Dries well enough most of the time but not as good as my old dryer that was 30+ years old. If clothes are of a mixed type the buzzer goes off before they are all dry. Also when there are only a couple items they just ride on the over sized wings in the dryer and don't dry.The biggest problem and one I would like to have you take care of is that the filter screen is waffled and the lint scrapes off of parts of it when I pull it out of the dryer. Therefore about half of our lint is falling down into the bottom of the dryer. If I had a filter that was made properly that wouldn't happen. I vacuum the lint that I can reach but most is inaccessible. I think this will eventually cause a problem with the dryer so I would like the filter replaced.
Great dryer. May of the negative comments are purely due to operator error. Read the owners manual especially if your clothes are still a bit damp at the end of a cycle. This dryer rocks!
This dryer does a great job while offering many features. I love the damp dry buzzer and the steam features especially. We are very happy with our decision to purchase this dryer.
My very first dryer was a Whirlpool...it lasted 20 years. For some reason I switched to a different brand(Bosch)...my mistake. It never worked as well and didn't last nearly as long, so this time I went back to Whirlpool. This dryer is great and has a steam Touch Up cycle that is super great! I've showed it to several of my friends and they're anxious to replace their dryers with this one........I would give this product 10 stars if I could!
I was skeptical to purchase this dryer because it's a much updated model & technology than I'm used too, but it has lived up to what claims to provide....quicker and wrinkle free dry. Awesome!
