The Whirlpool dishwasher is one of the most sought after brands of household appliances. The company offers customers a wide selection of dishwashers in different price ranges. There is no doubt about the quality and functionality of the technology. The company is improving energy-saving technologies every year, so Virpul PMMs have not only a stylish design, they are also beneficial to use in everyday life.
Features of Whirlpool dishwashers
Whirlpool models are presented with different functions and capabilities. You can choose a built-in PMM from the ADP series – this is a narrow 45 cm wide appliance. Perfect for a small kitchen. At one time you can wash from 9 to 10 sets.
Freestanding models from the ADG series are available with standard dimensions of 60 cm. The capacity is from 12 to 14 sets. The lower baskets are adjustable in height, so it is possible to place large items.
The machines come with operating instructions, which indicate the schemes for connecting equipment to communications. That’s why install PMM by yourself is not difficult.
Saturated functionality will help to cope with dishes of various contamination, as well as facilitate the use of appliances.
- 6 Sense technology fully controls the consumption of water, electricity and detergents. Every 4 seconds, the water is regenerated and purified, so that the dishes come out perfectly clean.
- Automatic filter cleaning. Convenient design as you don’t have to clean twice a month. The system will do it for you.
- Half load mode. The multi-zone washing system allows you to wash appliances that are in a certain zone. Dirty dishes have not accumulated for a full load? Then put the plates in one basket, and the machine will adjust the water supply so that it consumes half the resources.
- Steam processing. Ideal for disinfecting dishes and children’s toys. After the end of the washing cycle, steam is released from special compartments, which flows over the appliances from all sides. Microbes don’t stand a chance.
- The “smart” system remembers the last installed program. So next time, just press one key to play it.
All Virpul dishwashers are equipped with Aquastop leak protection, 5-6 main programs, salt and rinse aid indicators.

Anastasia
Decided to buy a dishwasher after another quarrel. We opted for Whirlpool, because it is a well-known brand that has proven itself well. I have been using the machine for six months now, I am satisfied with its work. Despite fears that utility bills will rise, water consumption has declined. You can select a program for any dish, even glass or porcelain.
The instructions for this model are poorly written. But you can figure it out.
Whirlpool ADPF 851 WH
Freestanding machine with dimensions 85x45x60 cm. Energy class A+, water consumption per cycle is 9 liters. Stainless steel chamber holds 10 place settings. The basket on top can be moved and also adjusted in height.

- Delay start up to 24 hours.
- ½ load, which allows you to use less water and electricity.
The equipment received full protection against Waterstop leaks. The cost is from 24 rubles.
Yuliya
Spacious model with a large chamber. The water consumption corresponds to that indicated in the instructions, but it consumes more electricity – 1 kW. It is convenient that the control buttons are not on the end, but on the front panel. You can use 3in1 tablets, launders perfectly. Of the shortcomings, I can note the drying. Sometimes there are drops of water on the plates.
Whirlpool ADG 221
Built-in appliances with condensation drying. Water consumption per cycle is 10 liters, energy class A+. The capacity of the chamber of the fully built-in model is designed for 10 sets. Installation of equipment can be carried out in the kitchen or under the countertop. It is possible to connect to hot water.
On the mechanical control panel, 6 main modes can be selected. The salt and rinse aid indicator will tell you when to add the agent. At the end of the work, an audible signal is emitted. Built-in mechanical waterproofing.
The price is from 19 rubles.
Ruslan
The dishwasher fit perfectly into the section in the headset. The characteristics are completely satisfied: only the most necessary programs. For daily washing I use the half load function. It works quite quietly, I often turn on the dishwasher at night.
Two months later, the joy of buying overshadowed the breakdown of the engine. The repair was free under warranty. A month later, the equipment stopped turning on. Again he called the master, but nothing serious, the work was restored.
Whirlpool ADP 860 IX
Full-size PMM with dimensions 85x60x59 cm. The appliance can hold 13 sets of dishes. The number of main modes has been increased to 8. There is a Power Clean mode – a super intensive wash, suitable for heavily soiled appliances. 6th Sense technology allows the machine to independently select the washing mode, depending on the load and other parameters.
High class of energy consumption of the machine A ++. Water consumption is only 6 liters. If desired, you can disinfect the dishes with hot steam. And the Multizone function supplies water only to the sector where the plates are located. It will not be difficult for you to take care of the ADP 860 IX, since the manufacturer has provided a self-cleaning filter.
The cost is from 35 rubles.
Sergei
We opted for this model because we liked the stylish design and a large number of functions. There are no such programs in other dishwashers. For example, the sixth sense helps to choose the optimal mode for dishes. However, we usually use daily and express washing.
Before buying, I read customer reviews about PMM Virpul. I do not agree that the machine does not wash dishes well. I’m quite satisfied with the quality. But if you load frying pans with soot, this cannot always be dealt with manually. In the ADP 860 IX, the absence of Aquastop was disappointing. A strange imbalance, given the high cost.
Whirlpool dishwasher malfunctions
Despite the quality of the products, we have noted the typical machine malfunctions that users complain about. All models are equipped with a self-diagnosis system that displays error codes on the display. Their decoding can be found in the instructions for use.
The problems of PMM “Whirlpool” include:
- Filling and draining errors. In the event of a blockage, the waste water is not drained from the tank or, conversely, is not filled. Leaks also occur, since not all models have an Aquastop sensor.
- Work failures. The machine does not start or does not turn on. The panel does not respond to pressing. Electronics is very sensitive to voltage fluctuations in the network. It is recommended to install stabilizers.
- Extraneous noise at work.
If the dishwasher needs repair, you need to consider that parts are not so easy to find. The components will be expensive. So think before you make a purchase.
