CLIP COLLECTION: Whirlpool WTW4850HW1 // FULL Load of Towels

The 4850 absolutely stunned me with the performance of this load, I plan to do a full cycle of this sometime in the future.

Cycle: Heavy
Temp: Hot
Water Level: Auto Sensing (!)
Rinse Option: Auto + Extra Rinse

I just got a 2010 Cabrio VMW and I did a similar test to this, towels, sweater, clothes, filled to its full 3.6 CU capacity. Put on a very similar show. Was quite impressed with it. It struggled like yours but it did it.

The impeller on that washer is awesome! It did an outstanding job washing, and to me, a VERY impressive job spinning! Another model number to remember. 👍

Just shows how powerful the tall impeller really is!

Unbelievable! This thing did an amazing job!

It did an amazing job! Definitely better than the newer whirlpool stuff.

Dude, THIS IS THE BEST WASH ACTION FROM WHIRLPOOL THAT YOU WILL GET NOW. I am absolutely shocked.

Holy shit I never thought I would say this about a clothes grinder washer but this load and washer actually did a good job wow

This is impressive for a Whirlpool VMW. Really impressive. I wonder if my dad’s older 2013 Whirlpool WTW4900BW0 with the tall impeller will pass this test. It does have bad bearings during the spin but that should not really affect the wash action tho. I know my dad likes to always do really large loads on that thing on a normal cycle. Soil level usually stays on medium but he occasionally switches it to heavy. He sometimes turns extra rinse on as he has sensitive skin.

Hey Jerry my Maytag Peforma washer just gave up the ghost earlier during a load of towels.

They should put the 1/2 hp motor in these. THIS I would definitely consider.

A WTW5000DW model would maybe handle this. I know how much you hate the Whirlpool 5000s tho lol. The WTW5000DW ones also use a flat impeller and are discontinued and has been replaced with the Whirlpool WTW5010LW. I believe the Maytag MVWC565 and the 5000 also use Welling motors.

Not bad actually. Was expecting a lot worse from a whirltag. It’s no LG, but it’s actually doing a lot more than tickling the clothes like the newer flat impeller models

Aww no Deadheat music. Unless that's only used for a 565/655 that can't wash towels.

For me, I wouldn’t trust the clean with this type of machine. All that is happening is the clothing is just getting a moving float in the water. If you had an older person living with you who is relying on you for everything, who may have bathroom accidents frequently, I certainly would not trust the wash to be safe and clean to use. Also, think about those who still use cloth diapers. Gross. I’ll stick with a washer with an agitator that will take my clothes for a proper ride around the tub giving my clothes a good workout.
