Cabrio® High Efficiency Gas Dryer with AccuDry™ Drying System

Guessing if the load is dry is a thing of the past. The 6th Sense™ Technology and AccuDry™ sensors in this Cabrio® 7.4 cu. ft. gas dryer figure out when your laundry is dry and stop the cycle for you. Together, they save 10 percent more energy than Whirlpool® washers with the already-energy-saving AutoDry™ system. Plus, 10 automatic cycles with four temperature settings ensure that you get results, while the Quiet Dry noise reduction system helps keep the peace. And when your drying cycle is done, the Wrinkle Shield™ option helps prevent wrinkles from setting into clean, dry fabrics. No guessing about it.

Cabrio® High Efficiency Gas Dryer with AccuDry™ Drying System 4.6 5 22 22
I love this dryer it doesn't need a timer for the clothes to dry completely. I will recommend it . Thanks Whirlpool for such an enhancement machine I always keep the setting on automatic dryer.. No need for a set time because it always dry on its on timer. If I have a heavy load to dry I just change the setting to medium or high without the timer being set on it. April 12, 2013
Cost-efficient and sleek-looking!! I bought this dryer and the matching washer. I am so pleased with both of my purchases. The dryer is very quick and quiet. It even has a wrinkle-guard that will keep tumbling clothes every few minutes until you can get to them--very cool! Buy this dryer! You won't regret it! April 10, 2013
Easy to use I like appliances that are simple to use - without a lot of buttons and different cycles. This appliance pretty much fits this criteria. The drying ability seems to be on a par with my old dryer, but the drying times are shorter due to our top loading Cabrio washer which has higher spin speeds. April 4, 2013
Awesome and easy to use! This is my first pair of whirlpool washer/dryer that are digital. They are very easy to use and work excellent. The sounds it makes lets you know when it is done which is very helpful when you are doing multiple things around the house. February 9, 2013
Energy-efficient This is a great product. It is energy-efficient and great to be able to adjust the settings depending on the load that you are drying. December 10, 2012
just outstanding features design and workmanship outstanding over fifty years of marriage my wife and me consider this the best dryer we have owned December 10, 2012
This Dryer is great!!! I love my new Whirlpool Cabrio Dryer. It is sleek looking and very easy to use. Love the tune it plays and it dries my clothes in half the time of my old dryer. I bought the matching washer also and now my laundry room looks fantastic, sounds great with all the music and I don't have to spend as much time washing and drying. Way to go Whirlpool!!!!!!!!!!
