Aire acondicionado Reparar
Whirlpool fabrica electrodomésticos en los que los propietarios han llegado a confiar. Sin embargo, incluso un electrodoméstico de confianza requiere un mantenimiento o reparación ocasional. Si necesita una reparación de electrodomésticos Whirlpool por parte de profesionales experimentados, su Ayudante de Electrodomésticos local puede ayudarle.
Filtro de aire
Si el filtro de aire está obstruido, el aire no puede fluir correctamente a través del acondicionador de aire. Esto reduce en gran medida la capacidad de refrigeración del aire acondicionado. Además, si el filtro de aire está obstruido, las bobinas del evaporador se congelarán. Para eliminar los residuos del filtro de aire, intente limpiar el filtro. Si no es posible limpiar el filtro de aire, sustitúyalo.
Los serpentines del condensador están sucios
Los serpentines del condensador disipan el calor cuando el refrigerante pasa por ellos. Si los serpentines del condensador están sucios, no podrán disipar el calor con la misma eficacia. A medida que los residuos se acumulan en las bobinas, el aire acondicionado será menos eficiente, haciendo que el aire acondicionado trabaje más para enfriar. Si las bobinas están muy sucias, el aire acondicionado no podrá mantener la temperatura adecuada, y el compresor funcionará continuamente en un intento de enfriar la habitaciĂłn. Compruebe las bobinas del condensador para determinar si están sucias. Si las bobinas del condensador están sucias, lĂmpielas.
Compresor
El compresor puede estar defectuoso. Sin embargo, este no suele ser el caso. Antes de sustituir el compresor, asegúrese de comprobar los componentes más comúnmente defectuosos, en particular el protector de sobrecarga y el condensador del compresor. Si el compresor está defectuoso, sólo debe ser sustituido por un técnico autorizado.
Termostato
El termostato controla la temperatura del aire. Cuando la temperatura del aire se eleva por encima de un punto de ajuste, el termostato activa un interruptor para proporcionar energĂa al ventilador y al compresor. Si el termostato está defectuoso, es posible que no enfrĂe correctamente. Para determinar si el termostato está defectuoso, ponga el aire acondicionado en refrigeraciĂłn y luego use un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad del termostato. Si el termostato no tiene continuidad mientras el acondicionador de aire está ajustado en refrigeraciĂłn, sustituya el termostato. (Nota: Algunos termostatos tambiĂ©n pueden controlar un calentador y, por lo tanto, tendrán tres terminales. Consulte el diagrama de cableado de su acondicionador de aire para obtener más informaciĂłn).
Placa de control
La placa de control regula la tensión del compresor y del motor del ventilador. Si la placa de control falla, algunos componentes no funcionarán correctamente o no funcionarán en absoluto. Los tableros de control son a menudo mal diagnosticados; asegúrese de revisar primero las partes más comúnmente defectuosas antes de reemplazar el tablero de control.
Placa de control principal
La placa de control principal regula la tensión del compresor y del motor del ventilador. Si la placa de control principal falla, algunos componentes no funcionarán correctamente o no funcionarán en absoluto. Las tarjetas de control principal a menudo se diagnostican de forma errónea; asegúrese de comprobar primero las piezas defectuosas más comunes antes de sustituir la tarjeta de control principal.
Calentador de agua Reparar
Para el hogar, la cocina y más allá, Whirlpool fabrica electrodomésticos en los que los propietarios han llegado a confiar. Sin embargo, incluso un electrodoméstico de confianza requiere un mantenimiento o reparación ocasional. Si necesita una reparación de electrodomésticos Whirlpool por parte de profesionales experimentados, su Ayudante de Electrodomésticos local puede ayudarle.
Sin agua caliente
Un calentador de agua elĂ©ctrico reciĂ©n instalado puede tardar varias horas en alcanzar la temperatura normal de funcionamiento. Si no tiene agua caliente despuĂ©s de dos horas (el agua ni siquiera está caliente), primero compruebe que el calentador de agua recibe energĂa elĂ©ctrica. El hecho de que no reciba energĂa es una razĂłn comĂşn para que los calentadores de agua nuevos no funcionen.
Fugas de agua
Con un nuevo calentador de agua, la mayorĂa de las fugas son causadas por fugas en las conexiones de la salida de agua caliente o la entrada de agua frĂa. Ocasionalmente, se pueden encontrar fugas procedentes de un accesorio (como alrededor de la válvula de alivio de temperatura y presiĂłn) o alrededor de uno de los elementos de calefacciĂłn. Los racores con fugas suelen poder apretarse o repararse. Es extremadamente raro que un tanque nuevo tenga fugas.
Gotas de agua
Si se observan gotas procedentes de la tuberĂa de descarga de la válvula de alivio de temperatura y presiĂłn, es posible que la presiĂłn del agua de la casa sea demasiado alta o que se necesite un tanque de expansiĂłn tĂ©rmica.
PresiĂłn del agua
Compruebe la presiĂłn del agua de su casa con un manĂłmetro. La presiĂłn de agua recomendada es de 50 a 60 PSIG. Si la presiĂłn es más alta que eso, instale una válvula reguladora de presiĂłn (o ajuste su válvula reguladora de presiĂłn existente si tiene una). Si tiene problemas de presiĂłn de agua, consulte a su empresa local de suministro de agua o a un fontanero cualificado. La mayorĂa de los cĂłdigos de fontanerĂa requieren una válvula reguladora de presiĂłn si la presiĂłn del agua es superior a 80 PSIG.
Comprobación de la potencia eléctrica
Para comprobar la potencia, apague el disyuntor marcado como "calentador de agua" (o retire los fusibles). Retire el panel de acceso superior del calentador de agua. Retire con cuidado el aislamiento y la cubierta de plástico. Identifique los cables de alimentación. Normalmente, éstos se conectan a los dos tornillos superiores del termostato superior. Vuelva a conectar el disyuntor y compruebe si hay tensión en los dos tornillos superiores del termostato superior.
Depósito de expansión térmica
Cuando el agua se calienta, se expande. En los hogares más antiguos, el agua expandida se devuelve a la red de agua. Hoy en dĂa, la mayorĂa de los hogares tienen válvulas de prevenciĂłn de reflujo que impiden que el agua de su casa vuelva a entrar en el suministro de agua. Un depĂłsito de expansiĂłn tĂ©rmica tiene una cámara de aire interna que puede absorber el agua expandida, protegiendo las tuberĂas, los electrodomĂ©sticos y el calentador de agua. Por estas razones, la mayorĂa de los hogares necesitan ahora un tanque de expansiĂłn tĂ©rmica (y una válvula reguladora de presiĂłn correctamente ajustada). No tener un tanque de expansiĂłn tĂ©rmica es la razĂłn más comĂşn para una tuberĂa de descarga que gotea.
Distancia Reparar
Para el hogar, la cocina y más allá, Whirlpool fabrica electrodomésticos en los que los propietarios han llegado a confiar. Sin embargo, incluso un electrodoméstico de confianza requiere un mantenimiento o reparación ocasional. Si necesita una reparación de electrodomésticos Whirlpool por parte de profesionales experimentados, su Ayudante de Electrodomésticos local puede ayudarle.
El Horno Whirlpool no calienta.
Interruptor. El encendedor es la pieza más comĂşnmente defectuosa para un horno que no calienta. El encendedor tiene dos funciones principales. En primer lugar, el encendedor toma corriente elĂ©ctrica a travĂ©s de la válvula de seguridad del horno para abrirla. En segundo lugar, el encendedor se calienta lo suficiente como para brillar y encender el gas en el quemador del horno. Si el encendedor se debilita, no podrá abrir la válvula de seguridad correctamente. Si la válvula no se abre, el horno no se calentará. Para determinar si el encendedor está defectuoso, observe el encendedor cuando el horno está encendido. Si el encendedor brilla durante más de 90 segundos sin encender la llama de gas, esto indica que el encendedor es demasiado dĂ©bil para abrir la válvula. Si el encendedor es dĂ©bil, sustitĂşyalo. Si el encendedor no brilla en absoluto, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad del encendedor. Si el encendedor no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo.
El horno de hidromasaje no hornea uniformemente.
Elemento de cocciĂłn. Si el elemento de horneado está quemado, el horno sĂłlo se calentará con el elemento de asado. Esto hará que el horno se caliente de forma desigual. Cuando el elemento de cocciĂłn se está calentando correctamente, se ilumina en rojo. Si el elemento no brilla en rojo, esto indica que el elemento no está calentando. A menudo, si el elemento se ha quemado, estará visiblemente dañado. Inspeccione el elemento de cocciĂłn en busca de agujeros o ampollas. Para determinar si el elemento de cocciĂłn se ha quemado, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad del elemento. Si el elemento de cocciĂłn no tiene continuidad, reemplácelo.
La parrilla del horno de hidromasaje no funciona.
Elemento de cocciĂłn. El elemento de la parrilla puede haberse quemado. Cuando el elemento de la parrilla se está calentando correctamente, se ilumina en rojo. Si el elemento no brilla en rojo, esto indica que el elemento no está calentando. A menudo, si el elemento se ha quemado, estará visiblemente dañado. Inspeccione el elemento de asado para ver si tiene agujeros o ampollas. Para determinar si la resistencia se ha quemado, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de la resistencia. Si el elemento de asado no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo.
La resistencia de la estufa de hidromasaje no funciona.
Tablero del elemento de superficie. El tablero del elemento de superficie tiene relĂ©s que regulan el suministro de energĂa a los quemadores. Si uno o más de los relĂ©s fallan, el elemento de superficie no funcionará. Si dos o más quemadores fallan al mismo tiempo, esto indica que el tablero del elemento de superficie es probablemente el culpable. Si sĂłlo un elemento de superficie no funciona, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad del elemento. Si el elemento de superficie tiene continuidad, la placa del elemento de superficie podrĂa estar defectuosa.
El quemador de la estufa de hidromasaje no se enciende.
MĂłdulo de chispa. El mĂłdulo de chispa proporciona energĂa a cada electrodo de chispa del quemador de superficie. Si el quemador produce una chispa dĂ©bil, o si el quemador chispea intermitentemente, el mĂłdulo de chispa podrĂa estar defectuoso. Antes de sustituir el mĂłdulo de chispa, compruebe primero el electrodo de chispa y el cable de chispa. Si el electrodo de chispa y el cable de chispa no están defectuosos, es probable que el mĂłdulo de chispa estĂ© defectuoso. Si el mĂłdulo de chispa está defectuoso, sustitĂşyalo.
La temperatura del horno de hidromasaje no es exacta.
Elemento de cocciĂłn. Cuando el elemento de cocciĂłn se está calentando correctamente, se ilumina en rojo. Si el elemento no brilla en rojo, esto indica que el elemento no está calentando. A menudo, si la resistencia se ha quemado, estará visiblemente dañada. Inspeccione el elemento calefactor en busca de agujeros o ampollas. Para determinar si la resistencia se ha quemado, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de la resistencia. Si el elemento de cocciĂłn no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo.
La luz del horno de hidromasaje está apagada.
Conjunto de luces. Si la luz del horno está apagada, es posible que sea necesario reemplazar todo el conjunto de la luz. A menudo los componentes del conjunto de la luz no se venden por separado.
El horno de Whirlpool no se enciende.
Elemento de cocciĂłn. Cuando el elemento de horneado se está calentando correctamente, brilla en rojo. Si el elemento no brilla en rojo, esto indica que el elemento no está calentando. A menudo, si la resistencia se ha quemado, estará visiblemente dañada. Inspeccione el elemento calefactor en busca de agujeros o ampollas. Para determinar si la resistencia se ha quemado, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de la resistencia. Si el elemento de cocciĂłn no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo.
Horno de hidromasaje no autolimpiable.
Motor de bloqueo de la puerta y conjunto del interruptor. Durante el ciclo de autolimpieza del horno, el interruptor de bloqueo de la puerta activa el motor de bloqueo de la puerta para evitar que se abra la puerta del horno. Si el motor de bloqueo de la puerta y el interruptor están defectuosos, la puerta del horno no se desbloqueará una vez que el ciclo de autolimpieza se haya completado. En la mayorĂa de los hornos, usted puede abrir la puerta del horno retirando ciertos tornillos o paneles. Consulte el manual del propietario para obtener más instrucciones.
El horno de Whirlpool no se apaga.
Placa de control del horno. El tablero de control del horno tiene relĂ©s que envĂan voltaje a los circuitos de horneado y asado de acuerdo con la configuraciĂłn del usuario y la entrada del sensor. Si uno de los relĂ©s del tablero de control se cierra en cortocircuito, el tablero de control puede enviar voltaje continuo al circuito de calentamiento. Si el horno sigue calentando despuĂ©s de apagarlo, es probable que la tarjeta de control estĂ© defectuosa. Si la placa de control está defectuosa, sustitĂşyala.
El elemento de superficie del horno de hidromasaje no se apaga.
Interruptor del elemento de superficie. El interruptor del elemento de superficie envĂa tensiĂłn a la bobina del elemento de superficie. A veces, cuando el interruptor del elemento de superficie falla, los contactos elĂ©ctricos dentro del interruptor se fusionan, haciendo que el interruptor envĂe voltaje continuo al elemento de superficie. Si el interruptor del elemento de superficie está defectuoso, sustitĂşyalo.
