The Whirlpool WTW4800YQ is a top-loading washer built for 220/240 volt power. It is designed with fewer moving parts than competing washers, and it runs more quietly and uses less energy and water. It has a white cabinet with a white control panel.
It has 8 cycles, 4 water temperatures and 4 load sizes. An electronic control shows the cycle status, and a push button starts, pauses and unlocks the washer. A sensing system runs a series of spins before the load starts to check that it is balanced.
The lid lock has a light control that allows higher spin speeds. The lid stays locked during fill, agitate, drain and spin. The spray rinse feature fills the tub with water as it spins. The washer has 2 spin speeds, up to 700 RPM, for better water extraction.
