Our 1st gas dryer

We had talked about this for years and when the time came to change dryers I was curious about how the gas dryer would compare to electric. We have a lot of trust in whirlpool as a brand so we chose this model and right away here is what we noticed. The dryer is quieter and dries the clothing much faster than we have seen with our other dryers. Another beneficial thing I've noticed is that the laundry room itself doesn't heat up when the dryer is running. This last thing may not seem like a big deal but our air conditioner will not have to work as hard to cool the house next summer.

Like the dryer and all of its features. Intuitive controls and efficient operation are all a plus. Have owned dryer for two months so durability is still an unknown. Old dryer lasted 14 years with no problems. Hopefully, this dryer will perform as well.
My wife and I got what we could out of our old washer and dryer and needed to replace them. I am the type to do exhaustive research which I did when looking at a new laundry set. I read reviews and spoke with store sales people and friends with newer laundry machines. The key drivers that I used to make the decision were manufacturer's reputation for quality/reliability, feature set to provide the results we needed and how much product we were getting for the price. The "Made In The USA" part was an added bonus of course. We have now had the dryer (and related HE Cabrio washing machine) for about 2 months and we are both very satisfied. It has enough newer technology to make this a very efficient machine without requiring a PhD to operate it. And the operation is certainly quiet enough - much better than what we replaced and on par with others we considered. And the lint trap is very easy to access and clean. So far, so good and I don't expect this experience to change. We are very satisfied customers and would repeat the decision to purchase this dryer again (along with the washing machine we purchased.)