El ventilador del horno de hidromasaje no se apaga.
Placa de control del horno. El tablero de control del horno tiene relĂ©s que regulan la energĂa a los circuitos de horneado, asado y ventilador de acuerdo con los ajustes del usuario y la entrada del sensor. Si uno de estos relĂ©s se cortocircuita, la placa de control puede enviar tensiĂłn continua al ventilador del horno. Sin embargo, esto no suele ocurrir. Antes de sustituir la placa de control, compruebe primero los termostatos del horno. Si un termostato del horno falla, puede hacer que el ventilador del horno funcione continuamente.
Los quemadores de la cocina de hidromasaje chispean todo el tiempo.
Interruptor de encendido de chispas. Uno de los interruptores de encendido por chispa podrĂa estar defectuoso. El interruptor de encendido por chispa envĂa tensiĂłn al mĂłdulo de chispa. Cuando los contactos elĂ©ctricos dentro del interruptor se cierran, la energĂa fluye al mĂłdulo de chispa. Si el interruptor de encendido de chispa falla con los contactos elĂ©ctricos cerrados, el interruptor enviará tensiĂłn continua al mĂłdulo de chispa. Para determinar si alguno de los interruptores de encendido de chispa está defectuoso, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de cada uno de los interruptores. Si un interruptor de encendido de chispa muestra continuidad en todos los ajustes, reemplácelo.
Horno Reparar
Whirlpool fabrica electrodomésticos en los que los propietarios han llegado a confiar. Sin embargo, incluso un electrodoméstico de confianza requiere un mantenimiento o reparación ocasional. Si necesita una reparación de electrodomésticos Whirlpool por parte de profesionales experimentados, su Ayudante de Electrodomésticos local puede ayudarle.
IgniciĂłn
La igniciĂłn se calienta mucho y brilla de color naranja brillante para encender el quemador de gas. Si el encendedor falla o se agrieta, el horno no calentará. Para determinar si el encendedor está defectuoso, retire el encendedor e inspecciĂłnelo en busca de grietas. Si el encendedor está agrietado, sustitĂşyalo. Si el encendedor no está agrietado, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad del encendedor. Si el encendedor no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo.
Sensor de llama
El sensor de llama controla el quemador para detectar si hay o no llama. Si el sensor de llama está defectuoso, podrĂa no detectar una llama. Si el sensor de llama no detecta una llama, la placa de control cortará la tensiĂłn a la válvula de gas para evitar que el horno se caliente. A veces, si el sensor de llama está sucio, no detectará la llama. Intente limpiar el sensor de llama con una almohadilla abrasiva fina. Si el horno sigue sin calentar, sustituya el sensor de llama.
Motor del inductor de tiro
El motor del inductor de tiro introduce aire en el intercambiador de calor y luego lo expulsa por la chimenea. El presostato detecta un cambio de presión y cierra un interruptor para indicar a la placa de control que el horno tiene un flujo de aire adecuado. Si el motor del inductor de tiro está defectuoso, puede ser incapaz de cerrar el interruptor de presión, haciendo que el proceso de encendido se detenga y el horno se apague después de unos minutos. Si el proceso de encendido se detiene, el horno se apagará. Si el motor del inductor de tiro está averiado, sustitúyalo.
Placa de control
La placa de control regula el suministro de energĂa a todos los componentes del horno. Si la placa de control falla, podrĂa no enviar tensiĂłn al sistema de encendido, haciendo que el horno no se caliente.
Interruptor de lĂmite de apagado de llama
El interruptor de apagado de llama controla el calor que rodea a los quemadores. Si el motor del ventilador del inductor no puede aspirar suficiente aire a travĂ©s de los quemadores, o si el horno no está ventilando correctamente, el interruptor de apagado de llama se abrirá para detener la secuencia de encendido y evitar que el horno se caliente. Para determinar si el interruptor de apagado de llama está defectuoso, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar su continuidad. Si el interruptor no tiene continuidad y el botĂłn de reinicio no se dispara, reemplácelo. Tenga en cuenta que un flujo de aire deficiente a travĂ©s del quemador es a menudo el resultado de una ventilaciĂłn insuficiente o de un conducto de escape restringido. AsegĂşrese de que su horno está en un lugar bien ventilado y de que el conducto de escape está libre de obstrucciones.
Termostato de pared
El termostato de pared tiene contactos elĂ©ctricos que controlan el suministro de energĂa al horno. Si los contactos del termostato fallan, el horno no se encenderá. Para determinar si el termostato está defectuoso, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar su continuidad. Si el termostato de pared no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo.
Lavadora Reparar
Para el hogar, la cocina y más allá, Whirlpool fabrica electrodomésticos en los que los propietarios han llegado a confiar. Sin embargo, incluso un electrodoméstico de confianza requiere un mantenimiento o reparación ocasional. Si necesita una reparación de electrodomésticos Whirlpool por parte de profesionales experimentados, su Ayudante de Electrodomésticos local puede ayudarle.
La lavadora Whirlpool no gira.
Conjunto del interruptor de la tapa. El conjunto del interruptor de la tapa impide que la lavadora gire cuando la tapa está abierta. Si el conjunto del interruptor de la tapa falla, la lavadora no girará. Para determinar si el conjunto del interruptor de la tapa está defectuoso, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad del interruptor de la tapa. Si el interruptor de la tapa no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo.
La lavadora de hidromasaje hace un ruido fuerte durante el ciclo de lavado.
Rodamiento. El cojinete de la bañera está montado en el centro de la bañera exterior. El cojinete de la bañera ayuda a mantener la bañera interior girando suavemente. La sustitución del cojinete de la cuba es una reparación muy complicada y requerirá el desmontaje de la mayor parte de la lavadora. Si el cojinete de la cuba está defectuoso, recomendamos sustituir tanto la cuba exterior como el cojinete.
La lavadora de hidromasaje no agita.
Juego de reparación del agitador. Si la lavadora no agita, la sustitución del kit de reparación del agitador puede resolver el problema. El kit contiene los componentes del agitador que tienen más probabilidades de desgastarse y/o fallar. Si alguna de las piezas está desgastada, despojada o dañada, sustituya el kit.
La lavadora de hidromasaje no desagua.
Bomba de desagĂĽe. A veces, pequeños objetos o artĂculos de ropa pueden quedar atrapados en la bomba de desagĂĽe. Para determinar si algo está bloqueando la bomba de desagĂĽe, retire la bomba de desagĂĽe y compruebe si hay obstrucciones en la bomba. Si la bomba de desagĂĽe está libre de obstrucciones, pero sigue siendo ruidosa durante el ciclo de desagĂĽe, sustituya la bomba de desagĂĽe.
La lavadora de hidromasaje vibra o se agita.
Amortiguador. Uno o más de los amortiguadores pueden estar rotos o desgastados. Los amortiguadores amortiguan la vibración de la cuba de la lavadora. Si uno o más de los amortiguadores están desgastados, la lavadora vibrará o se sacudirá. A veces, cuando se traslada la lavadora a otro lugar, los amortiguadores pueden separarse. Compruebe los amortiguadores para asegurarse de que están colocados correctamente, e inspecciónelos en busca de daños y desgaste. Si uno o más de los amortiguadores están rotos o desgastados, recomendamos sustituir todos los amortiguadores como medida preventiva.
La lavadora de hidromasaje se llena lentamente o no se llena en absoluto.
Válvula de entrada de agua. La válvula de entrada de agua se abre para permitir que el agua entre en la lavadora. Si la válvula de entrada de agua está defectuosa, la lavadora puede llenarse lentamente o no llenarse en absoluto. La válvula de entrada de agua requiere una presión de agua suficiente para funcionar correctamente. En primer lugar, compruebe la presión del agua para determinar si es adecuada. Si la presión del agua es adecuada, intente limpiar las rejillas del interior de los puertos de conexión de la manguera de la válvula de entrada de agua. Si la lavadora sigue llenándose lentamente, sustituya la válvula de entrada de agua.
La lavadora de hidromasaje tiene una fuga.
La bomba de desagüe bombea agua por la manguera de desagüe. Si la bomba de desagüe está agrietada o dañada, o si los cojinetes están desgastados, la bomba de desagüe puede perder agua. La bomba de drenaje no se puede reparar si la bomba pierde agua, reemplácela.
La lavadora de hidromasaje no arranca.
Temporizador. El temporizador es frecuentemente mal diagnosticado antes de reemplazar el temporizador, primero revise todas las partes más comĂşnmente defectuosas. Para determinar si el temporizador está defectuoso, consulte el diagrama de cableado de su lavadora y utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad del temporizador.
La lavadora Whirlpool no centrifuga ni agita.
Correa de transmisión. Inspeccione la correa de transmisión para determinar si está rota o si está suelta en las poleas. Si la correa de transmisión está rota o suelta, sustitúyala.
La lavadora de hidromasaje se desborda.
Válvula de entrada de agua. Pruebe a cortar la corriente de la lavadora mientras ésta se llena de agua. Si la lavadora sigue llenándose de agua aunque no reciba corriente, esto indica que la válvula de entrada de agua está defectuosa. Si la válvula de entrada de agua está defectuosa, sustitúyala.
La puerta o la tapa de la lavadora de hidromasaje no se bloquea.
Motor de la cerradura de la puerta y conjunto del interruptor. El bloqueo de la puerta asegura el cierre de la puerta de la lavadora durante el funcionamiento. Una vez que la puerta de la lavadora está cerrada, la lavadora puede comenzar a funcionar. Si la cerradura de la puerta está defectuosa, la puerta de la lavadora no se cerrará correctamente. La cerradura de la puerta puede fallar mecánica o elĂ©ctricamente. Inspeccione la cerradura de la puerta para ver si está dañada. Si la cerradura de la puerta está dañada o no se traba correctamente, reemplácela. Para determinar si la cerradura de la puerta ha fallado elĂ©ctricamente, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de cada uno de los interruptores de la cerradura de la puerta. Si uno de los interruptores no tiene continuidad, reemplace el interruptor.
Lavadora de hidromasaje se detiene a mitad de ciclo.

El microondas Whirlpool no calienta.
Diodo. El diodo convierte la salida de energĂa A/C del transformador en D/C, duplicando el voltaje a casi 5.000 voltios. Este alto voltaje alimenta el magnetrĂłn para calentar los alimentos. Si el diodo se quema, el magnetrĂłn no recibe suficiente voltaje para funcionar, impidiendo que el microondas se caliente. Cuando el diodo falla, suele estar visiblemente quemado. Inspeccione el diodo y, si está quemado, sustitĂşyalo. Si la inspecciĂłn del diodo no es concluyente, pruĂ©belo con un multĂmetro que utilice una pila de 9 voltios o ponga una pila de 9 voltios en serie con el diodo. Cuando se invierten los cables, el diodo sĂłlo debe tener continuidad en una direcciĂłn. (Advertencia: El horno microondas puede almacenar una cantidad letal de electricidad en su condensador de alto voltaje, incluso despuĂ©s de que el horno microondas haya sido desenchufado. Debido a la alta tensiĂłn de funcionamiento y a la posibilidad de sufrir una descarga elĂ©ctrica, es extremadamente peligroso sustituir los componentes electrĂłnicos de un microondas. SĂłlo un tĂ©cnico autorizado debe sustituir el diodo).
El microondas de Whirlpool no funciona.
Fusible de lĂnea. Si pasa demasiada corriente por el circuito del microondas, el fusible de lĂnea se fundirá. Si el fusible de lĂnea se funde, el microondas no arranca. Para determinar si el fusible de lĂnea está averiado, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar su continuidad. Si el fusible no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo. Además, debe investigar y resolver el problema que ha provocado la rotura del fusible. Si no resuelve el problema subyacente, el nuevo fusible tambiĂ©n se fundirá. (PrecauciĂłn: El horno microondas puede almacenar miles de voltios de electricidad en su condensador de alto voltaje, incluso despuĂ©s de que el horno microondas haya sido desenchufado. Debido al potencial de descarga elĂ©ctrica, es extremadamente peligroso reemplazar los componentes electrĂłnicos de un microondas. SĂłlo un tĂ©cnico autorizado debe reemplazar el fusible de lĂnea).
La bombilla del microondas Whirlpool no funciona.
Bombilla. La propia bombilla puede estar quemada. Reemplace la bombilla antes de reemplazar cualquiera de las partes asociadas con la bombilla
El microondas de Whirlpool se apaga después de algunos segundos.
Interruptor de la puerta. Un interruptor de puerta podrĂa estar fallando intermitentemente. Compruebe cada uno de los interruptores de la puerta para ver si hay signos de sobrecalentamiento, formaciĂłn de arcos o quemaduras. Si no ve ningĂşn signo evidente de fallo, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de cada interruptor.

La pantalla del microondas Whirlpool no funciona.
Placa de control principal. Si la pantalla se apaga parcialmente, el tablero de la pantalla es más comĂşnmente el culpable. Si la pantalla no funciona en absoluto, la placa de control principal o la placa de la pantalla podrĂan ser las culpables.
