Whirlpool
Reviews and Complaints

hi everyone
this is regarding very poor after sales routine service provided by whirlpool india under 3/4 yr service contracts offered by them. first they will lure you into buying the company provided service contracts in the name of warranty like services during the contract duration, especially routine servicing of ac twice a year but then no one will turn up at the time of your requirement even after you have made umpteen calls. they will just listen, register your complaint, say sorry BUT simply not turn up for service. moreover all the numbers will be call center numbers and you will also not even be able to track the right person. so beware of this gimmic. buy the product but not the service contract.

if any one has faced similar problems and found some solution, i will be obliged if you can guide me and send an email at the address.
regards

Once the LEON'S sales man is done with you, have to go to payment area. Where ONCE THEY HAVE YOUR MONEY-TREAT YOU LIKE CRAP! Wouldn't let us have a copy of their "store policy". All staff would just sit on their butts & not get up, just stare at you, being obstinate/ rude. Even the "manager" took his time -couldn't be bothered, talked to us from a doorway! The Whirl Pool Cabrio is loud & 1st load wouldn't fill up with water, clothes on top are dry washing. 2nd load got wet; the towels absorbed the water, then continued to wash with NO water! so called LEON's to complain bout faulty washer. They said NOT THEIR problem, to call WhirlPool. WhirlPool sends over service man (& if service man finds NOTHING wrong, we will be CHARGED for the call) I took VIDEO of all 3 washes. he says can't use NORMAL cycle! have to use BULKY cycle at ALL TIMES! then what is the point of having NORMAL/ CASUAL/ LIGHT cycles; service man said can't use them, wont fill with H20! and the NOISE as it washes- is part of the products system. After two washes & dryer- clothes are STILL DIRTY! WHIRLPOOL WON'T exchange for us! for a different model! and LEON'S WON'T take back or exchange either! so you ARE FORCED TO LIVE WITH TERRIBLE PRODUCTS FOR THE NEXT 10 YRS.! (doubt they will last THAT long!) NO MORE LEON'S & NO MORE WHIRLPOOL! EVER!

I called in June 22nd to have my warm fridge looked at and was told that they only have one service company in the area which is AE Factory service. According to the girl on the phone, they are booked until July 6th. The person said that they were going to send out an email to search for another service company with a better time window and then was told that someone would get back to me within 24 hours as they work on a 6 day work week. I waited the 24hrs and called back the next day only to be told that it takes 1-3 days to find someone to take a look at my case then they determine who to send out to look at the fridge. Finally, I get a call on the 26th and was told that they are trying to find someone to send out if they can't, they would get me a new fridge.

To be honest this did not make much sense to me but at this point anything was better than having no fridge. I waited until 5pm on June 29th and called them again, in which I was told that my case is still under review. I was so livid that I then asked to speak to a supervisor and she said it would take 1-3 days for a supervisor to get back to me.

I am so irritated, and frustrated with the lack of customer service and the protocol procedures that they might as well just buy every single person a new fridge when it craps out because they can't get a single person out to fix it. The process is as follows: The fridge breaks, I call the warranty company, they give me a 24hr window, I call back, they say it's a 72hr window, I call back, they say my case is still pending, I call back again, they say they're trying to get approval to do something but who knows what thatis.

I have now been without a refrigerator for just over a week and everything we had was spoiled.

Lowe's literally has done nothing to help even though they sold us the fridge AND use this warranty company. I also tried to get help from the store level(1198 Woburn ma) and was pushed back to call the 1888 number.

Then to add insult to injury an AE factory service truck was broken down on my street with a flat tire as I go out to dinner with my wife because we have no food in the house. If the guy was going to my house, I had NO idea because I wasn't called, emailed, or contacted in any way. Chances are that it was an odd coincidence that the truck happened to be on my street but seriously? The dude was ON my street and he couldn't call me or AE couldn't tell the guy to swing by? Absolutely abysmal service!

Lowe's has the worst partners and their customer service is atrocious and they just dump customers off onto this horrific service company and expect us to use their services again in the future.

