I used Whirlpool washing machine many years ago. And Yes super super super noisy. Like earthquake + airplane take off
Whirlpool after-sale service is notoriously poor. I have blacklisted Whirlpool long time ago.

Zanussi - it's good 10 years ago but it has not improved much in the past years. My last Zanussi was a few years ago. It broke down in less than 2 years
