Purchased this dryer and matching washer to replace our 21 year old Maytag set.
We like the simple controls. We looked at front loader models, but didn't like the front load washers. We choose this set instead.
The large fold down door and inside light make getting clothes out simple. The drum is big and holds a lot more clothes than our old unit.
We have almost twice as much pressure coming out the exhaust vent outside as our old one. Definitely has more power.
Best Buy - The Good - 18 month no interest financing, free delivery,and free haul away of old washer and dryer. Price paid $433.49.
The Other - I was given a 4 hour delivery window. I prefer a tighter time frame as to not waste 1/2 the day away. I also chose to hook up the dryer myself instead of paying $140.00.
Overall, a good machine and service.
What's great about it: Wide Door Opening, Light Inside
What's not so great: None
I would recommend this to a friend!

I love the maching Whirlpool Washer
Model: WTW5700SW SKU: 8108451...the dryer, well, that's another story.
I'm not really complaining that much about this inexpensive dryer, because the price I got for both the washer & dryer was a steal! What I like about the dryer in the flip open top. The HUGE capacity size. I did about 27 loads the first two days I owed this set and the dryer took a long time to actually dry my clothes (drying on the timed 5-70 minutes). Perhaps this was because it was new--but it was kinda frustrating. Then I discovered that if I put all of my clothes on the Jean cycle--they get dry in a timely manner.
What I Love About the Whirlpool WED5700 Dryer:
The Winkle Shield (it REALLY REALY does work and my clothes--even jeans and everything come out with way less wrinkles and is saving me time in some ironing work)
The light inside the dryer
The link screen on the top (I'm getting used to it and I like it now, at first I didn't)
The buzzer to let me know when the clothes are ready and which I can turn on and off.
It looks really nice too
It's pretty quiet, considering the dirt cheap price I paid for it.
What I DON'T Like About the WED5700:
We've had this dryer for about 2 weeks now, and I think it's working out better (drying my clothes faster/better). It took a few days for it really get my clothes super dry.
My dark towels and darks, would have lint still on them (I didn't like that, but again, it's getting better with time).
I has a ton of features and is SUPER easy to use.
I'm rating it 4 stars because of the incredibly good price I got it for, If I had to pay more than say $400.00 I would rate it 3 stars.
What's great about it: lots of features I love, flip down top, huge capacity, good looking, paid a super low price
What's not so great: it takes forever to dry on the regular cycle-on the jean cycle it's working fine
I would recommend this to a friend!
