AccuDry™ Sensor Drying System Evenly dry loads the first time with the AccuDry™ sensor drying system. It measures moisture and temperature levels with two built-in sensors to help prevent overdrying and automatically stop the cycle when the load is dry.

Wrinkle Shield™ Option Helps prevent wrinkles from setting in by continuing to tumble the load every 5 minutes after the cycle is complete. Either designate how long the feature tumbles the load, or easily open the door to end it.

Hamper Door Easily move clothes from the washer to the dryer with the help of our hamper door. This feature also is great for when it's time to sort and fold your laundry.

7.0 Cu. Ft. Capacity With a 7.0 cu. ft. capacity dryer drum, there's plenty of room to easily handle the large loads you washed in the matching top load washer.

Adjustable End-of-Cycle Signal Avoid leaving items in the dryer with the adjustable end-of-cycle signal. Thanks to a helpful tone, you'll know when your dry cycle is finished. You can even adjust the volume if you'd like, or completely turn it off.

Interior Drum Light The interior drum light helps with easy loading and unloading by allowing you to better see the inside of the dryer.

Designed, Engineered and Assembled in the U.S.A. These dryers are built with American Pride and designed, engineered and assembled in the U.S.A.

Fan of WHIRLPOOL

Carl2 11/22/2019

I have purchased Whirpool appliances for the past 40+ years. This 2 month old gas dryer replaced a 40 year old Whirlpool gas dryer which needed a couple of repairs (replaced motor, burner and belts) over the years, but my wife and I decided to treat ourselves to a new dryer - Whirlpool of course. We're happy with it.

Best Gas Dryer ever!

Janet31 11/1/2019

My 31 year old Whirlpool Gas Dryer finally gave up the ghost and I replaced it 2 months ago. Don't know why I waited so long. My new Whirlpool has so many wonderful features; large lighted drum, timed drying, preferred drying , settings for thick, heavy items, normal, and delicate and the Wrinkle Shield Plus (which is nice when I can't get to hanging & folding clothes right away.) Love my new Whirlpool!!!

Product Good but Customer Service Horrible

Babyfay53 10/10/2019

I bought this 9-24-19, was delivered on 10-2-19and installed by Home Depot employees. Contacted store on 10-7-19 about issues with gas dryer and request was totally ignored. Explained I have an invalid husband on oxygen in home and concerned about our well-being if dryer is not installed properly. My next call will be to the State Attorney General to file a complaint

Love my dryer

Cherub 10/2/2019

We recently purchased the dryer and it works great. Clothes dry quickly. I'm very satisfied with my purchase. The only flaw in my opinion is the knob is a little stuff to turn. There are not tons of options on this model but if you want a classic appliance this is perfect for you.

The controls are simple enough that it is easy to see what the different features are and adapt them for different types of loads. I like the hamper door - makes it easy to put clothes in from the washer. The automatic sensor works well too.

Just What We Needed

Fritz5412 9/20/2019

I knew this is what I wanted. We had this same dryer in our previous home. It is a work horse. I did not need all the bells and whistles. I never used my dryer for more than a few heat settings. This dryer does it all from delicates to comforters.

Sheilasomebody 9/16/2019

The dryer works well. It has several settings, we I always use the same one. I purchased this one because it is available as a single appliance vs. a washer and dryer pair. My washer works fine. I don't believe in replacing appliances just for the appearance.

My old dryer died after 30-some years and I wanted something just as durable. This dryer dries a big load quickly. Has a lighted interior! and is very easy to use. I bought this one without even seeing it in person. But checked Consumer Reports rating.
