Whirlpool FWDG 97168 WS white (859991549930)

Noisy high speed spin

The Whirlpool FWDG 97168 WS freestanding washer-dryer belongs to the class of advanced machines with a large load of laundry. With a full drum capacity of 9 kg for washing, up to 7 kg of wet laundry can be placed in it for drying. Those. the difference in the maximum washing / drying load is only 2 kg, which is very rare in devices of this class. The model is equipped with a SenseInverter brushless inverter motor, which allows you to provide high-quality high-speed spinning of 1600 rpm. However it is worth noting that at the maximum spin speed, the machine is quite noisy (83 dB). High energy efficiency class A with an annual consumption of 246 kWh per 200 washing cycles ensures economical energy consumption. And the water consumption for one wash cycle with drying is 95 liters, which, given the large load capacity, is very good.

Two complete wash and dry cycles

The software of the device has 14 cycles, among which it is worth paying attention to a quick 30-minute wash, 2 full cycles with drying (45 and 90 minutes) and a machine wash for wool products marked “for hand washing”. Most of the built-in cycles are designed for washing only, and if drying is also needed, it can be activated additionally on the control panel by setting one of 3 drying levels. Available options for drying settings allow you to take the laundry out of the drum for later ironing, to dry on a hanger or to unfold in a closet (completely dry). SoftMove and Whirlpool's 6th Sense 3Dry gentle technologies take care of the fiber structure of fabrics, while the Colours 15 low-temperature washing programme preserves the bright colours of fabrics. The slow rotation of the drum with a light steam treatment at the end of the wash cycle (FreshCare + function) prevents the formation of wrinkles in the laundry.
