A stainless steel drum, black soft-closing door and Zen Direct Drive Inverter Motor give it the mechanical basis for a quiet, energy-efficient wash across 12 programs, from everyday Standard and Quick cycles through to Wool, Eco and Duvet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSonic Clean is the VWED1102IG's signature technology: a built-in generator produces high-frequency ultrasonic bubbles that vibrate against fabric to help lift stubborn stains during the wash. The Zen Direct Drive Inverter Motor turns the drum directly rather than through a belt, cutting mechanical noise and using more than 30% less energy than a standard non-inverter motor. All-Round Antiseptic Protection extends this hygiene focus to the impeller, filter box and surrounding tub, which are treated to a tested 99.99% antiseptic standard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA Wash + Air Dry program adds an air-dry phase after washing to blow away excess moisture, leaving laundry over 15% drier than a standard cycle before it reaches the line. The lid closes softly and quietly, and touch controls with an LED display manage water level, temperature and rinse settings across ten water levels and three temperature options. Whirlpool appliances are distributed in Australia by Arisit Pty Limited, and the VWED1102IG carries a 2-year manufacturer's warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch1\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;
