Reply to comment by brock_lee in New whirlpool slow to fill by LumpySpace-Princess-

I am still under the 1 year warranty so I'll probably do that. I just wanted to make sure it wasn't something super simple that I could fix myself.

I'm thinking if it were an issue with the hoses that it would fill slowly both times but the second time around it fills quickly.

That's why I specified flood safe or anti-flood hoses. They have valves inside that detect leaks (in different ways) and shut off. Those valves can become defective, so for instance the first time you use the washer in a day, they partially close, but the second time, they open.

I sounds however, like the electric valves in the washer are faulty.

Ahh makes sense. If they're defective then that should be covered under warranty so I'll let the technician replace those. Thanks for your help!
