Whirlpool delivers a fresh take on front load laundry by introducing the first fan-powered solution with antimicrobial protection to help keep clothes and the washer fresh
BENTON HARBOR, Mich., Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Front load washers are favored by many for their ability to conveniently stack in small spaces and use less water than top load washers. However, there are some drawbacks that cause owners to rely on extra steps or hacks to help maintain their freshness. With the launch of the Whirlpool® Smart Front Load Laundry Pair, the brand introduces the all-new FreshFlow™ Vent System, the first fan-powered system with antimicrobial protection designed to help keep both clothes and the washer fresh.
"The new Whirlpool® Smart Front Load Laundry Pair is a great example of innovation and upgrades born out of direct consumer feedback," said Morgan LaLonde, Whirlpool Laundry Brand Manager. "We know laundry can feel like a never-ending task, and the last thing busy families want is to rewash a load because it sat for too long or take extra steps to get the clean results they expect. We developed a system that not only lets consumers close the washer door and help keep the machine fresh, but helps ensure clothes stay fresh and cared for as well."
