Whirlpool Duet Sport WFW8300SW

The Whirlpool Duet Sport WFW8300SW is a lower model front loading washing machine which fits at the bottom of the Duet Sport product line. The ultra capacity stainless steel was basket can handle 10 pairs of jeans in a single load, while its front load design and automatic water level control conserves water and energy making it Energy Star qualified. There are 7 factory pre-set wash cycles and options, including a cycle for  quick wash, delicates and whitest whites to name a few, and also features a three-tray dispenser which releases detergent, bleach and fabric softener at appropriate times in the cycle. An innovative suspension system reduces vibration during operation, in which the wash basket reaches a maximum spin speed of 1,050 RPM. The quiet wash technology uses a sound-absorbing pad on the front of the cabinet helping reduce operational noise. Other features include child lockout and optional storage pedestals, laundry tower and worksurface. The WFW8300SW is available in a "white with gray accents" finish. The matching dryers for this washer are the electric WED8300SB/SE/SW or gas WGD8300SB/SE/SW duet sports dryers, which come in the matching "white with gray accents", as well as in "Ocean Blue" and "Black-on-Black". There is an optional stacking kit which allows a stackable installation of the washer and dryer.

Had less than one month and started leaking under the door. Replacing with a new one and have yet to see how it measures up. Long wash time for regular loads.