This experience was so terrible that I will NEVER do business with them again and I will make sure I tell all my friends to stay away from them. I will also be calling the consumer affairs department on Monday for stealing my money for the extended protection program which is completely and utterly useless.

improper service of water purifirer. no one come to check it properly.we r taking regularly water bottle from market . we r going through mental harassement

I bought Whirlpool, WASR012k20, 1Ton split AC on 23 April 08, it got delivery on 25 Apil 08 (with chiller unit box being in open state and blower being in packed state, the delivery person told that they check it before delivery) and installed on 26 April 08 without testing (as the person who installed AC do not have time to wait till my electrician to come and fix proper electrical connections). I have specifically asked about the gas in compressor is perfect or not and they said as it's pack pieces will not be an issue. After installation person left, my electrician did proper connection and started AC and found to be working fine (though cooling was not very efficient as compressor found to be on for 4-5 hrs continuously to drop temprature from 31 to 25 degree celcious. The room area is 110 sq ft and 1ton AC is best suitable for 120 sq ft that is what has been told by dealer DASS).

On next day (27 April 08) afternoon i started AC and found that there is no cooling at all and compressor being on for more than 4hrs and temprature being constant at 28 degrees only. I have changed no settings that from yesterday.

Called the person who installed it and he told that he will repair it or if require will replace the unit tomorrow by 12 PM ( I was bit surprised with answer "will replace if required", i have not told anything on replacement, i just wanted to make sure that installation was correct or not). So again called the dealer DASS Elec (its in pune Shastri nagar Yerwada) but not proper answer was given on why this could have happened. They asked to contact person who installed AC. (Was that not dealers duty to contact him and update me, still i did that before they reply like that). They gave no proper answer.

I AM SUFFERING EVEN AFTER PAYING FULL AMOUNT OF RS.20, 000/- PLUS RS.2300/- INSTALLATION CHARGES. NOBODY IS THERE IS ADDRESS THE ISSUE. AND I HAVE NO OPTION LEFT TO WAIT FOR INSTALLATION PERSON TO COME TO MY PLACE. AND FOR WHICH I NEED TO TAKE LEAVE FROM OFFICE AND NEEDS TO BE AT HOME FOR THEM TO COME AND CHECK.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS, WHIRPOOL OR THE DEALER DASS ELEC OR BOTH?

Such as worst experince from that dealer DASS electronics at shastri nagar and do not know how a company like whirpool deliveRs defective piece which work for just 9-10 hrs and then stops functioning as mentioned. Are there any quality checks really happening at Whirlpool? It seems to be big name but no quality deliverable and services.

I am waiting for tomorrow for installation person to come and check it. Suppose if it happens to be prob with unit or with installation can i go to consumer court against whirpool and/or the dealer DAAS electonics for not providing me quality product and service? What is the procedure? Why dealer is not answering my questions properly?

Thanks,

My whirlpool front load washer has been broken now for more than 8 weeks! I have contacted Whirlpool Canada for service and paid their certified technician $118 and still the washer is not repaired. They have even sent me another independent service technician to look at it. The problem seems clear and simple to fix but for some reason they are not able to resolve it; mainly because they are not able to say when the parts will arrive and they keep missing date after date. I also believe that the 1st service company "Platinum" were under qualified and wrongly diagnosed the problem which caused even more delay. I have called today and talked to supervisor and asked him to start a prorated exchange for the washer since it seems not clear on when the parts will arrive but he mentioned that I will have to wait for 2 more weeks on top of the 8 weeks without a washer to process that. I asked him if he could keep the maintenance call open and see which will happen first taking in consideration that they are not able to set a fixed date and it has been that long, but he refused and insisted its one or the other. I am at my wits end and all what I am asking is for an immediate solution as to fix or replace as I believe I have been patent to wait for long enough.
Its a shame how a company like such fails to simply stick to a date to do what seems to be a regular service call.

