8.8 cu.ft Top Load HE Gas Dryer with Advanced Moisture Sensing, Intuitive Touch Controls

Help prevent damage caused by overdrying and spend less time in the laundry room with the Whirlpool® 8.8 cu. ft. high-efficiency gas dryer. This large capacity dryer features Advanced Moisture Sensing that senses the needs of each load and adapts drying times, so every load stops when clothes are perfectly dry. Four shorter, quad baffles bring more balanced tumbling results, even on small loads. Also, the Wrinkle Shield™ Plus option helps keep wrinkles from setting into your clean clothes with intermittent tumbling after the dryer cycle ends.

Features

Intuitive Touch Controls with Memory

Intuitive Touch Controls with Memory always ask the right questions. Easy “what” and “how” controls effortlessly help you create customized care for any mess depending on load type, size and drying times. Plus, they even remember your last settings to save you time when drying those everyday favorites.

Intuitive Touch Controls

Let the dryer guide you to the right cycle combinations or customize up to 26 of your own to get the right type of fabric care for whatever you're drying.

Advanced Moisture Sensing

Advanced Moisture Sensing uses three active built-in sensors to read incoming and outgoing air temperatures while continuously monitoring heat and moisture levels inside the dryer. This helps the cycle automatically end when clothes are perfectly dry and helps prevents damage caused by overdrying.

Wrinkle Shield™ Plus Option

The Wrinkle Shield™ Plus option helps keep wrinkles from setting into your clean clothes with intermittent tumbling after the dryer cycle ends.

Additional Features

Quad Baffles

Four baffles tumble clothes in a randomized pattern, allowing items to open up more freely. This helps increase the effectiveness of the dryer for small loads and promote better, more balanced tumbling.

Estimated Time Remaining LED Display

Always have an eye on how much time is left during any cycle with our estimated time remaining LED display. Part of our updated digital console, it illuminates your selected cycles, options and available choices, and lets you know when you can remove items from the dryer.

8.8 cu. ft. Capacity

The 8.8 cu. ft. capacity dryer offers enough space to care for loads from the washer with ease. You'll even be able to dry bulky items like comforters and sleeping bags.

EcoBoost™ Option

The EcoBoost™ option saves energy by using less heat and extending cycle time. You’ll enjoy great drying performance while using less energy¹.

Sanitize Cycle

The Sanitize cycle provides excellent care for your clothes in the dryer while eliminating 99.9% of common household bacteria².

