MariaM –
Very compact, easy to use, clothes comes out not too wet to dry for very long time.
Pooh100 –
Very great choice! Quiet wash and rinse! No complaints!
JamesN –
A little noisier than I expected but otherwise does a great job getting clothes thoroughly clean. Has some useful features that help the water usage down as well.
YendryC –

Great washer works very well. Quiet while running.
Samuel –
The Prada was good it was fast to get it and pick up was good I would change it there for other one but they said would take to long but I am happy with the one I bought anyway
SharonP –
Am very happy with this washer. It has a large capacity and washes very well. I like it very much.
Nick –
Great! Works just like It should, have had for 4 months with no issues.
RoSE –
The new washer works just fine. I like that it has a fabric softener dispenser. With my old washer, I had to listen for the rinse cycle and then go add the softener.
GeorgeP –
Worst product I ever bought. Rocked violently even on small loads. Destroyed my laundry room I. One such occasion . Whirlpool support came out 6 times replaced the shocks and other parts and just more of the same. Ended up just replacing with zero store credit from whirlpool or Best Buy. Do not buy this junk! After 6 months of repeated visits from the repair man the dryer now broke. I will never purchase anything from whirlpool or their affiliates.
GJRR –
We purchased it a couple days ago, got it yesterday. It didn’t even turn on. Junk.
CarlosA –
Good machine. No fancy bells and whisles. Just a solid washer that gets the job done
MadisonYL –

We weren’tsure if this was going to be a quality item. But we are very happy with this product.
CarlJ –
Got this washing machine as an open box.. Simple machine that does the job done. simple settings.. just select and push!
Anita –
Returned way to loud especially spinning cycle whole machine just wobbling and no it was not off balance
DennisA –
Excellent, low cost, efficent washier. No tumble issues with spin cycle. Set and walk away reliable.
JenniferO –
We bought this washing machine to replace our 20 year old whirlpool washer that finally died. This washer is terrible. It spins off balance (and very loudly) with even the lightest load in it. I’ve occasionally taken clothes out after a cycle that aren’t completely wet and the clothes often still smell of perfume. It’s definitely not cleaning the clothes. Very disappointed.
Bobby –
Good washer. Simple, but gets the job done. Like the color wash options.
Mich –
Washer has a push button start and pause panel that is a
poor idea. I am having to double check when I start the washer that it has started the cycle. I have had to restart often.
Also the washer does not have a warm rinse option. Just cold.
Kyle –
Amazing! Great delivery and easy installation. Simple controls and easy to use.
LizA –
The best washing machine I’ve ever bought. It was worth the expense.
vaughn13 –

JobeB –
Affordable and efficient. Install was quick and easy.
LOrtiz –
Works great so far. Pretty quiet overall. Good value on amount spent.
VictorA –
Excellent product, works great easy to install hopefully will last.
MatthewR –
This W/D was bought as a set. While the dryer is good, this washer is below expectations. Although it has an agitation arm, it doesn’t appear to do much agitating, creating barely any suds. It seems to need 1.5x the detergent than our previous washer. It auto-senses how much water to fill, but I often see dry corners sticking up especially when washing large or bulky loads. I was hoping that this machine would at least come close to the quality of our old Kenmore 600 series washer, but it does not. (It had a broken frame so we had to replace it after 10 years. We bought it used, so it was likely much older than that.)
I run an additional rinse and spin cycle, with white vinegar, to be sure everything is actually clean. That is even after using the “Deep Water Rinse” setting, which doesn’t appear to add any more water than the regular setting.
Would not buy again.
CarmenV –
excellent service, service and delivery on time, the installation very good.
Megan –
The washer is huge! So many setting to clean your clothes on. The auto fill is very nice and saves you water
MichaelD –
These machines are a great Value and are serving me very well. I’m definitely satisfied with the purchase.
VictorM –
I purchased a washer from Best Buy recently and the process was smooth, from the purchase to the delivery and setup, all was nice and professional
ReeRee –
I bought it for my mom. It wasba little high tech for her bot now she got the hang of it and is enjoying it. She like the water levels on it. She is pleased with it and so am I.
Unknown –
Good product and item as described and easy to use it
PatricialT –
Purchase was made at a good competitive price. Delivery and installation went smoothly on the correct promised day and time. Installers were friendly and professional.So nice to have a good washer that does every load without a problem. Would not hesitate to buy more appliances from Best Buy in the future.
jessy –
It’s fast, leaves the clothes clean and is not noisy.
JohnR –
Absolutely love the washer. Quiet and efficient. So happy with the purchase.
Cindy –
Not happy.I switched back to a washer with an agitator.I’ve had them before but this one’s noise level is extremely loud. Even before the wash cycle starts it is banging and popping as it is assessing the load. What is that?
JenniferN –
I bought this product in March of 2022. It started having problems going into the wash cycle in December of 2023. We switched the settings to Auto-Sensing only and it started working again in to l January 5th of 2024. For a product that is less than 2 years old to malfunction this easily is disheartening and unacceptable. These $600 and up products should last way longer than 1-1/2 years. Whirlpool at that. I guess we need the extended warranty on everything nowadays. Or maybe just buy the $900 washer instead. Sad.
BrettH –
Great washer will be buying the dryer to match no disappointments
LindaS –
PROS: Works well. Has an agitator..yay! Has deep water wash and rinse and you can trick it to add extra water for large loads by opening and closing the lid. Clothes are clean. So far no issues. CONS: the pause button doesn’t stay paused very long before draining the wash water (wasteful). The old model I used to be able to lift the lid for pause and soak clothes. I miss that. I can’t wash small throw rugs without putting them in a bag. It tears them up. Somehow they catch under the agitator during the spin cycle. It also tears up my steam mop pads. Anything with a thick edge has to go in a bag. Towels and clothes no problems. Not a deal breaker but it’s a pain. Overall I’m happy with it. The deep water factor is the selling point.
Minor1 –
Such a nice washer and dryer!!! So many options on them to save water and electricity. If you need a short wash or a heavy cycle you got it in this washer and dryer! I’ve put comforters in it and no problems washing them. And the price you can’t beat!!!! Dryer gets good n hot dries so quick!!!!
buddyboy –
An amazing purchase!! Handles big loads easily. And does it all quickly. We didn’t know how lucky we were to make this purchase.
user661911 –
I am extremely happy with my purchase. Great cleaning power
KeithP –
Works great…simple features without all the electronic displays and digital components which often malfunction
user846272 –
Great washer very quiet when operating gets clothes very clean
AtrainRadio –
Bought this as an “open item” hoping whatever initial problem it had might have been fixed. Boy were we wrong. The washer worked in certain cycles only but never under the normal wash. Nevermind it has an agitator which can cause damage to clothes faster. Decided to spend a little more and traded it back for a Front Load washer and praying for better results.
LatoyaS –
Less than 1yr old and the washer machine has stop spinning
