Pretty impressive on several counts

Pros Economical water use; cleans well; large capacity yet small size overall.
Cons No bleach dispenser; no temperatures indicated on control panel; vibrates during spin on...
Recommended it? Yes

If you don’t go look at the Whirlpool LHW0050PQ and its matching dryer (electric only), you wouldn’t guess it’s made in Italy. It is identical to the EuroTech EWF272 washer with the only differences being slight trim details and labeling terminology on the dials. It has exactly the same capacity,... Read full review »

Finally a good machine

bysimomart Apr 6, 2009

Pros Everything
Cons None for now.
Recommended it? Yes

I just bought this machine at the Sears outlet in Baltimore, and I use it for support to the big GE 6400 model, which has spinning problems since day one.
This is the major reason why I own two washers, because my GE has so many problems trying to balance the load before the spin cycle that... Read full review »

Run away! Run away!

Pros The vibration didn`t send it crashing into the condo below ours.
Cons See  above.
Recommended it? No

We bought the (first) washer from the clowns at Lowes in October 2005.  The first few loads threatened to put the thing through the floor with vibration. Lowes replaced the washer. The replacement vibrated as badly.  We were told the floor wasn`t level so we removed the washer/dryer and had a new... Read full review »

A great little washer

bytremblant May 22, 2006
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 2 Comments
Pros Great capacity (for a couple), uses little water, gentle on clothes, small size.
Cons Length of wash cycle, few optional cycles.
Recommended it? Yes

We had been searching for a small capacity front-loading washer for some time. None of our local suppliers stocked them and I was unwilling to place a special order without first-hand knowledge of each machine's strengths and weaknesses. Whirlpool has a great overall reputation and, after having... Read full review »

Buyer Beware! Broke after four weeks and only six loads!

bymbotney Oct 27, 2005
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 4 Comments
Pros Fast, great capacity, compact feature allows me to keep it in my closet
Cons Broke after only six loads and can't seem to be fixed.
Recommended it? No

I have two small children, one of which is a newborn, so the idea of a small-capacity washer upstairs was heaven to me. We did some research and while there were some bad reviews about this machine, there were some very good ones too. So we decided to purchase this model and its matching dryer. Let...

Great Features for the money

byphilbaum Sep 20, 2005
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? 1 Comment
Pros Water heater, 1200 rpm, no significant lint, good washing results
Cons Temps can only be adjusted by selecting wash modes which use hot, warm, cold.
Recommended it? Yes

We've had this machine for two months now and consider it to be a great choice for my wife and I. We've had only 1 problem with it, the power switch wouldn't stay on at the two week point. I had an extended warranty contract with Lowes and they paid an independent contractor to come out and fix the... Read full review »

Seems this washer has been revamped

byandrewinnyc Sep 8, 2008
11 Helpfuls 12 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Cleans extremely well, very quiet, uses very little water and detergent ,heating element...
Cons takes a few minutes to start up, front of the cabinet is not flush
Recommended it? Yes

I bought this washer despite some bad consumer reviews, because it received good marks from testing labs. It seems this model has been revamped, because it is now called the 50P and not 50PQ.

I have used it now for a while, and I have to say it cleans VERY well. You have to get used to some... Read full review »

Pros small footprint, washes well, very little water use, very quiet, 12k RPM spin
Cons no bleach dispenser, no overt water temperature control, uneven loads will shake during...
Recommended it? Yes

We bought this washer with its companion dryer roughly 7 months ago. After doing some research, we found a "standard size" front-load washer/dryer combo would not fit where we were intending to put them. Our house was built before the front-load washers really became widely available in the USA, so... Read full review »

There Should be a Law Against This Machine

Pros Energy Star rated
Cons vibrates horribly; constant breakdowns; poor service from Whirlpool and its authorized...
Recommended it? No

I purchased this washer and matching dryer from Lowes in July of 2005, and the frustrations began a month later. The machine sits on a concrete slab floor but vibrated so badly that the dryer (stacked on top) threatened to topple off every time I ran a load. I phone Whirlpool's Customer Experience...

I love this machine!

Pros I found out how efficient these machines are, as the clothes come out very dry.
Cons I found out the hard way that there is no bleach dispenser.
Recommended it? Yes

We have had this machine now for almost a year. We bought ours a Lowe's. We wanted a smaller only 27" wide, front loading washer to fit in a closet in our Recreational Vehicle. We needed something that used only a little water and this one seemed to be one of the better ones. It does shake a bit... Read full review »
