WTW4915EW - Whirlpool Top Load Washer , shot with Panasonic AG-HVX200

[@coolrobuxgaming]

The spin basket on this washer looks like mine, looks like a newer version of the Whirlpool WTW4900BW, but without a black control panel. This machine doenst have the fabric softener setting because this washer was made in 2015 where on Whirlpool all cycles did a deep rinse. This washer has the second generation spin basket and the second generation gearcase, this video was made in 2017 so this washer is probably either from 2016 or 2017. The gearcase was replaced by 3rd generation in 2017, and the basket was replaced by the 3rd generation in 2018.

I have the exact same machine.

[@coolrobuxgaming]

I have the WTW4900BW0 washer, tub looks the same, but it’s an older model and it has bad bearings

[@LlyleHunter]

This looks much better than the Brovos X that I'd used in a guest house I had vacationed in some years ago. That machine used one third the water that this did and when the load was finished everything was in knots and one of my shirts was piled and ruined. I'm glad to see that they've improved upon this matter but as a former dry cleaner I'll stick with front loaders.

This washer model does not do the spray rinse, it has deep rinse even on normal and quick wash

[@cbbnetwork2]

Where did you buy this washing machine

[@homeguestunton]

This particular model number has been discontinued and can not be bought in new condition. If you want this model machine, you have to get it used.

[@Babymamavideos]

For impeller washers, make sure you can see the center of the impeller

[@Korbllox]

We’re just sell it and get a good old 1990s whirl pool with agitator

[@oreotcat]

Very nice! Looks and sounds similar to the GE impeller machine you posted. Except the GE has a longer wash arc and the recirculating water. Never could figure out why Whirlpool doesn't put that feature in these machines. It would help them clean better and soak clothes better, especially during lower water modes.

JoeyPete i just posted a video on that washer. check it out and let me know what u think :)

[@videolover2014]

Despite this only 1 Video here with the Whirlpool Washer WTW4915EW, out of curiosity, when & is there a possibility for you to do some more Videos of this Washer, especially if 1 of them were to be an Overload Test or so? I mean, it’d be nice to see some more Videos of this Washer on here 1 day, if you still have it that is. 🙂

[@rebeccaavey5746]

What are your thoughts on using this washer on a well water system? Will the washer work correctly?

[@kirkrivas8172]

I assume particulates will clog the inlet water valve on the washer. Speed Queen washers should work even if you have low water pressure due to blockage. Even the current digital control boards will still function correctly with low flow. Many of the other branded machines will through an error code if you have low water pressure, basically taking too long to fill the tub. I have no experience with well water setups.

[@rainbou5259]

I enjoyed your video, it's helpful for those of us shopping around. Do you have the lid on during this video? I was wondering if you are able to add detergent after the water fills the basin.

[@kirkrivas8172]

The lid switch was tricked so that the machine thinks that the door is closed. The use and care guide says to add detergent prior to adding clothes. I don't think you can add soap after it fills because the machine is trying to maintain a calculated portion of water based on load size. Thanks to locking lids, many of us need to alter our washing habits.

[@videolover2014]

Next time you see this Washer or do some more Videos of it or so, do you think that you can request this Video for me of the Washer running with these Settings? ↙️ Cycle: Deep Water Wash or Heavy Duty Presoak: On Soil Level: Heavy Wash Temperature: Warm Rinse Options: 2 Rinses

[@borregoimages8117]

The unit looks like it does a half way decent job at turning over clothes. What cycle did you use on this load?

[@kirkrivas8172]

It was a deep water wash cycle with exta rinse and medium soil. In my opinion there was a decent amount of water for this type of washer to achieve a noticeable amount of turn over. I started a load on a normal cycle and noticed right away there was very little water and the clothes were rubbing directly on the impeller and roll over was less obvious. This machine is obsolete now and I hesitated on posting the video. I have a new version on order and will film it when it arrives.

[@borregoimages8117]

***** Yeah, we have the current one in our store. We don't sell too much of it because the similar machine Kenmore 25132 usually beats it in terms of price... but hey, why not post it I'm sure someone is selling it at a garage sale and would love to see it in action. I think you did well. 🙂

How to use the spin only

[@kirkrivas8172]

Select "Drain & Spin" cycle. It's located at the 7 o'clock position on the main knob.

What’s the point of putting clothing in a washer when there’s no soap in the washer?

[@WasherBoy2016]

Why did you leave your business card in there?

[@kirkrivas8172]

it was on the lid, it slid in when I opened the lid. There should be two cards in there I think. I'll check it in the morning.

@@kirkrivas8172 I think it would wash better if the impeller fins were a little bigger that way it would have a better impact you know.

Gotta "love" those plastic gears. :/ That noise is so annoying.

[@Thedonsmoney25823]

Why everytime i watch kirk riavs or any other videos and then i see you just stop talking for a while

[@lizboz]

Wah, wah, wah, waaaaah!!!! I just couldn't help but crack myself up at the sounds of that motor during agitation, and the "agitation" itself! That drain pump is ridiculously slow when "pumping out the water and the clothes down the drain." The "braking system" on that is also pathetic, because what it does is energize the motor in the _opposite direction_ when the tub is still coasting down, and that just means another thing to break overtime! Why can't Whirlpool at least use a good old-school traditional braking mechanism that WORKS, and get rid of that lid lock? That's on DEEP FILL??? HAHA, wow! And that last agitation cycle, as well as the time it takes in total, says it all for this thing. The point is, more user-friendly features and China Pride parts and fancy electronics mean poor cleaning ability, less reliability and bigger costs for the buyer.

[@YourLocalFireAlarmTech]

Washers today are still horrible LOL. I'll stick with the old washers that are built to last.

[@lizboz]

Totally with ya man...

[@BroccoliBeefed]

lizboz . What are you bitching about? There is a decent amount of water in that tub.

Kirk Rivas, I like your videos but I don’t like this washer. I’ve had whirlpool direct and belt driven, they were great. This is no better than the 2018 speed queen. Shame on you whirlpool. The only good washer you make is the Amana. I just wish the Amana had a heavy duty motor and heavy duty belt etc. even so, when I am ready to buy it will still be the Amana.see whirlpool you can still make a good washer.
