Product review (5 stars): Wonderful pair..don't listen to the negative reviews
I bought this pair when my 13 year washer died and decided to replace both.  I was nervous when I saw some of the negative reviews but I really wanted sanitizing function and steam anEwingew Whirlpool was the way to go.  Well I had to wait two weeks for a number reasons, so my wash was backed up.  I have been able to try every function available on both machines.  water levels are not an issue, it simply functions differently. I have found my wash is cleaner, and with 10 animals in the house, four long haired pets, I am shocked at how there is no hair on the clothes and the minimal amount of lint in the dryer...clearly the washer does the bulk of the work.  I also had a pet get sick in the spare bedroom, resulting in a need to wash two quilts, blanket, sheets and mattress cover.  I threw them all in the sanitize setting and everything came out beautifully.  the washer is quiet and powerful.  the dryer too.

I would highly recommended this set to anyone without hesitation!

It has been a few weeks now and these machines are just awesome. so happy!
