About this Item

Whirlpool 4.5 cu. ft. Smart Front Load ENERGY STAR Washer with FreshFlow Vent System

This front load washer has a trio of freshness features with The FreshFlow Vent System. It's the first fan-powered system with antimicrobial protection designed to help keep your clothes and washer fresh. The FanFresh Option keeps clothes fresh in the wash.

Features:

FreshFlow Vent System
The FreshFlow Vent System is a trio of freshness features that helps keep your clothes and washer fresh. It's the first fan-powered system with the FanFresh Option, Dry Drum Cycle, and Antimicrobial Gasket.

FanFresh Option
Keep your clothes fresh in the washer after a cycle. The FanFresh Option uses a built-in fan and periodic tumbling to keep your just-washed clothes fresh until they're ready for the dryer, using less energy than you would re-washing your clothes.*
*Based on rewashing an 8 lb load on Normal cycle.

Dry Drum Cycle
After you take the clothes out, close your washer door and select the Dry Drum Cycle. A powerful fan reduces excess moisture from the drum, rubber gasket and door.

Antimicrobial Protection
Antimicrobial protection on the rubber seal helps keep your washer fresh by preventing the growth of odor-causing bacteria and mold.

Additional Features:

AI Intelligent Wash
Simplify your laundry routine with intelligent wash technology. It uses sensors to detect load size and fabric type, then automatically adjusts water levels, temperature, and wash actions for ideal fabric care and efficient cleaning performance.

Customers Say

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

This front-loading washer delivers noticeably cleaner, fresher-smelling clothes, though it requires some adjustment to longer cycle times and HE detergent requirements. The spacious drum handles large loads effectively, while features like the FanFresh tumbling system prevent forgotten laundry from developing odors. While the WiFi connectivity and extensive wash options offer impressive control, some may find the interface's learning curve steep. The machine runs quietly during regular cycles, though proper leveling is crucial to minimize spin cycle vibration. Water efficiency is excellent, but the minimal water usage takes getting used to. The build quality is generally good, though some plastic components draw mixed reactions compared to older metal designs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent washer [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I replaced a 22 year old Whirlpool washer that still ran beautifully but the ON button (plastic!!!) had disintegrated so to turn it on you had to stick your finger in the hole and push the red button on the panel. It was becoming difficult to start this way so time for a new machine. This machine is wonderful. It cleans beautifully, is quiet and has nice features. I had great difficulty trying to request a full owner’s manual when calling the help line or looking on line. My husband finally went to the store and had them print it out. I am very happy with the machine. The delivery and setup was not good. They left without engaging the feet of the pedestal so the first few washes the machine walked across the floor. My husband was able to secure the feet and all is well. The store could not send someone out for two weeks.

The only issue I had was a leak on the bottom when I used the CLEANING cycle with AFRESH. Otherwise, it cleans as expected. Works with the app as expected. Overall no issues. Not sure why it would leak during the cleaning cycle though.
