Santize with Oxi -> No heater! Sanitize with Oxi is used on Whirlpool corporation machines that either don't have a heater (FLs) or on machines that can't reach the required temps for normal Sanitize cycles (TLs). Machines with Steam do have a heater though, independent of Sanitize cycle. | ||

If the Whirlpool machines says just sanitize and there is no oxi designation then it has a heater | ||

 I think there is more to this than what meets the eye. I conjecture the there is difference in the cycle software on the 5620 vs. the 6620, hence why there is a differentiator of "with oxi" and one that doesn't have the designate "with ox" I'd only buy one that didn't have "with oxi" on the front next to Sanitize. I can tell you the KWH rating on the 5620 and 6620 is less than the 8620 & 9620 whirlpool models. The latter two have the same KWH rating on Energy Star tag as is found on my 2011 WFW97HEX Duet. I will always select a model with higher KWH rating as that means more cycles with the onboard heater being used. | ||
