Here is an interesting video on how to get hot water on these models. |

The use of the word "members" in the description is odd - like it was written to be offered at a warehouse club.
-Deep Fill Option: This option allows you to choose a higher water level on select cycles. This feature gives members more control and flexibility with a dedicated option to increase the water level on select cycles. |

Sears refers to its customers as "members." |

If that's all it takes to make 'hot' 'hot' and not 'luke-warm', then I'm more inclined to like these BOLs. Still doesn't make sense to me - there is no government requirement that manufactures 'must' sell HE machines. They could easily sell a range in which the stupid functions are disconnected and you get full water fills and 'hot' 'hot' water. |

Washerdude, what happens to the warm settings when you disable the sensor? That is a clone of my Tag and I would love to get a hot wash. |

I can't speak for the very last direct drives made, but I know up until 2010 all none HE direct drives did not agitate while filling. Neither did the earlier versions of the VM. I must admit the fact the new versions are doing this is rather upsetting and also irritating. I somehow have a feeling this is so clothes where down, appearing to wear just as fast in deep wash as impeller wash so consumers can not call on being better over the other. But as someone once told me consumers will eventually be compelled to buy front load. Very sad, there are several things whirlpool could have done to improve this washer, but then again they can only do so much with regulations.
