Whirlpool Duet HT Front Load White Washer, Model WFW9400SWH

Video Demonstrations:
(Click hyperlink text to view)

Wash 16 pairs of jeans in a single load with half the water and energy.* This Duet HT® washer offers 14 cycles and 6th Sense™ technology with intuitive controls. Dynamic Stability Control and a 6-point suspension system reduces vibration. *Various sizes, compared to a traditional top-load washer.

Features:

  • ENERGY STAR® Qualified
  • Ultra Capacity Plus
  • 6th Sense™ Technology
    As soon as the wash cycle is started, Duet® and Cabrio™ washers use various sensors to determine the size of the load and precisely how much water is needed to clean it. Heat sensors then monitor the temperature, and make sure water is warmed gradually to make cleaning enzymes optimally effective. Suds sensors also work to prevent oversudsing in the low water wash system
  • Direct Inject Wash System
    A stain-removing shower of concentrated detergent deep cleans large loads and delicate garments, ensuring thorough cleaning
  • Care Control Temperature Management
    Care Control Temperature Management uses built-in sensors to monitor wash water and ensure it's warm enough to dissolve detergents and cool enough to ensure proper fabric care
  • Quiet Wash Plus Noise Reduction
    Innovative noise reducing technology brings the beauty of silence to the laundry room. Choose a washer with the quiet wash package that meets your needs; Ultra Quiet Wash, Quiet Wash Plus and Quiet Wash. All three packages are remarkable for what they don't do - make noise
    • Ultra Quiet Wash: Our quietest wash system ever. Strategically-placed, sound absorbing materials on the front, sides and bottom of the washer cabinet, along with a quieter hose design, gives you the flexibility to operate the washer wherever and whenever without disruption
    • Quiet Wash Plus: Sound-absorbing materials on the front, sides and bottom of the cabinet help keep operational sounds inside the washer and out of your daily life
    • Quiet Wash: Helps reduce operational noise with a sound-absorbing pad on the front of the washer cabinet
  • Stainless Steel Wash Basket
    The interior of the washer features a stainless steel basket that resists odors, rusting, or chipping. It's smooth enough to gently handle fabrics and durable enough to stay looking new
  • Built-In Water Heater
  • 14 Factory Pre-Set Cycles and Options
  • Add-A-Garment Feature
    The convenient Add-A-Garment light illuminates on the control panel for the first 8 minutes of the wash cycle. This gives a convenient reminder that forgotten items can still be added to the load in progress and still receive the same effective cleaning
  • Auto Soak & Pre-Wash Cycles
  • Bulky Items Cycle
    The specially-designed cycle is ideal for cleaning bulky items like comforters, sleeping bags, down jackets or pillows, all of which fit easily into the wash basket
  • Clean Washer Cycle
    This special Clean Washer cycle helps keep the stainless steel basket and drum clean of detergent buildup and odor
  • Delicate Cycle
    Select a Delicates Cycle when cleaning delicate or knit items. A reduced agitation speed and low spin speed provide needed fabric care without sacrificing cleaning performance
  • Hand Washables Cycle
    The Handwashables cycle uses extra low, intermittent agitation to mimic washing in the sink for delicate care of hand wash garments
  • Heavy Duty Cycle
    A faster spin speed coupled with the Direct Inject system works to remove the toughest stains from the toughest and heaviest fabrics
  • Normal/Casual Cycle
  • Quick Wash Cycle
  • Sanitary Cycle
    The internal water heater warms the wash water to 153 degrees F., a temperature hot enough to eliminate 99.999% of harmful bacteria. Use of the sanitary cycle can eliminate the need for bleach to disinfect and sanitize certain types of laundry
  • Silk Cycle
  • Whitest Whites Cycle
    Heated wash water, coupled with the accuracy of the Smart Bleach™ dispensing system, helps ensure loads of whites receive optimal cleaning performance
  • Wool Cycle
  • Adjustable End-of-Cycle Signal
  • 5 Temperature Selections
  • Delay Wash Feature
    A delayed wash of up to twelve hours lets laundry be done in off-peak hours, when energy savings may be even more, or just at a later time when it is more convenient to switch the load to the dryer
  • Drain/Spin Option
  • On/Off Extra Rinse Option
  • Rinse and Spin Option
  • 4-Tray Prewash, Detergent, Bleach, Fabric Softener Dispenser
  • Automatic Water Level Control
    Built-in sensors regulate the amount of water used to match the size of the load so that only the absolute minimum water needed is used. With this efficient feature, the Duet® washer can save up to 23 gallons of water per load
  • 1,200 RPM Maximum Spin Speed
  • 6-Point Self-Leveling System
  • Variable-Speed Motor
  • Easy View Door Window

This Whirlpool works fantastic. After getting through all the multiple settings this product works much better than I would ever of thought. It is very quiet, and uses so much less water. The big item I like is the spin cycle, my clothes come out almost dry so my drier time is cut way back...

Ecstatic with this washer.
Reviewed by Shell the fastidious one. (Frequent User) from Moore, OK on Oct 04, 2008
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
[...]. I would like for it to do all the heating of the water instead of just partial heating. That would save my hot water heater from working so hard. I really appreciate the short cycle on this machine for light soil. Another positive for this machine is you can dry the gasket and also remove soap dispenser, empty water and dry it to keep washer smelling fresh.

Verified Reviewer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
This machine is perfect, works well and my clothes have never been cleaner. The extra large capacity really cuts down on the number of washes I do every week. It's not as quiet as I thought it would be, but certainly not as loud as my old washer. I'm just sorry that I had to wait so long buy this, but it was well worth the wait.

Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
We are a family of 7 so we were looking for an energy efficient washer that would spin fast enough to remove most of the water so the dry cycles would be shorter. This machine does exactly that. Clothes come out clean. Main level installation on wood floor with basement below and it hasn't moved at all. Very easy to install for a do it yourselfer. Delivery was fast efficient and friendly. I would definately recommend this product.

Disappointed f
Reviewed by Jerry Marx (Heavy Duty User) from Chicago on May 15, 2008
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
I bought this washer because of the large capacity (for washing comforters), Consumer Report's recommendation and that it had a bulky setting for comforters. I found that the heavy setting works better than the bulky setting for comforters because you cannot use the extra high spin setting under bulky items. The comforters come out too wet when using the bulky setting. I don't think it is worth the money I spent on it.

First unit DOA, second one works great.
Reviewed by YanMan (Practical, Bargain Hunter) from Katy, TX on Dec 28, 2007
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
We bought this washer to replace a 12 year old Kenmore that had finally bitten the dust. The first unit arrived DOA. [...] the new unit works very well. To be fair on the cons, the unit only shakes and the cycle is only long because the spin cycle is really fast - so much so that the dryer only needs half as much time as it used to.Also, this thing is really a miser when it comes to detergent. Even though HE detergent is more expensive, you will still save money.