El microondas de Whirlpool se enciende solo.
Placa de control principal. En primer lugar, asegúrese de que el panel táctil funciona correctamente. Si el panel táctil funciona correctamente, es probable que la placa de control principal sea la culpable. Si la placa de control está defectuosa, reemplácela.
El microondas de Whirlpool produce chispas o arcos eléctricos.
Cubierta de la guĂa de ondas. La cubierta de la guĂa de ondas podrĂa estar dañada y en cortocircuito. Intente quitar la cubierta de la guĂa de ondas y vea si el problema se resuelve. Si la cubierta de la guĂa de ondas está quemada o no se mantiene en su sitio, sustitĂşyala.
La puerta del microondas de Whirlpool no se abre.
Gancho de la puerta. El gancho de la puerta encaja con el pestillo de la puerta para mantener la puerta cerrada durante el funcionamiento. Dado que el gancho de la puerta está hecho de plástico, puede romperse debido al desgaste regular. Si el gancho de la puerta está roto, no liberará la puerta correctamente, impidiendo que la puerta se abra. Si el gancho de la puerta está roto, sustitúyalo.
El extractor del microondas de Whirlpool no funciona.
Motor del ventilador de escape. Para determinar si el motor del ventilador está defectuoso, retire el motor del ventilador del microondas e intente girar las aspas del ventilador con la mano. Si las aspas no giran libremente, sustituya el motor del ventilador. Si las aspas del ventilador giran libremente, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la alimentaciĂłn y la continuidad del motor. Si el motor tiene corriente pero no funciona, sustitĂşyalo. Si el motor no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo.
El microondas Whirlpool es ruidoso o hace ruido.
MagnetrĂłn. El magnetrĂłn utiliza energĂa de CC de alto voltaje y alta corriente para generar la frecuencia de microondas que cocina los alimentos. En circunstancias normales, el magnetrĂłn emite un zumbido bajo. Sin embargo, si el magnetrĂłn está dañado o casi quemado, puede empezar a emitir sonidos agudos o gruñidos. Si el magnetrĂłn es ruidoso, esto indica que el magnetrĂłn se está acercando al final de su vida Ăştil o podrĂa estar defectuoso. Un diodo de alto voltaje defectuoso tambiĂ©n puede hacer que el magnetrĂłn sea ruidoso. Antes de sustituir el magnetrĂłn, compruebe primero el diodo de alta tensiĂłn. Si el diodo no está defectuoso, sustituya el magnetrĂłn. (Advertencia: El horno microondas puede almacenar una cantidad letal de electricidad en su condensador de alto voltaje, incluso despuĂ©s de que el horno microondas haya sido desenchufado. Debido a la alta tensiĂłn de funcionamiento y a la posibilidad de sufrir una descarga elĂ©ctrica, es extremadamente peligroso sustituir los componentes electrĂłnicos de un microondas. SĂłlo un tĂ©cnico autorizado debe sustituir el magnetrĂłn).
Refrigerador Reparar
Para el hogar, la cocina y más allá, Whirlpool fabrica electrodomésticos en los que los propietarios han llegado a confiar. Sin embargo, incluso un electrodoméstico de confianza requiere un mantenimiento o reparación ocasional. Si necesita una reparación de electrodomésticos Whirlpool por parte de profesionales experimentados, su Ayudante de Electrodomésticos local puede ayudarle.
El frigorĂfico Whirlpool no enfrĂa.
Motor del ventilador del condensador. El motor del ventilador del condensador aspira el aire a travĂ©s de las bobinas del condensador y sobre el compresor. Si el motor del ventilador del condensador no funciona correctamente, el frigorĂfico no enfriará bien. Para determinar si el motor del ventilador está defectuoso, compruebe primero si las aspas del ventilador están obstruidas. A continuaciĂłn, intente girar el aspa del motor del ventilador con la mano. Si el aspa no gira libremente, sustituya el motor del ventilador del condensador. Si no hay obstrucciones y el aspa del ventilador gira libremente, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad del motor del ventilador. Si el motor del ventilador del condensador no tiene continuidad, sustitĂşyalo.
El dispensador de agua de la bañera no funciona.
Válvula de entrada de agua. La válvula de entrada de agua se abre para suministrar agua al dispensador. Si la válvula de entrada de agua está defectuosa, o si la presiĂłn del agua es demasiado baja, la válvula de agua no se abrirá. La válvula requiere al menos 20 psi para funcionar correctamente. AsegĂşrese de que la presiĂłn del agua que llega a la válvula es de al menos 20 psi. Si la presiĂłn del agua es suficiente, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de la válvula de entrada de agua. Si la válvula de entrada de agua no tiene continuidad, reemplácela.
La máquina de hielo de Whirlpool no funciona.
Válvula de entrada de agua. La válvula de entrada de agua es una válvula controlada elĂ©ctricamente que se abre para suministrar agua al dispensador y al fabricador de hielo. Si la válvula de entrada de agua está defectuosa, o si no tiene suficiente presiĂłn, no permitirá que el agua fluya. Como resultado, el productor de hielo no producirá hielo. La válvula requiere al menos 20 psi para funcionar correctamente. AsegĂşrese de que la presiĂłn del agua que llega a la válvula es de al menos 20 psi. Si la presiĂłn del agua es suficiente, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la alimentaciĂłn de la válvula de entrada de agua. Si la válvula de entrada de agua tiene suficiente presiĂłn y recibe energĂa, pero el productor de hielo no se llena de agua para hacer hielo, reemplace la válvula de entrada de agua.
El fabricador de hielo del frigorĂfico de Whirlpool no dispensa hielo.
Placa de control del dispensador. El tablero de control del dispensador gobierna la mayorĂa de las funciones del sistema del dispensador. Si la placa de control está defectuosa, puede dejar de suministrar energĂa a todo el sistema dispensador. Si sĂłlo una parte del dispensador no funciona, pruebe cada uno de los componentes del dispensador antes de probar el tablero de control. Es más probable que una sola pieza haya fallado. Si todo el sistema dispensador no funciona, es más probable que la placa de control sea la culpable.
El frigorĂfico de Whirlpool no se descongela.
Placa de control de descongelaciĂłn. La placa de control de descongelaciĂłn determina la frecuencia con la que se debe ejecutar el ciclo de descongelaciĂłn. Si la placa falla, el frigorĂfico no entrará en el ciclo de descongelaciĂłn. Antes de reemplazar la tarjeta de control de descongelamiento, primero pruebe el calentador de descongelamiento y el termostato de descongelamiento. Si el calentador de descongelaciĂłn y el termostato de descongelaciĂłn funcionan correctamente, es probable que la placa de control de descongelaciĂłn estĂ© defectuosa.
El frigorĂfico Whirlpool es ruidoso o fuerte.
Señal del ventilador. Si el frigorĂfico es ruidoso o ruidoso, especialmente cuando se abre una de las puertas, es posible que el ventilador del evaporador o del condensador estĂ© defectuoso. En primer lugar, compruebe el aspa del ventilador del evaporador en el congelador, detrás del panel trasero. Intente girarlo con la mano. Si el aspa del ventilador no gira libremente, compruebe si el aspa está rozando con algo o si hay algo atrapado en el aspa. Además, compruebe el aspa del ventilador del condensador en la parte inferior trasera del frigorĂfico para determinar si tiene alguna obstrucciĂłn.
Drenaje de descongelaciĂłn del frigorĂfico Whirlpool obstruido.
Calentador de desagĂĽe. Algunos frigorĂficos están equipados con calentadores de desagĂĽe. Los calentadores de desagĂĽe evitan que el agua de la bandeja de desagĂĽe se vuelva a congelar y obstruya el desagĂĽe de descongelaciĂłn. Si el calentador de drenaje está defectuoso o no está en la posiciĂłn adecuada, el drenaje de descongelaciĂłn podrĂa congelarse.
El frigorĂfico de Whirlpool no enfrĂa, pero el congelador funciona.
Motor del ventilador del evaporador. El motor del ventilador del evaporador extrae aire frĂo sobre las bobinas del evaporador y lo hace circular por todo el congelador. Si el ventilador del evaporador no funciona, el congelador o el frigorĂfico no enfriará adecuadamente. Para determinar si el motor del ventilador del evaporador está defectuoso, intente girar el aspa del ventilador con la mano. Si el aspa no gira libremente, sustituya el motor del ventilador. Además, si el motor es inusualmente ruidoso, sustitĂşyalo. Por Ăşltimo, si el motor no funciona en absoluto, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de los devanados del motor. Si los devanados no tienen continuidad, sustituya el motor del ventilador del evaporador.
El frigorĂfico Whirlpool pierde agua.
Cabezal del filtro de agua. El cabezal del filtro de agua puede estar agrietado, o la junta puede estar rota o faltar. Inspeccione la carcasa del filtro de agua en busca de grietas. Si descubre alguna grieta en la carcasa del filtro de agua, cámbiela.
CongelaciĂłn de alimentos en el frigorĂfico Whirlpool.
Termostato de control de temperatura. El termostato de control de temperatura dirige el voltaje al compresor, al motor del ventilador del evaporador y al motor del ventilador del condensador (si corresponde). Si el termostato de control de temperatura no funciona correctamente, puede hacer que el sistema de refrigeraciĂłn funcione más tiempo del necesario. Como resultado, el refrigerador estará demasiado frĂo. Para determinar si el termostato está defectuoso, gire el termostato desde el ajuste más bajo hasta el más alto y escuche un clic. Si el termostato hace clic, no es probable que estĂ© defectuoso. Si el termostato no hace clic, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad del termostato. Si el termostato de control de temperatura no tiene continuidad en ningĂşn ajuste, sustitĂşyalo.
La máquina de hielo del frigorĂfico Whirlpool se desborda.
Válvula de entrada de agua. La válvula de entrada de agua requiere un mĂnimo de 20 psi para cerrarse correctamente. Si la presiĂłn del agua es demasiado baja, es posible que la válvula no se cierre por completo una vez que se haya cortado la corriente. Como resultado, la válvula tendrá una fuga de agua en la máquina de hielo y hará que Ă©sta se desborde. Compruebe la presiĂłn del agua para determinar si es de al menos 20 psi. Si la presiĂłn del agua es suficiente, es probable que la válvula de entrada de agua estĂ© defectuosa. Es posible que la válvula no cierre del todo o que estĂ© atascada, haciendo que el agua se filtre a travĂ©s de la válvula. Si la presiĂłn del agua es suficiente, pero la máquina de hielo sigue rebosando, sustituya la válvula de entrada de agua.
La luz del frigorĂfico Whirlpool no funciona.
Bombilla. Es posible que la bombilla esté fundida. Reemplace la bombilla antes de reemplazar cualquier otra pieza asociada a la bombilla.
El frigorĂfico Whirlpool funciona constantemente.
Junta de la puerta. Si el frigorĂfico funciona constantemente, la junta de la puerta puede estar rota o defectuosa, o si la puerta no está bien cerrada, el aire caliente puede entrar en el frigorĂfico y hacer que los serpentines del evaporador se congelen. Esto ocurre porque el aire hĂşmedo de la habitaciĂłn entra en el frigorĂfico a travĂ©s de la abertura de la junta. Cuando la humedad entra en contacto con las bobinas frĂas del evaporador, se condensa y se congela. Normalmente, el sistema de descongelaciĂłn elimina esta escarcha y el hielo. Sin embargo, si la junta de la puerta está defectuosa, los serpentines del evaporador se congelan demasiado rápido y el ciclo de descongelaciĂłn no puede seguir el ritmo.

La secadora Whirlpool ha dejado de girar.
Correa de transmisión. La correa de transmisión es una correa muy larga y delgada que envuelve todo el camino alrededor del tambor de la secadora, alrededor de una polea de tensión, y luego alrededor de la polea del motor de accionamiento. Con el tiempo, la correa puede romperse por el uso normal. Si la correa está rota, la secadora no gira. Para determinar rápidamente si la correa está rota, introduzca la mano en la secadora y gire el tambor con la mano. Si el tambor gira con facilidad, es probable que la correa esté rota. A continuación, inspeccione la correa para confirmar que está rota. Si la correa está rota, sustitúyala.

A continuación, inspeccione la correa para confirmar que está rota. Si la correa está rota, sustitúyala.
La secadora de hidromasaje tarda demasiado en secar la ropa.
Rueda del soplador. La rueda del soplador funciona con el motor de accionamiento para introducir aire en el tambor de la secadora. Las pelusas, los calcetines y las prendas pequeñas pueden escapar del filtro de pelusas y quedar atrapadas en la rueda del soplador. Además, el manguito de la rueda del soplador puede desgastarse, permitiendo que la rueda del soplador se tambalee sobre el eje del motor. Si la rueda del soplador está obstruida o defectuosa, puede tardar demasiado en secar la ropa. Para determinar si la rueda del soplador funciona correctamente, retire la rejilla de ventilación de la secadora y evalúe la fuerza del flujo de aire. Si el flujo de aire es débil, compruebe si la rueda del soplador está obstruida. Si no hay obstrucciones, intente girar la rueda del soplador con la mano. Si la rueda del soplador se tambalea al girar, sustitúyala.
