It was nearly 4 months ago when I first received my Whirlpool Duet Washer and Dryer. And in 4 months – we have been through a whole lot! To see all that we’ve been through just have a look:
Read my First Whirlpool Post: “Whirlpool Wash Team Test Drive & WithOurBest.”

Not to mention the doomsday the Whirlpool machines went through when I was out of town and my husband tried to do his own laundry…
Yes that is a bullet casing.
Although I’ve mentioned that emptying pockets and NOT putting bras in the dryer are critical first rules of laundry… communication got lost along the way. I found this little bad boy in the bottom of the washer and my deformed bra in the dryer. :'(
SURE, I might not know-it-all when it comes to laundry, but I know one thing… don’t let my husband do it! LOL.
Ok, but in all seriousness… I don’t need to know-it-all because Whirlpool helps me know-it-all. Like one of my favorite features: the LCD screen with TONS of information and stain assist. Basically, my machine informs me on how to choose what washes to do and how to get out stains. Impressive, right?
Alright. So after the initial testing stages, or what I like to call it, “the getting to know you stage”… my Whirlpool and I have made a very special bond.
It’s just so easy to bond with the Whirlpool Duet Washer and Dryer. The bells and whistles on this machine are almost too many to mention. Aside from the LCD screen and helpful menus, I can’t get enough of the multiple load options.
Whirlpool HE Duet Washer has some useful cycles I haven’t had before. A jeans-specific wash. Specialty cycles for items such as comforters, pillows, intimates and more. A whitest white wash (which works wonders on whites!). All washer cycles are a little different from each other and all of them are great in their own ways. I love having the perfect cycle ready-to-go for my loads of laundry. And same goes for the dryer too!
Oh, and I cannot forget to mention! The feature that had me head over heels when I first found it. And still it is a feature I am obsessed with today. The Precision Dispense feature.
I fill up the detergent dispenser about once every two weeks. That’s it! It has the technology to dispenses just the right amount for each load and stores the rest for later loads! It saves time and money, and IMHO it is pure genius… oh right, and of course this smart-machine tells me when it needs a refill! Ah, Whirlpool.
Even though I don’t know how to get every stain out on my own, or keep things from shrinking, the Whirlpool High Efficiency Duet Washer and Dryer helps me with it all.
It’s just a bummer that our relationship is one-sided… I use and abuse. I load dirty, grimy clothing, and still in return get clean, fresh smelling ones. Just because the Whirlpool Duet loves me THAT MUCH.
There isn’t much for me to give back. Except some tender loving care when I clean the washer out monthly with the Affresh cycle! (Which actually, my machine even reminds me to do! LOL!)
And a daily hug … or two.
Yes, sometimes I just hug my washing machine.