my name is meenu rathore datta i have a fully automatic whirlpool wasing macine with annual maintatnce package valid up to april 2012 i had complained in whirlpool customer care on 15/11/2011 complain no; DL1111013521 NO ACTION IS TAKEN AND CASE IS CLOSED WITHOUT OUR APPROVAL AGAIN WE HAD COMPLAINED ON 5/12/2011 COMPLAINT NO:DL1211003305 AGAIN THE COMPLAINT WAS NOT ATTENDED AND CLOED WITHOUT OUR KNOWLEDGE OR SATISFACTION CODE, AGAIN COMPLAINT DONE ON 8TH DEC 2011 COMPLAINT NO:DL1211007422 AGAIN NO RESPONSE NOW WE ARE PLAINNING TO GO TO CONSUMER REDRESSAL FORM / CONSUMER COURT IF NO RESPONSE IS MET IN NEXT TWO DAYS------------MEENU RATHORE DATTA MOB NO : [protected]

When I contacted the company today to ask what recourse I have. The customer rep said I should have followed the manual on care. I told him I did, follow all the above and beyond instructions and he basically said he can do nothing. I told him about all the complaints I read about on line and he just would not offer any help. I'm hoping something can be done about this here. At time of purchase no one mentioned any issues with these machines. The extended service plan same issue.

Something has got to be done about all the complaints on the Whirlpool. This is so wrong that we as the consumer can't get the help we need. Whirlpool products are rejects. Whirlpool 50gal tank with a misinformed warranty was purchased in 2008 warranty good for 12 years but having a problem with it. There is to many complaints on products and warranty with no help this is bad business.

We purchased a Whirlpool Refrigerator serial no.INE080400053 Model No.11066 on 26-03-2008 for Rs.35750 vide invoice number 3897KMC from DASS ELECTRIC TRADING CO.(P) LTD. I think you will agree that this a costly and luxury item for a service class and onetime heavy investment. Unfortunately the refrigerator developed problem - no cooling down of the lower compartment. A complaint was lodged at 022-[protected] on 24.9.2009 registered at serial no.PN0909006533. This complaint was attended and a technician opened the appliance and only suggested me to keep the refrigerator closed for 12 hrs and if it do not work he would again come. As it did not work I again called the same technician who directed me to book a complaint again. Accordingly I again booked a complaint on 26.9.09 registered at serial no.PN0909007265. Thereafter I atleast called the service centre, technician, call centre at Bombay, Dass Electric co atleast 50 times when the Service Centre informed that the Censor fitted is not working and it needs replacement. Also informed that the said spare part is not available at Pune and they will place order and as soon as it is received it will be attended. The same person attended, examined
and informed that the PCB needs replacement the cost of which as informed was Rs.1800/-. We agreed to it. That was replaced and we paid the said Rs.1800/-. But the light connection inside has not been given and he has told he would do it on Monday which I hope. This is the state of affairs prevailing in the so called reputed company. Now I regret having purchased a whirlpool refrigerator. t a time I felt like throwing it on the road despite the heavy price paid. I had a Godrej 165 ltrs frg.which gave me trouble free service of 18 yrs and again I had a Godrej ultra which also gave me a trouble free service of 14 years. I have gone through so many complaints about whirlpool frig on this site and I doubt whether any of the public grievance have been attended or not. Now whoever go through this complaint I will request and suggest "never buy whirlpool product". I hope the future generation will go in for an Indian Product like Godrej etc. I hope I will get some response for this grievance.

Starter toner cartridge (approx. 700 pages)
DR-730 drum (approx. 12, 000 pages)

