Q: I asked why the washer and matching dryer are of different heights. I was told it is because the dryer has to accommodate a larger drum. Well........then make the washer taller!!! A washer and dryer that are "matched" should be the same height.

A: The taller the machines are, the harder it is to retrieve washed items. I cannot reach inside the drum of the washer. I'm 5'2" I have to use a "reacher" to grab things.

    Awesome Smart Whirlpool Electric Dryer

    I love my electric Whirlpool dryer. It works wonderfully. It dries my clothes quickly. It's very quiet, and I love all the options on it. This is my second Whirlpool purchase. My first Whirlpool washer and dryer lasted almost 20 years. This is why I wanted another Whirlpool...they last almost forever. You can trust that you are getting high quality equipment. I highly recommend this product.
