We had a 20 year old top load washer that filled completely up with water. So when we got the new Whirlpool High Efficiency top loader it took a few loads to see how the new technology works. The LED Basket Light feature (only on the Cabrio 8800 series) is so cool because you can leave it on during the cycle and watch everything. I must admit that at first I was skeptical, but after watching 5 or 6 loads I am now confident that the new machine does a very good job and gets all our clothes clean. Since the HE machines use less water the clothes have to remain in contact with the agitator plate in order for the machine to work right. If the basket filled completely with water items would float up and no agitation would take place. The machine senses how much water is needed and I find that the water level is always about 3/4 of the way to the top of the items in the basket. The Whirlpool Cabrio is pretty quiet, and makes different noises. Low volume sounds like gurgling, splashing, and whirling. There is also very little vibration and the machine remained stable even when I washed our king sized comforter. I am using liquid HE detergent and it dissolves well and leaves the clothes smelling fresh. Have also tried Oxi and fabric softener. The Whites cycle with Oxi worked really well on a large load or whites. Also the faster spin cycle does a great job of wringing out all the water. At the end of the cycle items are fairly dry. After 10 loads we have never found any soap residue on clothes. Best suggestion I can make is read your operators manual because they have lots of tips in there. For example, if your clothes are getting twisted up try reducing the soil level to help eliminate that problem. The lower the soil level the less agitation takes place. The biggest complaint we have is wish we had gone with white instead of the chrome shadow color because although it looks sleek the chrome shows dust & finger prints really bad.

I have read the booklet, and can't seem to fine tune it. I put the oxi-clean powder in the slot as it says, and sometimes the oxi-clean is still in the compartment and it's solid. Also, i have asked a salesman about something and I can't seem to get an answer on. I don't like the harshness of using clorox, in my other machine I was able to use use half a cup of peroxide for whites and it does not say anything in the book except for bleach. No one can answer my question if it's safe to use in this machine, don't want to damage any parts. Also, my clothes seem to be more wrinkled than my old top load washer. My friend has a front loader and her clothes are less wrinkled. Would love to hear back from someone to answer these questions Joanne

Comments about Whirlpool Cabrio Platinum Chrome Shadow Gas Dryer:

This product has top features and easy to use. I want to see if the they can find some innovation to improve the door. I works but for laundry room, the door takes my working space. If they have the door like the washer it would be nice.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love this dryer dries fast, quiet looks great. Didn't have installation included. Had to do it my self, not hard except tring to reverse the door it's easy to do if you can get the screws loose that hold the door. I stopped tring I didn't want to mess up the Phillips head on the screws. I will try later I may need a different screw driver

Comments about Whirlpool Cabrio Platinum Chrome Shadow Gas Dryer:

I went from a Maytag electric, 25 years of use to a gas fired new Cabrio. I bought the dryer out of necessity and got the matching washing machine too. Unfortunately, my preference is for complete drying. Old school that way. The unit has yet to dry clothes completely dry. Always some dampness.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
