[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought the dryer when my old one went out. I had had it for a very long time. I am very happy with the new one.

Long drying time
on January 10, 2026
Posted by: noname
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this a month ago and am not totally happy. It seems to take sooooo long to dry my clothes. I had the towels in for over an hour and they were still damp. I clean out the lint holder faithfully each use. It was installed by the driver so I don't know what the problem is
Response from whirlpool.comBy Branded Team, Consumer Care, January 12, 2026
Hello,
We value your time and would like to look into the concerns with your Dryer.
Damp or wet clothes after a dry cycle usually indicate issues with airflow, cycle selection, or installation, often not a dryer malfunction.
1. Clean the Lint Screen: Mandatory: Clean the lint screen after every use. A clogged screen blocks airflow, extends drying time, wastes energy, and is a fire hazard. Wash the screen with soapy water if fabric softener residue builds up.
2. Check for AF/Check Vent Codes: Modern dryers signal venting restrictions with "AF" or "Check Vent" lights on some models.
3. Test Exterior Airflow:
Run the dryer on heat for 5–10 minutes.
Check the exterior exhaust hood.
Assessment: Airflow should be strong (like a hair dryer on high).
Action: Weak flow means a clogged vent line that requires thorough cleaning from the dryer to the exterior.
4. Clean the Home Venting Line: Long drying times with adequate heat strongly suggest a vent restriction.
Maintenance: Clean the entire vent system every 1-2 years, or immediately if performance drops.
Benefits: Reduces drying time and energy cost, increases airflow, and dramatically lowers the fire risk.
Tools: Whirlpool Dryer Vent Testing Kit (Part #W11224254) for proactive assessment. Contact Whirlpool for order.
Cycle Selection and Settings
Improper settings frequently cause dampness.
1. Use Automatic Cycles: Always use automatic, sensor-based cycles (Normal, Heavy Duty) for efficiency. They shut off when dry.
If Damp: Select a "More Dry" or "High Temperature" setting.
Timed Cycles: Only use for small, single, or lightly damp items. Avoid overloading.
2. Avoid Steam Cycles for Drying: Steam cycles (Wrinkle Release, Steam Refresh) introduce moisture to relax wrinkles and remove odors from already dry clothes. They are not a primary drying method and can leave small, light loads feeling damp due to condensation.
Is the Dryer Level? An unleveled dryer prevents clothes from consistently contacting the moisture sensors inside the drum, causing misreadings, premature shutoff, and damp clothes.
If you need additional assistance, please reach out to us directly via Facebook https://www.facebook.com/whirlpoolusa/ or Instagram https://www.instagram.com/whirlpoolusa/. When responding, please include your contact information and reference Case # 899359
We’re looking forward to hearing from you.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Dryer works okay, but is quite loud. Also, didn't completely dry towels even after 45 minute.

I like the dryer light, and top opening door.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The check vent feature sometimes lights up, and I check the vent for lint and none or very little is there. This happens more frequently soon after I have first started the unit. After I turn dryer off and check vent it will normally finish the cycle without lighting up again. I don't know if this is a safety feature or what. The owner's manual really doesn't address this in troubleshooting. Also, the end cycle tone or beep sometimes doesn't sound. I don't know if it is supposed to signal after every cycle no matter which one I am using. The manual says I can mut the beep, but I do not do this, so I don't know why it doesn't sound after each cycle finishes. The owner's manual again doesn't really address this issue either. The manuals could have been more informational.
