Before I got this Cabrio I had a Roper. It worked fine, but I was moving to a new home and wanted all the new things!! I learned my lesson. Anyways, that Roper couldn't hold a Queen comforter so I have used a laundromat in the recent past. When I said the laundromats smelled like other...

I really love my comforter's fabric. The pattern & colors are perfect for my bedroom. It only cost about $100 and came with 2 shams. I'm seriously thinking about ripping the seems out, getting new batting, then renting a long arm quilter, and I could do the binding myself- would take me about...

There is a local dry-cleaner. I just called them and they said $36.99 to wash a King Comforter, and then she mentioned it takes 1 to 2-weeks to clean it. That seems weird, I didn't ask why it takes that long.

One privately owned appliance dealer who mostly deals with contractors and not end users. They don't carry whirlpool brands and tried to sell me a 2018 GE that hadn't even arrived in the store yet. It looked just like my Cabrio, plate bottom TL, and is wifi enabled. I was not amused. Next...

Also, a major reason I didn't fight harder to return the Cabrio for another, I had that lingering doubt that I wasn't using the machine right. One of the warranty guys even grilled me about it, and when I told him what I did to get extra water he told me I wasn't supposed to do that, that the...

I included a picture of my Cabrio's model and serial number. I hope it uploads. I keep my machine on bulky setting, deep setting, and presoak. I start off presoaking every load, set a timer for 10 minutes and then start over so it will weigh the load heavier. I should give some credit, the...

@washerdude, that 1st video of the Cabrio, that's how all my loads perform in the machine, not just a comforter. There is no agitation at the top. Before I figured out how to trick the machine into giving me more water, I often pulled items out, after the cycle was done, that had never been...

I just took some measurements, I don't have the room for FL door clearance. I'd have to gut the laundry room and move counters and water hook ups.

The maytag MVWP575GW has awesome reviews and videos! Could I get away with "butter churning" the King Comforter in that tub? 3.5 usable cu ft. The batting in my comforter isn't thick and I wouldn't mind doing that once a month if the machine cleans all the other things well. Not gonna lie, if...

I'm so over the consumerist-buy-new mindset. If I can find something old and reliable I will consider it. I was looking through my local FaceBook Marketplace, but you know, I don't know what all these models are. I wouldn't mind buying something and then paying the nice locally owned appliance...

I have a Top Load Whirlpool Cabrio, bought it about 1 year and 4 months ago. It's bad at cleaning, and to get it to at least thoroughly wet my stuff I have to do some crazy stuff that is very tedious and wastes a bunch of water. I have to soak the dirty clothes, drain and waste all the water...
