Smooth Impeller Option
Easily remove the industry-first 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.

Customers Say

AI-generated from the text of customer reviews

This top-load washer combines practical functionality with modern features, though it comes with some notable trade-offs. The spacious 4.8 cu. ft. drum handles large family loads and bulky items like king comforters, while the innovative removable agitator offers welcome flexibility for different laundry needs. Cleaning performance is generally good, especially with the agitator installed, though the sensor-based water levels may leave some wanting more manual control. The glass lid adds convenient visibility, but the basic control panel and longer cycle times require some adjustment. While the spin cycle effectively removes water, operational noise is noticeable, and the lack of built-in dispensers means manual product addition. It's a capable machine that requires some compromise between modern efficiency and traditional washing preferences.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great machine Great washing machine. Very spacious. I like the glass top. And I like that I can easily remove the agitator. Easy to put back too! So far so good.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great features! lots of space [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this about a month ago, and I am so happy that I told many of my friends and family about it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent machine - cleans well. [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like my new machine. I do wish that it had just a spin cycle so if you just want to get water out of an item you can spin it. The drain and spin cycle fills the tub, drains then spins. Otherwise I really like it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from GREAT job Whirlpool [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought our new Whirlpool washer about a month ago. It finishes in half of time of the old Maytag washer. We bought a model with a removable Agitator but haven't removed it yet since this basket seems so much larger than the old Maytag Washer we had. Even our old Maytag Dryer seems to be collecting so much more lint than before. We love our new Whirlpool Washer, GREAT job Whirlpool.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve had the washer for about 2 weeks. It’s much quieter than my previous washer and my clothes feel cleaner. It’s also easy to use. I’ve always liked Whirlpool washers and dryers. Unfortunately, I could not buy the matching dryer because the 22 inch top opening door would not fit in my space. Please consider a side opening dryer door for closet installations. I prefer top opening doors, but they do not always work in tight spaces.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great top load washer! [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never thought I could be so excited to have a new appliance. Our older front load washer was leaking so we decided to get something new, and I knew I wanted a top load. This washer is amazing. It's such a large capacity (while at the same time the overall washer is smaller and takes up less space than our prior washer), it's efficient, and it has so many different type of load settings. No matter what type of clothes I'm washing, there's a setting for it. I recommend this washer!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the Removeable Agitator [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago because my other Whirpool washer of 20 years broke down. Not because of the washer itself but because of the senser in the door. I wanted an old school washer that had an agitator in the middle but could also wash comforters. This does both because you can remove the center agitator whenever you need to! Love it!

how often does the sensor go out

Asked by: Johnson
I don’t think it’s ever gone out. My problem is I’m 78 yrs old and not especially good with computer technology. I was not provided with a manual to show me all the features and how to use them. Very frustrating.