AC power cord
As You Can Read For Yourself, So Since It Stated It Includes A 700 page as Well As A 12, 000 Page Toner/Cartridge /Drum/ I Assumed It Could Be A Typo ! So I Contacted The Chat Dept. to Verify This, I Told Your Chat Rep My Situation What The Description Said and It Could Be A Typo, So Before I Order I Want To Be Sure That I Would Receive Both Cartridges, He Assured Me That Best Buy Was Honorable as I Was Trying To Be and That If I Didn't Receive Both Cartridges in The Box Best Buy Would Definatly Send Me One at No Charge ! I Received the printer and Only 1 Cartridge In The Box, I Contacted The Chat Again and They Said To Take it up with my Local Best Buy, So I Contacted Our Local Best Buy Here In Apple Valley Calif and Talked To The Store MGR Lees Rayes Who Was Rude Disrespectful and Is A Liar ! He Said He Had The Item Description right in front of him and it said it only comes with one 700 page cartridge ! I Told Him Thats Not what it states in the description and He said it did ! I Included Above what it states in the description PLEASE READ IT ! It Does Not State it to Include Only One Cartridge Anywhere ! Furthermore why would it state a 12, 000 page at all for that matter if not included, under whats included ! So This Has Become A Hugh Waste Of My Time And Situation That Has Set A Rise In My Blood Pressure ! Now I'm UPSET ! Please Don't Blame Your First Chat Rep For Assuring Me That Best Buy Would Honor The Second Cartridge if Not Included, He was just Convinced In His Company's Responsible Ethical Standards, He Obviously has not met My Local Store MGR LEES, I Was Honorable And Before Purchasing Questioned The 700 page and 12, 000 page cartridges that it states are included ! So Now I Must Go Buy Another Cartridge, So I Can Finish My Job as well as dealing With This BS ! Im Very Disappointed In Best Buy At This Point, And now must consider Doing Business With You in the future ! here is a copy of the first transcript >>> Please Let Me Know Your Intentions Regarding This Matter !

During this past week I had two problems with Best Buy. 1. I checked for laptops, compared prices and decided to buy in the Woodbridge Store Sony Vaio model VPCCWALFX/L. When I was ready to pay for it I was informed that it was not in stock (it was not a sale item), and I was told that the product was discontinued and they were out of it for some time. Why would they do something like that. I lost very valuable time assuming that if it was on display it was available. I definitely think this is really bad in a store like Best Buy.

2. Nevertheless I continued and since I had already lost so much time I bought another model, this time a HP. They asked me if I wanted to have a backup disk, I accepted, paid for it and was told to pick it up at 7:00 pm that day 20 June 2010. I was there and was told that unfortunately they had not have time to get to it. This was last night. I contacted the supervisor at the store, Naira Arshad, who told me that they were going to call me first thing in the morning as soon as the backup was ready. It is 11:10 am and I still have not received the call. Please note that I have waisted a lot of money. I had planned a trip to New York this morning which I had to cancel because of this. I definitely think that I should be compensated for all the time and money I have lost. I will appreciate if you could contact me.

I bought a 50' LG plasma tv in 2005 and also purchased a 4 year extended warrenty the tv already came with 2 years so that is a total of six years. about a month ago my tv made a pop noise ands completly shut down...it is now 2010 and the warenty isnt supposed to end until 2011 but they are now telling me that it ended in 2009. 4, 000 down the drain!

I went to Best Buy in Sunnyvale, CA on Oct 16th @ 9:45am before the store opens just to get a DVD and two Tranformers Exclusive Toys. There are only two different Transformers toys and I just want to buy one of each but the sales person doesn't want me buy two because it's only one per customer. So told her I'm only buying one of each and it doesn't say "One per customer on your ads. So she called the Store Manager her name is Linda Ruiz and explained her the situation. The manager then check the ads and I was right it doesn't say anything about "One Per Customer" but the manager still doesn't want to sell me one of each toy. She said I can only buy one. So I told her again I'm only buying one of each and I'm not buying two identical items, so that still consider as one per customer. After arguing with her almost 15mins. She ask me "which one you want to buy because you can only buy one. The supply is limited we can only allow one per customer. So I said "I already told you I just want one of each". She rudely pull one toy from my hand and told me "Sir, If you don't want to buy just one I'm asking you to leave". I was so upset drop all the items I was going to buy and left. Another issue is she was allowing one of her employee to complete with the customer by grabbing one of the toy for himself as well. And when I was driving back to work I just realized that I have a two inch cut on my right pointing finger from the plastic case of the toy causing it the way she roughly pulled the plastic case of the toy from my hands.

The issue here was Linda Ruiz doesn't know or understand what is the meaning of "One per Customer". I wasn't buying two identical toys. I was trying two buy two different Transformers Characters. Same thing as buying two DVD's with different titles.
I took off from work, spent gas just to be there on time and this is what I get as a regular customer? Fry's Electronics isn't the best with customer service but never treated me like this.

I would like to address this issue with Best Buy Manager Linda Ruiz of Sunnyvale, CA for being rude and miss treating me as a customer.

Bought a computer acessory for $119.95 plus tax and I paid CASH not credit card .

