Customers are saying
Customers are impressed with the drying speed, overall performance, and ease of use of the 7 Cu. Ft. Electric Dryer with AutoDry Drying System. Many appreciate its quiet operation and good capacity, especially considering the price and size. However, some find the advanced features unnecessary and the cycle complete buzzer too loud. A few customers have also experienced issues with installation.

Must be a lemon
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Door seal had to be replaced at six months and it completely stopped working a few weeks after the 1 year warranty expired. Repairs will cost as much as a new dryer. Not impressed with this product at all.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Well I give it one star because it hasn't been delivered yet but they keep pestering me for a review so here you go. I have no freaking idea how to rate this because I'm not going to get it for another 3 weeks or so. So annoying

Dryer won’t heat
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I’ve had this dryer for a year. It will not heat to dry the clothes. I’ve had this issue since a few months after buying it. I thought Whirlpool made good products, but I guess not!

BUY Somethiing else.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very unhappy. Have to put every load in twice to get dry even DriFit clothes don't get dry in one cycle. We had a Whirlpool, previously and were happy with performance but this one is nowhere near as good and model is almsot exactly the same.

terrible delivery and dryer didn't work well.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.the dryer did not fully dry clothes or towels even after 3 hours for towels. Part of the problem could have been the delivery people. They twisted the vent hose and scraped the wall when pushing it to the wall. They also put a gash in my linoleum. Needless to say, it was returned and I have a much better GE product that actually dries everything nicely.

||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It dries terribly. This also took 2 tries to get delivered (months)because the first time both the dryer and washer were severely damaged. Just curious now if the drier was damaged and that’s why it dries so poorly. And yes, I’ve cleaned my house vents.

Whirlpool dryer
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This dryer does not dry heavy clothes (jeans,towels) without running the dryer a second time. It has a setting for 70 minutes and one for extra dry - neither setting gets the heavy stuff dry the first time .

Stay away from this product!
||Posted . Owned for 10 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If I could give it zero stars I would!! This dryer has stopped working on me 4 times in not even 2 years. The heating element sucks! I have techs in my house repairing it so many times it is ridiculous! They even said that is costs more to fix it at this point than what it is worth. Stay away from this product!

Dissatisfied
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had this machine 30 days. This machine is not getting my clothes clean. I tried to wash sheets and when the cycle was complete they had grease stains on them. Also, I tried to wash a small bedspread and when it was done the top half of the blanket wasn't even wet and there was a tide pod on top of the blanket that hadn't been mixed in. I think there needs to be more water in the drum. If you use liquid tide, there is no place to pour detergent but into the bottom of the drum. Wish I could return this and get a different one.
