[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m unhappy with the check Vent light being on with every dayer load since it’s been professionally installed!
Your telling us since day one to call a repair person a day after getting a NEW Appliance is unacceptable!

Response from whirlpool.comBy Branded Team, Consumer Care, January 27, 2026
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.

We’re looking forward to hearing from you.

Dries quickly, but loud.
on January 25, 2026
Posted by: Makani
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this dryer about a month. It dries quickly compared to my old one. It's loud, though. I have to close the laundry room door. Also, I noticed that not very much lint is on the screen. I'm not sure if that's good or bad?

Just what I needed

from Mesa, Arizona
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] There are a lot of options when looking for a dryer out there. I was on a tight budget so I didn’t want to spend a lot of money and pay for a bunch of bells and whistles that I would probably never use. Then I found this dryer and the price was great, while still having just the right amount of features, not too many, but plenty of useful ones. I always buy Whirlpool because they have been the most reliable appliances for me and so far this dryer did not disappoint.
I would recommend this to a friend!
