Whirlpool brand's premier fabric care system has become the best selling front loader in America. The Duet washer's Ultra Capacity Plus wash basket expertly cleans everything from the most delicate garments to heavy duty comforters and rugs. It does all that while using less than half the water and energy of traditional top-load washers. Also, wash up to 16 pairs of jeans in a single load.
Some of the features include 6th Sense Technology, Direct Inject Cleaning System, Quiet Wash Plus Noise Reduction, Stainless Steel Wash Basket and Add-A-Garment Feature.
This washer uses 186 kWh/yr and has an estimated yearly operating cost of $19.81.
The estimated yearly operating cost is based on doing 8 laundry loads a week and the 2007 national average electricity cost of $.1065 per kWh. Your operating cost will depend on your utility rates and usage.
*Operating cost based on electric water heating.

Quiet Wash Plus |
- The ENERGY STAR emblem signifies that the Duet washer meets the requirements set forth by the Department of Energy for cleaning efficiency
- 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
- A stain-removing shower of concentrated detergent deep cleans large loads and delicate garments, ensuring thorough cleaning
- 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
- 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
- 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
- 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
- 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
- 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
- This special Clean Washer cycle helps keep the stainless steel basket and drum clean of detergent buildup and odor
- 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
- The Handwashables cycle uses extra low, intermittent agitation to mimic washing in the sink for delicate care of hand wash garments
- A faster spin speed coupled with the Direct Inject system works to remove the toughest stains from the toughest and heaviest fabrics
- 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
- Heated wash water, coupled with the accuracy of the Smart Bleach dispensing system, helps ensure loads of whites receive optimal cleaning performance
- 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
- 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
- Locking doors offer added security
