Great dryer. But I’ve changed my mind

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Update— this dryer is crap! 6 weeks old and need a new control panel. Service center can’t get the part had to come directly from whirlpool. Been waiting 2 weeks! Should have kept my old dryer We bought this dryer in October and so far have been pleased. It drys well and I’m able to do get my big things in. Two things I miss from my old dryer are a timer and the lint trap being inside the drum of the dryer. I find with it being on the top lint gets all over the place when I pull it out. It’s easily cleaned up but it’s just a feature from my old dryer that I liked better. I also liked being able to take a peek into the laundry room to see about how much time was left in the cycle. Neither are deal breakers and I’m happy with our purchase. Our last washer/dryer was a whirlpool and lasted 20 plus years. Hoping for the same with this I e
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My family has always trusted Whirlpool products, they work great, easy to use and understand, small loads to large loads everything comes out dry. Worth every penny.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I hope that it lasts longer than 8 years.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have only had the dryer for a week. It's working fine so far. Contact me in 8 years to see if the heating unit has worn out like the last Whirlpool dryer I had. It seems that you could make the dryer components more robust so we aren't filling up landfills with dryers. Engineer dryers to last for 20 years instead of 8.

Don't buy. Money wasted. Whirlpool doesn't help.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this dryer less than a month ago and the clean vent light is coming on everytime I use the dryer. Everything has been cleaned out and there was nothing in it. The light doesn't come on at a certain time when it is drying. A technician was sent out to check it and he was here 15 minutes. Ran the dryer maybe 10 minutes. The light didn't come on. He reported that the dryer was working as it should and Whirlpool isn't wanting to do anything about it or help in any way. If he had stayed and seen the light come on what would he have done then. Never again will I buy another Whirlpool appliance. All the technician did was pull it away from the wall some and see if it was blowing air out the vent. I am very upset with Whirlpool. Thought they stood behind their appliances. Was also told that they do not replace an appliance that is not working right. So now I wait for it to just quit working and I paid good money for nothing.
Response from whirlpool.comBy Branded Team, Consumer Care, December 12, 2025
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We regret that you are having these concerns with your Dryer. The "Check Vent" indicator (or AF error code) signals restricted airflow, a critical safety and performance issue, active only during Automatic Cycles.
How it Works: The dryer senses airflow at the start of an automatic cycle. If restricted airflow or a blocked vent is detected, the "Check Vent" light illuminates and remains on until the cycle ends, the Power button is touched, or the door is opened. The light will persist in subsequent cycles until the root cause is fixed. Restricted airflow causes long dry times, excessive energy use, and a potential fire hazard.
Troubleshooting Steps: Clear the Display Code: Touch any key if an AF code is on the screen. Clean the Lint Screen: Clean the screen before every load, ensuring no residue buildup. Inspect Behind the Dryer: Pull the dryer out. Check that the flexible vent is not crushed, kinked, or bent and is free of lint. Check External Exhaust: Run a heated cycle. Go outside and verify the airflow from the vent cap is strong (like a hair dryer on high). If weak, the entire system is clogged. Clean all lint and ensure the exhaust flaps open fully. Review Installation: Consult the Installation Instructions. Confirm the vent system's length and number of elbows are within the manufacturer's maximum recommendations. Final Test/Professional Help: If the message persists, run a Timed Dry cycle. If the issue remains, contact a qualified venting specialist or HVAC professional for a thorough cleaning. A specialized dryer vent test kit (part #W11224254) is available for accurate diagnostic testing of vent restrictions. To order, contact Customer Service.
