Help prevent overdrying with a front load electric dryer with Advanced Moisture Sensing, which uses three moisture sensors to end the cycle at just the right time. A stainless steel dryer drum gently cradles clothes as they tumble. When drying ends, the ENERGY STAR certified electric dryer's steam cycles help release and prevent wrinkles.
7.4 cu. ft. Capacity
Get plenty of room to dry the large loads you washed in the matching front load washer. This 7.4 cu. ft. dryer easily handles bulky items like comforters and sleeping bags.
ENERGY STAR Certified
ENERGY STAR certified models exceed government standards to help conserve natural resources and save money on your utility bills.
Intuitive Controls
Let the dryer guide you to the right cycle combinations or customize up to 36 of your own to get the right type of fabric care for whatever you're drying.
Wrinkle Shield Plus Option with Steam
Help keep wrinkles from setting into clean, dry fabrics. The Wrinkle Shield Plus option with Steam uses tumbling and steam for up to 150 minutes after the cycle ends or until you open the dryer door for improved wrinkle-fighting performance.
Steam Refresh Cycle
Release wrinkles and reduce odors with the Steam Refresh cycle. It uses water and heat to get clothes ready to wear without rewashing.
Sanitize Cycle
The Sanitize cycle provides care for your clothes in the dryer while eliminating 99.9% of common household bacteria. (Bacteria tested were K. pneumoniae, P. aeruginosa, S. aureus.)
Advanced Moisture Sensing
Static Reduce Option
Help decrease static with the Static Reduce option, which combines a spray of mist with tumbling after the load is dry.
EcoBoost Option
Use less energy while getting great drying performance with the EcoBoost option. This option saves energy by using less heat and an extended cycle time. (Savings may vary by load type.)
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.
Closet-Depth Fit
Get a space-saving design with closet-depth fit that allows for more flexible installation in your laundry space. (Designed to fit a 33" installation depth.)
Laundry Pedestals
Raise your dryer for easier loading and unloading. Optional laundry pedestals also provide space-saving storage for detergent, dryer sheets and other supplies. (Sold separately.)
The electric cord and vent kit are sold separately and are not included.

Q: QuestionWill this dryer stack on model WFW5620HW washer?(1 answer)
A: AnswerHello Fawks! Yes, these two models will stack together. We hope this helps.Answered by WhirlpoolTeam
- A: AnswerIt may be because the "Damp Dry" option is selected...page 7 in the owner manual/instructions talks about the Damp Dry Signal saying the Damp Dry signal is selected as a default for Bulky Items/Normal, Bulky Items/Wrinkle Control, and Bulky Items/Heavy Duty cycles, as a reminder to manually reposition bulky loads midway through if you want to. If you don't want that reminder I'm thinking all you have to do is be sure to disable/de-select the "Damp Dry' option. I'll pay attention to that next time and see if that's what the issue was. Such much to learn, but so far so good! Thanks Whirlpool.

- A: AnswerYes the washer has the dispenser that holds 30 loads of detergent. Yes its interest free for 18 months. I believe they do haul off old units, cant remember if its included because I didnt need that but I remember reading it somewhere when I was doing all my research and thinking that's cool...but double check. Not sure about the hoses being universal.

Works great as long as you use Timed Dry only.
This dryer works well for me, but it has its quirks. I read many reviews where people say it doesn't fully dry their clothes. If you want this dryer to dry your clothes, do 2 things: 1) Turn off EcoBoast, 2) Used timed dry only. Timed dry lets you choose the drying temperature and the length of drying time. I've dried towels, sheets, blankets and various types of clothing using timed dry and have not had a problem with this dryer. I can get King size Cotton Percale sheets dry in 30 minutes, Bath towels in 40 minutes, King size heavy cotton blanket in 60 minutes, and clothes in 30-40 minutes depending on the size of the load and the type of clothing (delicates on low, jeans on high, athletic clothing on medium, etc). The dryer rack is great on this model for drying shoes or sweaters that need to be dried flat. I haven't tried the steam dry feature yet so can't comment on that. I knocked off a star for 2 reasons: 1) The sensor drying features do NOT work. I tried drying a blanket using the blanket setting for a king size heavy cotton blanket and it didn't work at all. The cycle ended (after an hour and 40 minutes) and the blanket was still extremely wet. (Note: Using the Timed Dry feature for the King size heavy cotton blanket on high heat, the blanket took 60 minutes to dry). I paid a lot of money for a dryer that I will use at its most basic settings (timed dry only), but it's hard to find a dryer that ONLY does the basics anymore. 2) the "cycle complete" signal is not very loud. I've adjusted it to the highest level and it's still too quiet. My dryer is in my garage so I need a loud signal to hear it in my house. On my old Whirlpool Duet I could easily hear the signal when it was done, but on this one it's impossible (the old Duet signal was a "buzz" sound, this one is a chime which is probably more pleasant, but way too soft).

LOOKS GOOD WORKS GOOD
This is part of the set. Washer came first, I had to wait for almost 6 weeks for the dryer to arrive. It is a good looking appliance and works great too. It has a steam function which I liked the most. When you steam it, the clothes come out w/less wrinkles. However, not completely wrinkle free. Maybe there is a way to do that too but I have not figured it out yet. It is also quitter than the older models. I think it also has larger capacity. The delivery and the set up was also pretty smooth. In general, I like the service in most Best Buy stores and delivery service. Even though it is rather new, so far this dryer seems to be pretty good.
