7.0 cu.ft Top Load Electric Dryer with AccuDry™

Drying large loads from your top load washer is easy with the 7.0 cu. ft. Whirlpool® HE dryer. Even bulky items like comforters and sleeping bags won't be a problem for this large-capacity model. For those days when you don't have time to rewash clothes, the Steam Refresh cycle can help you relax wrinkles and reduce odors. And you can rest easy knowing the AccuDry™ sensor drying system helps prevent overdrying by stopping the cycle right when the load is dry. Plus, once your clothes are dried, the Wrinkle Shield™ option tumbles them periodically to help keep wrinkles from setting in. You'll be able to take care of everyday items like work clothes with the Normal cycle. And if your favorite pair of jeans need a little more time in the dryer, use any one of the convenient Timed Dry cycles.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from Pretty good dryer This dryer does the job well. My main complaint is that the buzzer that warns you when the clothes are dry is so loud I can't use it. It makes me jump out of my skin, even when I'm in another room. So, I don't always notice when the dryer shuts off, and then the clothes get wrinkled. Also, even when I set it for "Very Dry," it shuts off before the clothes are dry, so I have to restart it to finish the drying. One thing I like about it, which is getting hard to find in the new models, is that the door opens downward and makes a shelf to pull the clothes out on. This makes it easier to fold the clothes than a door that opens to the side.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Anonymous from Buy the Extended Warranty! The dryer which was originally delivered tripped the circuit breaker several times, then shot sparks from the rear panel. A Whirlpool representative contacted by phone recommended contacting an electrician, which I did -- at a cost of $120. He verified that the dryer was defective. Further discussion with Whirlpool resulted in replacement of the original unit. The electrician fee was not reimbursed. The new unit would not dry the clothes. Another Whirlpool technician examined the new unit and diagnosed a blockage in the hot air exhaust system. The blockage was remedied at an additional cost of $95. The current unit seems to do it's job.

Rated 5 out of 5 by halogen58 from Business as usual Our old Whirlpool Gold dryer had quit heating for the 3rd time in a year and a half. We've had it for over 17 years, so we decided since we just replaced the matching washer a few months earlier we should replace the dryer as well. My wife and I didn't want to spend $1000 just for a washer or dryer. I found this one on sale and since we bought the matching washer it just made sense. This dryer works just as well as our older model which we loved. There wasn't much of a learning curve and it's easy to use. The door is actually larger than our old model so that's a plus. It's as if we're still using our old set. So it's business as usual.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Excellent dryer I had purchased a competitors dryer and returned it almost immediately because it left the clothes damp even after a 2 1/2 hour cycle. I decided to purchase this Whirlpool because of its simplicity. Set the timer and you are good to go. I personally do not need a dryer connected to my phone or wifi. I also do not need hundreds of cycle variations. Sometimes less is more. I also wanted a dryer with a sturdy door. Most of the competitors dryers have flimsy doors that are hard to open. This door has a strong feel to it but it is easy to open. So far, I'm very pleased with this purchase. I would definately recommend this model of Whirlpool dryer to friends and family.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Maggie the Super Critical from Hamper Doors are Best for Tight Spaces Chose this dryer because I needed a hamper door. Dryers are now a few inches deeper than old dryers, making the space issue even worse. The dryer dries. I think dryers are all about the same, but washers now do a better job of getting the water out. So the clothes are dryer going in. I am disappointed in the moisture sensor - hence the four star. I believe my old Kenmore, built by Whirlpool, dryer's sensor was better, before it quit working... No matter which level of dry I choose, the clothes come out somewhat damp. I was really looking forward to having a dryer with a working sensor again, but I am pretty much back to using the timed dry feature.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Busy laundress from Good large capacity dryer This is a good basic large capacity dryer. It can hold a king size comforter. I thought the Steam Refresh feature would quickly get rid of wrinkles so you can skip the ironing. The results are inconsistent. Once my pants came out wet, not damp, so I could not wear them as planned. Other times the shirts come out damp but still wrinkled. I would not rely on this feature. The Wrinkle Shield feature merely keeps warming/tumbling the clothes about every 5 minutes until you empty the dryer, so don't turn this on if you're leaving the house or it will use a lot of energy. Clothes come out dry in about an hour. Gets the job done.

Rated 1 out of 5 by rethinkthis from Noisy and inefficient; choose another model Have been using this for one month and wish I'd bought a different dryer. It's noisy and inefficient; clothes get stuck against the paddles so they don't dry evenly and come out terribly wrinkled...sheets are a tangled mess. My 20 year old dryer stopped working and I had to get a quick replacement. Do your research on this one and choose another model. I can put six towels in the dryer on high heat for 40 minutes and they aren't dry which means I have to turn it on for a second time. And beware if you use the buzzer to signal the end of the cycle...even your neighbors will hear it! It's horrible. Bad product, Whirlpool.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Questioned dryer from Questioned the dryer that was delivered I noticed that the dryer didn’t come in a box. I also noticed scratches and dig. It also looked very different from the dryer I had picked out and purchased at my locate Lowe’s. I then questioned/asked the 2 delivery guys is this a new dryer? They both said yes several times. I then also mentioned this doesn’t look like the dryer I purchased and they reassured me that it was...but I still doubted it. After they were done installing the washer and dryer they gave me the manuals for each of them. The washer Manuel was brand new in a cleared sealed package. The dryer manual however was not in a package it was old, wrinkled, dirty and Clearly had been soaked in water. I am not happy.

Rated 5 out of 5 by redheadedjj from A Dryer that actually dries!! I bought this dryer 2 1/2 years ago and loved it. I had to relocate for work and was not able to take my washer and dryer with me so I sold the pair and moved. I'm now settled in my permanent home in my new city and went shopping for a new washer and dryer. I was thrilled and delighted to see this model still on the sales floor! I bought it again and could not be happier. The only change I have noticed is that the lint screen glides in and out of the machine even easier than before. I love this dryer! My clothes are dry on the first run-through. It's quiet and energy efficient. I HIGHLY recommend this product.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Quizzer from Good but not great I bought this dryer for the drop down door feature. The side swing models make me drop items on the floor all the time and have to bend over to pick up. Love this feature! Love the light inside the dryer! AccuDry feature leaves some clothes still a little damp even on the very dry setting, meaning I have to reset for a bit longer. The regular dry cycle takes longer than my old dryer to dry. I think this is because of the very long cool down time. I've had to reset again to finish drying. But for what is on the market, there isn't a dryer I'd buy instead due to the drop down door.My opinion on the quality will depend on how it lasts. Seems well built so far.
