Whirlpool WFW9450WR Front Load Washer 4.4 cu ft

The Whirlpool WFW9450WR is a front-load washer that is highly rated by many appliance retailers and consumers. It?s no surprise that this washing machine has many glowing reviews, for it boasts many features that let you wash more clothes more efficiently.

Key features

- Its capacity of 4.4 cubic feet allows you to wash larger loads, saving time and energy.
- This washing machine is ENERGY STARŪ & CEE Tier III qualified.
- The Add-A-Garment feature allows you to add clothes to the washer even after you?ve started a washing cycle.
- The Duet-HT Fabric Care system ensures that garments are cleaned without wear, tear, and damage.
- The machine?s 6th sense technology measures the size of each load and sets the corresponding amount of water needed for optimum cleaning.
- Care Control temperature sensors monitor the water?s temperature, adjusting it as needed. This ensures that the water is warm enough to give you clean laundry, while preventing it from reaching temperatures that may damage your clothing.
- The washer has 12 automatic cycles that can accommodate all your laundry needs. Clothes that require heavy duty cleaning, delicates, normal loads, and quick wash are just some of the options offered by this machine.
- Clothes are kept clean smelling and bacteria free thanks to the Tumble Fresh option, which tumbles the clothes after each completed cycle.
- Dispensers for detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners make sure that all of these are added at the right time during your laundry cycle.
- A twelve-hour delay feature allows you to input your settings and start your laundry cycle at a preset time.
- This washer comes with a one-year warranty.

Advantages

When it comes to efficiency and cleanliness, the WFW9450WR is a clear winner. The Energy Star qualification means that this machine meets the standards of the US government with regard to energy efficiency and conservation.

This also means that you save energy costs as well as helping the environment. The above-mentioned features make sure that your laundry is clean and fresh smelling, while taking care of your clothes. Its large capacity and other time-saving features also allow you to do your laundry with minimum time and effort.

Disadvantages

However, efficiency, speed, and cleanliness come at a price. With a retail price ranging from US$800-1200, this Whirlpool model may be out of the price range of some households.

For those who have minimum laundry requirements, this may not be the washing machine for you.

disappointed
by: Anonymous

I purchased this washer in October last year(2009). The towels come out smelling musty. With the low water level some of the clothes I have to redo the washing. If there is alot of grime on the clothes they come out as I put them in the washer. On my heavy duty cycle my washer does not spin the clothes. They come out drenched. I would not purchase this washer if you are a mechanic.

Tends to get a very musty smell in the warmer months. Even after using the washer clean cycle clothes and expecially towels will remain musty smelling after washing and drying.
