Whirlpool Front-Load Washer LHW0050P

Date Published: 7/6/06

The Whirlpool Front-Load Washer LHW0050P has it all--a great price, versatile installation options, a durable stainless-steel wash basket, and enough speeds and temperature selections to handle just about anything your family needs to wash.

Eleven automatic cycles and five temperature settings provide more than enough options to clean anything from linens and towels, to clothing and even delicate lingerie. An onboard heater serves to ensure the water is always heated to the optimal temperature, eliminating temperature fluctuations caused by the amount of hot water available in your household water heater.

The Whirlpool Front-Load Washer LHW0050P has eight variable speed settings that provide damage-free cycles for all the various fabrics in your home. A maximum spin speed of 1200 rpm does a great job of removing water from durable fabrics and serves to considerably shorten drying times.

Those pressed for time will appreciate the quick wash cycle, which does a great job of cleaning a forgotten uniform or pair of jeans needed immediately. Energy efficient as well as convenient and easy to use, this model has earned an Energy Star rating.

The Whirlpool LHW0050P can be installed under a countertop, stacked with a dryer, or left freestanding.


Pro: compact size with lots of installation options, efficient with excellent feature package
Con: smaller capacity than some
