About this Item

5.2--5.3 Cu. Ft. Whirlpool Top Load Washer with Removable Agitator

This ENERGY STAR Certified 5.2--5.3 cu. ft. Whirlpool Top Load Washer gives you two ways to wash thanks to the 2 in 1 Removable Agitator. Wash the way you want by simply removing the agitator to fit bulky items, or keeping it in to help break down loose soils. Use the Deep Water Wash Option to add more water* when you need it and easily check on your laundry while it's washing with the EasyView Full-Width Slow-Close Glass Lid. The Smooth Spiral Stainless Steel Wash Basket helps prevent fabrics from snagging, so clothes come out looking their best. *Bulky Items Cycle only available with deepest water level.

Key Features:

2 in 1 Removable Agitator
The 2 in 1 Removable Agitator lets you choose how you wash and care for your clothes by easily swapping the agitator post in or out. With two ways to wash, it's twice the washer you have at home.

EasyView Full-Width Slow-Close Glass Lid
Enjoy a clean, streamlined look with the slow-close, see-through lid that lets you easily check on your load while it's washing.

Deep Water Wash Option
Get more water to help break down loose soils. This option automatically adds more water to your load, so heavily soiled clothes get an optimal clean.* *Bulky Items Cycle only available with deepest water level.

Smooth Spiral Stainless Steel Wash Basket
Help protect fabrics with this stainless steel wash basket that gently guides clothes during the wash.

Additional Features:

360 Wash Agitator Option
Thanks to the 2 in 1 Removable Agitator, you can easily reinsert the agitator whenever you want to switch back from the impeller. Multiple wash motions gently move clothes up, down and side to side throughout the cycle for a thorough clean in different water levels.

5.2--5.3 Cu. Ft. Flexible Capacity
Wash more than 3 baskets of clothes in a single load* thanks to our washer with a flexible 5.2--5.3 cu. ft. Capacity. Keep the agitator in, or swap to the impeller for the extra room to wash bulky items. *Based on an 7-lb load.

ENERGY STAR Certified
ENERGY STAR Certified models exceed government standards to help conserve natural resources and save money on your utility bills.

Quick Wash Cycle
Your small, lightly soiled loads will be clean in as little as 30 minutes with the Quick Wash Cycle. (Based on a 3-lb load.)

Single Load Dispenser
Add detergent and fabric softener to their designated compartments so each gets dispensed at just the right time during the cycle.

Whirlpool Corporation started in 1911 as a small company in Benton Harbor, Michigan. Today we are a global home appliance business selling products around the world. We are proud of our American heritage and ingenuity that have driven innovation for over 100 years.

Smooth Impeller Option
Easily remove the 2 in 1 Removable Agitator when your load needs a little more space to move. Impeller wash action cleans by rubbing the fabrics against each other, while the design of the impeller's surface helps drive clothes from the outer rim to the center, where the deepest cleaning happens.

Expanded Finishes
Choose from a traditional finish like White or elevate your laundry space with the new Volcano Black finish. Available in a matching washer and dryer set, this sleek and stylish matte black finish will complete the look of your laundry room.

Extra Rinse Option
Ensure dirty loads get the care they need with an extra rinse to wash away any lingering soils or detergent.

Lid Lock
Unlock the lid any time simply by pressing the Start/Pause button. The lid automatically locks when the load sensing phase begins, at which point the Lid Lock icon on the console is illuminated.

Clean Washer with affresh Cycle
Run the Clean Washer with affresh Cycle every 30 washes with an affresh washing machine cleaner tablet or liquid chlorine bleach to thoroughly clean the inside of your washer.

