This music made me feel that we’ve made the correct choice as adults in the choice of our washing machine. And also thinkers.
I purchased this set in the very beginning of 2020. Purchased brand new from Home Depot. In the spring of 2021 it had issues with the door lock, bad door seal and switch in the controls. The company was great and extended excellent customer service even though they first started with the stance that they will only cover 1year. It is now only 2 years old and now the machine won't start, control panel is clicking and I am deeply regretful of my purchase. It is sad and pathetic that consumers can not rely on major appliance companies to step up. My opinion is that major appliances should be expected to work perfectly for no less than 3 years. Curious to know why folks are pressured and assumed to buy extended warranty. Please note, when the repair tech came for the initial visit, he said that he had seen these issues quite a bit. Buyer beware, even buying a brand new set and paying full price, you cannot expect a reliable appliance for years to come. Deeply disturbing and disappointing.
Starting to not like these. Work in maintenance and every apartment keeps on having issues with these
This machine is a waist you damn near has to be a engineer to understand how
To program it .
Ours is locked and the numbers are blinking. Do you know how to fix that
Same to me. the the freaking door lock is killing me
This product is terrible. Do not buy, trust me.
Bought this washer 2 weeks ago. So far a very good performer and very convenient cycles.
The built in heater is great. Wouldn't have any of these low water use machines without one.
Good luck. Ours has crapped twice in 2 years. It's the WORST purchase we have ever made. We will never buy another Whirlpool and would like to set our washer and dryer on fire in our front yard.
@@DK-zu6tt Did you get a refund ? Were you under warranty ? I got a bad washer from them about 10 years ago. Maytag Bravos X. Lasted only 2 years before the control board went out.
I am now using a Whirlpool made Amana top loader which works great...so far. Anyone can get a lemon.
I would have either wrote the manufacturer to replace the machine or demanded a refund if it was still under warranty.
I bought this washer back in 2019, and I have never used the Steam Clean feature! I just wanted to ask if it is good to use?
@@Interscope100 I haven't had the machine for 4 years. It's a useful function.
Owned this washing machine for 6 months. Theses new washing machines are pretty effiecient but comes with a huge drawback. It has soo many problems. Washing machines loc on its own that even the 3 sec hold unlock button wont unlock it or unplugging it and turning of the breaker wont unlock it. U need to unlock it out of diagnostic mode which only technicians know about which i saw them do, not even tech support knows this button sequence. lots of suds problems cause not enough water thats why tide pods arent reccomended. leaking. clothes not washing properly cause it wants to be water effiecient meaning less water usage which actually means clothes dont get washed 100% properly sometimes if theres too many clothes. its loud. Ive used many many machines over the years and this one has given me more problems in 6 months than the last 20 years combined of the other machines.
Mind sharing that sequence?
What’s the sequence ?
You can't guess how long is left in the cycle and after 5 days the mf tweets and whistles it makes GET OLD. Like a MESA programming IQ test to run the damn thing (hashtag i want my analog machine back).
Me too. This machine sucks ass.
Brand new and it says 1 minute left but it took 20 minutes and it took 15 minutes to start spinning fast the first 15 minutes spins really slow and would stop then start spinning again even at the very end after it spun fast it said 0 minutes left then it started spinning slow for about 15 seconds wth. Im glad it works but damn the spin cycle makes no sense most washers just start spinning fast and its done in five minutes.
Yes. Annoying
I do know that when it stops it actually reverses it rotation direction to keep things from tangling I was told.
It because you added too many clothing fabrics and they are very wet. So it does that to absorb the water
@@mikefrank2071 HA!! My clothes like my full slips (with straps) and cotton tank tops and other strappy things end up in such a bad knot it's like trying to undo your shoe laces that someone tied in 15 knots over and over into a ball. Seriously, it takes me 20 minutes to untangle that mess and usually one or two of my cotton shirts, then has 1 sleeve that is 3 ft longer than the other because it's stretched out so bad. I have never seen a washing machine do this to clothing and don't get me started on the amount of static it puts in my clothes in every load.
