Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Stockholders and Board of Directors
Whirlpool Corporation
We have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the
consolidated balance sheets of Whirlpool Corporation as of December 31, 2011 and 2010, and the related consolidated state-
ments of income, changes in stockholders’ equity (not presented separately here) and cash flows for each of the three years
in the period ended December 31, 2011, and in our report dated February 22, 2012, we expressed an unqualified opinion on
those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying financial statements
(presented on pages 42 through 44) is fairly stated, in all material respects from which it has been derived.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States),
Whirlpool Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2011, based on criteria established in
Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission
and our report dated February 22, 2012 expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
