Whirlpool 27" Top Load Washer- WTW5000DW1

The Whirlpool 27” Top Load Washer, model WTW5000DW1, is a high-efficiency top-loading washing machine engineered to provide thorough yet gentle cleaning.

Key Features and Specifications:

• Type: This is a top-load washer, meaning that laundry is loaded into the machine from the top.

• Design: It features a classic top-load configuration with controls situated on the rear panel, presented in a white finish. This appliance is not designed for stacking.

• Capacity: The washer offers an approximate capacity of 4.3 cubic feet. This substantial volume is designed to accommodate larger loads, such as more than two baskets of laundry, including bulky items like comforters.

• Wash System & Technology:

  • Low-Profile Impeller: Unlike traditional agitators, this impeller presents a smooth surface with unique vanes. These vanes effectively drive clothes from the outer rim towards the center of the wash basket, where the most intense cleaning action occurs. This design also provides more space within the drum for clothes to move freely, enhancing cleaning performance and promoting gentle fabric care.

  • Automatic Water Levels: This feature automatically regulates the amount of water used based on the detected size of the laundry load, ensuring that only the necessary amount of water is utilized for effective cleaning, which increases efficiency.

  • Deep Water Wash Cycle: This specific cycle adds a larger volume of water to the wash tub, which aids in breaking down loose soils and improves the ability to rinse away dirt and residues.

  • Advanced Vibration Control™: This feature is designed to minimize noise and vibration during the appliance's operation, contributing to a quieter laundry environment.

• Cycles & Settings:

  • 12 Wash Cycles: Offers a comprehensive range of cycles for different fabric types and soil levels, including: Normal, Deep Water Wash, Cold Wash, Casual, Heavy Duty, Delicates, Bulky Items, Quick Wash (capable of washing small loads rapidly), Soak (which adds extra soaking time before the main wash cycle), a Clean Washer cycle, Drain & Spin, and Rinse & Spin.

  • 5 Temperature Settings: Provides options for Cold, Cool, Hot, Tap Cold, and Warm water temperatures. Automatic Temperature Control is integrated.

  • 4 Soil Levels: Includes Extra Light, Light, Medium, and Heavy settings to customize the cleaning intensity.

  • 2 Spin Speeds: It operates at 2 spin speeds, reaching a maximum of approximately 660 revolutions per minute (RPM). This speed is designed to efficiently extract a significant amount of water from clothes, thereby contributing to shorter drying times.

• Drum Material: The interior wash basket is constructed from Smooth Wave Stainless Steel. This material is designed to gently guide clothes during the wash and help protect fabrics from fraying and snagging.

• Dispensers: Includes an automatic Bleach Dispenser. A separate fabric softener dispenser is typically not present in this specific model.

• Controls: The washer is operated via mechanical knobs for selecting cycles and temperatures, complemented by cycle indicator lights that provide feedback on the wash progress.

• Power Requirements: The appliance operates on a standard 120-volt, 60-Hertz electrical connection, requiring a 15-amp circuit.

• Efficiency: Designed as a High-Efficiency washer.
