I love my Whirlpool Washer and Dryer.  They are my most favorite appliances in my home – and I use them almost every day!  As a single mama to three active little boys, our home life gets pretty dang busy!  My Whirlpool Duet Front-Loading Washer and Dryer definitely simplify our home life.  How does it simplify my life?  Well, these awesome appliances efficiently wash and dry my clothes, cutting down on the time I would have spent with other appliances.  I love that I can combine large loads in my washer and dryer, which helps me to finish the laundry more quickly.  This gives me more time to spend with my boys – whether it’s watching television, playing video games, or reading stories.  My time would have been spent on multiple loads of laundry, separating colors from whites, and then folding and putting away these different loads of laundry.  Plus, it helps to teach my boys responsibility!  Yep, even my boys like helping when it comes to laundry time!

I believe that Whirlpool knows how important family time is and that is why they have come up with a signature design that enhances and simplifies the way we use appliances.  These appliances are designed to be so advanced….it becomes simple.  I actually look forward to doing my laundry, whereas before, it was a task that I just had to do to keep our home running.

WHIRLPOOL DUET WASHER AND DRYER (MODEL # WFW96HE AND WE/GD96HEA)

Duet Washer (Model #WFW96HE)

The ENERGY STAR qualified 4.3 cu. ft. capacity washer uses up to 83% less water and up to 85% less energy and saves over $2,200 in lifetime water and energy costs (CEE Tier 3 rated).

Load.  Leave.  Love.  – Finally there’s a washer that makes doing laundry on your own time easy.  Thanks to the Precision Dispense Ultra dispenser and the FanFresh option with Dynamic Venting Technology, these models clean better using less detergent and keep clothes fresh until you’re ready to throw them in the dryer.  Not only do clothes remain fresh, they also start drying right in the washer!

Precision Dispense Ultra – makes the laundry process easier while saving nearly 10% in HE detergent costs.  By adding detergent throughout the length of the fill time, Precision Dispense Ultra delivers better results than adding detergent manually.  The system also releases bleach and fabric softener at the right time during the cycle for optimal fabric care.  The removable cartridge can hold enough detergent for up to 12 loads of laundry in a single filling.

Keeps clothes looking newer longer – Keeps clothes looking newer longer thanks to the Adaptive Clean Wash System with Precision Dispense.

Cold Wash Cycle – Provides the best care for your clothes,* using adaptive wash actions together with a concentrated solution of HE detergent and cold water to gently lift stains and soils from fabrics. The use of cold water to wash like a warm water cycle protects fabrics from heat damage and uses less energy.

12-Hour FanFresh® option with Dynamic Venting Technology® – When selected, a built-in fan automatically activates after the wash cycle is over, tumbling clothes for up to 12 hours so you can wash now and keep clothes fresh until you’re ready to throw them in the dryer later. You can even wash and dry a small load right in the washer* and activate the fan manually to dry out the washer between loads.

Even my boys like helping with the laundry!  Check out my 4 year old helping with the laundry.

Duet Dryer (Model # WE/GD96HEA)

The 7.4 cu. ft. capacity dryer uses up to 82% less water and up to 86% less energy and the New Duet® dryer save $1,100 in lifetime energy costs.

Advanced Moisture Sensing – Three built-in sensors read incoming air temperature and outgoing air temperature while monitoring moisture levels inside the dryer. This helps the drying cycle end when everything is perfectly dry, saving time and energy and helping to prevent over drying.

SilentSteelTM dryer drum – Forget about the sound of metal buttons and zippers making noise as they tumble. The SilentSteelTM dryer drum offers quieter running even when you load items with metal accents. Thanks to a unique sound-dampening material that surrounds the stainless steel dryer drum, metal buttons and zippers will make less noise as they tumble.

    I’m living in an apartment right now, so one of the perks of finally getting a house will be having a great washer and dryer. I totally took my mom for granted back in the early days. The apartment dryers must have a broken sensor.. it spits clothes out wet and wants more money to finish the job.
