Rated 5 out of 5 by Johnny Ola from Seems to do the job. My old softener just gave up. Since it was 12 years old, I decided to replace it then repair it. The old one was a different brand, but appears to be the same manufacturer as the Whirlpool. The biggest difference is the shape and what is displayed on the screen. The old one had a GPM (Gallons Per Minute) display. This one only shows drops when water is running through the unit. On the old one, I had to set the level at which the light would blink when I needed to add salt. This one is automatically set to level 2. Since I already had the necessary plumbing. Installation was a snap. I will be satisfied if I get another 12 years out of this one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by 18172 from Works great! I installed the softener myself. You need to read the instructions carefully. It has worked perfectly. I am very surprised but the other bad reviews. The softener has lots of vey useful features and they have all worked without any issues at all. I would recommend the WHES44 over the smaller unit (sorry don't remember the model number) as it is only $150 or so mor expensive, but has a higher capacity and many more useful features. The only negative I can think about is the bypass valve can be hard to move if you don't use it for 6 months or so. A little lubrication and it was good to go. You do need to follow the yearly maintance procedure that is in the owners manual. Only takes about 15 minutes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by jbnavy from Installation can be a problem Installed my softener last week. Wasn't to sure exactly where the O rings should seat in front of stop or behind stop. Before stop is correct. Also the key to installing the water by pass into the back manifold after applying silicone lubricate to O rings is push it into place with stress until you feel it seat. Otherwise leaks everywhere. The softener is now up and running and so far very pleased. Installation is very doable if you seat the O rings properly.

Rated 2 out of 5 by roweboat from Unit malfunction after less than 2 years old Bought less on 3/22/2014 and the unit stopped working properly. Water and salt were coming out of the top of the unit and my water just kept running unless I bypassed the softener.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Roy48 from Run Do Not Buy I purchase this unit (WHES44) just under 3 years ago and when I tried to do a recharge got EER, so disconnected the unit found that the valve body was leaking, but the motor was trying to turn the valve to recharge, but the valve would not turn.. Took it apart to see if anything was broken, found nothing so called Whirlpool to see if I could get the whole valve body and was informed to go to there web site only to find that I had to buy each part and not the whole valve body at a cost of 10 times what I paid for the whole unit. If a motor goes bad in a car you do not have to buy the parts you can but the whole motor. Now I understand why they only give you a warranty for one year.

Rated 3 out of 5 by SHodgson from Not sure it is working 100% for us I love the unit itself as the all in one unit is wonderful for a small house on the farm. But, I don't think it is working properly for us. We only have 2 people in the house and we don't use a lot of water. We have only used not even a full bag of salt since the original install 4 months ago. We took out all of the salt and blew through all the lines, etc. The water feels sort of soft, but we still have a lot of white residue everywhere. We've used the softener cleaner and cleaning steps and still white residue . Our well drilling team said our water only had a hardness of 15. We even upped the hardness setting on the unit to 30 to try it out. Still white residue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by AlCo from Softener is good but ad needs help Good water softener and works well. Box said can be installed up to 1 " pipe. Downloaded manual said in the parts list that it comes with 3/3 " pipe adapters. As I needed it to replace an existing unit 3/3" pipe would be great. Got unit home and the pipe adapters that came with the unit were 1" . If the box said "UP TO 1" " and the parts list said 3/4" adapters this should have been great, however the unit came with 1" adapters and requuired repluming my house to hook it up. Called whirlpool and they didn't seem to care, said this has 3/4" inside diameters and are as advertised with no 3/3" adapters available. If not available the box should have said "INCLUDES 1" ADAPTERS" and not "UP TO 1" .

Rated 5 out of 5 by Gerry C from Excellent Product I bought this to replace the one that failed after 8 1/2 years. Unfortunately the resin failed in the older unit and blew out the O-rings in head causing it to leak. Cost benefit analysis said it was cheaper and more reliable to go with a new unit; than to repair or renew resin in the older unit. The new unit was like a plug and play -- real easy. If I get another 8 1/2 years out of this unit; for the price, it is worth it. I really like the automatic recycle feature versus a timed (after so many days) recycle. We don't use a lot of water; so, the feature is good for us.