Secadora de hidromasaje sobrecalentada.
Elemento calefactor. El elemento calefactor calienta el aire antes de que Ă©ste entre en el tambor de la secadora. Si el elemento está parcialmente cortocircuitado, puede producir calor continuamente, incluso si la secadora ha alcanzado la temperatura adecuada. Cuando esto ocurre, la secadora se calienta demasiado. Para determinar si el elemento calefactor está averiado, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de cada terminal con la caja. Si el elemento calefactor tiene continuidad con la carcasa, está en cortocircuito. Si la resistencia está en cortocircuito, sustitĂşyala.
La secadora de hidromasaje no se detiene.
Rueda del soplador. La rueda del soplador aspira el aire a través de la secadora y empuja el aire fuera de la ventilación. Las pelusas, los calcetines y las prendas pequeñas pueden escapar del filtro de pelusas y quedar atrapadas en la rueda del soplador. Además, el manguito de la rueda del soplador puede desgastarse, permitiendo que la rueda del soplador se tambalee en el eje del motor.

Si la rueda del soplador se tambalea al girar, sustitúyala.
La secadora Whirlpool no se calienta.
Fusible tĂ©rmico. El fusible tĂ©rmico es un dispositivo de seguridad diseñado para proteger la secadora del sobrecalentamiento. El fusible se encuentra en la carcasa del soplador o en la fuente de calor de la secadora, como la resistencia en las secadoras elĂ©ctricas o en el quemador en los modelos de gas. El fusible debe estar cerrado por continuidad, lo que significa que tiene una trayectoria elĂ©ctrica continua a travĂ©s de Ă©l cuando está bien. Si se sobrecalienta, el fusible no tendrá continuidad, lo que significa que la trayectoria elĂ©ctrica está interrumpida y el fusible se ha fundido. Se puede utilizar un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad. Tenga en cuenta que un fusible tĂ©rmico fundido es una indicaciĂłn de que la ventilaciĂłn de la secadora hacia el exterior está restringida. Compruebe siempre la ventilaciĂłn de la secadora cuando sustituya un fusible tĂ©rmico fundido.
Secadora Whirlpool dispara el disyuntor.
Elemento calefactor. A veces, si el elemento calefactor falla, se cortocircuita contra la carcasa del calefactor, haciendo que la secadora dispare el disyuntor. Para determinar si el elemento calefactor está averiado, utilice un multĂmetro para comprobar la continuidad de cada terminal con la carcasa. Si el elemento calefactor tiene continuidad con la carcasa, está en cortocircuito. Si el elemento calefactor está en cortocircuito, sustitĂşyalo.

Whirlpool Water Heater bought May 2011: Water heater not heating. I called Whirlpool and they stated the equipment is under warranty but not the labor; $137.50 for 1st hour of service. Troubleshooting is a joke. It just doesnt heat. Waiting on the 3 plumbers to call me back. They are busy. Water heater went out Sat morning and Whirlpool doesnt open until Monday. Its Monday at 5pm and Im still waiting on a call back.
We bought a Whirlpool model WFW5620HW front-load washer at Lowes. The unit shook so violently during part of the spin cycle that the Whirlpool-authorized service company technician said not to use it while parts were ordered. It seems the balance ring was not functioning. Parts ordered were shocks and tub assembly. The technician suggested trying to get a whole new unit, as the repair is so intensive he had only done one or two in his career.Whirlpool customer service said they would not replace the unit, and an escalated request had the same response. I think this is terrible customer service - when there is such intensive failure in the unit, they should provide a brand new machine. The work has not yet been done - we are without use of a washer for an unknown period of time, since the order of a tub assembly is so uncommon that they do not have a time estimate. Needless to say, we will never buy Whirlpool again, and suggest you do the same.
WRF989SDAM00 - We spent about $1800 on a Whirlpool French Door refrigerator and at 1.5 years we had to replace the compressor for $700+. Apparently Whirlpool will only warranty for 1 year. The repairman told me the compressor he was putting in is exactly the same model as the bad one he took out so I guess I am not surprised that it only has a 1.5 year working range. We are now 1.5 years into the new compressor and sure enough it is dying again. Now it sounds like a jet plane taking off. By the time I replace it again I could have bought a new refrigerator. I am trying to figure out if this refrigerator is on recall because I cant keep replacing the compressor every 1.5 year. Never again will I purchase a Whirlpool product. I think they know the lifespan of that compressor and that is why the warranty falls just short of it!!
I had to turn the gas off my water heater and when I tried to turn it back on, it refused. I called the number on the heater and somebody answered. The guy told me to take the pilot gas hose off to make sure there was gas in the line. I did this but after spending 1/2 hour putting the pipe back in, the pilot light did not go on. I called them back and they told me to push a white switch and hold it down for 10 seconds and retry. That didnt work either so they told me to call a repair man and gave me the phone number of a local plumber. Trying not to give up, I removed the pilot light pipe off and tried blowing and sucking on it. I couldnt get air through the pipe so I figure that somehow it was clogged. I tried taking the whole assembly off (there are 2 screws to remove) but couldnt get that out. I called Whirlpool again and asked for a manual to be sent over the internet but I couldnt open that either. The water heater is only 3 years old and already Ill be paying to repair it.
Purchased a Whirlpool Cabrio Washer a few years back... Started getting F1 error message and just proceeded thru it like most did initially, but now has become pain in the rear just to do one load of laundry as we get the error 2-3 times when we start each load - then on every load w/ 21 minutes left on the cycle. From the looks of things online this is a chronic problem and should be fixed by manufacturer. I called Whirlpool customer service and first person I talked with said they understand it is an issue but no longer are any recalls or reworks on that machine. I asked to speak w/ supervisor and sat on hold until I got one. Was then informed they do know it was a problem but was not something they could do anything about other than schedule a service company to come take a look. I specifically asked if there was at one time a recall or if they were fixing this issue for a while. She said Yes, they took care of some of their customers but are no longer doing that for this model. So basically because I didnt call in at the right time I need to fix my machine myself. I said it will be the last Whirlpool or Whirlpool associated appliance I ever purchase if this is the kind of customer service I can expect... The supervisor just said she was sorry to hear that and to have a nice day. Hopefully enough people read these reviews as I wish I would have before purchasing my Cabrio and dont buy Whirlpool.
I have a Whirlpool Gold Series dishwasher. I would recommend this dishwasher. It is large enough to hold dirty dishes for a family of four. It is a little loud but not that bothersome. It is stainless steel but I don’t have a lot of fingerprint smears and stains.
I have purchased 2 Ikea/Whirlpool ovens in 2011 from Ikea in Canada. I have used the self clean feature on both ovens and both ovens quit completely and the doors stayed locked. This problem is discussed hundreds of times on the internet for Whirlpool, Ikea and Kitchen Aid ovens. Since they are all made by Whirlpool they are all very similar or exactly the same in some cases, as is the problem. I have discussed this with Ikea and they have said they didnt know about the problem but would help to get it fixed to my satisfaction. I have had Whirlpool authorized service repair both ovens but after trying the self clean feature again, same problem.During one of my conversations with an Ikea representative on the phone, she contacted Whirlpool and was told that if the oven was repaired 3 times and deemed by the service technician as unrepairable, Whirlpool would do a buyback. In other words according to Ikea, Whirlpool would take the oven and pay me what I paid for the oven. Well after contacting the authorized service dept (not Whirlpool itself) for the third time, they did some investigation with Whirlpool about the problem. To his and my amazement, Whirlpool has come up with a fix as of October 2013. The technician ordered the new kit and installed it in both ovens. I have since tried the self clean in one oven and this time it worked. For the information of others, Whirlpool has the kit and in it is an instruction sheet with pictures as to how to replace and install all the parts in the kit.I watched the installation, quite a process. From the instruction sheet there is a number on it. Here is the number - w10625529 rev. A 10/13. This is an instruction sheet for Ikea TOD (thermal overload device) service kit. I have looked at many of the service parts diagrams on the internet for many different current models of Ikea, Whirlpool and Kitchen Aid ovens and in most cases almost all the inside parts are the same or very very similar which leads me to the conclusion that this service kit may work in most of these ovens to correct the same problem, but I suggest checking with the appropriate service people before taking my word for it. My observation is that the kit moves the TOD off the top of the metal plate of the oven and onto a new bracket which the tech thought it was to get it further away from heat (this Im not sure of since Im not an expert). He also suggested that this kit may also be designed to allow more air flow around the oven.My only concern after having the self clean feature finally work is the heat produced inside the kitchen cabinet in which the oven is installed. Approximately an hour and a half after turning the self clean on, I felt the side of the cabinet between it and the fridge (open space), and at one area of the wood cabinet I could not hold my hand on the cabinet as it was too very hot. I will be checking the inside of the cabinet for signs of excess heat and if I see any evidence, I will again call the service people. Since the elements were not on when I checked this, I assume the self clean had finished the heat cycle and was in the process of cooling down. When I test the other oven, I will make sure the elements are still on as I can see them thru the glass door. When I checked the temperature of the outside wood cabinet using a laser thermometer, the outside wood registered 64 degrees C or 142 F approximately. Not sure what the inside temperature was as the oven was still in place. Hopefully I will not get a higher reading when the self clean is at its maximum temperature in the cleaning cycle. Will the oven create any problems in the future for the cabinet, I hope not but time will tell. For clarification, the cabinets were built by a kitchen cabinet company using the instruction sheet that came with the ovens. I hope some of this will be of help to some of the hundreds of people who have posted this very same problem on the internet. When you have paid for an appliance you wanted because of the features it came with, it should provide you with what you paid for and not constantly break down. Im lucky as they came with a 5-year warranty so it hasnt cost me anything yet and hopefully wont in the future. Good luck to all in getting this resolved for all of you.
Bought a brand new 40 gal water heater from Lowes. Installed it and it worked fine. Next day no hot water... After doing all the tests with tech support. This smart mouthed CSR explained to me how her uncle is a master plumber and she knows what shes talking about. Still couldnt tell me what was causing it to not work. Other than the reset being tripped. I have had good luck with Whirlpool products. But customer service has always been poor.
Whirlpool gold series gas oven with Aqua Lift. Very unhappy with this oven. Cons: Aqua Lift technology doesnt work AT ALL (manual cleaning required); stove top hard to clean; 2 front gas burners are super burners which is fine for boiling water, but too hot for regular cooking. Would be better to have one super burner in the middle or back but two up front is way too hot for regular cooking, even on lowest setting; oven cuts out while cooking -- unexplainable how this happens but you really have to watch the oven while cooking to make sure its still on. Pros: large oven so you can cook ginormous turkeys or prime ribs.
We have the Cabrio model and are thoroughly pleased with the performance. My only issue is the amount of sounds during the spin cycle. Otherwise, the machine is quiet. I like having the automatic dispensers for soap, bleach and fabric softener. Not having the classic tub makes loading a little different as the clothes need to be distributed around the side of the tub and avoid the center.
We purchased a new Whirlpool dishwasher in June of 2014. By February 2015 the racks were rusting. I called loses warranty and they referred me to Whirlpool since it was still under a year old and covered by the manufacturer warranty. They said no problem and would have new ones sent out. Three months later I still did not get them. I called them back and they said that they were not covering them due to rust being normal. This is the absolute worst customer service and it says a lot about how Whirlpool stands behind their products.
This machine cannot handle washing jeans, towels, blankets, pillows or anything bulky or very small loads. The load becomes ul unbalanced almost every time I try to wash a load. It has never gotten things very clean.
After 25 years my Maytag died. It was a Sunday so we just decided to go to Lowes & purchase a new one. They could not find my 1st choice so I bought the Cabrio. It is the worst washer I could have purchased. It determines the amount of water you need. Our clothes never seem to be clean & its very noisy. It has no agitator & is supposed to save water. Even putting it on the longest cycle our clothes do not appear to be clean.
We purchased a Whirlpool washing machine for $600 from a local retailer and it broke down within three months. It is now been two months and two repairman visits later and still not fixed. I called them and talked to customer service who then transferred me to another department. So far it’s just been the typical runaround with no results. I demanded an immediate replacement but was told that would need approval from yet another department. I don’t remember what departments are involved nor do I care. I am simply disgusted with this baloney.
When we bought our side by side fridge (model GD5RVAXVB02), the manual said to clean the condenser coils if you have excess dust and/or pet hair. We have both. We tried with the vacuum and with a brush but it is impossible to get to the coils because they run side to side instead of front to back. You can only get to the first coil in front. The rest cant be accessed from the front, sides or back. I called to find out how Whirlpool recommended they be cleaned and they could only recommend a vacuum attachment tool (8171579A) to clean the floor below the coils or a coil brush (4210463RW) that cant reach the coils! This design is meant to fail prematurely. They could have easily installed the coils running front to back so they could all be easily cleaned.
