Washer Highlights
EcoBoost Option This option allows for good energy efficiency without reducing cleaning performance. Water temperature is lowered while the tumble action is increased, thus lessening energy consumption of two counts, without reducing cleaning performance.
Eco Monitor This eco-friendly monitor gives you a visual overview of the energy savings and eco-performance that is being made on the various wash options.
Deep-Wash Clean system An anti-escape value ensures the maximum concentration of detergent is released, while the care control management system ensure that the water is sufficiently warm to ensure that the detergent enzymes achieve optimum cleaning performance.
NSF(R) Certified Sanitary Cycles This certified allergen and sanitary cycle removes up to 99.9% of certain household micro-organisms, including Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Klebsiella pneumoniae and Staphylococcus aureus, without having to resort to bleaches
3.5 cu. ft. Stainless Steel Wash Basket The large stainless steel wash basket can take up to 16 pairs of jeans in a single load, giving ample washing space to those very large and difficult items.
Precision Dispense Concentrated bursts of detergent from the precision dispenser, with its removable laundry reservoir, ensures that clothes are thoroughly washed and can be pre-filled with up to 12 washing loads at a time. Fabric softener and bleach is released at the correct stage during the washing cycle.
Exterior Features A clear to read Led display enables easy and quick selection with the wash cycle statue and time remaining read-out.. An Add-A Garment indicator light show you when you have an opportunity to add forgotten items after the wash cycle has started.
Other Features include: Tumble-Fresh option; Quiet-Wash and Quiet-Spin noise reduction systems, odor and rust resistant Stainless-steel wash basket. 1,200 RPM maximum speed spin
Price History »
How does this washer stand out? »
It is really the price rather than features which make this washer more appetizing. It comes with a smaller drum, no steam wash and only 2 out of the 6 identified premium features, however it is brought for under a thousand dollars. If you want a larger drum you’ll have to pay $150 - $700 dollars more, and go for Whirlpool’s more premium front loaders. Unlike the WFW96HEAU, this washer won’t dry your clothes, but it will automatically tumble and thus keep them fresh for a few hours after the load is finished washing.
