Product review (1 stars): A nightmare
I bought this poor excuse for a "washing machine" in December 2012, that's right, 9 months ago. One of the happiest days of my life was yesterday when another washer was delivered to my home and the delivery men had to bust apart this whirlpool washer to haul it out.  I wish I could have taken a sledgehammer to it myself. That being said, this washer did not clean clothes, in fact they came out dirtier than when they were put in. The dark clothes had residue stains that wouldn't come out even when you re-rinsed. The loads took close to an 1- 1/12 hours, no matter if it was a small or large load. The basin never filled with water. I had to take lobster pots filled with water to supplement what little water was dispensed. The spin cycles, even the lowest, left the clothes wrinkled. I can't say enough to warn you about this washer. Stores, including PC Richards claim they know about the defects in this washer yet STILL SELL THEM. It is obvious that Whirlpool knows about these poor reviews and does nothing. They should be ashamed and I will NEVER buy a whirlpool product again. I suggest all who read this do the same.
