7.4 cu. ft. Top Load Gas Dryer with Intuitive Controls
Model # WGD5100HC

Product Details
AccuDry™ sensor drying technology
- Two built-in sensors measure moisture and temperature levels to help prevent overdrying and automatically stop the cycle when the load is dry.
- Let the dryer guide you to the right cycle combinations or customize up to 35 of your own to get the right type of fabric care for whatever you’re drying.
- Help keep wrinkles from setting into clean, dry fabrics with the Wrinkle Shield™ option. It keeps clothes tumbling for up to 150 minutes after the cycle ends or until you open the door.
- Use less energy while still getting great drying performance with the EcoBoost™ option that uses less heat and extended cycle times for greater energy efficiency.
- The Sanitize cycle provides care for your clothes in the dryer while eliminating 99.9% of common household bacteria.
- Dry a small load quickly or customize settings to add more time. Plus, you can choose to remember your settings for your next load of laundry.
- With a 7.4 cu. ft. capacity dryer drum, there’s plenty of room to easily handle the large loads you washed in the matching top load washer.
- Easily transfer loads from the washer to the dryer and from the dryer to the laundry basket without worrying about clean clothes falling on the floor with this wide-opening door.
- Whirlpool Corporation started in 1911 as a small company in Benton Harbor, Michigan. Today we are a global home appliance business selling products around the world. We are proud of our American heritage and ingenuity that have driven innovation for over 100 years.