I've been sitting my ugly ass up here trying to work this fancy mess and there is no manual anywhere. Apartment upgraded us but I'd rather take my chances with a washboard and a creek now. Lol. Cant get it to reset.. or hell. Start for that matter lol
Same 😭
@@OkNow86 hey buddy it's been so long since I posted this but I think what I did was unplugged it for like 2 mins for a hard reset?? Hope this helps my guy!!💪🏾💯
The manual is not much use either. It doesn't have any of the diagnostic info in it. Just great tips like "unplug the machine and plug it back in." Worthless.
LOl agree
How did we all end up on a youtube video due to the problems our washer is having. Mine won't turn on when I press the power button. I can something's turn it off at the breaker and then back on and it will start working. That is not working this time tho.
Mine keeps saying detergent low ans I know it’s not🤔
you ever figure this out ??
Can anyone say if the wfw6620hc support the fabric softener bulk dispenser as well.
I have this same washer and it keeps stopping in the middle of a wash saying low flo.... how do you fix this problem?
Check water supply
The cleaning washer light is on and all touch screen bottoms are inactive. only the power bottom. When I press on it, it counts down 3,2,1 LOC and it never starts to clean.
Same reason I came on here to find how to fix it, its stuck on clean washer 😫 did you figure it out???
I had the same problem. The motherboard needed to be replaced.
YOU HAVE TO CLEAN THE MACHINE OUT WITH AFFRESH.
Where i can buy detergent dispenser..any body knows..
Where does the liquid detergent go? And do I have to fill up that little box everytime ?
Shows in the video. Yes, add detergent with every load.
Ugh! I need to figure out how to start!
You have to keep touching the button on the far right, and the timer displays 3, 2, 1, then it will start. I hate this washer and dryer so much!
@@granniefromky , the Samsung also has touch and hold. I think they (all the brands) design that way with all the touch buttons.
Bought 6620 front loader, floor model. Where do I get a manual? Not came with & need instructions on how to get it to start/work
from the whirlpool support website
It comes with the manual if buy new. Otherwise, you can also find on its website.
i am having the problem with the door lock I now have to call for service
My Washer and Dryer same model as above worked fine until yesterday. I went to change the load and noticed on the display LOC with a red key showing. So I did a little investigation and it was recommended to cut the power for 45 minutes and or hold main button down for 3 seconds. Neither of these applications worked. Any ideas?
Did you find out on how to fix this issue? Have the same problem
Pls any solution to the LOC (control lock) error?
Michael Rosdahl what did you figure out?
There is a "Hold 3 sec for control lock". press the "extra rinse" for 3 secs..
It is locked in diagnostic mode, u have to hit a certain button sequence to unlock it. So stupid that only technicians know how to unlock it. Not even the tech support knows. luckily i watched a tech do it so i know now.
I have this machine and it suddenly stopped working it makes a beeping sound coming from the back. There is absolutely no light on tbe front panel. I disconnected the machine for a while to see if it would restart. It did for a 1/2 a day and it went black again! HELP!