29 days later I see an ad from Fry's Stores and they have the identical acessory for $79.95.

The next day I called a nice lady in customer service to ask whether I can go to a Best Buy closer to me to go in and get my $40 difference...yes she said..just bring the Fry's ad and your cash register receipt.

That afternoon I went into the Tustin store of Best Buy and the "Customer Specialist" (that's what was on his name tag) said (after 10 minutes of explaining TWICE) that he would "check on it".
5 minutes later he comes back..."I need your phone number" he says. I say no. He then goes somewhere again...now he wants my driver license...to write down the DL number...that was a big NO!
I ask for the store supervisor. Guy appears 10 minutes later...(NO name tag) in a Best Buy shirt. I ask and he says he is the "Operations Manager...the store manager is not in" (at 4:30 in the afternoon?)
I got nowhere with this clown who also demanded my drivers liscense...I told him he had neither a gun or a badge...I tore the ad and receipt up and left it at the counter.

Actually the three times I ever went into B.B. it seemed that all the sales people were EX used car salespeople. Very Pushy and follow you around. FAIL...never again will I darken B.B. 's door...there are too many similar stores and at lesser prices for the same item.

Let me start by saying we have always been good customers of Best buy, making small purchases that never required the assistance of a sales rep. However, when we spent $1, 000 for a new HDTV last night it was as if they didn't want our business. In retrospect, we should have left and gone to Sears IMMEDIATELY (probably still will return the item and go to Sears) which matches prices on any Best Buy items. We were ready to drop a few thousand dollars last night, but the 1st THREE TVs we were interested in, that had been advertised and were out on the floor were apparently sold out (nothing in the back according to the sales associate), when we finally settled on a 50" Plasma (ugh!) Samsung non-3D HDTV as our 4th option (the first time they actually had the item) we then wanted to purchase a new Blu ray player and tv stand w/ wall mount. Again, they had the items we wanted in store with no indication they were out of stock, but the rep (who made it very clear at this point that we were keeping him from going home because his shift was over) said they didn't have the items because new items had come in that weren't displayed on the floor yet. Yea, I'm so sure. Anyway, at this point we figured we would rather keep the additional $600 or so (on the tv stand and new blu ray player)and go purchase those items elsewhere... like a place that would appreciate a customer that wants to drop a few thousand dollars in their store... in the economy. It was not teo seconds that we finished paying that our rep had his coat and gloves on and left telling us to wait up front for our purchase. In the meantime my husband (who is disabled from an old sports injury) got our truck and pulled it out front to be loaded. After getting the 3rd degree from the security guy (who was 5'2" and about 120 lbs soaking wet) I continued to wait with our tv for literally 20 minutes in front of the exit. Finally, my hubby got fed up and went to wheel the tv out himself. well, when scrawny security said we couldn't use their handtruck, my husband tried to lift the tv and carry it himself. I protested because he is not allowed to lift heavy items, has already had two knee surgeries, and I don't want anymore. -- at that point I asked if anyone was going to be assisting us - one of possible five customers in the entire store (they weren't busy at all, another indication you would think they would want our business and be willing to treat customers with respect) and scrawny security just shrugged and looked embarrassed. Finally, literally 20 minutes after paying some guy appeared and wheeled the tv out to our vehicle. I am never making another best buy purchase again... not even one dvd... ever! I also encourage you and everyone I come in contact with to do the same. We would've also purchased an extended warranty, but we were so disgusted at that point we said we didn't want to give away any more of our money to this slimy chain. Now, reading other complaints about warranties on this board, I am so glad we didn't. You know why they aren't a Fortune 500 company? Because they employ rude and incompetent staff and make high paying customers feel like idiots (when, in actuality, they are the ignorant ones). Go to Target, Kmart, or Sears... shop Best Buy only at your own risk.

I had ordered a Portable DVD Player. It was sent to the wrong address. It was sent to West Virginia, instead of California. I tried to stop the item from shipping from Best Buy warehouse, when I got the notice from Best Buy of address change. They said: it already in process to be shipped, sorry can't help you. So I called and was given a case # [protected], about the problem. I have been working on this since 2/15/10. I have sent in a number of e-mails. UPS said: all Best Buy had to do is let them know and they would pick it up and send it to me in California.

