Our verdict

Whirlpool suits households in France replacing a whole kitchen of white goods, since installation is offered and the installation fee is €0, with a 2 year warranty behind it. Buyers on a tight budget should weigh the €349 starting price before committing.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • Installation is offered, and the installation fee is €0, so fitting the machine adds no charge at checkout.
  • Warranty of 2 years is backed by 14 years of listed spare parts, so a repair stays possible well after cover ends.
  • The range covers washing machine, dryer and dishwasher, matching washing machine, dryer and dishwasher category for category, letting a single badge fill a whole kitchen.
  • A mobile app is offered alongside phone, email and a help centre under phone, email and help centre, so remote control and human help sit with the same seller.

Cons

  • The €349 opening figure ranks 25 of 32 brands on starting price, so the cheap end of the market sits elsewhere.
  • Warranty stops at 2 years while spare parts run to 14 years, leaving the tail of a machine's life outside cover.
  • Support runs on phone, email and help centre, and live chat is not one of the listed routes.
  • The listed €349 price is quoted in euro by European Appliances France SAS, so buyers in other markets read a different price list.

Who it suits

  • Households in France replacing several appliances at once, since washing machine, dryer and dishwasher cover the full kitchen and installation is offered.
  • Buyers who keep a machine a long time, since spare parts stay listed for 14 years.
  • Shoppers who want app control plus human support, since a mobile app is offered and phone, email and help centre are listed.

Who should look elsewhere

  • Exquisit, for buyers who rule out a €349 opening figure before looking at the range.
  • Hoover, for shoppers who want to weigh another badge across cooker, dishwasher and dryer against a 2 year warranty.
  • Bauknecht, for buyers who prefer the same washing machine, dryer and dishwasher at a different price point than €349.

Plans and prices

Whirlpool sells machines outright rather than on a plan, so a single figure covers the whole purchase and nothing recurs afterwards. The Whirlpool washing machine range opens at €349, and that is the entry price to the store rather than a discounted first year. Installation is offered, and the installation fee reads €0, which makes the fitting free on top of the machine price.

How it compares on our data

On starting price, Whirlpool sits at 25 of 32 brands, so the opening figure is well down the table. Warranty length tells the opposite story: 3 of 30 brands puts it near the top. Read together, the data describes a brand you pay more to enter and then cover for longer than most of the field.

Core features

Cover runs 2 years, and spare parts for the reference machine stay listed for 14 years. The gap between those two numbers matters most: a repair part can be ordered long after the warranty has expired, so the useful life of a machine extends past the cover that comes with it. Installation is offered, so a delivered machine does not mean searching separately for a fitter. A mobile app is offered as well, which covers the connected side of the same range.

The company behind it

The seller behind the store is European Appliances France SAS, headquartered in France, so the entity you deal with sits in France and quotes its prices in euro. Support runs on phone, email and help centre, which lists phone, email and a self service help centre. Those are the published routes, and the same company that sells the machine also carries the warranty attached to it.

How Whirlpool compares

Frequently asked questions

What does a Whirlpool machine cost to start with?+

The Whirlpool washing machine range opens at €349, which is the entry price on the French store. On starting price, Whirlpool sits at 25 of 32 brands in our data, so it is not the cheapest way into the category. Other categories, from fridges to hobs, are listed separately on the same store.

Is installation included, or is it a separate charge?+

Installation is offered by Whirlpool, and the installation fee reads €0, so the fitting itself adds no charge on top of the machine price. That covers orders placed through the store, where the installation terms sit alongside the product listings.

How long is the warranty?+

Cover on the reference machine runs 2 years. Across the brands tracked here, that length ranks 3 of 30 brands, which puts Whirlpool near the top of the warranty table even though its starting price sits lower down the price table.

Can I still buy parts after the warranty ends?+

Spare parts for the reference machine are listed for 14 years, well beyond the 2 year warranty. That is the number that decides a repair later on, because a part can be ordered long after cover has expired. Budget for the labour as well as the part.

What can I buy from Whirlpool?+

The range spans washing machine, dryer and dishwasher, enough to outfit a full kitchen from laundry through cooking. Exquisit lists washing machine, dryer and dishwasher, an identical set of categories, so range breadth is not a differentiator between these brands. Price and warranty length are the points that separate them.

Is there a mobile app, and which specs matter on the washing machines?+

A mobile app is offered by the brand. The French store names a current set of reference models, mostly washing machines and a dryer, and the featured FreshCarePlus machine pairs 9 kg of drum with an A energy class, which is the spec to check first on any washer list.

How do I get help after buying?+

Support runs on phone, email and help centre, so phone, email and a self service help centre are the published routes. Live chat is not among them. The same entity that sells the appliance also handles the warranty, so a claim does not move to a separate servicer after purchase.

Who am I actually buying from?+

Orders are placed with European Appliances France SAS, a company headquartered in France, and prices are quoted in euro. Support, warranty claims and installation terms all come from that same entity, giving one point of contact rather than a separate servicer. Keep the euro price list in mind when comparing from another market.
