Product Description

4.7–4.8 Cu. Ft. Top Load Washer with 2 in 1 Removable Agitator

Customize your loads the way you want in this Whirlpool® Top Load Washer with 2 in 1 Removable Agitator. Simply remove the agitator to give bulky items a little more space to move. You can even pretreat stains right inside the washer using a built-in washing machine faucet to help remove loose soils.

2 in 1 Removable Agitator

The industry-first 2 in 1 Removable Agitator lets you customize any load to care for your clothes the way you want by easily swapping the agitator post in or out. With two ways to wash, it’s twice the washer you have at home.

Built-In Water Faucet

Easily prewash clothes and other items right in the washer with a conveniently located faucet that gives you easy access to an instant water stream to remove loose soils.

Presoak Option

Save a step by soaking and washing in one cycle. The Presoak Option starts washing your laundry after a 30 minute presoak.

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.

Additional Features

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.

Smooth Spiral Stainless Steel Wash Basket

Help protect fabrics with this stainless steel wash basket that gently guides clothes during the wash.

EasyView™ 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.

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.

360 Wash Agitator Option

Thanks to the industry-first 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.

4.7–4.8 Cu. Ft. Flexible Capacity

Wash more than 2 baskets of clothes in a single load* thanks to our washer with a flexible 4.7–4.8 Cu. Ft. Capacity. Keep the agitator in, or swap to the impeller for the extra room to wash bulky items. *One basket = 7 lbs.

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)

Extra Rinse Options

Two Extra Rinse options help ensure that messes and detergent are thoroughly rinsed away. Add it to heavily soiled clothes and loads with fabric softener to achieve an optimal clean.

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.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Ccrad from Lid lock feature ridiculous Returned it due to ridiculous lid lock. I never put dry clothes on top of detergent. Most clothes manufacturers say this could discolor your clothes. But with this machine that’s exactly what you have to do unless you want to wait at the machine until it gets to the soak cycle. When it gets to that cycle you can pause the machine and add clothes. If you try to pause it prior to that the machine will drain and start the wash cycle from the beginning where it adds water.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Keep looking from Frustrating to use The wash cycle in itself works great. Clothes definitely feel clean and washed. However, I picked this strictly because I wanted a simple top-load washing machine. The touch buttons fail to work half the time, and you must push hard to get a response remotely. The fabric softener setting doesn't unlock the door during the last cycle, so you can't add it unless you physically unlock it. When you try to start the load from where it left off after adding the softer fabric, the washer starts the entire load from the beginning. For a simple washing machine, it's extremely frustrating.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Warsher3 from Best of both washing worlds So far, This machine works great. Love that i can remove the center agitator to wash bedspread, sleeping bags and delicates. I've only been using it a month, but it's lived up to all promises so far.