Customers Say

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

This top-load washer strikes a balance between traditional functionality and modern convenience, anchored by its innovative removable agitator design. The spacious tub handles family-sized loads and bulky items with ease, though shorter users might need a step stool to reach the bottom. While it generally delivers good cleaning results, especially with the agitator in place, many find themselves adjusting water levels manually to ensure adequate coverage. The straightforward controls and see-through lid make operation simple, though the machine runs notably louder than some might expect, particularly during spin cycles. Despite some plastic components feeling less substantial than older models, the washer's versatility in handling both regular and oversized loads makes it a practical choice for everyday laundry needs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Beautiful beast [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had to see it visually before making the purchase online. I only had the washer to check out. The removable agitator is a game changer, I've had an impeller for over 10 years. Having the option to remove for bulk loads or even just to clean excess build up is fantastic. Very sturdy and easy. Great functionality, washes timely, overall great machine. Extremely happy with purchase, the matching dryer is beautiful.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great features and easy to use [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had a front load washer for many years and decided to go with this top loader because I like the convenience of taking out the agitator so that I can do bulky things. I like the fact that it washes my clothes clean and a shorter time than the front loader and unlike the front loader it is easier to access for me to get the clothes in and out.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Smooth and quiet [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Smooth and quiet, this unit is much quieter than our previous whirlpool washer. The removable agitator is a great innovation. We also appreciate the see-thru lid. The beltless drive should provide excellent durability and reliability.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy to use [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only had this washer for a couple weeks but if it is good as the maytag that was replaced then it should make if for 20yrs. I do not think I will be around in 20 years.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great features! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the washer about a month ago. I wanted a big washer and I liked being able to remove the agitator in the middle. It uses a LOT LESS water than I’m used to. I use warm water and because of that I can’t see the clothes as they are washing. I thought I would be able to. Some people complained that the washer was noisy. There is some noise but I don’t think it’s that loud. I really like the washer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exceptional washing machine [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this washer because of the removable agitator. Having used this washer for the last two eeels, I am I could not be any happier with this washer. It washes my clothes in half of the time compared to my previous washing machine. The spin cycle really does an exceptional job making the drying time so much less. If I could give it more than 5 stars I would have.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Large drum and removable agitator [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought my washer about 1 month ago. My repair man recommended either a whirlpool or a Maytag. He said that they were very good machines I had a Maytag and it served me well . the reason I purchased the Whirlpool was because it had the removable agitator.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great capacity [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this washer for six weeks. I am happy with it so far. It cleans my husband the farmer dirty clothes well. I bought it for the large capacity and that the agitator removes for large items. I have washed my king sized comforter with no problem. I also wash my 5 X 7 washable rug with no problem. The only thing I do not like is that the lid locks. You can't run go throw a forgotten item in once you close it. If you select the high water option, it will cover the clothes that are washing. This seemed to be a complaint for some that it doesn't use enough water. It is as some have noted a noisy machine. Not a problem for me since it is in the laundry room.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very happy with my Whirlpool Washing Machine [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy that the product has a see-through lid, a removable agitator and the tub is very large for bulky comforters. Its whisper quiet compared to my last washing machine and appears to clean my clothes very well. My only complaint is that once the wash cycle begins, the lid locks and won't let me rinse the soap cap (nothing major).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great washer [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only owned the washer 2 weeks but I love it as does my husband. We are glad we decided to purchase this washer, your clothes come out great & soaking. Yes, spin is a little load but we were made aware of that by the salesman but it's not that loud. Removable agitator is great.
Date published: 2025-07-03
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Big Improvement [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I haven't used it very long yet, but so far the washer works like a charm. It's a bit smaller and lighter than the last front loader unit we had, but that is nice for moving, and the drum size is still huge. We love the removeable agitator option. The front load water level sensor went out, so it kept calling for water until it leaked through the front door. Not a problem with this washer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Top Loader Rocks [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We purchased our top load washer for our new home and so far, are very pleased. It provides the features we were looking for: a removable agitator for blankets, comforters, and other bulky items; dispensers for bleach, fabric softener, and optional liquid detergent; a mode knob dial -vs- an all-electronic touch panel. I did notice that when unlike bulky items were washed together (i.e. towels & sheets) the unit had difficulty staying in balance during the rinse/spin cycle and would essentially shut down or at least fail to properly complete the spin cycle leaving one with a wet load. Once items were separated everything worked fine. Additionally, a top loader eliminates the odor and maintenance cleaning challenges associated with front load washers.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this about three weeks ago and have been so pleased. My clothes are coming out cleaner and smelling more fresh than they ever have.
