FreshFlow Vent System

A trio of freshness features, the FanFresh® Option, Dry Drum Cycle, and an antimicrobial gasket, is the first fan-powered system designed to help keep clothes and the washer fresh.

Intelligent Wash Technology

Sensors detect load size and fabric type, then automatically adjust water levels, temperature, and wash action for efficient, fabric-appropriate cleaning.

Quick Wash & Dry Combo

Pairing the 25-minute Quick Wash cycle with a 30-minute timed dry finishes laundry in under an hour.

25-Minute Quick Wash Cycle

A full-sized load can be washed fast with the 25-minute Quick Wash Cycle.

5.0 Cu. Ft. Capacity

At 5.0 cu. ft., this is Whirlpool's largest front load washer capacity, fitting extra-large loads in a single cycle.

Smart Features with Whirlpool App

Compatible with Alexa, Android, Google Assistant, and iOS, the Whirlpool® App lets you start, pause, and track loads from anywhere.

Cycle Notification, Stain Guide, Voice Control

App-connected features include cycle notifications, a step-by-step Stain Guide, voice control, Family Share, and specialty, favorite, and custom cycles.

ENERGY STAR Certified

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

Sanitize and Cold Wash Cycles

The Sanitize cycle eliminates 99.9% of common household bacteria, while the Cold Wash cycle saves up to 90% of energy versus washing hot.

Pump Access, Pedestal-Compatible, Stackable

The drain pump is easy to reach, and the washer is compatible with the WFP2715RU or XHP1000XW pedestal or can be stacked with a matching dryer.

Clean Washer with affresh Cycle

Run the Clean Washer with affresh® Cycle periodically with an affresh® tablet or liquid chlorine bleach to keep the washer interior fresh.

Add Garment Mid-Cycle

Pause the washer and open the door to add forgotten items early in the wash cycle.

Presoak Option and Steam Clean

The Presoak option adds a 30-minute soak before washing, and the Steam Clean option uses added wash action and heat to help remove tough stains.

Inverter-Driven Direct Drive Motor

An inverter-driven variable speed direct drive motor delivers efficient, durable performance with fewer moving parts.
