Rated 5 out of 5 by Whirlpool Rob from Great dryer!!! Love the WiFi alerts when cycles finish, really flying on the touch screen display now that we have learned it. Sensors are so nice when it finishes everything is right at the dryness we set the controls to. Absolutely recommend adding pedestals. Bringing the drum up to waist level makes back-ache laundry time a thing of the past. It almost feels like this dryer dries faster than our Maytag dryer, it is still working, but we wanted a matching set. Employee purchased, and Proud of what we make!

Rated 1 out of 5 by Jkc95005 from Loud, with forced eco features This is by far the worst dryer I have ever had. The interface is not responsive, they force eco dry by default and you have to manually turn it off with every cycle, and it is so loud. I have multiple letters from whirlpool stating that my warranty is going to expire and to pay for an extended warranty, but when I call for service they tell me that my one year warranty is expired and that the repair is not only not covered, but they don’t even have anyone to fix it if I wanted to pay! Would never purchase a whirlpool product again.

Rated 4 out of 5 by jogalv from should be great- needs service after 3 weeks. This dryer was delivered about 3 weeks ago. Love the design and features. However, performance so far has been inconsistent. Sometimes close are dry after 1 cycle. Sometimes it takes 3 cycles. I read the manuals and found no solutions. I then contacted Whirlpool with questions and received a response advising me to contact service (because I obviously have time for to do that and then stay home from work 1/2 day for service.) It would have been nice if they answered my questions first before pushing me to service. Ask me again in a month whether I like the product and maybe I'll give a better rating.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Ulli from Gas Leak Right Out Of The Box The dryer was delivered On Oct 25, 2019. Just as the installer was about to leave, we detected an odd smell. The technician claimed that he did not smell anything and left. Went out for about 6 hours and when we came home there was a strong and distinct gas smell. Closed the gas valve for the dryer and ran all the fans in the house for 45 minutes to ventilate the area. Next morning, no smell. Soap tested the supply line with no leaks visible. A technician returned on Oct 28 and soap tested the supply line and the internal line up to the gas valve with no visible leaks. The same technician returned on Oct 31 to install a new supply line (not sure why this couldn't have been done on Oct 28). The leak has not been fixed. A new gas valve and burner assembly is supposedly on order with no install date established. We love having a brand new completely useless laundry pair.