Whirlpool Cabrio Elite Top Loading Washer Model WTW8240YW - I add my complaint to the roughly 2000 others about this machine and Whirlpool. Two months after the warranty expired the machine started making a loud noise on the spin cycle. I called a repairman and he said it was the main bearing going bad and this was a common problem with this model. He recommended buying a new washer rather than repairing the unit because the cost to repair was greater than what I paid for the washer. I called Whirlpool and all they offered was to send a repairman at my cost. This is terrible service for a documented problem that they have. I will buy a new washer but it will not be a Whirlpool!
It never seems to clean the dishes and it runs for 3 1/2 hrs. It is suppose to have all these Features but does a very bad cleaning job. I have used liquid soap, the cascade pods and the jet dry, still gives very poor results. Use to have a Kitchenaid that lasted almost 30 years - great appliance...
I purchased my Whirlpool side by side refrigerator approximately 6 months ago. Immediately upon delivery the compressor showed itself to be very noisy, especially upon start up. I questioned the delivery persons and was told it would become quieter with time. It did I not. In fact, in the following days it got worse. I contacted Whirlpool and was sent an “approved” repairman. The confusions and scheduling difficulties in this process, however, were many. Finally, when the man did arrive. He listened and said the refrigerator was working but agreed it was loud but apologized there was nothing he could do.I called Whirlpool again several times to note the noise and constantly was given the sympathy of people saying they “understood but there was nothing they could do.” Finally, out of desperation I contacted the store where I had purchased the refrigerator and they sent a manager who agreed the unit was unreasonably loud and took the refrigerator back. I researched the Whirlpool company and found they are essentially the same company that makes several other common American name brands, so I made a point not to purchase from any of these companies. Instead, I purchased from a foreign manufacturer and couldn’t be happier. All I can say is I tried to buy American but have been greatly disappointed by both the product and lack of customer service by Whirlpool. I will not buy from them or their other companies again.
We bought our Terrorpool Whirlpool refrigerator in 2006. We have had problems with the ice dispenser, bad motor replacement, and now we have cracks all down the right inside wall. I had bought an extended warranty of four years at the time of purchase which covered the cost of the previous problems. But it has now expired, and I was told it would be my expense for repair. What happened to reliable appliances that our parents and grandparents had? What happened to the name Whirlpool? I will never buy a Whirlpool product again, not to mention the customer service (which I wont mention). If you have model # ED5PHEXRQ00, please write about any problems you have had and help someone else not make the same mistake.
Refrigerator stopped cooling... Paid $200 to have it diagnosed... Cost more than a new refrigerator to get fixed...$14,000. Refrigerator was 7 years old, energy star. How can it be energy efficient if it was made to last only seven years? How much energy is wasted making new ones to replace the broken ones, that cost too much to fix. Energy star. What a scam.
I replaced my 12 year old Whirlpool double ovens with the current Whirlpool double ovens. The new 30 built in double ovens have been re-designed to vent the heat below the lower oven. The ovens come with a part that pushes the heat down instead of straight out. My built in ovens have a cabinet drawer below and after using the ovens just 4 times over the holidays I noticed the heat is damaging the finish. According to Whirlpools service center I should have checked on that before buying/installing. They told me to stop using my ovens, that this is a fire hazard, but they are not responsible. They do not have a solution to this problem. This is a poor design on their part. There is a disclaimer in their installation booklet that came packed with the ovens that the installer gave me. It says the cabinets need to be able to withstand the heat of the ovens. The cabinets can handle the heat of the ovens, just not the hot air venting directly onto the cabinets below the oven. Where does one find cabinets that can withstand 400 degree heat being pushed directly onto them? As a customer I did not have that information until after the ovens were installed and it was too late to purchase another brand.
I purchased a home in March of 2013. When I bought the home, I noticed it had a new Whirlpool 50-gallon gas 6th sense hot water heater model number ND50T122-403. It was newer and I thought it was a good selling point and would last many years. The original owner had purchased the heater in March of 2011. Three months after I moved in, the control valve went bad - 4 flash eco lockout. I called Whirlpool. They sent out the replacement part. I had to pay for shipping express delivery. Since then the control valve has gone out 2 more times, a total of 3 times in one year. On the third time, they gave me a return number for a replacement. I dont even want this heater for free. I am still required to pay for installation and additional installation parts. This product is terrible. Save yourself a headache. Do not buy this product!
I bought this top loading, low water machine 1.5 years ago, $500.00, did not buy extended warranty, expect major appliance to last at least 5 years. Motherboard is out, will not spin, will cost at least 200 to $300 to get it fixed! Selling on Craigslist for 50. So sad. Will never buy whirlpool again, waste of hard earned money!
Whirlpool gas range convection oven - I have only had this range for 2 weeks. Manual is sketchy to say the least. Purchased from LOWES - salesman were not well-informed. I have had to do a chat to find out information. Range looks great but performs poorly. Takes a while to heat anything even on high and on large burners. Grates are too heavy. I am sorry I did not see the editor review before I purchased. I have not used the convection so I cannot speak to this but my choices were limited when I purchased and I did not want a convection oven and other ranges would not purposeful for my use.
I had purchased this washer from Lowes last September and had problems almost immediately. First of all the lid would lock and hold my clothes hostage till it decided to reopen which could be days. Finally it never opened again. Called customer service and sent someone out. It took almost a month to get it back to running. 1 week for him to show up then 2 more weeks for the part to come in 1 more week for him to grace me with his presence again. Had to call again because the mother board then went. Another month. Now just out of warranty I go to wash and its dead. No lights on nothing. This machine is the biggest pile of garbage and waste of money I ever spent. Barely made it 1 year.
Sad that I have to file this review! After reading multiple other reviews on all brands available to American citizens, I have come to the realization that cheap labor and materials are creating massive appliance garbage in our country as well as financial rip off for us all. It needs to STOP! What has happened to doing things right!! What company is going to be the first to produce good refrigerators! Paid over $2000 for my side by side and it is only 5 years old and has a freon leak that cant be fixed. Repairman said will have to buy a new refrigerator. Pathetic!! Cheap manufacturing in foreign countries is killing our economy and our household finances. Be prepared to buy NOTHING that works! Yeah, thats what I work hard for and look forward to. Americans better wake up.
On 5/3/16 I purchased an Amana high-efficiency, low water, top loading washer. What a joke, it is a piece of junk. There is no water so clothes dont come clean, and if you leave money in the pockets no worries. As it will be right there after the clothes are washed and dried (got matching dyer also). They dont even smell clean after two washing. And now you are to purchase a cleaner to clean your washing machine. This is truly not an efficient machine in any way.
Whirlpool Cabrio washing machine is less than five years old. First repair was replacement of control panel (under warranty). Second, third and fourth attempts to fix the out-of-balance problem which continually caused the machine to shut down altogether (even a small load) left my repairman totally frustrated after replacing most of the parts, finally telling me it just cant be fixed! What? I paid over $1,000 for this machine in Oct. 2007 and expected it to last many, many years. My mother-in-law has a washing machine she bought used in 1979 and it is still working beautifully. Ive read the 14 pages of complaints on the Consumer Affairs website and agree with Diana in Kissimmee, Fl - I am sick to my stomach not only for Whirlpool not recalling the Cabrio, but for Lowes and Sears and any other supposedly family-friendly business for continuing to sell it! Someone please contact me if you know of a class action suit being filed.
On Aug. of 2013, purchased A Whirlpool refrigerator with ex warranty to find out the bottom freezer door started to RUST!!!! They said it was not covered????? WHY!!!!
I am writing to inform you of my dissatisfaction with the Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer I purchased in December of 2011. The model and serial numbers are YWED94HEXL0/M12602088 and WFW94HEXL2/c12350046. After using them for several months, I have found that the performance of the washer and dryer to be poor. I find the clothes do not come out very clean. I used my mother-in-law’s GE washer to compare and found that the clothes came out much cleaner in her washer. I was astonished at the difference. The white clothes, especially, were so much cleaner than in my washer in which white clothes, especially, come out looking like they have not even been washed. I am unhappy with the dryer as well, which continues to shrink my clothes a lot. I am distraught with this situation as this was a big purchase for me. I believe the quality of the washer and dryer is simply poor and I would like an exchange with a better quality set which actually cleans my clothes. I rely heavily on my washer/dryer as I have three young boys who go through a lot of clothes. Please let me know what can be done on your end. Thank you kindly.
Bought dishwasher and a gas range about a year ago. Had to call the repairman twice on our dishwasher and three times on our gas range. Now it is little over a year and I am out of warranty. I paid extra and thought I was buying products of a good brand. I should have bought products from one of the cheaper brands along with the extended warranty.
Whirlpool is one of the best appliances I have ever used. They last for years and the self clean ovens come in handy. I’m not to big on the electric stoves, but they are also amazing. Almost everyone in my family use Whirlpool, and we all love the stove and refrigerator. It is definitely a wonderful product.
Whirlpool washer WTW7800 Cabrio - I bought this machine in Oct 2010 for $900.00. This October, the lid started not closing. Next thing I know, the glass is popping out. After waiting on hold for 20 minutes, I was told there is nothing they could do but refer me to a repairman at a cost of $179. The glass is popping out. This is a defect not caused by washing clothes but poor workmanship. I am on hold again. I am calling channel 3 news to do a story and will not stop until it is fixed.
I rent a condo unit and hardly use the microwave. It is nice to have. Never had one over the stove and it came with the unit, so I gave mine away. After living here for 3 years I am now moving to another city 5 hours away. I noticed the other day when I went to melt butter for popcorn, the door crack, which I noticed the second year we lived here, has gotten worse. Not just worse, but the handle looks like one pull and its completely broken. My landlord expects us to pay for this. I am reading and I see that its from the heat from the stove, which is also a Whirlpool product, is to blame, not the user. How is this right, how is this fair?? When we move we will have to buy a new microwave, that will sit once again on my beautiful microwave cabinet and I promise, it WILL NOT be a Whirlpool!!!
Re: wdf7payw6. I purchased this unit last February. It has never washed properly. In the last month 2 separate warranty service reps have been out. The first one told me that I have not been doing a good enough job of prewashing the dishes so the arms were clogged. While cleaning them, he broke the top arm. When he came back to replace the top arm, he added that the dishes were not drying because I didnt use enough jet dry so I would have to dry by hand, and that the arms were clogging because I didnt prewash well enough. I told him to leave and never come back. I called customer service and they sent out a new company.The rep today told me that even on time delay or overnight settings I must run the hot water prior to starting the unit. And that since the water wasnt hot enough; the undissolved detergent was clogging the spray arms. This was confirmed by your phone support person who told me that for best results thats what I had to do. The result I want is for the thing to wash dishes. It doesnt do that. The current rep ordered a heater, motor pump and spray arms. My previous dishwasher operated perfectly (until the pump failed) for the 18 years I have lived in this house plus however long it was here before I moved in. I will never buy a Whirlpool product or anything built by subsidiaries or parent AGAIN.
We purchased the Cabrio Agi top loading washing machine in 2011 (3 years ago). After 2 years it started leaking from the plastic drum (Bearings?). Luckily we have it in the basement on concrete floor, so there was no damage, just frustration. This was poor purchase on our part. We should have searched for more reviews. The wash time is ridiculous; it is too long, an average of 50 minutes per load. I dont know about how clean the clothes were, I guess they were OK. I didnt notice a smell, or them looking dingy. The Cabrio is a piece of junk if the bearings went out after 2 years?? We just purchased a heavy duty Speed Queen, top loading, agitator washer. My wife loves this, its like the old Maytag we had. They told us they wont be selling these washers after next year. Buy them while you can. The Cabrio is headed to scrap yard.
I am completely dissatisfied with the Whirlpool Cabrio top loading machine. Our washing machine is less than one-year-old. It doesnt get the clothes clean, especially the darks, and it is so rough on the clothes that they come out twisted tied into knots. The dark clothes come out dirtier than they went into machine. Even though we use the dark detergent on the dark clothes and program for an extra rinse cycle, the clothes come out with white powder all over them. They need to be washed again and sometimes again. And sometimes they still dont come out clean. That is not very energy efficient. The clothes come out of the machine so wrinkled that everything needs to be ironed. I can imagine making washing machine that doesnt do its primary function, which is to get clothes clean. Todays families do not have time for this extra work.
I bought my Cabrio Platinum Washer and Dryer in 2013 (4 years old). About a month ago, it started sounding like an airplane was landing in the house while on spin cycle. I called a repairman and he said the bearings were going bad and it would be better to buy a new machine. When we pulled out the washer, there was grease all over the floor - apparently a seal started leaking and the bearings had no grease so they started burning up. I talked with Whirlpool, after all it was only 4 years old and a seal leaking and burning the bearings up wouldnt be from normal wear. They were not convinced and offered to give me a discount on a new one -- No Way! I went with another brand recommended by the repairman. The screws on the dryer door also came out and we had to replace them. So much for the Whirlpool brand and especially their top of the line machines. I will not buy another Whirlpool washer or dryer.
