Not as good as they used to make
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Had to finally replace our old dryer. Bought this middle-of-the-road one. WOrks fine, but doesn't get the clothes as dry as our old one. Unfortunately, that seems to be to way dryers are nowadays.

Piece of junk or just our bad luck!!!!
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have had nothing but issues with this dryer. It won’t dry the clothes, period. I have reduced the load size and then it may dry them in 2 cycles of 70 min at high heat. I’m trying to call Whirlpool to replace this item with another that actually dries clothes. This one has been a disaster. The dryer is 5 months old.

Disappointed, fell apart after a year
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Washes OK. but not great. After about a year, the inside spinner comes off whenever you do anything remotely heavy- towels, sheet etc, and you have to take it apart and use a wrench to screw it back together. Pretty disappointed overall.
