Product review (1 stars): DO NOT BUY THIS MACHINE !!!!!!!!
We purchased this machine to replace a 20 year old Maytag along with the matching dryer. About a month after the 1 year warranty was up it started sounding like a freight train was running through the house. I called the company after reading about similar problems from other buyers and they denied anything was wrong with the design but informed me they could replace the drum for $400 or so dollars. I declined and just decided to live with it. In the meantime the latch on the dryer door broke off. The washer lasted 3 years before cracking the pump from the vibration from bad bearings and the dryer door latch has broken again. I will never buy from whirlpool again. Bad products and no accountability for a really bad machine.
