Hello, I need some inputs, please.
When I bought my mother a new center-dial Whirltag two Christmases ago, I saw a Whirpool in the store's collection, with a giant tub and full agitator, same enormous SS tub as the Cabrio, etc, but instead of a propeller, it had a highly evolved surgilator of sorts. Really intriguing machine. What started this, is that this morning, I realized I had a ton of big things to wash: A huge terry after shower robe that takes up a whole side of the Unimatic, 4 thick beach towels that I use all the time, and both my regular robes were dirty, and the flannel sheets needed changing. Immediately thought of that giant Whirlpool, and wished I had one, at least for today. Do any of you own one or have info about this soon-to-be-extinct beast? ~if not already gone. Just curious. Thank You. |

It is a Cabrio, with an agitator instead of an impeller. They were offered under the Oasis, Cabrio, and Bravos labels. Basically an enlarged F&P EcoSmart, the wash action is about the same, and even the operational sounds. Bravos WTW6300TQ Parts List |

Thanks Ricky. I'm remembering Glenn's vids of the F&P with the really long stroke, 360 or more, long enough to sink a monster load. The high speed spins come out of a long tradition. Remember Ben's double rinsing Frigidaire WO 65? After the 1140 wash & first rinse spins, the water was already clear. Surprised that a machine this advanced and complex can't shoot out a spray or two. "Oh well...what da hell ya gonna do?"