I bought a 40-gallon hot water heater in November 2007. First problem I had with it was in 2009 when the pilot wouldnt stay lit. They sent me a requisition number to take to Lowe’s to pick up the part (igniter) and gave me a service number to give to the plumber to fix it. Plumber actually told me these heaters were junk and this wasnt the last problem Id have. Last Sunday (January 2012)--here we go again. Pilot went out and wont stay lit. Whirlpool is telling me its because I have a draft. Yeppers, that must be it because after they had me (arthritic 53-year old) and my disabled husband performing circus acts trying to relight it, then it was the filter on the bottom, then it was a draft. Last time I tried to light, which really someone as blind and disabled as me shouldnt be doing anyway, I about blew up. I hate getting ** by big corps. I filed a complaint with state Attorney General. If that doesnt work, hell, I think Ill take both Whirlpool and Lowe’s to small claims court. What do I have to lose? $35? Their fancy-schmancy lawyers will probably charge them a couple grand for their efforts. Im sick and tired of getting the short end of the stick. Since when is a hot water tank supposed to last a mere 4 years? Oh, by the way, Whirlpool says it’s all on me now--well see about that. First of all, both of these chumps just lost a customer and I Facebooked by friends about this pleasant experience plus included a link to this page. Consequences are all mine, I guess. Its pretty swell bathing in a sink full of water that you heated on the stove. I dont have any money because Im too busy giving it all to big insurance and big pharma right now. What a country!
Big bang for your buck. I have used Whirlpool for years without any needed repairs. Typically you may see brands began to fade as you use them. However, the Whirlpool brand microwave always seem to stay true to its form. As long as you keep the inside clean the microwave should last a long time.
La máquina es fiable, no tarda una eternidad en hacer una carga, es relativamente silenciosa. Tiene suficientes opciones en funciĂłn del tamaño de la carga. Las opciones adicionales son el ajuste de tiempo, la elecciĂłn de los ajustes de agua caliente, frĂa o caliente, frĂa. En cargas ligeras y medias extrae casi todo el agua; en cargas más pesadas un centrifugado extra seco hace el trabajo. En todos los años que la hemos tenido, sĂłlo ha necesitado una llamada de servicio. El tĂ©cnico de mantenimiento nos ha dicho que este modelo es el mejor de la serie y nos recomienda que lo conservemos el mayor tiempo posible. Estamos muy contentos con Ă©l.
Whirlpool White Ice gas range with aqualift technology. Whirlpool uses a self-cleaning technology called AquaLift to clean the oven. It does not work. It does not clean the oven no matter how many times you run the cycle. I have contacted Whirlpool 3 times and they did respond. They first suggested buying their oven cleaner. I purchased the oven cleaner and it did not work! They then said that aqualift will only clean the bottom of the oven (it does not). Who buys a brand new oven that does not have a self-cleaning feature? I read reviews online prior to buying this oven and unfortunately for me, there were no bad reviews. However, I just checked again and there are numerous reviews stating that aqualift technology did not work for them either. This oven bakes but it does not clean and Whirlpool will tell you not to use oven cleaners in your gas oven because they will damage the surface of the oven. I currently have a very dirty oven and no effective way to clean it! Do not buy this oven if you want a self-cleaning oven. This oven should be recalled and money refunded. I would never knowingly buy an oven that does not self-clean. This Whirlpool with Aqualift is not effective and the company had to test this before it was marketed. I do not know which brands to recommend at this point as I am stuck with a Whirlpool gas oven that does not self-clean. The oven is only 1.5 years old so I will be stuck with this oven for a few years. Do extensive research before you buy any appliance.
I purchased at Lowes and they say was without warranty. I have had all kinds of trouble. The pilot light was replaced in the burner easily because of recall. Now the pilot will not stay lighted unless you tap on the gas valve. Then as soon as the water temperature comes up, the burner and the pilot light go out. I went to Lowes for a new gas valve. They have one for natural gas of $58. They do not stock for propane. I have to purchase from Whirlpool which costs $228. Their comment is that it is more expensive to build another. They do not change offices any longer because of PSi difference bull crap. I purchased a Whirlpool gas stove 2 to 3 years ago and I had to purchase an LP change over kit to use it. This is nothing but a case price extortion. I will never purchase another Whirlpool product again and I would advise no one else either!
Bought a model WRT318FZDW02 (top freezer) refrigerator (new) about 3 1/2 years ago and its already failing. The temperature regulation has failed and food in the lower compartment freezes while the temperature in the freezer compartment varies wildly. Unfortunately typical repair costs these days will probably make this a throw away item. Ive owned several different refrigerators over the years and theyve all lasted well beyond 10 years. I definitely cant recommend buying anything from Whirlpool these days.
We purchased a Whirlpool Gold self-cleaning oven three months ago and have had nothing but problems with it. First of all, the new aqua clean system is a joke. I ended up scouring the inside with cleanser and a scouring pad for over 30 minutes to get all the baked-on food that the aqua clean system did not get off. Now Im not wanting to use the oven to cook anything that splatters. Secondly, the oven does not cook when using the convection mode. I thought convection was suppose to cook quicker but in my case, I have to cook the food longer. Thirdly, the bulb burnt out in the oven after only three months. Im glad we are trying to sell the house because I could not live with all the problems very much longer.
Four years old and only used by a 2 family home. No kids overloading it. Probably wash 3 loads a week on average. After 4 years, it has started the grease flying out of the bottom and now leaking water. My appliance repair man told me to scrap it and buy a new one. The repair and the parts are too expensive and in the end it is still junk. I realize things wont last 30 years like they used to but can I get 7 years out of a major appliance?
Off balance, wont wash correctly. Familiar stories online. Wasted money on a washer that is not very old. Wont buy another one ever again.
3 months after I got the fridge, the ice maker went out. 3 months later it started to work again. Replace the water filters 2 times per yr. It is noisy when it makes ice.
En 2012 compramos un calentador de agua Whirlpool Nu40T61-403 en Lowes que instalĂ© debido a que no podĂamos permitirnos un fontanero. Desde entonces me he convertido en fontanero. Esta mañana, mientras intentaba ducharme, me di cuenta de que el agua estaba tibia cuando la válvula de la ducha estaba completamente caliente. Me vestĂ e inspeccionĂ© el calentador. EmpecĂ© a diagnosticar el problema. El piloto estaba apagado y la luz de la válvula de control de gas estaba apagada. EncendĂ el piloto y parecĂa funcionar normalmente. Mi primer pensamiento fue que la termopila habĂa fallado, pero al ver que el piloto seguĂa encendido resultĂł que no era el caso. En ese momento me sentĂ muy aliviado. GirĂ© el mando de control de la temperatura a alto y el quemador se encendiĂł. Al principio parecĂa funcionar bien. Pero en unos 20 segundos empecĂ© a escuchar detonaciones dentro de la cámara de combustiĂłn sellada.
I have had my washer dryer set for only 3 years and have all the problems that have already been posted. Whirlpool has no recall on this washer (Cabrio) and does not plan on helping out anybody in any way. Their solution is pay for everything out of pocket or buy their one year warranty for ironically the price of what a new motor, and any of the other common items that are breaking would cost. And this is only good for ONE year. With the history of this company I would expect this to last at least ten years or longer before we start discussing replacing anything. I also had a Maytag that I had a problem with and did not get anywhere with that either. Whirlpool/Maytag, you need to stand behind your product. Your name is not going to get you anywhere nowadays. This blog has a spot about legal representation. If you can help me, please contact me.
Very concerned. First the microwave broke. It seems that is burning on the inside. The model number is MH1150XMS-2, purchased in 2005. I have had to replace the plate. I have read of many recalls, because of the potential of fire. My model was not among the ones on the recall list.
I am on my second Whirlpool hot water heater within 7 years and both had a 9-year supposed warranty. Upon replacing the pop-off valve (at my expense), I paid $98 to replace the gas valve (part was issued by Whirlpool). Still having problems with pop valve and now the pilot light wont stay lit. Upon calling the number (877 817-6750) I was finally told they would replace the heater. When I stated that I did not want another faulty Whirlpool heater and that I would take the faulty heater back to place of purchase but that I wanted a local plumber to install their own heater, I was told that I had to have a thermal expansion tank or they basically would not do anything. Why would I want a third Whirlpool product? The second one is ruining my tiled basement floor as it is. So after spending over $600 for the faulty heater, now I have to spend $700 to replace it.
I purchased a washer Type: 587-08, MOD: 1CWTW48004QO, Serial # C21920164 about two years ago. The appearance of the machine is in an excellent condition but its not working. The tub inside is slanted and makes a loud banging sound when rinsing. It is no longer in warranty. All my appliances are Whirlpool brand because my mom has items that are still 15years and over. This machine that I purchased did not even give me a quarter of that. The prices of these items are expensive and increasing all the time but the quality, durability and lifetime is diminishing at a faster rate. I am worried about all the other items I purchased: dryer, refrigerator, stove and microwave. I am most dissatisfied. I STRONGLY believe that this unfair and unlawful....I work hard and save up to buy these items to only get two years from it......Whirlpool please render some assistance!!!
Within 5 years, this is my experience: A broken brand new Whirlpool fridge after 6 months of purchase; a broken oven that needed repair after 1 year, and today, the oven door just shattered in pieces after I heard a loud noise from the kitchen, almost injured the kids. And guess what, I just returned a new Tilt-Head Stand Mixer KitchenAid that wouldnt stay in place; the head keeps on tilting and would not stay locked. After being on hold on the phone for almost 3 weeks for a return, I found out it was a Whirlpool brand family. This is horrible, I would suggest to never buy the Whirlpool brand; their products are a real nightmare and their customer service is not reliable. If you do buy from them, expect unreliable products and very long long wait periods on the phone.
1.0 out of 5. This is the absolute worst washer that I have ever owned. Do NOT fall for the top loader hype. The clothes do not get clean. Anything black constantly comes out with a white residue and whites are dingy. Ive tried numerous detergents and used as little as a tablespoon and still get the same results. The company just insists that its too much detergent or that I need to run the clean cycle after every 4-5 loads. The service guy that came out said this is the number 1 complaint with these washers and Ive talked to plenty of friends that experience the same issue. The company would have you think this is the first time they have heard of it.I have spent hours on the phone with whirlpool and Home Depot over the past year and neither accept responsibility or offer any solution other than some free cleaning tablets from Whirlpool and Home Depot offered $200 off the purchase of another washer. This was when the washer was only 6 months old. The only way around this is to rewash the clothes and a second cycle and to wash all loads on bulk load with an extra rinse. Yep. Great water savings there! Save yourself the headache and dont buy a top loader of any brand and I would never buy another appliance of any kind from Whirlpool and Home Depot because of their poor customer service in handling this common issue.
BFG2F4040T3NIV IS HORRIBLE. This water heater is JUNK. The release valve has released and flooded my basement 3 times in the past 2 years and the recovery time on water is terrible. Whirlpool needs to step up to the plate and refund everyone who purchased one of these. Every review on this unit is horrible. DO NOT PURCHASE a WHIRLPOOL water heater!
I purchased the Whirlpool Cabrio washer and dryer in 2007. They have been the biggest pieces of junk. One year after my purchase, the water pump broke and had to be replaced for $100 and that is with my husband doing it. Then the dryer broke twice. Now, the washer is not spinning. He took it apart and I purchased $80 in parts. It still doesnt spin. He thinks the motor went and it gives a p50 code. This washer does make holes in your clothes. So many of my summer tops were ruined because of this washer. A friend has the same washer and she started getting the holes in the clothes, so that is how we figured it out. Today, I went and picked up a washer at my rental home, a GE that is 10 years old. My clothes never felt cleaner and it runs like a charm. That Cabrio always smelled like mildew because it seemed like all the water didnt drain out of it and it would sit in the bottom. What a shame. Its only 6 years old and I paid $800 for it and for parts. My husband cant wait to put it on the curb on garbage day. My friend warrantied hers and when the guy couldnt fix the problem, they gave her partial money back. At least she got something. These should be recalled and we should get partial money back depending on how old it is. I will tell everyone not buy these. They are the biggest pieces of junk!
Whirlpool Washing Machine Model WTW4950XW0 - This washing machine was purchased as a gift by my father. We have owned this machine for about 2 years. I am very disappointed with the quality of this machine. I have 3 children and several pets. I use my machine a lot and need a quality item that will last. This machine is not that item. Within a few months, the machine was off balance and bolts had to be tightened. We have had problems with the belt, bolts coming loose and the machine not draining.More recently, the machine has become very loud... For approximately the last 6 months. My husband has taken the machine apart and looked for anything to be wrong with it and has found nothing. Now the machine is not running. I will turn it on and it fills with water and then stops. I will clear it out and restart it and it does the same thing. Another issue has been with spinning and draining. The clothes are soaking wet even after the drain/spin cycle.I have researched what could possibly be wrong with this machine and have found a vast number of items that could need replaced. With the money I have already put into fixing this machine in the past and the amount it will cost to fix it this time, I believe I will be further ahead if I buy a new machine made by a different company. I will not be buying a Whirlpool product again.
Purchased on 9/12 at Home Depot. Ice maker paid for as stated in ad for home depot, did not come with fridge. Tech needed for warm food, had to repair gasket. Tech needed for cracked handle. 6 calls for freezing food in fridge compartment. No resolve. Whirlpool wanted a 2nd opinion and another tech came deeming the fridge unrepairable. Not good enough for Whirlpool. After speaking to several customer service agents, they said they do not refund or replace, only repair. I have lost hundreds of dollars of food from freezing. My fridge is reading at 31 deg. This is way below what it is supposed to read at. No call from Whirlpool since last tech came. Their customer service is terrible and cold. Whirlpool Corp. was not any help either. You can see the problem with this model if you look up Whirlpool fridge freezing food in Florida, as a woman there called ABC news and they reported it. I will also do the same.