We bought this washer in June of 2019. It's broke twice (expect hefty repair bills of hundreds of dollars). If you are a Millennial who lives alone, does nothing but go to your office job and play video games, maybe this will work for you. If you do dirty things (camp, hike, mountain bike, work construction, have kids who play outside or garden or anything like that) you will have to wash your clothes twice, with a 2 hour cycle each time just to get them sort of clean, using no soap the second time. This machine relies on beating the crap out of your clothes to get them clean (expect your clothes to wear out faster), because it uses next to no water and NO, there is not a way to adjust the water level whatsoever. It "senses" the "needed" water for you and I cry BS. So you cannot wash dog blankets or anything you want to really get a good swishing of water (like poopy baby clothes--hell no). You are better off to just hand wash your clothes and using this to spin them. It's just my husband and I, and our two 8lb rescue dogs who have cotton blankets that are small and the inner pad in their bed filled with loose foam and small is all we wash. We wash the pads separate from the blankets and about 2-3 small loads of clothes an linens a week and the motor went out after 2 years. The repair tech said it was from "overloading" the machine, which is laughable. My husband washes weekly: 4 work t-shirts, 2 pair of Carhart pants, 1 sweatshirt and a couple of nonwork T-shirts and one or two pairs of shorts or pants and some boxer shorts and sox. It's a modest load, and he's a 170lb guy so his clothes are not large. If you have kids, expect laundry to take twice as long, but need to wash more small loads. The idea this washer saves any water or electricity does not take into account that you cannot wash hardly anything in it (more loads) and you have to run it double cycles to get dirty clothes clean. It's a hunk of crap, and when the tech pulled the back off, the inside parts that connect the motor to the drum were rusted bad. We live in the California Central Valley in a hot/dry climate, so why the inside of the machine is rusted so bad after 2 years is beyond me. No moisture problem at all in our house or garage. We regret buying this machine so much and would love to set it on fire, riddle it withe bullets and also run it over 20 times with my husband's 4 wheeler. Also, Whirlpool is shit, they don't even have any belief that their machine will last longer than a year because their warranty is 1 year. At least Samsung and LG have a 2 year warrant. Worst purchase ever and I will never buy another Whirlpool.
I wouldn't give LG or Samsung my money. Just goes to make the economy of South Korea stronger.
@@patcola7335 I wonder how you feel about your friends and relatives who have nice things.
@@nothingheard I'm not jealous of anybody who has nice things because I also was blessed with nice things. The point is if I have a choice to buy from a U.S based company and I live in the U.S., don't you think I should ? Don't you try to things or support businesses from the place where you live work and play when you can ?
@@patcola7335 The way you worded it sounded like South Korea did something wrong or their economy flourishing would be a bad thing.
Yes, it's good to support local businesses but for a good cause not to simply prevent other businesses from making profit.
I sure didn't expect any propaganda about the USA "being /staying in power".
@@nothingheard It's not how the world works unfortunately. Businesses compete with each other and it would be in my best interest to make the best products I could to keep people coming back.
Once again though why would I a U.S.citizen want to support another country's economy when I have the same product made here ?
I think wherever you are from it's important to support the local companies and the nation you are from..when you can.
As much as the powers that be are trying to make this a one world Utopia it will never happen as long as there is sin still in this world.
Does it buzz when cycle is complete?
It does a signal when it's done. Kind of like a chime I guess.
I can’t hear it unless in laundry room.
No it's a dingly sound. Annoying.
How do I get the machine to start again, when it displays Loc with a red key
"hold 3 sec for control lock". there is something like that in front of the machine. Press the "Extra Rinse" for 3 secs and it will removed the red key.
mAki THANK YOU! Was abt to reset the breaker just to get this gone 🤦🏾♀️
@@mAki-mq4cr Just held the "Extra Rinse" for countdown 3 sec and that solved the problem, red key gone. Thanks
@@Boydrkb Thanks.
It's locked. You have to unlock it
My cloths stink immediately after each use! What am I doing wrong?! Thanks
@nolan scire Front load washers can develop mold and mildew if they are not allowed to dry out completely after each wash. The best thing to do is to leave the door and dispenser tray open after you're done washing. You may also want to run a cleaning tablet though yours to see if that helps: bit.ly/3zGsxm4. Removing and cleaning off the detergent dispenser drawer can help too. Another thing to keep in mind is that you don't need to use nearly as much washing detergent in a front load unit. Hopefully these suggestions help with the issue.
How do you unlock washer
I bought this washer and have had nothing but issues. Its only 4 months old. Already broken
@Justin Martin. If it was purchased from Abt please contact us so we can help resolve the issues: www.abt.com/help/contact-us
@@abtelectronics no, not from you guys no worries there. I wouldnt reccomend this washer to anyone though.
Can someone help me? Mine says pf and won’t go away or let me do anything ?
Like means "power failure" Unplug it for a few minutes and plug it back in. Seriously, this will fix it.
