Have had nothing but problems with this dryer. Just over a year old and does not work well at all. Vent light comes on all the time. I take apart everything and there is no blockage, have air flow and good combustion in gas chamber. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. Have the washer too, and same thing. GARBAGE! I am a licensed plumber and cannot believe I bought such a poor product. I will never buy another whirlpool product again. Throwing these hunks of junk to the scrapyard. I think that it is with sensors and cheap parts by manufacturer and don’t have time and not spending money to repair with BOTH being pretty new. It’s obviously junk, look online and you will see same issue from thousands others. Ya lost my business Whirlpool!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We bought the Cabrio washer and dryer as a set 22 months ago. The washer constantly goes off balance when washing towels or 1 set of sheets and the dryer just went out - won't heat. Looks like we will be calling a service repairman again! I wouldn't spend my money on this brand. This is my 5th set in my 40 years of owning a home. Very sad Whirlpool!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this 2 months ago when my old dryer died. It's a good dryer but it takes a long time to dry. The normal setting says 38 minutes, but sometimes I go back downstairs 20 minutes later and it says there's still 32 minutes left. And that's not a huge load. My last dryer was 19 years old and worked a lot faster. They just don't make them like they used to anymore. But, at the end of the day, it gets the job done.
My beautiful red Whirlpool dryer has saved me time and money in only a few short uses. I love the eco monitor, the fact that this machine knows how long it will take to dry my clothes. My old dryer I would tack on an extra 20 minutes, not with this one! I could go on and on, but having a steam feature, yep, that's the best feature for me!
it does the job good. only compliant is the sensor not working too good. sometime cloth is still damped it stop drying. I always set another 15min drying manually after the first senor drying.
