washers for 20 years and never had to think about coins. With the Cabrio, I now get to spend my time carefully going through every pocket in the wash so the shiny $900 devil doesn't destroy my home and cost me another $300 washer repair. Great job Whirlpool, thanks for making laundry stressful.

2 Star Review I HATE MY WHIRLPOOL CABRIO

Strengths:

It does use less water, spins out more water so drying time is less

Weaknesses:

Gets unbalanced easily, clothes end up tied almost in knots by the end of the cycle

Posted 5 months ago - I bought a Cabrio 2 years ago and every time I use it I wish I had bought a different washing machine. It does small loads just fine. When you put a lot of clothes in it of different weights and sizes they end up tangled into a nightmare. I also do not find that when I wash a lot of clothes that they come clean, my old style washer did large loads well. I hate washing sheets in it as they end up in a ball on one side of the machine then it gets unbalanced. I paid a huge price for this machine and hate it. One in every 3 loads I wash gets unbalanced even if I load it well and pay attention to how I load it. Yes it holds a lot but does not wash a lot at one time well. If I load small wash loads it does fine. The Cabrio also does not wash bulky items well. Yes they fit, but do not come out clean due to the fact that there is not an agitator.
