Whirlpool Washer - Cabrio Top Load WTW6600SBT — 

I purchased the Cabrio washer and dryer pair about two years ago because this model had received good reviews, and I really liked the style and capacity of the set. The Cabrio series looks fresh, clean, and modern, but is not flashy; the simple color palette should keep this set from looking dated any time soon. The controls are great. There is one knob and the rest of the controls are via electronic keypad. The layout is simple and functional. One of my favorite features is the versatility the Cabrio offers, accommodating varioius size loads, different temperature settings, and adjustable cleaning settings based on how soiled the clothing is.

I am happy with this purchase, and I feel it is a good value (I purchased the set during a Sears promotion offering a 10% discount). My only concern is that within the past two months I have had to have the washer repaired. For someone who does maybe 2-3 loads of laundry a week, I didn't expect the washer to need service for many years. But during the spin cycle, the washer was making an extremely loud noise; the technician determined that the drum needed to be replaced, which cost me several hundred dollars.

All in all, I am happy with this purchase. My only regret is that I didn't purchase the extended service contract. I am not very adept at mechanical repairs!