Two days after the one year warranty ran out on our front load washer it started making a terrible noise. Of course the Whirlpool warranty was no longer in effect. The good news I was sold an extended warranty from Nebraska Furniture Mart. Called the Service Provider and was told they will only service the washer if it is not working. After several more calls they scheduled a service call in 10 days. We are a family of four, yes no washer is a problem. Finally the technician showed up and said the main bolt holding the drum assembly in place had broken off. He would have to order the bolt. It is now on backorder for 3 weeks. No washing machine for 4 people and now nearly a month is a pain. Not only did my calls to Whirlpool do nothing but the calls to the third party Warranty Company have been very frustrating. My call to the salesperson at NFM was very helpful, but didn’t help get our washer fixed. This is our second and last set of Whirlpool laundry pairs in less than four years.
I have a roughly 2-year-old 30 Whirlpool electric range that has just got out of warranty 4 or 5 months ago. It has been a great stove up until the last couple of months. We have had 4 incidents where the burner would shoot up to high on its own even with the knob down at medium or low. 4 times in the last month, it has come close to catching fire while we were cooking. I have contacted Whirlpool about this issue and have yet to get a response.
The Whirlpool microwave stopped working 14 months after purchase. The technician, who was a complete moron, said that he couldn’t find the problem, but took 129 dollars in service fee, which was extortion. Their appliances are ** and so are the ramrods that they hire to service them.
We purchased a Whirlpool french door refrigerator 10 months ago. We have had issues with it freezing up and not cool or making Ice. In 10 months we have had repair work done on the same issue 3 different times. This refrigerator has been discontinue at the time of my purchase because whirlpool was aware of all the issues from what the repair people have told me. Shame on me for not researching this refrigerator. Customer service was no help. All they kept saying is that they will keep repairing it under the warranty. DONT buy a whirlpool. Stay far away from this company and anything they make. They do not stand behind the products.
I was doing a routine refrigerator cleaning and the glass I was cleaning absolutely shattered all over my kitchen. Shards of glass are everywhere including my disposal. I called Whirlpool and talked to a customer service rep. Of course, this is not under warranty. So I asked to speak with a supervisor. All I could get from her is Sorry, youre disappointed. We can replace that part for $87.71. It has taken me over two hours to clean up all the glass. I wouldnt be upset if I had mishandled the glass, but it broke when I was drying it with a towel! I’m wondering if anyone elses glass shattered in the same fashion.
This is an EXTREMELY dangerous range. The burner knobs leak - turn on with just a bump and leak gas. Any slight movement causes the knob to move and allows the gas to leak before the igniter ignites the gas. Has happened THREE times!!!! Has this product been recalled???
Microwave model WMH73521CS-2: Microwave is approx 2.5 yrs old. This is the 2nd time we have had problems with door open and close msg appearing on display. We had to have door latches replaced once and again are having to have it serviced again. $100 for service to come out again, does not include cost of replacement parts. This seems to be a consistent problem with this model. We are not replacing the parts and are buying a different microwave. Definitely not Whirlpool. I called Whirlpool and was on hold for almost an hour and received no resolution to problem.
I purchased a high dollar built in side by side fridge with custom panels in 4/2005 and had my first service call in 5/2005. Since 2005 we have had 11 service call mostly for defrost failures and over temp. readings. From 2011-11/20/2013 we were issue free then the fridge over temp alarm sounded and we could not hear the fan motor. We had the certified tech come out to evaluate and found that the main control board needed to be replaced. Kitchen Aid/Whirlpool no longer make this item and forwarded us to Core Centric solutions to have a new one built. After speaking with the certified tech who had been out to service our fridge 11 times he informed us that these boards in his experience have never lasted more than a year. We spoke with a customer service rep a Kitchen Aid and asked about a prorated discount on a new built in fridge and she said it seemed reasonable but after checking for authorization informed me I needed to have the board rebuilt at my own cost and that even though this typically takes about 4 weeks to build the fact that our family would be without a fridge is not Kitchen Aids problem. 6/20/2005-over temp/not cooling call (replaced defrost thermostat) 9/2005-over temp/freezer iced over in bottom (freezer decided and drain unclogged) 10/05-over temp/not cooling (replaced fan motor) 9/06-over temp/freezer iced over in bottom (drain line decided, kitchen aid had no advice on how to fix) 10/06-over temp/not cooling, ice build up (whirlpool recommended replace heat kit and bimetal) 11/7-over temp and ice buildup in freezer with leakage (adj to drain pump and defrost drain basin made) 11/07- over temp and freezer icing over (whirlpool sent out a new heater probe) 6/08-over temp and ice buildup (bimetal and foam block replaced) 10/09-over temp, lights and motor shutting on and off (replaced defective board) 10/09- fan making excessive noise (ice buildup found on evaporator fan)11/13-over temp ice buildup in freezer, burning smell from fridge and no air movement or cooling in either compartment (need board rebuilt as on 10/09)Board no longer available from whirlpool, must be custom built at owners expense and will take up to 4 weeks. D/t continuing issues and whirlpool not willing to help the customer with replacement I would highly suggest no one buy a Kitchen Aid fridge.
Our home came with an Asko dishwasher, theoretically a premium device though the experience was not the best. Anyways, had to replace it after a few years and decided to buy a Whirlpool under the assumption that if an Asko kind of sucks, being so expensive, it was not worth the money to spend big bucks on an expensive dishwasher. I could not have been more wrong! Bought a middle of the pack Whirlpool, I think we spend around $500. Complete junk. I had to use our Sears home warranty like 6 times. They replaced two times the computer board, all the sensors another couple of times, motor, you name it! Worst part is that all of the non essentials part that also broke off (wheels, and plastic pieces of the door) were not covered by Sears warranty so I had to end up using glue and all kind of contraptions to keep them together. Finally, when we decided to put our house in the market we replaced this junk with a Bosch. So far so good. Whirlpool actually never even washed properly, now with the Bosch we finally know what it means to have a dishwasher that really washes for real!
WTW8000BW0 washer - This is the worst washer I have ever brought. We bought a pair washer and dryer. The washer started making noise when it was in spin cycle so we called repairman. He came and said it would be better if got rid of it and bought something else. Said it would cost too much to fix and hes seen too many of these. The noise is so loud we close door on laundry room and we cant hear TV in front room. This is the worse junk we have ever brought. Whirlpool should be accountable for this.
I have had my whirlpool oven for approximately 6 years. This will be the 3rd time I have had to replace the thermal fuse. For the last three times I have used the auto clean, it blows out the fuse. It has cost me $110.00 each time I called my appliance tech to replace the fuse.
Im very frustrated. I bought a Whirlpool Refrigerator for nearly $1300 in Sept. 11. It is a side-by-side Model #ED5KVEXVL00. The refrigerator side started warming up to the point that we noticed. We put a thermometer inside to confirm; it went up to nearly 60 degrees. We tried cleaning any dust underneath from the coils and even unplugged it for a while. The compressor appears to be the potential problem. Sears is not sending a repair guy for 2 WEEKS (It is a hot July here in NY)!!!!We are saddened that Whirlpool says it is out of the one-year warranty - so now we are facing the choice of a large repair bill or buying a new refrigerator. What a waste of money... Its not even 2 years and it needs service or a dumpster. Shame on Whirlpool for not standing up for customers when clearly there is something wrong with this machine so close to the warranty and so new. Sears and Whirlpool - youve lost me as a future appliance customer!!! :(
After the pilot light on my water heater would no longer stay lit, I contacted the Whirlpool technical support number listed on the unit only to be told my unit was still under warranty, but I would be responsible to pay a $65 diagnostic fee and any labor associated with a repair. The technician came and said my ventilation system was the problem and didnt even touch the unit. He then sent a report to Whirlpool that the unit was flooded which voided my warranty. He did not submit photos to substantiate his water damage claim and now Im being told the unit is unsafe and must be replaced at my expense. This all sounds like collusion to not honor the warranty! I will never purchase a Whirlpool product again!
Aqualift Self Cleaning - JUNK! JUNK! JUNK! The oven does NOT heat properly and it is NOT self-cleaning. Whirlpool should be ashamed of itself. We ALL need a refund. Class Action suit looming. DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!
I purchased a Whirlpool washing machine from PC Richards in Lake Grove 15 months ago. I paid $590.00. I had to call PC Richards back because it sounded like the machine was not spinning right. The servicemen came back and said nothing was wrong. It was supposed to sound like that. Now the machine stopped draining and spinning. I went to the store and they handed me customer service numbers and said they could not help me. I contacted Whirlpool online and received a phone call from a woman that gave me a lesson on how to load the machine and put soap in it! She was a very polite woman, but, gee, that didn’t solve my problem.After 4 days I was able to get through by phone and was told to call service. I contacted Mahler Appliance. He looked at it and said he couldn’t fix it and took a check for $81.47. He told me to call Whirlpool. I called Whirlpool again and got their service people. The gentleman came and could not figure out what was wrong. He tried a few things and said it was probably the main board. He said to call Whirlpool, but they most likely won’t give me back my money. He could charge me $460.00 for a new board per his supervisor. I just paid $590.00 for the machine and another $87.00 to some guy who took advantage. He left with an $87.00 check and I still have a broken washer. He did tighten up a loose wire he said he found and told me to try it and good luck. So I tried it. I put clothes in and turned it on.I came back about 20 minutes later to see if it continued to run and I slipped and fell on the ceramic floor because water drained out from somewhere and went all over my floor. I have injured my back and elbow from hitting the hard floor. I also have water all over the place and finally a very broken defective washer. I am angry. I hurt myself and have spent close to $1000.00 and I still have no working washer and no way to buy another one. The washer is 15 months old. That’s brand new to me. There was obviously a problem from the beginning. Whirlpool has always had a quality name for years. I would hope that they would stand by their product and fix my washer for me. It is obviously defective.
Whirlpool refrigerator - I purchased $6950.93 in Whirlpool products in one day last year at HH GREGG in Lexington, Ky. The refrigerator was purchased on that day September 18, 2012 and my kitchen wasnt going to be ready until December, but I wanted all items bought for measurements (specs) for the new kitchen designer. HH GREGG delivered to my garage October 26, 2012 because they couldnt hold any longer, but when we purchased that day they promised to hold till December when my kitchen would be finished. I have Proof from the kitchen installers the day they finished, December 28, 2012, was the day the appliances were installed. Well here I sit typing this letter on January 7, 2014 and my Whirlpool refrigerator is as of right now is in need of a compressor while losing approx $1000.00 in purchased food. In other words, approximately $900.00 in repair cost. Isnt Whirlpool a large enough company to stand behind its products when I paid $2599.00 for this refrigerator for at least one year from installation instead of purchase date? My fiancee has been trying to work out a solution with Whirlpool and the parts are on back order now. For at least two weeks we have been without a refrigerator and have two young children. Doesnt it show that the parts being on back order from Whirlpool, barely being a year old prove the defective product is being sold to the public daily? I plan on going further with this action due to the name Whirlpool all over my kitchen which disgusts me. Im going to write every columnist I can and do all I can with what little resources I have against this large company if no one helps us. This is absolutely an injustice against consumers...
I purchased the Whirlpool Quiet Partner II dishwasher, Model DU1055XTVQ0, Serial # FY3762359. The racks are cheaply made and rusting! Almost all of the tips on the racks are rusting, causing them to corrode and break off completely! This dishwasher is well under 5 years old. Not sure what we paid for this machine but the racks should not be doing this after this short length of time. They shouldnt be doing this after any length of time.I called Whirlpools customer support center today and was told there is nothing they could do. The support agent asked if I had hard water, if so, that could be causing the problem (I dont have hard water). The agent stated that they do not cover rusting racks nor would they replace them, now I see why. They are expensive to replace. As of now, I will not be buying another Whirlpool appliance - ever! They just lost a dissatisfied customer due to their very poor quality and customer service.
My Whirlpool dishwasher washes dishes well, when it drain but it will not drain. I purchased insurance repair service from AIG. AIG is a total rip off. I paid them over $300. I have called many many times. They promise someone will call but not one ever has. I would never work with AIG or Whirlpool ever again.
My dishwasher was only 18 months old when the rack adjuster broke causing the top rack to collapse. I researched and was able to order the replacement part which now comes only in metal. (The original Whirlpool piece was cheap plastic.) I spent $40 for the new part and spent several hours installing it without any help from Whirlpool. Then when I tried to use my dishwasher it wouldn’t run. Repair person came out and diagnosed it with a pump assembly failure. Part alone was $222 and it was on back order. Extremely disappointed. I have tried to contact Whirlpool to see if they would at least offer me a discount on the part. Their customer service number is never available. On hold for so long I finally gave up. Maybe I just got a lemon but I will not go with any Whirlpool product again.
