I recently visited friends who had a 9 y/o Whirlpool dryer. Lots of jeans washed in that house. It had a pretty blue color to the drum bulkhead, drum, as well as the dryer door where things would tumble against it. I thought of Toggle immediately and kinda got queasy in my tummy too. Thus far my 1994 Maytag DC dryer looks almost new inside, but I only wash/dry jeans about once a month or so, mostly winter time and about every 6-8 weeks in the summer.

Powder-Coat staining is so common with these machines. I love the big drums but I always thought crawling up onto the door to reach the deepest recesses of the drum was a bit of a pain - especially in a small laundry room. I recently picked up a KitchenAid dryer with the side-swing door (only a small amount of indigo staining on the white drum) and it was really nice to have the door out of the way...

My mother has this same Whirlpool dryer she bought almost 2 years ago. It's a very good dryer. She was going to buy the matching washer after her 10 year old direct drive Whirlpool went with a bad transmission. But we discussed it and last year she went for the Frigidaire FL with the square door. She likes it and is glad to have a front loader now. With a full load of clothes from the Frigidaire the Whirlpool will dry it completely in about 35 minutes. She has the gas version and it's a real performer. Peter |