This store has the worst customer service I've seen in 10 years. I bought a laptop that was offered on the website with a package worth $150. They gave it to me without th package saying they can't match the offer and then I came back again to replace it with another laptop since I felt like being deceived and they wanted to charge me a restocking fee for exchange. The manager was very rude. I spent over $4000 over the years on this store but this will be my last time buying from Bestbuy.

Please be aware when buying things even within the 14 day period since they'are gonna charge you if you exchange. Very frustrating.

Today I had the worst experience shopping anywhere. The sad thing is Best Buy originates from MN, what an embarrassment if people see what a junky Best Buy we have. I purchased my laptop online at BestBuy.com, got my e-mail as order prove to go pickup. I'm over there around noon the day after I got my e-mail of it being ready for pickup. I get there they don't have it in the pickup area yet. I wait for them to bring it up and when they finally do the person that was helping me disappears, helping someone else while there are so many of them around, totally slows down the whole process. The slow service wasn't what made me mad though it was their carelessness. Another person hands over my stuff but she didn't give me their receipt, being the first time I've ever purchased anything from them online but doing an in-store pickup I didn't know about that so I walk out and duh of course the security guy in the front stops me. The customer service person apologizes but I don't feel like they were sorry at all, then finally I get a real receipt but the guy at the door still has to take a look at the computer. One it shows that he either doesn't trust customer service to do their jobs and get me the right thing or two customer service messes up but I'm the one scrutinized. Then when he hand it back he didn't even hand it back to me, he hands it to my sister who was already holding something, I had the computer and hand it him so therefore he should have handed it back to me. So there are two things I think about the store either they hire the wrong people for the jobs or their training sucked in the first place and everyone needs to be retrained. I think they got some lazy people at this particular store I visited, I didn't find pickup right away because they didn't have a big sign for that like they did for everything else. The sales people just stand around, it never crossed their mind to ask the few customers they have if they needed help. In the customer service line I ran into someone from work he came back because of their cashier's carelessness. He purchased a wii game for his son and the case was a display only and you're suppose to bring it to the cashier and they would bring the real thing and you pay for it. He paid for it but didn't realize that it wasn't already in that case and walked out with an empty case until later that he saw the sticker and realized the case was empty.

In my TV setup I have a converter box for premium cable feeding a VCR/DVD/DVR. I've also used a separate VCR fed with basic cable for a input to my picture-in-picture on the TV. This lets me either watch one channel while I record another, or record 2 different channels. The tuner in the old VCR died so I went shopping this afternoon for for a replacement.
Do you know that you just about can't buy them anymore.
The first 2 places I went didn't have any video recorders with built in tuners, none...
I was on Hwy 74 heading toward Monroe so I thought maybe I'd give Best Buy a look, I wasn't really sure I wanted to mess with them at all since I've never been in a Best Buy but what I didn't leave pissed off.
But I figured, what the heck I'm right here at it, let's look.
I went to the video department where a sales person named Gary came over and asked if he could help. I explained to him what I was looking for and he started showing me the premium high end combo units, I told him all I wanted it to do is have a tuner and be able to record.
He said "I've got just the thing you need" and he lead me to another aisle where he pulled out a TiVo unit, I told him I wasn't interested in paying a subscription to TiVo just to record, he said "oh no, you don't have to, that's what that most people don't understand, the TiVo unit will work as a video recorder without connecting to TiVo". I said "are you sure?" he said "absolutely positive".
I read the specs on the box and it really looked interesting, not only did it have a tuner, it had 2 tuners, so it could record 2 different channels at the same time
and it was a DVR that would record 80 hours on it's hard drive.
WOW this looked great, I asked him again if he was sure I didn't need to subscribe to TiVo, "absolutely not" was his reply.
I thought that all that for $150 wasn't bad so I bought it.
After I got home it was a quick install and in just a few moments I was going
through the setup. Then I got to a screen where it wanted me to connect it to the internet or a phone line so it could contact TiVo to download the setup
data. Well, I didn't want to connect to TiVo, I just wanted to be able to record.
After messing with it for about a hour and not getting anywhere I called the Best Buy store where I bought and asked for home video department. It seems Gary had gone home already, so I told the other young guy what my problem was, he said "Gary LIED to you, you have to pay a subscription fee to TiVo to use that unit".
I couldn't believe it.
I told him I wanted to speak to the store manager, he said he was kinda busy but if I'd like to hold he'd page him... When he put me on hold I just hung up and hit redial, when they answered I asked for the manager, I got some young girl assistant manager, I asked her why they had sales people working there that would lie to a customer? She said they didn't and I replied I beg your pardon but you do, I told her the story and what the other guy said about Gary having lied to me.
Of course there's was nothing for me to do but take it all back apart, put it
back in the box, drive the 20 mile round trip and return it.
And I still don't have a new video recorder, the only other thing they
have is almost $300, I'm just not ready to pay that much for one...

