                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been able to use the dryer for maybe 5 or 6 loads now and are very happy with it! Our new machines are larger than our previous ones. The dryer is quiet and has great features.

                        DO NOT BUY THIS UNLESS YOU’RE EXPERIENCED
                        We bought this on 8/29/2023 and it was delivered on 9/1/2023. We had no problems with it until September 2024 when my daughter went to use the sanitize button and it frozen the electric panel. Thankfully my husband is a mechanic and ordered a new electric panel, which cost nearly half what we paid for the dryer. He replaced it and it ran great. A note, the electric panel is now discontinued. Hasn’t been a year yet with the new electric panel and I went to use the sanitize function for the first time and now the dryer won’t work. Based on my husband’s research, this dryer has a lot of electrical problems. I’m assuming that’s why the electric panel replacement has been discontinued. I do not recommend this product to anymore and whirlpool should’ve stopped selling this dryer.

                            Extremely quiet!

                              Solid feature options and works great.
                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We bought this and its companion washer with a Black Friday deal. It replaces a 20 year old (!) Kenmore Elite that we felt was probably on borrowed time. We love it so far. It’s a little taller than my previous setup but at 5’2” and the shortest in the house I can manage to see the top controls. It is quiet and works great with plenty of options. We didn’t want a unit with Wi-Fi as it would just be something else to break. Now let’s cross our fingers this one lasts as long as the one we just replaced.

It was easy for my plumber to instal and I live the steam function. I recently recommended to my plumber brother and he just made the purchase and is delighted.
