I bought this about 2 months ago and I love it. There are so many options for types and weight of fabrics that my amount of ironing has decreased by half!!
I am very pleased with this purchase. I can dry my couch slipcovers with no problems. It also lets me know when my clothes have reached damp dry. So I really never over dry my wash. A very nice feature. We live at the beach, so we have a lot of company, I am constantly washing towels and sheets, etc.
Love the sturdy door. Although I don't need the (darkened) window on the door, I appreciate the look of it and if I ever need it, it's there. I love how QUICKLY the clothes dry... and I have Full loads with a family of 5. The lint vent pulls up and back in super smoothly. The dryer is relatively quiet, at least in comparison to my past Kenmore dryer, and rings loudly enough for me to hear above all the family members and their friends often over here. The control panel is smooth and easy to understand. For the first couple weeks, I was actually referring to the manual provided - and found it is clear and charted out well for me (I'm not a machine person really). I started to use the Enhanced Touch Up Steam cycle, but I guess I didn't have enough clothes to steam for it to start so it didn't. I look forward to having more than 4 items to steam and then see how well this function performs. Other things I really love about this dryer is that it 1) It "assesses" the amount of items and their dampness and adjusts the time accordingly. 2) Once the dryer rings off, when I cannot get to it promptly, it revolves a couple more times here and there till I get to it, so it keeps it less wrinkled. and 3) So far the really white interior (that I love so I can see all the items clearly (hated my darker interior with the past dryer)) has stayed scratch free and unmarked (found a ballpoint pen, a rock, and coins so far). I've had this Cabrio Whirlpool dryer for a couple months and so far I have no complaints with the dryer, only with the members putting their non-laundry items in it.
I am thoroughly happy with my platinum dryer. The settings for steam dry are used on daily basis....15 mins and my shirt is wrinkle free! Very quiet dryer, I am very happy with its energy efficiency on its drying sensor controls. great dryer!