I myself bought this whirlpool washer and dryer combo from Lowes in Ocala Fl. not even 2 years and the problem i am having right now, is that the control board is locked and i have tried everything that they told me to do but that does not work. Not sure how i can get it to deactivate. and it is so expensive., not sure what to do. Can anyone help Please?
@user-un8od8ck3w If your display isn't showing an error, you should be able to deactivate the lock by holding the lock button for 3 seconds. If that is not working, try pressing the power button first, then touch and hold the lock button. If neither works, you may want to consider unplugging the washer for a few minutes to reset the processor.
Loc is flashing! How to reset?
Unplug it
I was washing a pair of shoes it may had way to much soap .. a lot of suds in the washer.. now I have a code Loc and I’ve tried about everything and can not get it to clear.. I’ve held each button fo4 3 seconds and nothing I’ve unplugged it and nothing.. any ideas ??? I would now like a different washing machine now ...only use this washer 25 times since I bought it and the dryer is having issues as well all kinds of dinging / bells unreal...
How do you unlock it
When you find out please let me know i have the same problem with mine
But how the hell to you unlock it when it becomes unsmart! Which it does all the time!!!
It would be helpful to not have the voiceover so that we can hear the sounds the machine makes!
it’s just soft beeping chimes. if you want to hear the noises look up (deans washer videos whirlpool) it’s a different machine but makes the same sounds.
How do I get the steam button to work. I hit it and it won't light up?
Have to have it on a high temp
Can you use tied pods
yes but apparently not reccomended since its so concentrated. Ull get a suds issue in the future.
Yes, you can use pods. However, it occasionally demands a clean cycle and all hell breaks loose after that experience. It won't switch off of "load and go", it thinks there is no detergent in the manual dispenser. I'm going to have to change my detergent preference because of this stupid machine. I'm trying to lessen the amount of plastic I purchase but evidently Whirlpool have an interest in liquid detergent from a plastic bottle (that is mostly water). I've read articles from others saying the "load and go" leaks, so you may want to do more research.
How do I stop the machine to add a garment once the cycle starts ? Tku
Hi Denise Kornblatt! To stop the machine to add clothes once it starts all you do is press the start button, which is also the pause button. You will hear a noise notifying you it is ok to open and put your extra clothes in! If you have further questions please feel free to reach out to us at 800-860-3736 and one of our experts is happy to help. Thanks for watching!
@@abtelectronics I tried to just press once and I got it to pause. The lock light was blinking but it never opened for me to add a garment even thought it was early in cycle and the light still said “Add garment “. Puzzling. Tku thought so much for answering me so quickly!
I have this washer & HATE IT!! If you have allergies or pets this is not the washer for you. It uses almost no water even on a heavy duty cycle. I've had mine 18 months paid about $3,500 (bought pedestals) & it is now for sale & I have a Speed Queen Classic on order! It takes 2hrs 19min for heavy duty load of towels to wash. So anyone looking for a FL washer skip this one.
What it saves in water, it uses up in electricity! Clothes don’t get clean with about a gallon of water, so it has to wash 2 hours! It is an expensive piece of garbage.I am a single senior, used it for a year, then it quit. For over a year, I’ve been washing by hand. There aren’t any laundromats in this county.
Frontload Washers do not use much water. If it uses too much water, that can damage the machine.
it sucks😭 it locks by itself. won’t fully wash my clothes and it’ll still end up wet
🌊🌊🌊🌊💦
My whirlpool is leaking water
@buddhagurung4721 That can be caused by a number of issues. Have you had a service technician come out to diagnose it? If it was purchased from Abt please contact us at 800-860-3736 so we can help.
Nothing but issues with this washer time stays the same. Now it won't do the spin cycle so the close stays wet . Only lasted a year.
I have this set and they suck dont buy them id rather get the samsung set
@excdalmt7807 If you purchased from Abt and you're unhappy with the units please give us a call at 800-860-3736 so we can try to come up with a solution. We have a 30 day return period on most items purchased from our store.
this shit is so confusing to use man