May 4 I ordered a washer and it was to be delivered on the 21st and on the 20th a salesperson calls me to say my ordered washer is out of stock and she gives me a substitution washer that wont ship to me until june 20th a month away even though I already had been waiting a month, I was very upset and said, I wont accept it but let me think about it, I thought there must not be anything sooner (BIG MISTAKE). So I called back and accepted but after getting off the phone looked online and found a washer that would be delivered on May 28th and it was just delivered no problem but now no one at WHIRLPOOL can find the subbed order to cancel and give me my refund from the out of stock washer... So I have paid for 2 washers and every time I try to get help I have an hour wait to get a person. I am a 65 yr old woman who has been put thru so much stress and it is not good for my health. All I want to do is cry.
Just bought this washer, its making a lot of noise, sounds like something is grinding (metal, gears, etc). I thought Whirlpool was suppose to be good. I just had my Maytag go out after 18 years of service, thought about getting another Maytag but found out Whirlpool makes those. As many complaint as I see, seems there needs to be a class action lawsuit against Whirlpool for shoddy work.
My wife and I purchased the Whirlpool French Door Bottom Mount Refrigerator in April 2013. Thank God we purchased the extended warranty. In June 2014 the ice maker quit working and delivering water. We have had the service contractor that WHIRLPOOL has qualified for all repairs. They have set up FIVE appointments to resolve the issue, all of which I had to leave work to meet because they do not provide any scheduled service outside the hours of 8am to 4pm. The first time they came the service man told me that WHIRLPOOL RECOGNIZES THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW BECAUSE THESE ARE NOTORIOUS FOR FREEZING UP AND NOT WORKING. I asked the repair man if there has been a recall because of this, he said no because WHIRLPOOL WILL JUST REPAIR THE ONES PEOPLE COMPLAIN ABOUT! I called Whirlpool headquarters today. The advisor said he will register my complaint. I asked, Is that it? What does that mean? He said, I cant tell you what happens after I register the complaint. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER WHIRLPOOL PRODUCT. I hope this may help someone NOT make the same mistake. If you need to talk to someone in upper level management to discuss your issue, forget it...they want the position but no accountability.
I thank the folks at Whirlpool for building a washer (Cabrio tub bearing failure) that lasted 22 days just shy of four years, better than the Whirlpool Duet that lasted 14 months, tub bearing failure also. Now I have high confidence that Whirlpool pre-engineers failure into every washer they build.
I bought a Whirlpool washing machine last year. Exactly after one year the bearing problem and noise starts from it. So I do not recommend this machine to anybody because of this bad experience and also high service cost.
I recently purchased a top of the line self-cleaning Whirlpool/KitchenAid range. Or so I thought. I used the self-cleaning feature for the first time only to find out it literally does not do anything. Whirlpool quickly answered my Saturday morning phone call and were very professional. When I told them the Aqualift did not work, they asked if I purchased the Aqualift kit. No, what does it contain? Two sponges and a scraper. Basically I was told I would have to clean the oven manually. That would be fine except I have osteoarthritis and cannot clean it manually. Shame on Whirlpool and KitchenAid and Consumer Reports for not doing their due diligence and not testing important features accurately, over a greater period of time with real day-to-day scenarios with people who actually know what they are doing.
I purchase a suite of Whirlpool Kitchen Appliances April 2017. My range is the slide in model. The knobs are on the front of the stove top. I 4 months in I saw that the paint behind the plastic panel where the knobs are was chipping. Also, the gasket in the oven had some loose threads so I finally decided to call the warranty. Whirlpool paid for the gasket to be replaced but Customer service said the chipping was cosmetic and that only covered for 30 days. I am so disappointed in this range and Whirlpool. My stove looks very used after 10 months. I followed the instructions on what to clean it with and how to clean so I know its not me. The paint chipping is crazy! How as consumers do we deal with this? This Range was a cost over $2000! and they give me touch-up paint!I purchased Whirlpool because I researched prior to purchasing my appliances. I thought I was buying Quality, this is not quality! At Christmas I had a pot of potatoes boil over and the element circle on the glass top cam off with cleaning. This too is not covered because its cosmetic. Ironically, my old glass top Whirlpool range did the same thing. That why I got a new one! I guess it still works. Who cares how it looks... RIGHT? Well, I WAS a good Whirlpool customer. Not anymore! Do not purchase Whirlpool glass top ranges unless you want it to look worn out after less than one year. I have tried to post pictures but this wont let me paste them!
Whirlpool 5.3 Cabrio. This was the worst experience ever with a washing machine. My first cabrio did not work at all. My second one gave out after 2 weeks. It would not spin. I got my money back and would not recommend this washer.
I HATE, HATE, HATE the aqua lift clean feature. Its awful. The bottom came somewhat clean but cook bacon and the sides and top are filthy and the aqua lift cant clean that. I dont know how this ever made it past the thought process stage to become a thing but it needs to go away. Im quite cranky right now as Ive just spent two hours scrubbing my oven while reaching past the oven door that doesnt come off because its a self-clean oven. This is what I have to look forward to for the next 10 years until it dies and I can get a new oven? What a joke!!
Whirlpool and their extended warranty is a ripoff! I bought a Whirlpool refrigerator not even two years ago. It has stopped working 4 or 5 times, causing us to lose all our food. When it is working, it makes an awful noise. I have renewed my contract with A&E due to the fact that the frig is a lemon; which A&E is a joke as well. I contacted them 2 weeks ago about the frig not working again. They stated they could not come until Sept 18th, a month later. Come on. Really. They are a ripoff as well as Whirlpool appliances. False advertising is against the law. I also contacted the merchant where the frig was purchased in Hazlehurst GA, who does not care one way or the other. If whirlpool was as great as they seem to think their appliances are, they would replace this lemon in my kitchen. We are elderly and are not able to keep dealing with this issue. I would never ever recommend a Whirlpool appliance to anyone. As a matter of fact, I will tell everyone I know not to purchase one; due to the way your company has treated me and my wife.
Whirlpool Refrigerator model #GI6FARXXY0 - Bought this refrigerator at Las Vegas Store #3305 Home Depot, 12/07/2012. July 2014, the ice maker stops working. I replace it with another Whirlpool ice maker and that one stops and leaks water from the dispenser all over my floor. Im on my 3rd ice maker and its not working! I have no warranty but still...a refrigerator should last longer than this at these prices. Im trying to research problems with this refrigerator and it looks like now the refrigerator model has been discontinued! Cant find anything on it. I paid close to $1,800.00 and it lasted 1 year 1/2? Its turning into a money pit. My question is... after looking at all of the complaints concerning ice makers and water leaks on Whirlpool refrigerators... why hasnt Whirlpool addressed this problem with a recall?? Obviously, these ice makers are faulty even the ones you replace them with. The repairman told me there are no warranties and they would not take returns on them. Whirlpool knows there is a problem and doesnt address it. Consumers should be protected from businesses that know of problems and refuse to take care of them with customers. They are still selling faulty Whirlpool ice makers??? I paid extra to have a working ice maker and expected it to last more than a year and half for the price of this French Door, bottom freezer, refrigerator did. The doors look terrible as they do not clean nicely and leave streaks. From the looks of some of these complaints, this may only be a beginning of problems with this appliance. Totally disappointed in this product. I know I wont be looking at any more Whirlpool products. Im disgusted with their faulty products and no accountability. If theres a recall, count me in!
We have had Whirlpool front loading washers for 15 years. The first had a bad bearing problem, that was eventually fixed, but still disappointing. The second doesnt is missing some features that the old one had. All and all I am happy with this washers and do not know of anything better, within my price range.
Whirlpool Water Heater FG1F4040S3NOV - I had this water heater installed in 2005 by a professional plumber and every year since like clockwork, I have to replace the gas control valve/thermostat. Last year, Sears came and did the work and made their arrangements to have the part replaced. This year 2012, March 9 my gas control valve went again. The unit is not even a year old and broke again. Unfortunately, the six-year warranty is up on the hot water tank. I called Whirlpool two times. The first time, the guy told me that the warranty was up and hung up on me! The second time, the guy would not honor the replacing of a part that is not even a year old yet. The money I spent over the six years making repair on it, I could have bought a new one. This company is nothing but a bunch of **. Is there anything that I can do? I have paid to replace this five years in a row.
I bought the WTW4815EW0 Whirlpool washer. Worse machine ever! It’s take forever to wash a load, there’s no way it’s efficient when it takes twice as long to wash one load. It doesn’t sense the water level correctly, Its noisy, and after only having it 3 years it crashed on me. I refuse to waste money fixing the piece of junk and when I go to purchase a new one it won’t be a Whirlpool.
Brand new dishwasher never worked. After getting the runaround from Bethel Park Home Depot. I was told I had to call Whirlpool. After being on hold 3 separate times for more than 12 minutes each time, they scheduled a repairman in a weeks time. He said the motor was bad and had to order. Wont be back out until after Christmas. I asked Whirlpool to replace this lemon. Customer service told me they never replace if they can fix. What if something else is wrong? They didnt care. Very rude. Told me manager would tell me the same thing. Never buy Whirlpool. Appliances are faulty and customer service rude. This has been a nightmare experience. Feeling very helpless at this point.
I replaced my hot water heater after 22 years and no problems. We got a 50 gal. gas heater from Lowe’s in 6/2008. In 1/2012, we had no pilot light and an alarm on high temp sensor. Whirlpool sent a new sensor and control valve to replace the bad unit. Here we go again, on 3/2013 - same parts same problems. We now have the cost again to have the parts installed for the second time. I have spent 1/2 the cost to have the parts put in than the cost for the heater. I will never pay for any Whirlpool product again. They are plain junk!
I love my stove and all of its features. My stove is easy to clean and I Love the self cleaning oven. I have a flat top so that helps when it comes to cleaning, not to mention it makes cooking a breeze. I love all the push buttons and how smart my stove is. I highly recommend my Whirlpool to anyone looking for a great appliance.
We purchased our 4 French door refrigerator on 1/22/15. It started making a loud noise, like an air compressor. It continue to get louder and louder over a period of a couple of days. Called the dealer where it was purchased and a repairman was not available for another week. When the repairman showed up and diagnosed the problem which was a leak in the freezer causing ice and the fan to hit the ice, they were not equipped to fix that type of problem. We were advised to call Whirlpool consumer dept. which we did, and was advised they would send out another repairman and would be another week. Have had to move food and freezer items out of refrigerator. Two and one half weeks and no solution. Five month old refrigerator that is not usable. Very disappointed in product and service.
This is truly a piece of junk! My water heater is 2 1/2 years old and the pilot light will not stay on. Was told that I needed a thermal coupler and paid $30 for shipping. Installed it and still the pilot light will not stay on. Was told again that I needed to replace the main control. Another $30 for shipping. Had that installed and the pilot light stayed on but no hot water. The light was blinking 4x (temperature too hot). WHAT!!? ALL I GOT WAS COLD WATER! Now I was told I need to replace the temperature sensor and they wanted another $30! I told them to I was going to junk it and buy a different brand.
I just finished reading multiple complaints that sound very similar to my experience in 2014. I bought a fridge for a rental unit in Oct. 2013. The freezer malfunctioned and froze up in back, 6/2014. Had multiple repairs with the problem going unfixed. After a couple of months with my renter without a fridge and laborious system requiring multiple phone calls on my part to get an exchange approved. The exchange went thru. It was delivered the am of Sept 11. Guess what? It was dented on the side. The delivery personnel thought is was prior reject and it was an attempt to get me to accept it as is with a small cost reduction off the original purchase price. NO thank you! So still no fridge from Whirlpool as of 9/13/14 that is functioning from Whirlpool and yet to have a call back from Whirlpool regarding the mishap. No apology, no remorse, just the way they do business. I will say that my local HOME DEPOT was willing to send me a loaner fridge for my renter for his garage. NOT ideal but better than nothing and quite nice of them and an example of what customer service should be! Thank You HOME DEPOT! SHAME ON WHIRLPOOL! Not sure how this will end but obviously is common them after reading the reviews. I am now concerned if they do replace it again with an undamaged fridge it will repeat the same dysfunction pattern and I will have to go this painful process all over again! EEEEK. Refrig WRT771REYBOO, VS33469859 BTW I had to pay for spoilage of food for my rent on multiple occasions because the repairs work for a week or so and my renter would stock up the fridge and it would go out and he would lose food. Whirlpool gave me a 50 food spoilage card after much complaining bc go figure the warranty does not cover food spoilage but apparently the extended does. Go figure?
Greetings: I purchased a Whirlpool refrigerator on July 3, 2014. And the supports for the door to open and closed have grinded and worn out - not allowing the door to close properly, requiring being lifted up, and pushed close as much as possible. Not the quality I expected with the purchase of a Whirlpool product. I want this door repaired or replaced at the expense of Whirlpool. Having paid over $600.00 for the product, I didnt expect no problems like this at all, poor design. The weight of the door is too heavy to support a hinge mount in plastic, its ridiculous. Now cooling is being wasted, runs constantly, and just not the quality I expected nor received.
Havent had any issues with it. Works great but does end up off balanced quite easily and halfway across the garage. Washes clothes like a maid. Is kinda small for bedding.
