I love this washer! Ten times better than any washers I have had! Only have to wash twice a week now. Not 4.

Love the steam cleaning feature. High tech appearance. Touch screen. only problem is if you want to spin again you have to rinse it too. It does take longer to wash but the trade off is that it is very quiet. The massive capacity ensures that i don't have to use it very much.

My family and I got this Whirlpool washer and we have a love hate relationship with it. The washer is great for standard cottons and cotton mixes but once you get into the more delicate fabrics, the washer seems to rough them up a bit. Since the majority of the stuff we wash are socks, undies, and standard shirts we didn't have many problems. But if you're looking at buying make sure you take that into recommendation!

Lid is of poor design, plastic frame broke after 18 months. Warranty is for 1 year and Whirlpool fails to stand behind their product. Not enough water in wash modes so extra rinse must always be used, defeating energy/water savings. Whirlpool has made quality products in the past, unfortunately, this is not one of them.

My husband and I purchased this washer after using our other agitator washer for 15+ years. The main reason we purchased it was because it is supposed to save water. Second reason is it is supposed to clean better than the agitator type washer. This one does NEITHER! More than half of the loads that are washed come out with dirt still on them, massive lint bunched up in sections on the clothing or torn or shredded too! Worst purchase we have ever made and the price was NOT cheap either! Energy Efficiency I picked satisfactory because I do not know if it saves on anything! The wash cycle is LONG so electric would be higher and it is supposed to save water. We have NOT noticed a huge difference in either so NO this is not Energy Efficient in my own opinion. Cleaning Time Takes WAY too long for a cleaning cycle. It does not matter if it is a small load or a large load because BOTH take TOO LONG! Performance It doesn't clean wash good at all. See first answer above. Ease of Use Just ok, though it does take awhile to figure out which cycle type to use and I had to read the instructions many times. There is too much digital stuff on this machine too. Design First of all, I HATE it that the lid locks because I have absolutely NO IDEA what is going on inside that machine! Second of all, the drum is quite large and it is hard to reach to the bottom to get clothes out when they are finished. Durability fine I guess, I am not sure that I have had it long enough to show durability though!

There seem to be those that think that a washer will not clean without a tub FULL of water and using a quart of detergent. Not so! The 5.1 CF Cabrio handles gigantic loads with minimum water and detergent. Cleans exceptionally well and have not had any issues in 8 months. Have not had problems with being hard on clothes either. Expensive but well worth it - and these appliances look great as well. Be prepared for different sounds from washer as it will not have 25 gallons of water in it! Energy Efficiency We reallu USE this thing. 3 to 4 loads daily as daughter & grandson live with us. Saves a LOT of water over old washer (also a Whirlpool, no problems, just upgraded) Gets clothes clean without any problem - even grandson's baseball uniforms. Ease of Use Almost too many selections but easy to find one that is "just right" for the load. Design Great looking and performing machines. Durability So far, so good. No issues in 8 months of heavy use.

we've had this washer for less than a year and have called a tech out 3 times for a loud grinding sound that can be heard throughout the whole house when I try washing a larger load. My load I'm told is still smaller than what it's suppose to be able to handle. i only wash about 4 or 5 bath towels when it says it can handle up to 10. WHen I do wash these 5 towels the washer usually make the horrible grinding sound. The first time the tech came out he couldn't find anything wrong and said to call back when it happens again. Then the second time I started doing laundry the day he was coming out and paused the load so he could hear the noise. THis time he took the basket and components out and said it all looked fine and didn't know where it was coming from. Well now it's doing it again and we're ready to ask for a new washer. I also feel like it doesn't wash all the clothes that that well. I'll throw in a shirt that was folded and it will come out of the washer still folded.

The Whirlpool Cabrio top loading washer is one of the best investments that you can purchase if you are looking for a new washing machine. We purchased ours because the LG front loader we had required a very pricey repair and it was cheaper to purchase a new washer. After much research about a new washing machine, the Whirlpool Cabrio top loader was hands down the best machine out there. The benefits of a top loader are combined with the energy efficiency of a front loader in the Cabrio, and the space of the wash tub is incredible. The Cabrio eliminates the agitator, which in traditional top loaders causes severe wrinkling of clothes and made clothing wear out faster. In the Cabrio there is a small "impeller" at the bottom of the wash tub that rotates, spins, and "kneads" clothes through the water to ensure a proper clean. There is no rubber seal, as in the front loaders, which eliminates the mold build up that is experienced in front loaders. This model is also an "H2low" model and uses significantly less water than traditional top loaders or front loaders. The machine senses the size of the load and determines the proper amount of water to add to the cycle for maximum cleaning and efficiency. It has 16 wash cycles, and many different options to make each wash specific for the items you are washing. It is probably the best washer on the market, and can be found at all major retailers and even online. I have yet to find something about the Cabrio that I do not like. One word of advice though, always remember to load your washer evenly or it won't spin properly. Its easy and all it takes to make sure the washer is loaded evenly is to make sure you have clothing spread out on each side of the wash tub and everything is fine!
