Professional delivery and installation is available for every product we sell. We would be happy to coordinate delivery and installation for you.

Extended warranties are usually very inexpensive and can save you thousands in the future. Some can even cover extra costs that result, such as cost of food that spoils when your fridge dies. It's simple and inexpensive to purchase extended warranties and one of the smartest ways to protect your investment.

Appliances can be large, heavy and expensive. You probably don't have the special tools or expertise needed to fix them in a crisis. If you can spare a few thousand dollars without batting an eyelash for new appliances should they break tomorrow, don't buy a warranty. But if you're like most of us, protect yourself by purchasing inexpensive extended warranties when you buy a new product and save yourself big money in the long run.

Very Disappointed

Joe D. 5/14/2024

I bought this dryer to match the washer we had purchased . It was stainless steel and would match other appliances. The first problem is that no instruction guide was included. Very hard to understand what you have online in reference to operation. Also, it takes way too long to dry items and they still come out damp. When you set a cycle, it will show a dry time of 110 minutes but after 5-10 minutes it drops to 15 minutes than will increase to 20 minutes and then back to 10 minutes. It is "crazy". The "Wrinkle Sheild" if meant to be permanent press is not that good as all items come out wrinkled. I would not recommend this dryer to family or friends and will not buy another myself.

Washer is nice, but Dryer needs some work

TJTheDJ 9/18/2023

Overall love that the washer drum size is huge! Can do 2 loads in 1 compared to old unit we had. Also love the removeable agitator as well. However, the dryer sensor seems to have issues when sensing the clothes are dry or not dry. Currently ours dries clothes for about 20min and then shuts off and says clothes are dry and cycle completed. Therefore, need to usually use the timed dry setting in order to get clothes properly dry in a reasonable amount of time. Wishing they had a fix for their poor sensor, but seems as if everyone else is having the same issue(s) with the sensor in the dryer. Hoping Whirlpool can maybe come up with a fix for it.

Tons of features

Susan23 8/21/2023

There are a great number of settings but the normal dryness setting does not always sense how dry the clothes are as often the clothes are not all dry. I al also concerned about the fold down door as I am afraid we will put too much on it or lean on it and break the door. It should have a door open to the side.

Still working with it

BillM 8/12/2023

We have been using the dryer for a relatively short period of time and still getting acquainted with all the features. At this point we are finding that the sensor when indicating "dry" the load needs additional drying time. Hopefully we can remedy this once we are more familiar with the controls.

Worst dryer I've owned

AustinGuy 6/13/2023

I have owned this dryer for about two months now, as I really wanted to like this dryer and I've kept trying to get it to work. In fact, this is my second one - the first one was sent back because it wouldn't dry very well - it took over 2h to dry a load of clothes. The repairman couldn't determine why. It was making heat, but just not a lot of heat. My current dryer continuously has issues as well. It tells me every load that I need to clean my vent - despite my vent only being about a 6" deep (it vents directly to an external wall). I have cleaned the vent thoroughly, and checked the lint screens - totally clear - yet I still see that error each load of laundry. It is frustrating. The one good thing is that the washing machine totally rocks.

Arrived late and broken

Badproduct 5/30/2023

I ordered a washer and dryer on Apri 1. I was then informed the washer I ordered was no longer in stock, so I had to select a different style. When I did this, it delayed delivery over a month. I finally recieved the washer. Then the dryer delivery was delayed multiple times and I tried to find a different style that could arrive sooner, but nothing was available. I contacted customer support multiple times to get help and to try to get a washer and dryer delivery faster, but they were not really able to do much. Additionally, the scheduled delivery for the dryer was between 8:00am and noon, and they showed up at 8:10am, when I had just stepped out for 5 minutes to take my kids to school (we live less than 2 miles away from the school so I was hurrying to drop them off and get back). The delivery company then said they could ™€œredeliver™€ in two weeks?! I had to call their office and get help to get the delivery made the next day. When my dryer finally arrived (on May 22) it then arrived broken and with parts needed to connect it to the hookups also broken. I contacted whirlpool again and asked for a replacement product, and was told it would take over a month to deliver the new dryer. I ended up just payyng $50 at Home Depot to get the parts I needed to set it up while I wait for the replacement dryer to be delivered, which is scheduled for late June. Overall I will not make any future purchases from Whirlpool. This has been the worst experience buying an appliance I have ever had. I contacted customer service multiple times and they were moderately helpful but really couldn™€™t do much.

Drying clothes like it should. The drum is big but unfortunately, it can't be loaded to full capacity because it says the vent is blocked.

I always seem to have a lot of problems with the washer not getting the clothes clean. There is always a deposit on the clothes. Even the simplest of stains are not removed.

brad 3/5/2021

We bought this in June 2020 and have had nothing but troubles. Four service calls as it would get F3E2 error code. They could never figure out what was wrong after replacing part after part. Finally, Whirlpool agreed to replace....but it has been over 4 weeks and still no dryer! Shame on Whirlpool. Horrid customer service. Id never consider their product again.

This dryer has been a real trooper. We had a competitor dryer that required five visits to try to repair it and they couldn't. The repair technician told us to go get a Whirlpool or a Maytag because they never have to work on them. Best advice I ever listened to.

2 hours minimum to dry 1 load

Buyer's Remorse in MI 1/19/2021

Delivered on Jan. 4 along with matching washer. Nothing but problems with both. From control panel freezing to error messages, this is a nightmare. Requires throwing breaker to reset. Error messages are common. This is a huge energy waster, as it requires hours to dry a load of laundry. Photo shows 1h 47m for a medium load-- which required even more time when that wasn't enough. Bought this to replace 7 year old Whirlpool Duet dryer. I expected increased performance and technology. Not so. This is a huge disappointment. Awaiting response from @WhirlpoolCare.

Looks Good

Mic3245 7/14/2020

I am not very happy with this dryer. I bought a new one because the one I had was using 2 dry cycles to completely dry items. This one is still requiring me to do 2 dry cycles for even less items. I have tried to change the setting to high with more dry time and when the cycles is finished the clothes are still damp and I need to run another cycle. When I made the purchase I bought the matching washer which I still haven™€™t got. They were ordered (special order) and the dryer was here in 2 weeks and the washer won™€™t be here until August. When ordered I was told the washer would actually be here before the dryer. Still waiting....with no clear answer from Lowe™€™s or the manufacturer on what happened.
