WHIRLPOOL WED560LHW front load electric dryer

We have been using this dryer for about 6 months. The heat pump uses about 1.1 KW a fraction of what a regular electric dryer uses. Dries at a lower temperature so it will take about 50% longer as compared to a regular dryer set to high heat. However, we always used the lowest heat setting on our old dryer so this one has similar dry times to what we were used to and no scorched cloths. Ventless dryer returns all of the electrical energy used back into living space so free heat gain in winter and does not vent warm inside air outside so the furnace doesn't need to heat the cold makeup air that comes in to replace the air vented outside. Double energy gain! Part of our net-zero energy solar home and this saves a lot of electricity for us. I estimate in the overall energy picture uses about 1/4 the energy in the heating season and worst-case uses about 1/2 when the AC is on in the summer. You do have two lint filters to clean but that is part of all ventless recirculation dryers. We have always found Whirlpool warranty service excellent over the years but have not had any issues with this appliance since it has worked perfectly so far but we know it is there if we need it. Great energy-saving product- Get over the slightly longer drying time and two lint filters to clean- well worth it.

I have this dryer for the last two years and I am really happy about the results. Some reviews have complaints about clothes not being fully dry but this is not the case for me. I always set the drying to a time cycle of 2.5 hours and everything is always dry!!!. Yes takes way longer to dry but the electrical consumption is way lower compared to a traditional dryer. I am not going back to a traditional dryer after using this technology.