Mark my words,
I WILL NEVER, NEVER, NEVER SET FOOT IN BEST BUY AGAIN ! ! !

Did you not know how long the warranty was when you bought it?

Do not buy a whirlpool product. They do not care after the sale. Have not had a working washing machine for over 3 months. Why, they cannot get the parts needed to fix it. It is less than a year old. They tell me they cannot control if parts are not available. They just apologize and tell me it is out of their control. So what am I supposed to do? Just keep going to the laundry mat? Do not purchase a whirlpool product.

This duet washer does not clean well. Clothes came out still smelly. Not a reliable machine. Technician said my washer died because of computer board and it costs $600 to change just the computer board ! The dryer takes 2 hours to dry. I paid $2500 for the pair and feel like a fool! I had to take my clothes to laundromat while waiting for the new washer dryer to arrive and I found laundromat actually did a better job than whirlpool duet! Don't buy them !

I must be the biggest fool on the face of the earth. I purchased a whirlpool duet in 2007 and after having it for 2 years I began to have problems, such as, leaking from underneath my washer, leaking from my door, would not drain, an kept receiving error codes. I contact whirlpool and a technician came out and he made things worse, so in 2012 I purchased another whirlpool duet, and yes I did say another but after 18 months my washer started acting up once again. I called whirlpool, because this time I made sure I purchased the extended warranty, but the company claims that it is not in their system. My washer is now ripping up my clothes and it causing me to rebuy clothes and whirlpool refuse to provide any assistance. I am trying my best to start a civil lawsuit and I would like your input.

Worst purchase of my life! A $300 washer works better and with less problems. Constant error codes, repair visit costs and no solutions. DO NOT purchase this washer - you will never forgive yourself

My whirlpool duet washer will not drain! I bought it in Nov 2009 of course its not under warranty anymore. I called a repairman who wasn't a certified whirlpool dealer who can not figure out what the problem is. The dealer's repairman wants to charge me $80 to just come out and another $18 per 15 minutes to figure out what the problem is plus whatever the part is, plus labor and tax. Then there is no guarantee that repair will fix the problem. I have heard nothing but complaints about this piece of junk. It's too expensive to fix so now I have to go and buy a new one! It will NOT be a Whirlpool!

My whirlpool duet washer locks up and breaks down every few months. It has a cheap #*()$ plastic pump that breaks very easily. I believe it was purposely made this way but I paid way too much money to put up with this.

I also purchased this product and I'm not satisfied with the length of warranty and for the amount of money paid I feel the Ice machine and dispenser should have lasted a minimum of two year. Had I known what I know now I would have kept my old "kenmore" fridge that was in our home nine year ago when we purhcased it. The fridge worked excellent and the only reason we switched it out was to upgrade to the "stainless steel". I am totally frustrated with this company and would not/ will not recommend anyone purchase it. In fact I am going to be replacing all my whirlpool appliances with something else.

The above address posted that she was going to contact her lawyer and wanted others to join her in a class action. I have the Duet washers too and it really appears to be crap. We are using baking soda with our clothes in washing along with cleaning the washers inside seal, the rubber part that seems to catch all the clothes with bleach. This shouldn't have to be this way with this expensive a product.

I would love to get into a class action lawsuit for the same problem. Someone needs to organize one. This mold issue it terrible.

