  • Quad Baffles: Four baffles tumble clothes in a randomized pattern, allowing items to open up freely. This helps increase the effectiveness of the dryer for small loads.
  • Stainless Steel Dryer Drum: Clothes are gently cradled as they tumble around the smooth surface of this drum’s stainless steel construction.
  • Dryer Rack: Place unique or delicate items like sweaters, pillows, hats and tennis shoes on the Dryer Rack for tumble-free drying. This rack attaches inside the drum and stays in one place throughout the cycle. Rack ships separately after online product registration. Valid email address required.
