About Whirlpool

Whirlpool (CC-910) is a crisp, clean white from Benjamin Moore with almost no visible undertone. With an LRV of 75, Whirlpool reflects most of the light that hits it, which helps small or dim rooms feel larger.

Because its undertone is so subtle, Whirlpool stays fairly consistent between north- and south-facing rooms. It's a good fit for whole-house walls, living rooms, bedrooms and trim with a deeper wall color. It's very close to Cascade White (2127-70); you'd mostly see the difference side by side.
