Customers are enthusiastic about the Cabrio Platinum dryer's many cycles, large capacity, and energy efficiency. Positive feedback frequently highlights the ease of use and the effectiveness of the steam function for wrinkle removal. The dryer's quiet operation is also a frequently cited advantage. Reviewers appreciate the ability to dry large loads efficiently, saving both time and energy.
I love this dryer! It has a high capacity (I have 5 kids, so TONS of laundry) it dries things more quickly than any other dryer I've ever owned. It's fairly quiet when running, and I like that you can control the sound level of the buzzer. The heat sensor is awesome. It helps protect your clothes from over drying and it saves energy. The steam mode, which I didn't think I would really use, is awesome. I throw clothes in to refresh them when they are wrinkled or maybe have lost the "freshly washed" scent. I have yet to find anything that I don't like on this dryer.

We bought the combo washer/dryer combo mainly because it had a lot of the nicer features (not the very top of the line, but features like the steam drying without the built-in rack). The deal was too good to pass up, and we've been very impressed at all the different heat settings, as well as the amount of time it takes to dry things (quicker than expected). No more getting clothes out that are damp around the seams, etc. All in all, it has been a great dryer. I can't speak to the longevity yet as we haven't had it too long, but we got the extended warranty. We were usually ones to go cheap on the dryer before and not get the warranty, but they'd last 3-4 years and take a dump. I'm excited to have a nice dryer for a change, and one that does what a dryer should do, with just enough bells and whistles that you can actually use. A tad noisy, but well worth it for how much you can fit in this thing. We have it in it's own room with a door, so it can be closed if needed. Perfect dryer so for for us, and I'd definitely recommend it.

This is for: Whirlpool - Cabrio Platinum 7.6 Cu. Ft. 11-Cycle Steam Electric Dryer - White The controls are easy to figure out. You just toss the clothes in and it figures out how to dry them after you pick the category. The sheets setting works perfect. The bulky worked for everything including quilts which are not easy. This replaced a Whirlpool machine that was purchased in 2001 the difference is night and day. The new machine is much more quiet. It is running right now two rooms away and there is no sound leaving the laundry room. The wrinkle free setting works perfectly. The only niggle would be the lint trap design but it still works fine. Very happy with the machine.
