Whirlpool Duet HT WFW9400S

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.
