Hi Mary, I'm going through similar experiences with my new Whirlpool which I learned to hate. I'm not an expert, however, I learned a thing or two about washers recently. Your problem could be related to one or two things: The drainpipe hose should not be placed more than 8" in length in the drainpipe as it creates a siphon effect. Also, the new washers are designed to spin fast, thus higher water pressure exiting into the drainpipe. If your drainpipe is clogged up for some reason and cannot handle the high water pressure, that may also create a problem. This can be solved by using some Draino in the drainpipe. Hope this helps.

I have the same problem with a Whirlpool. My plumber told me the new washer pressure was too strong for my 50 year old house pipes and he would have to replace the pipe. Is this necessary or is their some kind of adapter for the new hose and old drainage pipe so that it wont' overflow?