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Holds a TON & gets it dry! I bought this to replace a LG dryer that needed 2 cycles to dry a normal size load & still didn't get it all dry. It took a bit to get used to the controls. You don't push hard at all. Just the lightest touch to turn on & start. The amount of clothes that this dries is fantastic! My new washer holds 2 1/2 times as much clothes as my old LG. Even with this many more items to dry, this Whirlpool dryer is up to this task! The capacity is SO huge that I almost have to climb in to get that last sock in the back. Overall, I am very happy with my purchase & have recommended this dryer to several friends already. A great purchase!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Great purchase I bought this a month ago and it's been wonderful. We had been putting off buying a new dryer because the old one wasn't quite dead yet but decided to when we bought the new washer and it's was the perfect decision. It's quiet, efficient, and the instructions are easy to understand. The clothes come out soft and relatively wrinkle free. We have dried two bulky quilts at the same time which was impossible in the old dryer. It's a little deeper than I expected so if you have a narrow space make sure to measure. But the larger capacity was definitely worth it. Absolutely love both the dryer and the new Cabrio washer too!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Huge,Quiet, and in Love We bought this Cabrio dryer a month ago a long with the Cabrio 5.3 washer. The first test was a huge king size comforter, the dryer has so much room, the comforter dried in no time. I went from 4 loads of jeans in old dryer down to 1. Tried bathroom rugs the same way as old dryer, on delicate with low heat, the old dryer would either not dry or make rubber dry and crack. With the same setting, this dryer dried them without making them hot. Having a pool and 7 grandkids plus their friends, drying beach towels is a breeze. If I leave a load in while enjoying them it tumbles every so often to keep from clothes from wrinkling.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Disappointed Marilyn from Dislike I would not recommend this dryer. Overall, it takes too long to dry the clothes, usually and hour and ten minutes or more! This dryer is inconsistent in drying performance, last night, there was still 50 minutes remaining on the timer yet all of the clothes were dry. A few days ago, when the dryer stopped at the end of the cycle, but the clothes were damp, I restarted it, but minutes later, the dryer ended the cycle again... the clothes were still damp! Worst of all...the clothes come out wrinkled!!! Most items now need ironed that I never used to iron with my old dryer!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Debra33 from Awesome size and drying features So happy with this dryer, just brought it a few weeks ago and it is awesome. The large capacity is wounderful for my comforters, the selection of dryer temps and style of drying makes it worry free for my delicate curtains and hand maid quilts. I purchased the same make of washer about a year and a half ago and love it so there was no question when I needed to purchase a dryer that I would look at the same type as the washer. So happy with both products would highly recommend them to family and friends. Thanks for making such good and dependable products. Now looking to purchase a refrigerator guess what brand!!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Best in class HE Dryer from Whirlpool We purchased this dryer as a set and have nothing but the best to say about it. The 8.8 cu. ft makes it very easy to dry large loads and over-sized items. It's very quiet, has a digital interface and loaded with various options depending on your needs. There is the eco-boost for more energy-savings, sanitize option for extra germ protection for your family, moisture sensing to prevent over drying. The default settings makes it much more simple to dry clothes (no overthinking). It's so smart that it even reminds you to clean out your lint trap before starting a new cycle -- often a part everyone forgets to do!Overall, a great product with a nice black and white contrast and very quiet.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Daddy's MeMe from Good so far, thank GOD! Dear LORD, my fingers have been crossed the entire time of deciding to make this purchase. I went with Whirlpool because they are a reputable company. So far so good with my dryer. I like that it's quiet and senses the loads and adjusts the dryer time while it's running. That impresses me. I have had this dryer a few weeks now, and although it's probably to early to call, I have run a fair amount of dryer loads in this short period of time, and have had no issues. I would recommend this dryer from Whirlpool. Again thank GOD for the experienced intelligent people at Whirlpool.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Jayne the laundry queen from Whirlpool dryer I love my whirlpool gas dryer! I love the extra large drum! I can dry a king size comforter in it with no problem. The entire comforter comes out dry. Not like my old dryer that left the comforter partly damp, my whirlpool dryer is easy to use with the touch pad selections. I also like the check lint filter reminder before selecting my settings. I like the wide range of settings t dry my laundry.the only thing that I would like to see changed is the end cycle beep needs to be louder. My dryer is in the basement and I can't hear the beep when the dryer shut off.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Anonymous from Cavernous Capacity I've owned for about one month . Still learning the characteristics of all different settings but it works great. I ran it empty a couple of times to eliminate the new smell. A couple of larger loads / towels and sheets did twist and came out damp using the sensor setting. I added a little more dryness to setting the next time and that issue was solved. Lint filter very easy to clean. Holds a lot and paired with the 5.3 washer I actually spend less time doing laundry. I've washed a dried a King Comfortor and large sized dog beds ( separate loads ) with no issues.

Rated 4 out of 5 by dh50 from Works well We have had this dryer for several weeks now. It holds a large amount of clothes and drys most loads well (seams on jeans are sometimes still somewhat damp) but, on the whole, a good appliance. With a see through door it is interesting seeing the clothes tumble. It is very quiet. The only down side is that the door latch doesn't have the same solid feel that other dryers have. The latch is on the top corner rather than in the middle and that may be the cause of that feeling. It is heavy. Keep that in mind if you are planning to do your own installation.