Copy of Notice sent to Whirlpool of India Limited:

Whirlpool of India Limited
A - 6 Vaitalik, USO Road
Qutab Institutional Area
New Delhi 110 067

Dear Sir,

Under instructions and on behalf of our client Mr. Adarsh Chugh s/o Late Shri B.R.Chugh resident of 65 - A Taj Road, Agra 282 001, we have to serve upon you with the following notice :

1. That our client purchased one Whirlpool Refrigerator Model 6562 Serial no. INK [protected] 310 Litres on 09-07-2003 from Bharat Agencies 19 - A Taj Road Sadar Bazar Agra Cantt 282 001 Vide their bIll no BVBA / 627 dated 12-07-2003 and paid an amount of Rs. 12701/- for the same.

2. That soon after the purchase of the said Refrigerator, our client observed that the Refrigerator was giving problems and the same was brought to the notice of the concerned dealer who agreed that it was a manufacturing Defect and our client was assured about the problem that the same would be attended shortly. Similar assurance was given by Whirlpool India Authorized Service Centre Agra .

That thereafter our client had been making repeated requests to your Company as well as your Dealer to do the needful but in vain. Our client made these requests at least on 4 occasions verbally as well as in writing during the past three years and he is in possession of the copy of communication got hand delivered to your dealer.

3. That in the normal course of business, the needful should have been done within 15 days from the date of our client's original complaint. Now since the past 4 days the refrigerator has stopped working altogether. On enquiry the representative of the dealer mentioned that the Compressor of the Refrigerator would have to be changed. Had timely action been taken this situation would have not arisen.

4. That our client fails to understand why no action was taken on his several verbal and written requests for timely redressal of his grievance.

5. That as a result of negligence on the part of Whirlpool of India Limited and their Authorized dealer, our client and his family have undergone continuous mental torture and agony apart from loss of face and financial loss.

6. That had our client ever visualized that such a reputed Company like yours would be providing inefficient services, he would have given a second thought prior to purchasing products of your Company.

7. That as a result of lapse on the part of you noticee, our client feels cheated on account sub standard services and Unfair Trade Practices being followed by you noticee of repute and our client had never in his wildest dreams thought that he would be provided with such deficient, sub standard and poor services as a consumer. He has never been favoured with any proper reply in this matter in response to his verbal and written requests. It would also not be out of context that our client apart from this met the Branch Manager of your Service Centre too personally in this matter who too failed to provide any relief.

8. That from the above facts it is very clear that people managing the Company are highly incompetent and unable to keep a track on the services being provided to the consumers and Junior cadres play their superiors on a sustained basis which should be a matter of great concern.

9. That you are herewith called upon by means of this notice to look into the matter for removal of the grievance of our client forthwith and give suitable and satisfactory explanation within 7 days from the date of this notice as to why the Complaint of our client was not attended to for such a long period.

You are FURTHER called upon to make payment of Rs. 25,000/- ( Rs. Twenty Five Thousand )towards mental torture, agony and loss of face suffered by our client because of deficient services ALONG WITH Rs. 5500/- ( Rs. Five Thousand Five Hundred ) being the cost of this Notice, within seven days hereof, failing which our client shall be left with no option than to take up the matter at various relevant platforms and also take suitable legal action,entirely at your cost and risk, without any further reference to you, of which please take a note.

A Copy of this Notice has been retained for records.

Whirlpool WMH53521HZ06 sensing function caused an explosion in the microwave, which blew open the door with scalding hot water shooting everywhere and the only thing in there was a glass of water!

I made this YouTube video of the aftermath of the explosion:

https://youtu.be/wkntmU0bxnw

I just purchased this gas stove. I was baking potatoes at 400 degrees. When I reached down to pull out a pan I nearly burnt my hand! It was so hot I had to use a pop holder to get it out...

This is a law suit ...

Whirlpool and Lowe's sold a broken washer to me and they kept delaying to fix it.

I purchase two water filter in February the company cashed my check on 02/07/23 of $97.52 check # 7392 with JP Morgan Chase Bank. The filters did not work so I called and was sent 2 more. They did not work either. So, I called to get a refund. But was told that I would not get a refund as I was passing the 30-day refund time frame.
