Product review (1 stars): Do not purchase
Purchased our 2nd  whirlpool duet front loader in September 2013. The first one lasted 8 years.  This one lasted 1 year and 10 months.  Repairman came out and thought it was the door latch.  Replaced that and that did not do it.  He called whirlpool and they suggested replacing one of the control boards.  That didn't do it.  Repairman suggested buying a middle of the line, old fashioned top loader.  Probably should have listened as we are now waiting for the second control board to arrive and hoping replacing that will do it.  If that does not do it we will have approximately $1300 in a less than 2 year old washer that does not work.  Only positive here is it did a good job with little water, less detergent and getting clothes clean when it did work.  Probably last whirlpool washer I will ever purchase.
