Whirlpool Washer - Cabrio Top Load WTW6600SBT Review Summary

If you need to do big loads of laundry, you will love the Whirlpool Cabrio say reviewers. This is a large capacity washing machine that will even handle your comforters. Clothes come out really clean too say reviewers. This works out great for farm families or if you have kids who come home covered with dirt. Even with the large size and great cleaning, this is a water saving model. The Whirlpool Cabrio is expensive, but it pays off with the energy savings. Reviewers also enjoy the clear lid. Kids (and adults) like to see the clothes bouncing around. Whirlpool added an automatic lock feature on the lid too which was a good idea. The early models had some issues with the water pump, but that's covered under warranty and seems to have been taken care of with the newer off-the-line models.

I bought this Whirlpool WTW6700TW, which is the updated model of the 6600 because it now has the 4.6 cft capacity, after having just bought a Whirlpool Duet that broke after just 3 weeks.  I had read so many reviews, both negative and positive and wanted to come back and give my two cents worth myself...

  The cabrio gets the clothes cleaner than any of the other washers I've had.  We farm, and with hard water (use water softner also) its been difficult keeping clothes looking like they are clean. 

  However, in forty plus years of doing laundry, I have never had a washing machine go out of balance,...

I purchase my Cabrio Whirlpool Washer 6600 in January of 2007 and I started having problems in March of 2008 after the warranty had expired.  First it would get unbanlance at every wash so I call a repair man.  I spent $60 dollars for the call and he said I had to replace a part which would be $220 and the part had to be ordered.  While I was waiting for the part the machine stopped having this problem.

Now July and August of 2008 I am having another problem.  It is getting stuck in the wash cycle.  So I called whirlpool and the rep. said to turn off the power braker for 5 to 10 minutes and...

Bought the Whirlpool Cabrio top load washer on 2/8/07.  Have always bought Whirlpool washers, but this is THE WORST washer I've ever owned.  My clothes have never been this dingy and just plain not clean.  This machine makes king-size sheets into a tight rope and then ties them in knots.  I cannot emphasize enough how much I hate this machine and wish I had my old 13-year-old Whirlpool back again.  Whirlpool needs to recall these machines NOW.

We just purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio washing machine from ABC Warehouse.  The service at ABC was fantastic!  Thank you Joseph!  The machine is incredible!  Even on the spin cycle, you can barely hear it.  Has double rinse cycle, automatic load size detector, special settings for stained laundry or "hard to clean", and is rated that if you do 8 loads of laundry PER week, it would cost you $40 a year to use this machine!  I call that efficient!

Specifics:

° Ultra Capacity  -- 3.8 cubic feet!
° Direct Inject Wash System

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... read full review »

I was lucky enough to get this washer as a Christmas present.  Mine has the clear glass top and I did spend some time watching it do it's thing!!!   Absolutely love being able to wash my king size down comforters in it......I think they're cleaner than when I've done them at the laundermat and definitely at lot less expensive.....the cycles are longer than the ones on my old whirlpool and at first I had to double rinse because I used too much detergent....but I have adjusted and am very happy to have it.  Being able to do larger loads is a real plus.

 I bought my Whirlpool about 8 months ago.It saves on water and does a thorough job. I love the larger load capacity.When you turn it on and set it, it locks and keeps children from opening it. I can now wash all of my bed linens without a problem. My comforters and quilted bedspreads get very clean and bright.I don't have to use nearly as much laundry detergent or bleach to get my clothes clean.Does a spectacular job on my whites.

Worst purchase we have ever made buying an appliance.  It tears up our clothes.  Have had it repaired and then repaired again.  The motherboard went out.  It does not get your clothes clean.  Gets unbalanced often. It also wrinkles our clothes.

The Cabrio is a great washer. You are able to do large loads with no problems, and the clothes come out clean. You use less soap is this machine.

Whirlpool Washer - Cabrio Top It seems to clean the clothes well, but can't say that it gets whites any whiter then my old washer. It does use smaller amounts of water (barely covers the clothes so hopefully enough to clean the clothes) and hard to tell with the HE detergents (they don't suds up much) if it is doing a great job but clothes come out clean. It is quiet while running, no rocking. You can unlock the lid if you need to add a forgotten item after you started the cycle. It does fit a king size bedspread. It does spin the water out well, towels take a lot less time to dry in the dryer....

I just bought this washer to replace a toploader maytag.  I had several problems with the maytag.  I looked at many options including the frontloaders.  I decided on the Cabrio and I love it!  It uses very little water and is very quiet.  My clothes have never been cleaner.  I love the high efficiency detergent. Also, there is no agitator so you can wash very large bulky items.  So many settings to chose from.   A great purchase and not too expensive.

I don't have much time to do laundry, so being able to fit all of my bedding in the wash at the same time really helps me out.  I love being able to control how much water it pulls out on the spin cycle so that the clothes don't come out feeling stiff.  It only takes high efficiency wash detergent, but most brands have a high efficiency product.

We have probably done 100 loads in this washer since buying it 8 months ago.  It does a fine job getting laundry of all  types clean.  Like any washer, it will occassionally unbalance with large bulky loads.  Also, high speed spin will wrinkle clothes badly.  I always use medium speed and it works fine for all types.

My washer started off bad, it wouldn't start, it had a light, that said lid not closed.I called customer service and they scheduled a repair person to come and take a look at my washer. He put on a part and the washer still didn't work. So, then he put the old part back on the washer and it worked. He informed us, what he had done and had no idea of how long it might work. Well, it didn't work but, for 1 load and down it went again with the same error message of lid not closed. I called customer service again, and told them the situation, they scheduled another visit with a repair person.... read full review »
